INDIA INCREASES
IMPORT TRADING
Dulness in Export Business
Partly Due to Embargo on
Shipment Of Cereals.

CALCUTTA, Oct. 15.--A record was es-
tablished in the import trade OF India
during August. when imports amounted
to 80 crores rupees and exports, includ-
ing reexports to 20 crores rupees. COM
pared with imports of 16 crores and ex-
ports of q crores during the same
month in 1919. For the four months
April to July imports and exports about
balanced each other, amounting to ap-
proximately 100 crores each. (l crore
10000. 900 rupees-S4,S69 $50 at par.)
The dullness in the export trade Is
partly due to the embargo on the expor-
tation of cereals and to the curtailment
OF requirements on the part Of the En-
tente Powers also the lack of credit IA
cilities in other countries which need and
want India's products but have not the
means to pay for their purchases.
Japan. for example, usually gets
her supplies of raw cotton from India,
but is now purchasing practically moth
ing on account of her domestic difficult
tics. Efforts are being made to find an
outlet for midas surplus stocks in other
countries. particularly Central Europe.
The Indian Government has commit
ted itself TO a policy Of fostering home
industries in every possible way. The
manufacture Of machinery and other
articles now being imported Is being
encouraged. and 1t is expected that the
Government will have its requirement
filled locally whenever possible.
Building on a very large scale liz ex-
pected in Calcutta. where the Calcutta
Improvement Trust is taking steps to
prepare large areas in the suburbs for
the builder.
In view OF the large stocks of i'm
ported products which are now stored
ir India Eastern banks are curtailing
their credit facilities.

PARIS, January 21.-It is rare to
find in eastern Europe a country
which is not starving or discontented
or in state of revolution, yet, ac-
cording to a member of Premier
Venizelos' civil cabinet, Greece is not

before parliament to appropriate
three-fifths of the great estates OF
the landlords and divide the prop

This state of affairs is due to several
causes. One is that the Greek carry

mean is rapidly regaining the position
it held before the war, even though sc
per cent of its available vessels were
sunk by mines and torpedoes. Since
the armistice 100000 tons of shipping

the Greek exports are large. In the
third place the agricultural regions OF
Thrace and Asia Minor. which Greece
has occupied by virtue of the Yer
sailles treaty. provide welcome sup
plies of food for the home market and
keep down the cost of living every
where except in Athens. In the fourth
place the confidence of the people in
the VeniZelos government is so great
that, according to my friend, deIega-
tions come from the farthest corners
Of Asia Minor just to kiss the pre-
