the United States Europe took second
place in selling goods to the United
States. Imports of $766.OOO,OO0 from
North America during the fiscal year
1917 were greater by &156,00O,0OO
than the imports from Europe. The
increase in purchases from North
American countries was due largely to
the greater value of sugar purchased
from Cuba. Imports from South
America and Asia showed gain OF
100 per cent. over 1914.
In order to retain the advantages
gained by aggressive business methods
and honest dealings, the Bureau Is
engaged in efforts to furnish reliable
data on all commercial subjects and
also to aid American commercial &C
tivity in every foreign field. The corps
Of special agents employed to investi
gate specialized lines in various coun-
tries has been doubled and now num-
bers 26. Their activities have extend
ed into South Africa. New Zealand.
Australia and Oriental countries.
Much information has been gathered
and assorted by the Bureau for the
benefit of American manufacturers. A
separate division for handling Far
Eastern affairs has been organized. to
promote commerce with nataons there
