UNITED STATES GETS
ITS SHARE OF TRADE
Bureau Of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce Expects Increase With Open
ing Of Canal

WASHINGTON Oct. 31,-As an init.
nation of the vast trade that will be
brought close to the doors OF the Ameri-
can manufacturers and merchants with
the opening Of the Panama canal, the
bureau of foreign and domestic com
merce today issued a statement Of the
world trade done by the countries
washed by the Pacific ocean. The total
of this trade cannot fully be gathered,
but the imports into the various Pa
cifc ports in 1912 exceeded two and
onethird billions OF dollars.
The bureau discovered also that tho
consuming power Of the countries vir-
tual]y doubled in a little more than a
decade IT also was ascertained that
tho United States was getting it's nor
nal share OF the trade, the percentage
which it supplies OF the imports shows
comparatively little CHANGE
Manufactured goods form the greater
part of the supplies sent from this coun-
try to the nations Of the Pacific. Ja-
pan and China, alone, are exceptions to
this for they are heavy purchasers of
raw cotton. One healthy feature of the
situation Is found IN the rapidly increas-
ing trade with the west coast countries
of Central and South America.
