FRENCH BANKER

EXAMINED.

WHY BANQUE OUSTRIC GOT.

INTO DIFFICULTIES,

This does not include certain contracts concluded during that period on which deliveries are to ba mado later, these contracts hav ing a further value of £5,000,000. On the other hand, exports from the Boviet Union to Great Britain decreased under the period under review to £23,542,322 from the $29,339,584, exporte of the preced- ing economia year, showing a do erase of 10 per cent.

The report also mentions that during the past economis year, nå Many as 418 British steamers were chartered by the Soviet Union to transport Russian grain, timber, naphta and other products while in the preceding year the number of such chartered English steamers wo but 76. This, the report adde, early proves the importance of Anglo-Soviet economic relations not only for the Soviet Union but for Great Britain as well.
