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

log a large quantity of one or a
few dimensions only. 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
