canoe In Official
Report Just
Issued.
New York, July 19-Frank A. Van
derlip, President OF the National City
Bank, on the first of July authorized
statement that for the fiscal year
which ended June 80 there would be
favorable trade balance for the Unit
ed States of about $4,000. OOO, 900. and
that this would be about twice as
great as the trade balance ur the
fiscal year of 1915.
President Vanderbilt was not far out
of the way in his statement. His own
statistical bureau matches In accur-
acy now the one maintained at Wash
ington by the United States Govern
ment. The Washington figures, how
ever. have official authority and are
therefore accepted as accurate. How
near these official figures came to the
estimate of Mr.. Vanderlip, is shown
by the report made by the department
a day or two ago that our total foreign
trade was $e,5OO.OOO, 900, and of that
total exports represented 54.345. OOO,-
900 and imports $2.155,OO0,OOO.
The aggregate trade balance in ia
vor of the United States for the fiscal
year which has just ended was ST.
$50, 100000. or about $4,000 900 more
than Mr.. vanderlip's estimate. Proba-
bly, never before has a corporate sta
tlstical bureau so nearly matched in
its figures the reports made by the
official statistical department at Wash
ington.

Sugar Leading Them All

Sugar Leading Them All
The largest item in our imports is
sugar, there having been imported
$2O6, 100000 worth of it. That is a
raw material and we must always i'm
port much the greater part of the raw
sugar which we refine. Rubber is a
raw material of the utmost importance
to American manufacturers. How
great that Importance it is made evil
dent by the fact that in the fiscal year
Just ended we imported rubber OF the
value of $159,O0O,OOO, or not quite
twice as much as we imported the
year before.
Our manufacturers say that we were
fortunate to secure so much rubber as
this. The manufacture of shoes and
other articles into which hides and
skins enter brought into the United
States commodities of this kind the
money value of which was almost ex-
actly equal to the money value of
the rubber, and was $4,000 900 more
than the money value of hides and
skins imported the previous year. We
need a great deal of wool, and our i'm
ports of the past fiscal year were in
money value double what they were
the previous year
We paid foreign nations SAG, ZOO, 900
for wool, and we paid foreign nations
s122,00O,OO0 for raw silk, an increase
of $40.0O0.0O0. We also paid sos, OOO,-
900 for chemicals nearly $4,000 900
more than we paid in the previous
year. These were importations that
were a benefit They enter into our
Besides, the best judges
hope that our imports will increase,
for in that way it will be easier for
other nations to pay the heavy bill
they owe the nited States for COM

Less Raw Cotton Exported

\ The effect of the war is clearly dem
onstrated in the money value Of our
raw cotton exports. II was only $780,
100000. Some years ago James Still
man is reported to have said that our
exports OF raw cotton of that year
would be found, in his opinion, to be
about equal to our favorable trade bal
ance, $500,000.O00. The event proved
the truth of that statement. There
were two curious features contained
In this report of the years trade. for
while wheat and -four fell on as COM
pared with the proceeding year, the
money value OF their exports being
1914, 100000, on the other hand meat
increased. the money value OF this
commodity being $4,000, 900.
After all the details that are most
significant are those which tell the
characteristics Of our imports. When

Contain Significant Details

The official figures just received
contain some details which are very
Significant. The figures point Impress
IDLY to those other figures just pub
lished which tell of imports of $780,
100000 in gold since January l, 1915,
and OF about $4,000. 900 in gold be-
tween January and July l of the
present year.
Not all of the exports reflect war
orders, but many of them do tell the
story of our city early unpreparedness
to meet the demands made by the
belligerent nations upon us for NUM-
tons of war The enormous agsre-
lgate of steel and iron exports for the
fiscal year was $61S,OOO,O00. Not all
this, however, represents orders for
Emunition of war.
We are exporting a great deal OF
iron and steel commodities to other
nations than those now engaged in
war, and the order recently placed by
Russia in the United States for 45O. 900
tons of steel rails will have no effect
upon the exports of this year, but will
be recorded In the exports of the cal
endar year six months of which are in
|1917.
Orders came in late in 1914 and
early in 1915 with a rush and with al
most overwhelming magnitude for ex-
plosives, but it was necessary for the
United States to manufacture these
war-dealing munitions. We could only
manufacture and sell in 1915 explo-
Bives Of the money value Of SAL ,OOO, 900
but few months later our Industries
were able to catch up with the great
orders. so that in the fiscal year just
ended they exported explosives of the
money value Of s47S,OOO,OOO. That is
AN enormous increase within two
years, for in 1914 the explosives we ex-
ported were of the money value of only |
SO, 900.
