abroad at very low prices all of our coEn-
modities that could find a market, our
importations were comparatively small,
while our expectations We're very large.
No condition of that kind is characters
tic of the fiscal year now drawing to a
/ close. Our importations have been mag
nifieent both in quality and in amount, as
well as in the number of dollars which
represent them. But our exports have
marvelously surpassed even these great
fmportations. These exports represent as
a whole all the industrial and agricul-
tural activities of the United States. An
estimate was made some weeks ago that
the money value of our expectations of tie
products of the soil would be found to be
this year a billion two hundred millions,
perhaps more Our expectation of manu-
featured products. complete and partial
is likely to be represented by an aggre-
gate of billion two hundred millions, pos
sibly more.
We made amazing records in the spring
months. and it is amazing from two points
of view. Our exports have been phenom-
email for the spring months. In the month
of May alone there was visible export
balance in our favor of SCI 100000.
A ParadOxical Situation
Yet ever since the first of the year the
reports have been successive and consist
ent of money stringency, business ankle
ties and various disturbances in Europe
of kind which, by inference at least,
would have caused a great falling off in
purchases of American commodities Yet
We have sold more than ever to the rest
of the world.
Great Britain herself reports a paradox
ical position, for the official statistics of
the foreign trade of Great Britain are ap-
proximately new record. The truthful
record of our total foreign commerce is
impossible to tell. Nobody can do more
than estimate or guess what the aggre-
gate amount of our payments to Great
Britain and to other countries of a kind
which do not go upon the record amounts
to- They must be very great to England
alone. For, in addition to insurance and
charges for transportation of commodities

Competent judges, especially those IA
miliar with financial affairs in Great
Britain speak with admiration Of the abil-
1ty shown by the United States to accept
without serious decentralization the very
heavy sales of American securities which
nave been made since the first of last
december. These London authorities nre
lhcllhed to think that the American far
liiers ana the American manufacturers,
through their wonderful command of for
eign markets reflected by our export
trade, are the influences which have m
abled the United States to absorb with un-
expected ease the enormous block of
American securities which have neen
thrown upon our market
