Reports Heavy Deficit of
SLUiss Federal RaiLlUays

Gross operating revenues of the
Swiss Federal Railways for 1921 are
reported by Vice Consul Murphy at
352,210,O00 francs, with operating ex-
penses of 332,770 francs. leaving a
surplus OF only 100000 francs, the
smallest in the existence of the sys-
tenn. Net incomes from other than
passenger and freight traffic in
creases this to about 35. zoo, 900. Inter-
est charges of 94,OOO,00O francs must
be met. and in addition nearly $4,000
600 francs will be required for legal
redemptions and amortization funds,
and about 10000, 900 francs for
special funds. such as renewals. So
the net deficit for 1921 will amount
to approximately $4,000, 900 francs.
Since 1914, the surplus has never
been sufficient to cover interest
charges. The main reasons for the
situation of the railways are the
high cost of material, increased
wages and salaries, the unsettled
state of Europe. and the introduction
Of the eight-hour law.

land ready for exploitation. that
country possesses an excellent
source of foreign credit. reports
Trade Commissioner H. B. Smith
from Warsaw to the Department of
Commerce. When satisfactory
terms gre authorized for the de-
velopment by foreign interests of
the extensive government areas,
which are estimated to contain
more than a billion cubic feet OF
timber in the eastern districts
alone, considerable activity may be
expected and the resulting revenue

to make substantial purchases
abroad.
Principally Pine and Oak.
Pine and oak are the principal.
kinds of wood, with considerable
quantities of spruce. Owing to the
excessive demand for manufactured
lumber for reconstruction. a fair
proportion of the yearly cut must
be made available for local use
for some time TO come, estimates of
the amount of timber available for
SNboiN OIl ~ 10 OO per
cent Of the total merchantable cut.
An American timber expert declares
the tall, clean. straight growth of
oak in the Bialowieza forests to De
the finest he has ever seen. 1t is
regarded as one of the best oaks
now available for the manufactur.
of barrels.
Export Prohibition Removed.
The, Polish government has re-
moved its prohibition of the ex-
port of logs, pulp wood. lumber,
slaves and veneer, and the only re-
strictions now in effect cover rail-
way ties. pine or oak. owing to the
large quantity needed for replace
ment purposes by the ministry OF
railways.

lumber merchants have represent
atives for the purpose of handling
Polish timber. is likely to become
the leading port of expectation, ac-
cording to Mr.. Smith. The relaxing
of government control of exports on
July Is. 1921. led to increased ship
ments during the latter half of the
year.

Recovery in French Trade.

Somewhat greater activity in the
movement of ceramic products into
and from France marked the closing
months of 1921, according to late re-
ports received by the Department OF
Commerce. In the last quarter of
the year imports of pottery and glass
ware were at teh rate of 17.S03. 100
kilos per month. contrasted with an
average of 14.027.600 kilos for jan
uary-September: and exports were at
the rate Of l0t9s2.9 .9ee kilos. against
lO.61S.6OO for the first three quarters.
However, the recovery (most OF
which, as regards imports. occurred
In Deeembe) was not sufficient to
counteract the effects OF sluggish
business earlier in the year. and the
totals cf l19.65I,900 kilos for imports

some extent, although it is expected
there will be lessening of the pres

with prospects Of smaller worlds ship

for a fair decrease in the visible

ed as very slow both at the Gulf

Corn and oats showed an easy
undertone in sympathy with wheat.

a new low on the present down

reported as brisk and fair sales were
made at the seaboard Exporters
were after offers here. Sales Of 100
900 bushels were made to go to

feet on values, as the domestic de
mand is slow. Oats seeding is badly
delayed and the forecast is for gen
orally unsettled weather over Sunday.
Provisions were dull and easier
in sympathy with grains and de-

Motor Service Competing
With SIDedish RaillDays

Swedish railways are beginning
to feel the competition of motor
trucks. says Consul Sholes at Cote
borg in a report to the Department
of Commerce, and while motor traf-
fic on Swedish highways is still in
its infancy, the progress made in
recent years justifies the belief
that the automobile is becoming a
factor of growing Importance in
the Swedish system of communica-
tions. The Swedish Railroads AS
sociation has presented a petition
to the government pointing out
that the motor lines have spread
to a considerable extent, especially
in the more thickly populated sec
tions of the country. where road
conditions made such traffic profit
able. The association proposes
that whenever motor traffic is
planned in a territory where it
might damage an existing railroad
line the railroad should be given
precedence in obtaining concessions
for the motor route.

DULL TONE RULES
IN COTTON MARKET
Continuance of Strikes in

NEW YORK, April 1.-The local
cotton contract market was dull
again today as the continuance Of
the cotton mill strikes in Rhode
Island and New Hampshire, with
their spfead this week to the Law
renee mills and the probability they
may be extended in the near future
to the New Bedford and Fall River
mills, is having an overshadowing
influence on all other considera-
tions. Even the somewhat late and
poor start the new crop is getting
for planting operations in most Sec
tions of the cotton belt by the re-

much new speculative trading in
contracts. Todays reports showed
there were further undesired rains

This, however. was soon lost. and
later the maSNet declined to to :

tion Of the exports taken by South
America in that year-20 per cent
was only slightly larger than in the
year just closed. The decline dur
ing the calendar year 1921 is ex-
plainable in the existing worldwide
depression which was evidenced in
South America by a drastic curtail-
ment of the foreign demand for the
various staple products il would eN
port under normal conditions, the
consequent scarcity of funds for con-
struction purposes, the high cost of
materials (though less inflated than
