Washington, March IS R-Cn- like the three chief executives who preceded him. President Hoover will send his first message to congress by messenger for reading by the clerk at separate sessions of the house and senate.

FEBRUARY FOREIGN TRADE VERY HEAVY
Highest Since 1921-FaYorable
 Trade Balance Large

Washington. March 15 P>-Feb- ruary foreign trade of the United States came close to setting new high records for the season. The commerce department today esti- mated that the months exports amounted to s444,ooo,000 against imports of $371.o00,00o, and that the favorable trade balance for the month was $73.000, 900.
 In February last year exports were s371,44S.000 and imports S351.- 0:5.000, with favorable balance of S2o,413,000.
 None of the February export figures in the last five years has equalled the total reported today. but it was exceeded in February 1921. The import total for the month was exceeded in February 1920, the high prices prevailing after the war being held account able. since the departmental ob- sc rvers consider that the quantities of goods moved this year were far in excess of those moving in the like periods of 1920 and 1921. The complete reversal of the gold movement of 1928 which began in January, likewise continued to in- fiuence the February showing. Gold imports into the United States were s26, 5000 for the month against exports of $1 .425,000. leaving the net gain of the metal for the period at $25.4SS.000. In February last year the United States lost gold to the total of $11,12o,060 as a result of exports of $25,S06,o00 and im- ports of $14,6S6,000. For the year to date, the net gain of gold by the United States was placed at $72,- 6S6.000. imports having exceeded exports heavily also during Jan uary.
