export orders to the United States prior to prohibition, so far have been able to obtain orders for $3,000,000.
 One central European industry has, however, proffted by repeal. This is the barrel industry. Both in Germany and Czechoslovakia their exports have increased. This Is because the manufacture of beer barrels eaken slaves are three or four years and which were
 However, the central European barrel indusry is aware that this present boom is temporary and will end as soon as the American home market can supply itself.
 Wine growers in Germany and Hungary expect a slight increase in their export trade only. From both countries but a few special ties are eligible for export to the United States.
 From Hungary only the vint- ages of Tokay are playing 8 role in exports. The other vintages hardly are worth the freight.
 The Hungarian foreign trade bureau declared that so far there is no effect of repeal noticeable on the wine market. This opinion, however, is not shared by Nicholas Lazar, the chairman of the Hun garian Vintners' association, who claimed that the recent stabiliza- ton of the price for Tokay vint- ages, which until a few months ago was sliding constantly, Is di- rectly due to repeal.

 As repeal did not shatter hopes in these quarters, it also failed to raise great hopes among the cen- tral European brewing and dis the exception of Pilsen brewers, who expect a boom in export trade.
 German brewers point out that always have been small. Thus in 1913 only SO.O00 hectoliters of German beer were exported as compared with an American home production of 70,000,000 hecto- liters.

 German brewers do not expect their business to pick up apprecia- ply partly on account of the high import duty of $1 per gallon, and partly on account of the de- preciation of American currency as compared with the stable" German mark.
 In Czechoslovakia, where the brewing industry is concentrated around Pilsen, the outlook is diff ferent. Pilsen brewers are making every preparation for big boom. They have refused to grant licens- es to American producers, claim ing that Pilsen beer only could be produced in Pilsen.
