Fatherland Ready to Meei
: Trade War Of Allies When !
War of Arms Is Over.
MANY SHIPS BEING hJIL1

Washington, Sept. 8.-Germanyt
plans for rehabilitating its foreign and
domestic trade are not being made
without regard for the trade war its
enemies propose to wage when the
armed conflict is ended. Official dis.
patches today make it certain that the
allied trade drive will be met with
the active competition Of Germany
While industrial Germany is reported
as regarding lightly the threat of
trade war there are many evidences
Of the physical preparations being
made to resist it.
: Large numbers of freight and pas
senger ships are being built, the re-
ports say, and plans are being made
on an immense scale to re-equip man
ufacturing plants with machinery OF
maximum efficiency. One effect of the
war, as seen in Germany, has been to
improve processes and cheaper pro-
duction. Women pressed into service,
as factory machine operatives to
meet drafts of men for the battle
fronts are reported to have shown
themselves much more efficient and
themselves much more Efficient and
have increased the productiveness of
but in the interest of the
general welfare it will not be the pol
icy to keep them in factories during
times of peace. The government
counts, however, upon the influence
which the record of the women will
have upon the men returning to
peaceful pursuits.
Wide publicity recently has been
given in Germany, the reports say, to
a combination of several leading dye
stuff and chemical concerns IN the in
terest of better equipment and in
creased efficiency to meet. the new
commercial competition.
