VA Elec & Powér mm CHNA'S TRADE AT BY EFFECT OF WAR Merchants Are Disoouraged by Slow Recovery From Widespread Hostillties. 10115 By the Associated Press. CANTON, China, June 8-—During the first quarter of 1 Canton's éx- orts and imports have shown little mprovemént, over the past year. Un-| stable money, war, political unrest and increased tariffs combined to block the efforts of Cantonese merchants. Exports and Imports. ‘The city's trade in 1028 was only 21.3 rflr cent above 1927, the latter being the worst year since 1920. Can- ton's combined exports and imports ln, 1028 were $131,764363. This total would have fallen below the 1927 figure except that import merchants received heavy shipments from forelgn eountries | in the final quarter in anticipation of the new high tariffs which went into | effect February 1, 1020 Merchants are discouraged at slow return to normal conditions. The year 1024 is considered the 1ast during which Canton enjoyed ita full benefits of foreign trade. That was the vear receding the atart of Gen, Chiang ai-Bhek's northern expedition. Ninety-three per cent of Canton’s importa are transhipped at Hongkong and officially listed as of British origin and 09 per cent of her exports are loaded into ocean liners at Hongkong. For this reason it is difficult to know the real origin and umln-llon of com- mnflmu ln Lnns ‘The ue of lmpom in 1028 was $28, anonzo one-seventh of which | came from the United States. The chief American import was flour valued at | $1,467,000. ther important commod- ities purchased from the United States | were kerosene, medicines And druge, | Incomotives, lubrieating ofls, canned goods, gasoline, parafin, dyes, chemicals, electrical goods and tollet preparations Newspaper Importations, importation of old American newspapers during the year reached a total of $60,000, almost as much as the value of importéed Ametican automo- biles. Old newspapers have A market vAlue here for use A8 wrapping paper | and for lining the walls of houses. Canton's exports in 1928 amounted to $51.660,285, of which 27 per cent went to the United States. Exports to France eéxceeded those to the United States by approximately $2.800,000, chiefly raw and waste stik. Most of the French shipments were | carried on American ships. ~ Eighty-four | Rz, cent of Canton's exports to the ited States consisted of raw and waste silk valued at $12,000,000. 1 COTTON IRREGULAR IN QUIET TRADING Gains w|ped Out After lully, Leaving Prices Virtually Unehnnged ‘The 8pecial Dispatch to The Star. { NEW YORK, June 8.-~The cotton market continued to drift irregularly | today under the influence of crop news on the one hand And the process of liquidating the July position on the other.
