BRITISH SEND MORE
COTTON TO AMERICA
United States Receives 5000,
900 Pounds of Yarn and
Much Piece Goods.

LONDON, Mar. 1t.-During 1920
cotton yarn TO the amount of nine
and three-quarter million pounds
was exported to the United states.
Only three and three-quarter mil
lion pounds were exported in 1919.
and even before the war. in 1913.
the amount reached was only FIVE
and a quarter million pounds.
The export of cotton piece goods
to the United States last year
amounted TO 100000 square
yards. as compared with 10000, 600
yards in 1919 and $4,000, 600 yards
i'm 1913.
There has. however. been a not
able decrease in the shipments of
yarn and cotton to Europe. There
was a drop of 100000 pounds of
yarn sent 70 France. as compared
with pre-war shipments, and the
shipments Of cotton cloth TO Den
mark. Belgium and France also
showed notable decreases.
The importance OF the Lancashire
cotton industry can be gagged by the
fact that Britaiu's total exports in
1920 were valued at almost $1,000
OOO. 600. of which total manufactured
cotton goods accounted for over two
billion dollars. The year 1920 was
probably The most remarkable in the
history OF the industry opening with
the greatest trade boom ever known
and ending with a severe depression
and extensive unemployment
