interest to the livestock producers Of
the Northwest and one which ends a
controversy Of long standing between
state and federal authorities. 1t was
the Andersen amendment to the
packer and stockyards act, permit
ting the livestock weighing bureau of
the state of Minnesota to continue the
weighing of livestock at South St.
ervision, but with the passage of the

held that the federal law took pre-

been a keen issue on the question,

American Travellers Hand
Out $780, OO,O in Old
World.

Washington. - American tourists
abroad spent $66O,0OO,OOO, as against
only $1,OOO,OO0 spent by foreign tour
lists in America. Goods, for the most
part liquor, smuggled into the United
States amounted to $40,OOO,OOO.
These two debt items in the '.in-
visible exchange" trade of this nation
were material factors in piling up an
unfayorable international payments
balance Of $64.0OOOOO against the
United States in 1925, according to
figures announced by the Department
Of Commerce.
Metal Export Returns.
The report Of the department, the
fourth of its kind in as many years, is
Interpreted by Secretary Hoover as
follows:
Official statistics of exports and Inn
ports show that we exported $4,909,-
000,0 worth Of merchandise and i'm
ported $4,22s, 100000. There was thus
q favorable balance Of 1851, 100000 on
the movement of recorded merchan-
disc. Allowing for the estimated value
Of parcel post and struggled goods,
this balance is reduced to $3.50, 00O,O 900.
"Of precious metals, we exported
1851 10000 and imported $193, O0O,0 900,
showing net export for the year Of
$618, 100000, the first net export year
since 1919. Adding this sum to the
merchandise balance, our combined
favorable balance on the visible
items is increased to $s34.OOO,OOO.
Parallel with the movement Of
actual commodities are what are
termed the current invisible items
amounts paid out in foreign countries
by our tourists, remittances of immi-
grants, payments for foreign shipping
and services of one kind and another
Ia total Of $1,273, 100000.
Lose on "invisibIe."
"On the other hand. we received in
terest on money owed us by foreign
individuals and concerns and foreign
governments, dividends on foreign in
vestments, payments for the use Of
our ships by foreigners, expenditures
by foreigners in the United States, and
royalties on American motion picture
films sent to foreign countries, amount
ing to approximately $930,0OO, 600.
Therefore, on these items of current
invisible exchange we had net bal
ance against us Of $343, 100000.
'If now we put together the total
favorable balance on merchandise and
the adverse balance on current in
visible items, we find that our favor
able balance on current transactions
excluding gold and silver, is reduced
to 1928, 100000, or If gold and silver are
included, is reduced to $491, 100000.
