18.3, per cent over last month. Imports at $398.8 million were up by 21:2a por ĉoilt, and exports at $403.4 million up by 15.9 por cont, showing a large though "slightly decreased favourable balance of $44.6 million for the third 'successive month.

is gratifying to observe that the Increase was largely due to China which accounted for more than one third of this month's trade. Figures for China and Macao are shown in millions of dollars below, last month's figures being given in brackets:—
