UNITED STATES TRADE
RECORD-BREAKIN G FIGURES (Rec. January 1, 8.5 p.m.) Washington, December 31. The Department of Commerce has reported record-breaking foreign trade figures, even surpassing the shipments during and immediately after the war. Both exports and imports were well in excess of those of the preceding year, and the United States closes 1929 with a favourable, trade balance of nearly a thousand million dollars. The gain in the export trade, however, was confined to the first four months of the year, after which it showed an actual decrease compared with 1928.
