TRADE BALANCE ALREADY GREATER
 THAN LAST YEAR

NEW YORK, Nov. 30-According to figures compiled by the Conner cial the American trade balance for the first five months of the present fiscal year has broken the record trade balance for the entire last fis- cal year. It estimates that the balance for the five months ending today will be approximately S1,O75,OOO.00O, more by a few millions than that for the year ending June SOth. If the same pace shall continue during the remain der of the fiscal year, the trade bal ance for the year will reach the as- founding total of $2.5SO 100000, or two and a half times that of last year. which left all previous records far behind.
 A further sidelight on tho great record that is being made is afforded by tho fact that the trade balance would have been far greater # ships could be secured to carry an of the tonnage that is offered for foreign shipment.
