IMPORTS INTO j. 5. FOR 1913 WERE
HEAV|ERTHANAN PRECEDING YEAR

WASHINGTON. D. t.-AcCOrding to
the department of commerce, the for
eign commerce OF the United States
made its highest record in the fisca;
year 1913. Imports. beth free and
dutiable. were larger than ever before,
end exports. both domestic and for
e!gn. were also the largest on record
Imports were $1.8l3, 900. 900. against
Sl,654, 100000 in the fiscal year 1912.
and exports were $2,466, 900, 900,
against S2.2O4, 100000 in 1912.
The changing character Of our for
eIgn commerce is illustrated by a
comparison Of the figures Of 1913 with
those of earlier years. Imports show
il recent years a much more rapid
gain than exports. While imports in
creased but q per cent in the 20-year
period from 1880 to 1900. they in
creased ll3 per cent in the shorter
period from 1900 to 1913. On the
other hand, exports. which increased
1880 to 1900, gained only - per cent
in the period from 1900 to 1918. I'm
ports formed in 1900, 37.S per cent,
and in 1913, 42.4 per cent of the total
foreign commerce. FoOdstuffs import
ed in 1900 aggregated 1921 100000 and,
in 1913, $4C6,O00, 900; manufacturer
raw materials imported increased dur
ing the same time from S276, 900, 900
TO $685.. 000,0 900, an increase of 1884 ,000,-
600 in the value of foodstuffs and raw
materials imported during this period.
On the other hand, foodstuffs exported
during the period under consideration
show a decline of 100000 and raw
materials an increase Of $406,000, 900,
q net increase Of but 1852 900, 600 in
foodstuffs and raw materials exported,
compared with an increase of 1884,
100000 in foodstuffs and raw materials
imported.
In manufactures, however, the
growth in exports has exceeded that
in imports. Imports of manufactures
for further use in manufacturing in
creased from $134,000,000 in 1900 to
$S49,O00,OOO in 1913, and finished man.

ufactures from $2OS .000.000 in 1900 TO
$4QS. 900 900 in 1913; while on the eX-
port side manufactures for further use
in manufacturing increased from $153,-
600 dollars in 1900 to $409 zoe. 900 in
1913, and finished manufactures from
$4,000. 900 10 $77S,000.000. the in
crease in manufactures imported dur
ing the period having been $42 0.000,.
600 and in manufactures exported
$702. 100000
The largest increase in the valua-
ton OF the various groups OF merchan-
disc imported and exported in recent
years does not represent a correspond
ing increase in quantities. In a large
proportion Of the articles forming in
ternational trade, prices in recent
years are much higher than those in
The earlier years of the period under
consideration. and the increases IL
quantities are in many instances less
than the increases in total values. this
being especially true of foodstuffs and
manufacturers materials.
In finished manufactures the deter
mination of prices is much more diff
Acult, though for limited number of
articles prices may be ascertained. and
these show in most cases a less adj
vance than that in raw materials or
foOdstuffs.
A brief but thorough en1!"sis of this
foreign trade is to be fUuIi in the
monograph Annual Reriew of the
Foreign Commerce If tie United
States, 1913" Miscellaneous Series
No. IA, of the bureau OF foreign and
domestic commerce, just published.

Growth of American Cities

Outside of the census, the most re-
liable record of the growth of Ameri'
can cities is that given in the World
Almanac The Almanac's figures are
estimates based on the best informa-
tion obtainable, and are wholly i'm
mune to local pride or prejudice-as
nearly impartial as anything short Of
an exact count can be.
Material for interesting reflec-
tons in the Almanacs estimates of
city population on January L, 1914, as
compared with estimates for the same
cities a year earlier, and with the
census statistics of 1910 is found.
The country is credited with 81
cities, each of 100000 or more inhabi-
tants, a gain of IA since 1910.
Cities which are credited with the
largest increase, 1910-1914, are: New
York, 326,936; Los Angeles, 230,S02;
Chicago, 208,142; Cleveland, 1898;
Detroit, 14S,720; Philadelphia, 1892;
San Francisco, 83,0S8; st. Louis, TO-
AIS; Oakland, 1895; Seattle, 1896;
Portland, Ore, 66,786; Toledo, 66,422;
Pittsburg. 66,095; Boston, 62,977; New
ark, 52,531; Kansas City, Mo-, 5l,6l9;
Birmingham, Abs; Houston, 1920.
ST Louis is still fourth city, but
closely pressed by Boston and Cleve-
land, with Detroit, Los Angeles and
San Francisco coming forward so fast
they must be regarded as challengers
for fourth place in 1920.
Los Angeles is credited with being
the largest city on the Pacific coast
leading San Francisco by $4,000. But
the San Francisco urban district, in
Guiding Oakland's 225,O0O across the

is still much larger than that of Los
Angeles. Just as New York is now
the largest city in the world, 100000
Inhabitants as against 100000 in

of the urban districts Of which each
city is the center are: London, T..

II President Wilson has been q
stickler for any one thing it is his
party platform. He turned down the
suffragettes because the platform did
not endorse them and has taken refuge
behind the democratic platform policy

mitted. Now he wants congress to
violate that platform by repeating the
coastwise free toll section of the Pa
mama canal law, but is unwilling to go
on record with a message to that eff
