Washington, September 35.-Ameri-
can businessmen are facing $4,000
900 daily loss from the strike or
British railway employees. This Is
the value of the merchandise manu-
featured and shipped from the ports
of the United States to the United
Kingons> Part of this has already
been cut off by the orders of the

is expected to be completely stopped
if the British transport workers strike
in sympathy with the railwaymen.
1t is estimated that from this coun-
try foodstuffs alone total 100000
900 a month. >All classes will be hit
it is said, producers, manufacturers
and shippers. 1t will be a severe
loss when the stream of dollars that
have been pouring in from Britain
since January last year, is cut on.
Prices May Be Reduced.
On the other hand it is believed
that the closing of the British market
may reduce prices here. Farm pro-
ducts form the bulk of the exports.
