British Exports At New Post-War High

London, Aug. 23.

It was officially announced yesterday that Bri- tain's exports have reached a new post-war high, 20 per cent above the monthly average for 1938, driving the nation steadily closer to the time when more goods can be allotted to the domestic consumer. Mr. John Belcher, Parliamen- tary Secretary to the Board of that Dri- Trade, who disclosed

taln's exports in July were valued

at £01,000,000, said he hoped "we shall very speedily reach the position where we can supply the home market" without the con- tinued clothing rationing.

Pointing up strikingly the in- crelsed speed of the British re- covery drive, Mr. Belcher dig- closed that exports in June were valued at £00,000,000, only 68 per cent of the 1030 monthly average.
