ficial analysis of foreign t ratio Is
sued today by tho partment of com
merce, "the exports of manufactures:
of all kinds, other than foodstuffs,
have been loss tnun In tho similar
period boforo tho war."
Tho statement refers to tho for
eign trade for ten mouths ended in
April, which shows n trado balanco
of almost a billion dollars.
The normal bhIoh or manufactures
during peace, statement Bays, "weio
gt eater than thoso under existing

mid extraordinary shrinkage of ex
ports of crude materials, It is found
that tho net Increase In our total ex

One of tho outstanding font urns or
