The calendar year 1910 is going to
be the banner year for the worlds in
ternational trade. according 10 the
bureau Of statistics. The bureau re-
ceives statistics from practically every
country, and these show that both i'm
ports and exports are considerably
greater than in 1909.
Considering the figures that are now
at hand for any part OF the calendar
year 1910, the bureau finds that in
practically every case the records show
the imports in 1910 TO be greatly in
excess OF any monthly average OF the
year 1909, while the exports are. with
few exceptions, also in excess of those
Of 1909.
The bureau has received reports
from twenty-seven countries which
cover from six TO ten months Of the
calendar year 1910. In all Of the TWEEN
ty-seven countries the figures OF i'm
ports show a marked increase in the
monthly averages as compared with
the corresponding period Of 1909. The
exports also are considerably larger.
except in the cases Of Argentina and
Bulgaria.
Considering the countries for which
figures are at hand, the monthly i'm
ports and exports show an increase of
about nine per cent, as compared with
the corresponding months of last year.
and il is believed the worlds interna-
tiOnal commerce for 1910 probably
Will show exports valued at between
fourteen and fifteen billion dollars,
while imports are expected TO aggre-
gate more than sixteen billion dollars.
