Demand for American Products.

Consul Kennedy at Para, BAIL, reports
to the State Department that the demand
for United States products is increasing, in
spite of the financial crisis in Para and the
Amazon valley. brought about by the tre-
mendous rise in exchange and the scarcity
of money.
The steady and rapid upward tendency in
exchange and the enormous shrinkage in
the prevailing price for rubber, he says,
have upset all calculations. 1t is reported
that more than 5000 notes have been pro-
tested monthly during the crisis The con-
sui says the situation offers no promise of
Improvement in the near future
