Vast Total of Exports in Past Fiscal Year-Reconstruction Gives

Production Costs Increase in Europe.
Washlncton. Ments, cotton, wheat
and wheat flour made up 70 per cent
of the total export trade In agricul
tural products during the flsAl year
ending June 30. 1019. The total value
of agricultural exports was swu.
033,924. This amount of agricultural
exports exceeded by more than $000,
000,000 the total Imports of all prod

figures for pre-war years, the total ex
ports of all products for the United
States in 1914 being $2,3LO.GS4.025.
Increase Due to War.
"This Increase lu foreign commerce

An Important and as yet indeter
minable factor in foreign trade during
the coming months is the result of the
"produce more and consume less"
campaign being waged In Europe. If
the campaign meets with j;'"""1 re

of substitutes, less rapid return to nor
mal consumption, and a decreased de
mand for American products.
Trior to the war the United States
enjoyed a foreign market rather than
a foreign trade. lSuyers came to tho
American markets, established credits
with American banks, bought and paid
for our products, contracted for ship

Oiler in Western Mill
Stripped by Shafting
Vina, Nev. With every stitch
of clothing stripped from his
body, O. W. Pearl, an oiler, em
ployed In the mill of tho Olym
pic Alines company, was picked
up from tho floor of the mill by
fellow employees and found to
have Buffered no serious Injury,
despite tho fact that ho was
whirled around a rapidly mov
ing shafting several times.
l'earl was oiling the line shaft
Ing In the mill when his cloth
ing was entangled In a net
screw on tho shafting. The
clothing held fast for a few sec
onds and ho was pulled onto
the shafting and whirled around.
How many times ho went
around he could not tell, but
when his clothes finally ' gave
way he was shot to the floor of
the mill and had nothing on but
his shoes.
He hns a few bruises to show
for his experience.

out of the channels of privnte trade;
the extension of credits by the United
States government to the allies and
ether European countries, amounting
to approximately $10,000,000,000; the
assembling of all inland nn' ocean
transportation and communication fa
cilities ; and the distribution of food
stuffs through central organizations,
such as the Interallied food commis
sion." Belligerent countries sustained by
credits from the United States had
made extensive contracts for food sup
plies, and upon the release of ship

a heavy movement of foodstuffs re
sulted. These contracts are about com
plete, the credits extended by the
United States have been expended, and
the crux of reconstruction has arrived ;
trade must return to the private chan
nels of finance, shipping, and barter,
and the question of our future foreign
commerce is important. The war has
left the vorld In a complicated polit
ical, economical, industrial, and social
situation, and few statesmen or econ-

basis of New Tork or American sea
board, and required only a very lim
ited knowledge of the factors of for
eign trade on the part of the Ameri
can vendor. In only a limited way
can It be said that American trade
has heretofore penetrated foreign
markets.
Perhaps the greatest single factor
In our future foreign trade in agricul
tural , products Is tiie American mer
chant marine. On June 30, 1014, the
merchant marine of the United King
dom totaled 20,10O.O(X) gross ton, arid
that of the United States 1,875,000
gross tons. On August 1, 11)10. the
American merchant marine totaled
8,100,400 gross tons, the total number
of vessels being 12,737, which includ
ed 1,071 new steamers, Jj8 ex-Cormnn
ships, and six ex-Austrian ships.
Production Costs Increased In Europe.
The cost of production in European
countries will be Increased over the
pre-war period because of the change
In labor conditions. Iu the matter of
machinery and etliclent methods of
roductlon, America may he counted
I upon to keep wi ll apace. The cost of

creased shipping and bunking facll-
ities, as compared with pre-war com
petition conditions, greatly favor me

eign trade Is the unsolved problem of
foreign credit.
At the rates of exchange prevailing
October 0, 1919, a bushel of wheat

abroad, would be worth abroad the
equivalent of $2.74 In Hrlllsh money,
$3.83 In French money. $1.43 In Ital
ian money, nnd $13.47 In Oermnn
money. If the depreciation of Kuro
pean moneys continues, or the rate of
exchange becomes more abnormal, It
will probably restrict Imports not only
of bread cereals, but also of other
commodities, to the bare necessities,
and will constitute a powerful stim
ulus In foreign countries to increase
production.

HERE'S NEW INDUSTRIAL MIX
Germans Insist on Holiday Work,
Then Strike When Troops
Arrive.
Ileriin. 1'ossibly the stnucost de
velopment yet found In the German
industrial situation lias appeared at
the aniline dye works, located at Wolf
en, near Holle.
Workers there demanded the privi
lege of remaining nt their posts on
German Memorial day, and when the
firm refused to permit this the -.ork-men
to the number of 400 forced their
way into the office of the director and
compelled him to keep the plant open.
Gustav Noske, minister of defense,
fearing trouble, .sent a brigade of
troops to Wolfen, whereupon the work
ers struck because of the fact that
martial law was Imposed by the pres
ence of the troops.
Employees of the electric plant at
Ritterfleld, near Wolfen, which sup
plies Berlin with current, have struck
in sympathy with the men at Wolfen,
so that Berlin is threatened with loss
of her electric supply. Martini law In
the district has been ordered by the
authority of President Kbeit and Min
ister Noske.

Fires
Lnon, France. Jiesidenls of the dev
astated disiricts of France nre still
fleeing from bursts of shell and shrap
nel. The new menace Is caused by
small fires, which frequently set off
the shells that have been piled up.
In the desolate fields thousands of
unexploded shells have been picked
up by German prisoners, ana, though
there are details hauling thorn away
and exploding them In remote valleys
every day, there are still long ranks
of them everywhere.
Sparks from locomotives nnd from
small fires, where battlefield rubbish
Is being burned, occasionally set fire
to patches of dry weeds, and tho ac
