Physical volume of trade has been
receiving attention from the Supreme
Economic Council: which finds that
the: aggregate weight of. exports from
nineteen countries in the first quarter
Of 1890 was 67 per cent. Of the aver
age weight OF 1913, if the figures of

Business. This is q decidedly better
showing than in the first quarter Of
1919, when the percentage was A.
. These figures cannot be taken as an
exhct indication of world recovery in
trade; for they do not. include data for
Central European countries. In other
words, they do not constitute an index
Of recovery for the part of Europe
which has been most set back by war.
By countries the comparative sta-
tistics show progress. In the first
quarter of 1919 Frances exports were
9 per cent. of, The average in 1913. but
in the corresponding quarter of 1920
they had risen to 43 per cent. Bel
