In accordance with your request, we have searched the
back files of Zeitschrift fur Geopolitik and the numbers back to 
the last war of the principal bibliographies. While we have many 
general references to German aspirations in the New World, only 
one published map has been found, prior to the last few months. 
That was in Otto Richard Tannenberg's Grossdeutschland, published 
in 1911. I enclose photostat of Tannenberg's map which appears on 
page 255.
 
 
After 1911 there is a gap in our findings until the
publication of a map in the New York Daily Mirror for August 25, 
1941, said to be identical with maps found in a raid on a German 
welfare association headquarters in Rosario, Argentina on August 
1st. This map was reprinted after the President's talk, on October 
3Oth. Photostats of the map and accompanying text were sent you 
on Saturday. The only other map is that published in PM on the
day following the President's Navy Day talk.
