Figures on Trade Balance.

Exact figures of the record-break-
ing American export commerce Of the
fiscal year ended June 80, show that
the trade balance in favor of the Unit
ed States-the greatest in its history
was $1,O94, 422,792, an increase of
$685., 100000 over the year preceding
and $428, 100000 more than the best
previous record, made in 1908.
Exports total $2,768 ,643, 532, an in
crease Of $404 100000 over the proceed
ing year. Imports were $1,674,22O, TAO,
a decrease of $219,7OO,OOO.
The gold movement, which reflects
the effect of the war, shows imports of
$171 ,56S,755 and exports of $146,224,-
14s, as against $66,53s,65 imported
and $112,038,529 exported the year be-
fore. The official figures show little
variation from estimates previously
announced.

Price-fixing has been undertaken by
the German government upon a COM
prehensive scale. The empire has
been divided into four districts and
definite maximum prices for necessi-
ties have been fixed by imperial edict
In each. A severe penalty has been
fixed for the withholding of articles
OF food for the purpose of influencing
the market. While the measure is
supposedly aimed at spectators and
dealers, it will serve the purpose of
placing the ''hold your wheat" propa-
gandas of growers under the ban as
we'll.
