Russian Imports
In 1916 Double
Previous Year
Trade Figures but $83, ,O00,-
600 Short of Normal
Year 1913

Washington, July 22.-European
Russia imported s545, $4,000 worth of
goods in 1916, an increase of no less
than 100 per cent over the total for
1915. according to a compilation from
official Russian statistics made public
to o-day by the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce of the Depart
ment of Commerce. Last years i'm
ports fell only S3,OOO,OOO short Of the
figure for the normal year 1918. As
a matter of fact, since the official fig
ures do not include munitions, the
value of the goods actually received
and requiring transportation must
have been greatly in excess Of the
value recorded.
When it is considered that in 1916
European Russia received goods by
two routes only (Archangel ard Scan
Finland, while goods were
entered at forty-four ports in 1913, it
is easier to appreciate the tremendous
freight traffic that the port Of Arch
angel and the Russian railroads were
called upon to handle and the in
evitable congestion that has made nec-
essary the strict Limitation Of i'm
ports.
High Prices Figure
In the original figures, stated In
rubles, there was an apparent increase
in the 1916 imports of IL per cent
over 1918. The fall in ruble exchange
has been allowed for in the bureaus
statement by making the conversions
for 1913 at the normal rate of SIS
cents to the ruble and those for 1919
at 3l.S cents. In the big import re-
turns for 1916, however, high prices
constitute an important though inde-
terminate factor, which counter5al-
anced to some extent the decline in the
exchange value of the ruble.
The effect of the war was even more
apparent in the export trade of 1916
($l5l ,460, ,000), which was less than one
fourth Of the normal exports OF 1918
(S73l,7ss,o0o). though nearly % per
