Indirect proof that the countries of
Europe are getting back onto their in
dustrial and commercial feet is given
by the statistics furnished by the Unit

garding the foreign trade of the United
States during March. The statistics
show that the foreign trade of the
United States was nearly three-quar-
tiers of billion dollars less in March,
as compared with the business of the
same month last year. This situation
tells almost as plainly as words that
the manufacturing industries of the
once war-distraeted countries Of Eu-
rope are getting back into their stride

much of the loss of trade to the Unit
ed States can be ascribed to a lessened
buying power in Europe. 1t is GER
tain, too, that if Europe had furnished
the demand for goods the manufactor-
les of the United States would have
produced the goods. Therefore, the
loss of nearly three quarters of a bill

in March must be credited to Europe's
increased producing capacity.
