U.S. LEADS THEWORLD EXPORT TRADE Manufacturers Have Much to Learn Concerning Foreign Trade WASHINGTON. D. C The Unit ed Stales l today the world larg est lumber exporter. Ia discussing oar methods of. salesmanship for eiport lumber, the Lumber Section of the Departmea of Commerce says: Different from, most other coun- we have a great variety of! tailed at a premium aboard. tries. woods which we export and the number uf exporters Is also much larger no doubt owing to the fact that the domestic business is of major Importance, and the foreign lumber trade is carried ou by most concerns as a sideline. This Is an unfortunate condition. It wuld be lar better If our foreign trade were handled by special experts in this line and from our domestic trade. If this were the case competition would not be to ruinous and our ales efforts In the foreign field would be more intelligent. We have number of first class exporters who understand foreign market conditions, but unfortunately the great majority of the firms en gaged In the lumber export trade today are not well posted ou tie international lumber trade as a whole, although some of them may have special knowledge of one or few foreign markets. We aave nearly all the advantag es necessary to carry on a profitable foreign trade in lumber. Our lum ber shows a large percentage of clear stack and large dimensions, and "there is a wood for . every use." One would naturally believe that full advantage had been taken of these conditions, but such unfor-1 tUnatPlV hfl Tint Kaa. 1,A ...... -! .... . it an ana it is a lalse Idea that Most of our exporters accept sped-1 business can be stimulated b-- shin- f ii-n ti in 1 m ....

If the same older were submitted to a North Kuropeaa exporter It would not be filled except at a very heavy pre mium. The Northern Europeans are planning their tales with scientific accuracy, and try to give every market what ft needs, but in almost ery Inslanc ethe supplying of a large quantity of ne favorite dim ension Invariably calls for the tnchi slon of others not desirable. This is dine in order to equalize the sales so thst the mill will not be left with a large surplus of unde sirable stock on hind which must be sold at a discount. This is rsl salesmanships As far as prices are concerned our export schedules seem to be based oa domestic conditions without regard to the foreign basi price scales. Every one knows that wide stock and long lengths are re- Some of our exporters in this countrv are selling wide stock at a discount and narrow sixes at a premium. This is exactly the opposite of the price scales In most foreign countries As long as we have unintelligent exporters in this country, there Is probably.no hope of adjusting our prices covering different dimensions to conform to, international Drice scales. Another matter of Importance Is the furnishing of lengths 10 feet and up of Amerk-an softwoods. Mcst foreign countries charge a verv heavy premium for such lengths. In a normal foreign softwood specif! cation there Is always a certain oer centage of short lensths included. This is a step which could be'very well taken by our "exporters without in the least Interfering with the use- lulness of American lumber aboard: There are many other clroum stances which show that our export ers are not conducting business along scientific lines. Very few ex porters can resist the temptation of consigning lumber whenever bus Iness improves in a foreign market and such ventures are bound to re sult In failure. This Is again unin telligent business practice as lum ber can always be sold oa firm order elgn importers, and do not try as a inle to induce the importers to- specify such sizes an qualities ' as To carry on the lumber export trade as it should be means to be constantly and well informed in re- - - - - t aaiiuuaiaiiujt san wen intormed in re may be of the greatest Interest to'eard r- -nriH ,.!,. . .

In other words, our ex- one can serve two masters, aad it . . .-.,, iticit (just ness by accepting orders for sizes and grades that are difficult to manufacture instead .of using every efforts to induce foreign importers to take stock that is more desirable cutting to the mill.
