VAMERICAN TRADE WITH SAYAPAR FAST
New York, April 7-Heavily stocked markets and seasonal fluctuations, combined with lower prices for some bading staples, tended to reduce the total February trade of the United States with the Far East" by $39.175,000 under January from $228,088,000 to $186,908,000; or 18 per cent, says the New York "Herald. Compared with the " $182,884,000 total trade" of" February, 1926, however, there was a gain of 54,024,000; or 43-8- per cent.
Both imports and exporta shared in approximately the same proportion in the reduction. Fre- 14,602.50 Eminary returns show that or
17
Februazy sales to the Orient, totalled $55,497,000, a drop of 132:50 $20,683,000, or 16 per cent from the preceding month's figure of |$66,180,000, but an advance of 10,000.00 $13,582,000, or 32 per cent, over the $41,915,000 exporty in 20,687.92 February of last year. Due largely to the drop in rubber 370,422:02 prices, our purchases from the Far East sales slumped by $27,492,000 from $159,903,000 to $131,411,000 or 17 per cent. But" this was
an actual increase of $40,442,000, or 17 per cent, over imports for February, 1926, when they were valued at $90,969,000. -Reuter..
