M. —The business situation iu Ger many is regarded as fairly satisfactory and considerably better than might have been expected in view of the war. All industries, of course, aro running on a restricted scale, chiefly because of the virtual cessation of overseas ex ports but as a large proportion of the skilled workmen went into the army the sharp curtailment in production was not attended by a corresponding increase iu unemployment. More women and girls are seeking work iu some branches of industry than can find employment but this is far from being the case with the men. On the contrary the leading industries of the country are seriously embarrassed bv the scarcity ot" skilled workmen. This is true of the coal and irou trade, shipbuilding l»nd certain sections of the chemical industry. A Scarcity of Workmen A pronounced scarcity of workmen is reported from the great industrial district about Essen. The deman i for although its export has been prohibited, although its export ras been prohibited. Last month conditions in the iron trade were reflected by an advance in prices. The production of pig iron, running about i>. r > per cent, of last year, would be still larger it' the neces sary labor could be obtained. Many branches of machinery manufacture, an important branch of German industrial activity, are working full time or over time but here also a scarcity of work men is felt. Ijocomotive car shops are busy while ship yards evidently are working on big government ov iers. Two compa nies have stated in their annual reports that they have work on hand to last until 1916 and complain of a lack of help. Ban on Potash Exports The export of potash was forbidden two months ago because of the belief j that exports to neutral countries were ! used to manufacture explosive for ! France and Kngland. The prohibition I resulted in a sharp«contraction in this ; trade especially with the I'nited States, i Mine owners are seeking government | permission to increase the price to com i pensate them for their loss. Textile factories engaged in turning J out the cheaper lines of goods are ! hampered by a shortage of raw ma ' terial. The import of wool has vir | tually ceased and woolen rags are in great demand for the making of shod dy. Some mills have taken to spin ning shoddy yards. Inadequate receipts of American cotton have raised the prices of cotton vurds and cloth. Weav ers are trying to place long contracts for yarns believing prices will go higher. Silk Trade Fairly Well The silk trade is doing fairly well, good sized American orders resulting in higher raw silk prices. The lftieu trade is hampered by a lack of flax which comes from Russia. Bavarian peasants are planning to devote con siderable land to this hitherto neglect ed crop. The retail trade is active only in ar ticles of necessity as luxuries have been very largely dispensed with. Dress makers are less pressed with spring or ders than is usual. Cigars and choco lates are iu good demand', as they are extensively used for gifts to soldiers at the front. Some book music publish ers report that their sales are good. Farmers are among the busiest peo ple in the empire for the task of re plenishing the food supply devolves upon them and they will have to accom- ( plish it with a diminished number of laborers. Conditions have been ma- i teriallv alleviated by the transfer of i city industrial workers to the country.! It is reported that the usual acreage j of grain will be planted and prepara-1 tions are being made on a large scale j for spring and summer work.
