MOTOR EXPORT
GOOD IN JUNE
Slight Decrease Noted Dur
ina Summer Month

Altho the total value Of automotive
products exported during June de-
creased slightly. the proportion OF
motor cars and trucks exported 20
manned at slightly over 8 per cent
Of the production, according TO fig
ures compiled by the department Of
commerce. The total value Of auto
motive exports for June amounted TO
15.977.441. as compared to siIo92,-
OIL for May. a decrease Of about s
per cent.
One OF the conspicuous features OF
the months figures Is the increase
OF about per cent in the value OF
passenger cars exported. in spite OF
slight falling off in the number.
While the value OF trucks exported
declined slightly. this decrease Is
much less noticeable than that Of the
number exported The number Of
cars exported from Canada, however.
Increased approximately 35 per cent
and the value increased only IA per
cent. The increase in number and
value OF truck exports from Canada
was approximately ~ and ~ per
cent, respectively. The large increase
in the Canadian exports can be ex-
planned by the fact that exports TO
| Australia. Great Britain, and New
Zealand markets, which take princl.
pally Canadian made cars, have
shown the greatest growth.
An important decrease occurred In
the value and number OF engines for
cars and trucks which we're exported
during June, as compared with May.
The June exports amounted to only
about 30 per cent of the previous
month. There was also decrease In
the value OF parts and accessories,
exclusive OF tires. amounting TO
nearly II per cent The decrease in
these two items account In a large
measure for the falling Off In the TO-
tai value OF autonotivc exports
! which occurred during June.
