OVERSEAS TRADE.
N.Z. Exports to Foreign Countries. Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, February 5. The assertion that New Zealand’s trade with foreign countries is out of balance only by half a million was made by the president of the Manufacturers’ Association (Mr J. A. C. Allum) in the course of a statement to-day. Mr Allum said that exports to foreign countries direct in 1932 were £2.508,000 arid exports to foreign countries, via London, £4,119,000. making a total of £6,627,000, or £5,965,000 sterling. Against this New Zealand's imports from foreign countries were £6,486,000 sterling. New Zealand’s trade with Britain also was seen in a different light when an allowance was made for exports to foreign countries via London. With this allowance our reciprocal trade with Britain was about £1,800,000 sterling out of balance.
