Tn discussing the volume of Ore gon's exports. Waterbury pointed out that the depression In this state might be well attributed to the slump In foreign markets, as evidenced by the furl that the 1033 export total was only approximately twenty per cent oi tne volume in leas. New trade agreements, however, give promise of continued improvement. Of special Interest to southern Ore gon people, were the export figures on fruit, given by Waterbury. Depression time shipments of apples were even greater than previous ycara, although netting leas return. The shipment of pears has been more favorable, due to trade agreements with Prance and other iropejin countries. Mr. Waterbury discussed In detail the status of foreign trade before, during and after the World war when the United States assumed the role of a creditor nation. At the end of thp orgy of buying In 1929, trade bar riers were set up by thle country, and other countries retaliated. Now the administration Is endeavoring to Improve conditions through special concession trade agreements. Such agreements hsve already been com pleted with 18 nations. Cuba being the first. Sweden, a country In plen d!d financial condition At this time, should present a good market for Rogue River Valley fruit, according to Waterbury. The speaker concluded with a brief discussion of the much discussed Russian situation, and pointed out that already this year private and public Interests have purchased in excess of twenty-five million dollars worth of American products. The new ly completed agreement with Russia calls for a volume of thirty million dollar during 1035, and Indications are that thla total will be exceeded by a substantial figure.
