SWeden's Foreign
Trade Tipped 50%

Sweden's exports last year were
valued at 9,170 million kronor and
imports at 9,1S9 million, or sixty
and fifty per cent, respectively
more than for 1850. The great in
crease in the value of exports was
largely due to higher prices. In
volume, exports expanded only a
few per cent, while imports rose
by nearly twenty per cent.
The couHtry's foreign trade in
1851 resulted in an import surplus
of nearly 400 million kronor, as
compared with only 20 millions
last year. Thanks to freight earn
ings and other income not includ-
ed in the trade statistics there was
surplus of approximately 1000
million kronor in the 1851 bal
ance of payments, which was re-
Elected in a doubling of the for
eign exchange reserves.
Forest industry products a st
year accounted for nearly 55 per
cent of the total export value. as
against 43 per cent in 1850. Ex-
ports of machinery, iron and steel,
iron ore, and products of the met
al-working industries. such as tel
ephones, refrigerators and cleo
trio generators, also were consid-
erably higher than the year DE-
fore. On the import side, fuels &C
counted for nineteen per cent of
the total, followed by textiles, sew
enteen, metals, thirteen, and ma
chinery, eleven per cent.
The current year is rot expect
ed to show the same favorable de-
velopment of Swedish export and
import prices as 1851.

The Winter Olympic

The Winter Olympic in Oslo are
at this writing going full blast,
and so far true to what most ex-

opinion Norway has done a little
better than expected. The point
standing as of Monday morning is

USA 341:. Norway 80, Germany

Todays scedule includes the
1900 m. speed skating and the II
KIN. cross country (combined) and
the results from these two event 5
will undoubtedly change the ma
tons standings.
In fact from now on it should be
"a competition mainly between
Norway. Sweden and Finland with
Norway an outside favorite to
wind up the games on top.
OF cou'se US is far from licked

ure skating and hockey and pos
today. Holland too stands a good
chance TO place in both 1900 and

pick up a few more points in sla-
lon and Dobsledding.

The competition this year is tre-
