IMPORTS SHOW GREAT
RAW MATERIAL INCREASE

The shift of the American trade
balance to an excess of imports
over exports has been occasioned
by a vast increase in the importa-
ton of raw materials, the Depart
ment of Commerce stated today.
For February, the last month in
which imports have been scien'
tifically analysed, raw materials
made up 40 per cent of the inn
ports, compared to SO per cent in
February, 1922. For the eight
months ended March 1, crude ma.
terials comprised 40 per cent Of all
imports.
