German Dyes After the War.
German dyemakers realise now that the warhas made their future very insecure. The presidentof the Friedrich Bayer Aniline Dyeworks Company, according to s report which reached Router's correspondent at Am- told the sterdam, recently, shareholders that "the Gar- man dyeworks and chemical factories will have to fight bard for foreign trade after the war, as both the enemy and neutrals are making the greatest efforts. during the war to supplant. Gere many in these industries abroad." That the Germans will: "fight hard" in this matter we do not doubt. They will offer choice dyes and other chemical products at very low prices and tell plausible tales of the friendship which they have been obliged to canceal for the last three years; but there is a reason, not depend- ing upon sentiment, which we think will make it impossible for Them to succeed to any marked extent. The Governments of the world may ог
may not be indifferent as to the fate of their textile industries, which depend so largely upon dyes, but they do not usually underrate national defence. and they understand now what it means to have chemical and dye works available for the manufacture... of explosives at short notice. That will settle the issue,

It has been a most unsatisfactory one. Common grades have been pretty well cleared off the market, and stocks of these kinds are now in very small compass.
