Denmark Is becoming an increasing

goods exported from the United States,
and the possibilities for American
trade with Denmark are great, accord
tng to Edward d. Winslow, American
consul general W Copenhagen. 1T is
significant" he said, shat American
goods going to Russia, Germany and
Austria are passing through Danish
ports. The Danes now claim that Co

ed other ports having free harbOrs as
a continental distributing center. be-
lieve this port will be able to hold its
advantage when peace comes. Goods
can be transshipped from here to all
ports of the world, as cheaply and as
expeditiously as from any other Eu-
ropean port especially II the final des-
tination be Norway, Sweden. Finland
and the Germanic Baltic ports. There
are no hindrances to the establishment
of agencies by Americans In Denmark.
