Falling Prices

u. S. Commerce
Trade Balance for 1922
Is / Billion, Against 3
Billion for 1921; Food
stuffs Exports Increase
War Works Big Shifts
Total Foreign Business Is
$6,379, 100000, Against
10 Billion Previous Year

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-American
foreign trade for the fiscal year which
ended June 80, suffered in common
with the general world depression, ac-
cording to an analysis issued tonight
by the Commerce Department. The de-
partment, however, found the great
decline in value from the previous
year to be due in a large degree to
fall in prices rather than in quantities.
The country's total foreign trade
for the fiscal year 1922 was $e,879 ,000,-
900, of which So ,6os, 100000 was in i'm
ports and s3,771 100000 exports, COM
pared with Sd0,170 100000 the previous
year, divided between 654,ooo,ooo of
imports and $6,516, 100000 of exports.
The nations favorable trade balance
for 1922 was only slightly over $1,000
100000, as against nearly $3,O00,O0o,-
900 the previous year.
"For the pear 1921-'22," the depart
ment said, "the excess Of exports over
imports of 81 100000 was liquidated
in part by $4,000 900 net imports of
precious metals, and this, together
with the additional estimated balance
against us of 81 00,000,000 of invisible
exchange, exceeds the amount neces-
sary to square accounts by some $780,
100000"
A steady increase in the ratio of
imports to exports which, if continued,
would reach balance in the move
ment Of goods in another few months
wes noted by the department. Sew
eral important shifts in the country's
foreign trade. owing to the war, we're
observed. Exports Of foodstuffs have
increased immensely, owing partially
to the decentralization Of Russia. Agri-
cultural exports for 1922, amounting
to $93s,000000, were actually larger
in quantity during the year of de-
preston, despite that they decreased
in value by about $700,000,000.
Decreasing exports of raw cotton
were attributed chiefly to short produc-
tion, but partially to the steady in
crease in cotton manufactures In this
country. Exports of agricultural pro-
duce comprised 15 per cent of the
entire crop value on the farm, while
exports Of manufactured goods were
less than per cent of the countrys
production.
"This last fact" the department de-
clared, "has much to do with our ability
to shake loose from European economic
currents in the manufacturing indus
tries, and with the strengthening of
employment in our home industries we
will, no doubt, increase home consump-
tion in agricultural products
The balance of trade in tropical coun-
tries is heavily against the United
States, amounting to about $50O,0OO,-
600 year.

Business Rival Accused

Peter Gregory, who has restaurant
at 365 DeKalb Avenue, Brooklyn, is in
the Kings County Hospital with two
bullet wounds in his chest, and Peter
Poulos, whose father runs competing
restaurant at 456 DeKalk Avenue, is in
jail charged with felonious assault as
the result of an argument last night.
One bullet pierced the right breast of
Gregory and the other hit him in the
left chest. He. is expected to die.
The two restaurants, according to the
police, have been opened only few
months and keen rivalry has been dis
played by the two Greeks. Quarrels
and constant clicking have been going
on for weeks, the police say. Last
night Poulos and Gregory met on the
corner of DeKalb Avenue and Steusen
Street. After Guarreling, it is alleged
that that Poulos drew revolver and fired.

not fall, but grappled with Poulos.

pistol away and beat Poulos about the
head. BY the time Detective Gene Daly.
Of the Classon Street station, arrived
