Overlooking Capitol Grounds Where Quality Is Higher Than Price REDFIELD QUOTES FIGURES AS PROOF Scerctary Claims Fagtory Owners Have Nothing To Fear Over Tariff Washington, July 8.—Foreign man- ufacturers sent into the United States during the first eight months of the new tariff system just 8.8 per cent. more of their finished product than they did under the old. This _was pointed out last night by Seeretary Redfleld as ample demonstration that there was no ground for the fears of American factory owners that they would be driven from business by the democratic tariff, Importations of foodstuffs showed a large percentage ' of increase in the eight months which ended with May, while foodstuff exports fell off sub- stantially. There was a relatively small reduction in the amount of com- pleted manufactures exported. Figures Show Results. “The figures,” sald Secretary Red- field, “show, as it is normal they should, the results of our own short- age of foodstuffs, arising from the in- adequate crops of last year, which condition fs rapidly passing away. They indicate also that our compet- ing power in manufacturing is well sustained because at a time when our commercial rivals are eager to sell and unwilling to buy, the item of ex- ports of fully finished manufactures Is | depressed relatively little and the item of imports of finished manufactures increases relatively little.” The total increase of importations of foodstuffs, the department’s figures showed, was $56,750,437, while the ‘| total increase in inportations for the period was only $55,136,685. Maintaining Its Business. In the line of finished manufac- tures, Mr. Redfield said the United States was malintaining its foreign business well. “The decrease of exports of food- stuffs,” the secretary added, “amounts in the eight months to $97,578,558, a fact sufficiently explained by our not having the foodstuffs to sell. The present large promise of fine crops has already begun to alter this situa- tion. A further decrease appears in manufacturés for further use in man- ufacturing of $30.668,377, reflecting the depressed condition of industries in foreign countries, Decrease in Foodstuffs. Out of a total decrease in exports for the eight months of $145,703,- 640, more than $128,000,000 was in foodstuffs and manufactures for ur- ther use in manufacturing. Total imports for the eight months were $1,288,656,041, compared with $1,233,519,365 for the same period last year. Free merchandise for the two periods was, respectively $800,214,038 and $683,015,455. The total exports were $1,640,367,305, against $1,786,- 070,945, Imports for May, 1914, amounted to $164,209,515, compared with $133,- 723,713 a vear ago. Exports were $161,732,619, a decrease of 16.6 per cent. since the previous May. WILL DEFEND TROPHY. American Canoeists Challenged by Ralph Britton of Gananoque Club.
