YOKOHAMA GENERAL CHAMBER OF COMMEROR AND TRADE IN JAPAN
The Report submitted to the members of tho Yokohama General Chamber of Commerce at the last scoal general meeting was in one marked respect very unsatisfactory. It showed that the volume of the goods imported iute Japan daring 1991 had undergone serious diligation, the valus boving fallen from 22 million guin road numbers, et millions, or 23 per cent. approximately. It is true that this differees was more than compensated by'an in- urses in the volume of expirts, the nut result being that the total holk of the country's Foreign trade showed a growth of abpað 8-pur ot. But the rapid development and healthy ondition of the exzmet business afford little con
lation to meretunts concerned chiedy with the import side of the Beszads, and for those the very important question arises whether the changed state of affairs witnessed last year is attribútab a to permanently opo-atimo sanana, or whether it is merely a temporary Rootnation.
