Tremendous exports rise in the United States trade totals
The Census Bureau projects exports for the fiscal year ending next June will reach 1.5 billion dollars, up from 189,1869 and 100,600,600 in prior years. North American purchases outside the United States, South America, Asia, Oceania, and Africa show varied gains, with manufactured articles contributing about 27.4 percent of total exports. The report cites Chin’s cotton troubles and the Hawaii and Porto Rico changes as factors reducing Asia trade and altering foreign-country status for some regions.
