ITALIAN EXPORTS TO u. S.
CURTAILED DURING WAR

New York, Oct. 29.-Because OF
the home needs during the time OF
war, the Italian government has
found it necessary to restrict and
prohibit the expectation of certain
products, among them cheese,
canned fish, olive oil tomato ex-
tract, torrone and mustard.
In. 1916 $l3,9460l8 worth OF these
food products were shipped from
Milan to the United States, and in
1917 the amount shipped from the
same port was valued only at So
75SSo4.
In 1917 the canned fish exporta-
tions decreased 35 per cent from the
preceding year and no olive oil, ali
mcntary paste, rice, sausage, tomato
extract, torrone or mustard pre-
serve were exported from Lombardy
to the United States.
Because of the need of woolen
clothing for the military forces no
woolen articles or raw wool were
permitted to be exported during
1917, nor will they be for the QUAR-
ton of the conflict. In 1917 the ex-
port of raw silk from Lombardy to
the United States was less than in
normal times, but, generally speak
ing, the war greatly benefited the
Italian silk industry, the last two
or three years, and the warehouses
were empty at the end OF 1917, with
the silk all sold at good profits.
Numerous restrictions have been
placed on the export of silk TO the
United Kingdom, but large guam
titles Of dotble and twisted silk are
allowed to be sent TO Switzerland.
With cotton and woolen materials
needed more and more by the army
and consequently growing higher
and higher in price silk is being used
more than ever and Italian silk
holds its own in Europe against the
competition OF that shipped from
Asia, and by extending her exports
to several markets, principally
France, England and Switzerland,
Italy is more than compensated for
the loss of the pre-war trade she had
with Turkey and the Balkans.
In spite of the fact that Italy is
not now sending so much silk to
the United States, she is sending
more silk waste than ever. Other
articles in which there was an in
crease of expectation during the
last year are chemicals, gloves,
crude tartar and watch jewels
