varied but little, the great change
being In exports.
In March. the latest month for
which statistics are available, eX-
ports were valued at $3S4, ,00O,OOO,
as compared with an average OF
S6S6,000.000 month during 1920.
February's total exports we're the
smallest In value since June. l0lS,
and below the monthly average Of
any year since 1916. Our exports
for the first eight months Of the cur
rent fiscal year were more than one
hundred million dollars less than
for the corresponding period Of the
last fiscal year.
And let US pot be deceived by our
tremendous favorable trade balance
into thinking that We have vastly
increased the volume of our exports
during the last six years. The fact
is that quantities have not increased
anything like values. The rise In
prices of commodities since the war
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1921-06-06

has been the principal factor In
raising the values OF the exports
since 1914. In fact. the value Of
exports Increased by 219 per cent.
whereas the quantity Of exports In
creased only about % per cent from
1913 TO 1920. II would not take so
tremendous a slump IN exports to
put us back 20 the pre-war quantity
basis, and the calamltous effect
which that would have now on our
expanded Industry requires no ex-
position.
The enormous surplus OF exports
In the last six years could never
have been made had exports not
been financed on the faith that
they would ultimately be paid for

cents out Of every dollar of exports
represented goods shipped abroad
on credit, and In January Of this
year 50 cents out of every dollar
was on credit. 1t has been estimated
that our commercial credits to for
elgn buyers now aggregate four bill
lion dollars.
But our existing facilities for
financing our export trade will not
permit an indefinite extension OF
the amount of credit necessary to
bridge over the present reconstruc-
ton period. In fact, that is the chief
reason our foreign trade faces the
prospect Of serious decline. There
is no material diminutlon. as a
whole. In the urgent need and In

mated recently that the big steam
ships were carrying an average Of
only 30 per cent Of their cargo ca

Al think In terms Of what

the world. II Is time to realize
fully what the rest of the world.
especially Europe, means TO u.s. We
have lately put too much emphasis
on our help TO other nations; we
need to understand that we require
their aid.
Heretofore we have sought and
obtained Europe's money and men.
Today we need European markets
TO preserve our national prosperity.
While II Is true that the United
States Is more nearly economically
independent than any other world
power and that the great market
for our products Is our own coun-
try, nevertheless, we are economi-
cally dependent upon other nations
to a larger extent than Is generally
understood.
The most patent and perturbing
evidence Of reactions here to eco
nomic disturbance in Europe is the
present unemployment In the Unit
ed States, unquestionably due in
considerable degree to worldwide
conditions. AS consequence Of
business depression and price re-
