BRITAIN'S BUSINESS.
NOVEMBER RETURNS. TOTALS FOR 11 MONTHS. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright) (Official Wireless.) RUGBY, Dec. 12. The Board of Trade returns for November show that the imports into Britain for the month were to the* value of £106,855,000, a decrease of £582,000 compared with November last year. The value of exports was £63,766,000, a decrease of £6,843,000. For the first 11 months of the year imports totalled £1,095,000,000, a decrease of £18,500,000 compared with the corresponding period of last year. Exports for the first 11 months of this year totalled £663,000,000, an increase of £20,750,000 compared with the corresponding period of last year. The decrease in the November exports is largely accounted for by a reduction in the exports of cotton and woollen goods amounting to £3,000,UOO. There was also a decrease in the exports of vehicles, including locomotives, ships and aircraft, of £676,000. The increase of exports for the 11 months' period is, however, a gratifying feature of the returns.
