The farmers of the United States
are exporting just about SO per
cent more of foodstuffs than the
city folks Of the United States are
importing, assuming that farmers
are not eating much imported food,
reports of the United States De.
partment OF Commerce indicate.
One report of the department
states that, during the eight
months ended February, 1898, the
United States exported $697, 1897 900
worth of foodstuffs. which was only
27 per cent of the total exports for
that period: while a report on i'm
ports issued today shows that $422,.
971,0 600 worth of foodstuffs were
imported during the seven months
ended January, 1923, or 81 per cent
OF the total imports for that period
The two reports seem to be sig

manufactures made up IS per cent
of our exports and 78 per cent of
our imports, for the periods men

President Harding has decided to
let his world court fight simmer for

has time to think it over, but it

argument stirred up by the Ad-
ministration will go on within the
Republican party and throughout
the country.

Senator Hiram johnson is expected
to lead an assault on the interna.

election has already revolved around
the court issue, and the. candidate
who upheld Harding's views came
out on top. This is only the fore
runner Of other similar contests,
according to reports reaching the
Capital, Republican and Democratic
leaders agreeing that many political
campaigns during the coming

the issue.
