FOREIGN TRADE RECORDS
FOR TEAR JUST PASSED
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8 —The coun
try’s foreign trade amounted to over
$9,000,000,000 in 1917, exports reaching,
a total of $6,226,000,000, while imports
amounted to $2,952,000,000, according
to a statement issued recently by the
bureau of foreign and domestic com
merce, department of commerce. This
Is a gain of nearly $1,300,000,000 over
1916. when the total trade amounted
to $7,874,000,000.
December exports amounted to $589,
000,000, an increase of no less than
$100,000,000 over November. The im
ports for December amounted to $228,
000,000, an increase of $7,000,000 over
November.
Free imports formed 76 per cent of
the total in December and 72 per cent
of the total for the calendar year.
The excess of exports over imports
has nearly doubled in the last two
years, amounting to $3,274,000,000 in
1917, against $3,091,000,000 in 1916
and $1,778,000,000 in 1915.
The imports of gold during Decem
ber amounted to $2,500,000, as com
pared with $159,000,000 in December,!
1916. For the year the gold imports1
amounted to $538,000,000, against'
$686,000,000 in 1916. The exports of
gold amounted to $4,500,000 in Decern-j
ber. 1917, against $28,000,000 in De
cember, 1916. For the year the gold
exports amounted to $372,000,000, as
compared with $156,000,000 lit 1916.
Silver imports amounted to $6,000,
000 in December, as compared with
$3,50,000 for the corresponding month
in 1916, and to $53,000,000 for the
year, against $32,000,000 in 1916. Ex
ports of silver were valued at $10,000,
000 in December, 1917, and $9,000,000
in December, 1916. For the year the
silver exports amounted to $84,000,000
against $71,000,000 for 1916.
Increases in Value and Business Done.
Despite the very small increase in
number of vessels and the falling off
in total gross tonnage throughout the
country as a whole during the 10-year
period, the figures for value of vessels,
gross income, wages paid, and freight
carried show marked increases,
amounting to 89 per cent, 91 per cent,
44 per cent, and 42 per cent, respec- ,
tively. The number ot employees,
however, Increased by less that. 9 per
cent, and the number of passengers
carried show's a decrease of not quite
10 per cent. The foregoing items, for
the year 1916, are, in round numbers,
as follows; Value of vessels, $960,000,
000; gross income, $564,000,000; wages
paid, $103,000,000; freight carried, in
cluding lighterage, or harbor work,
376,000,000 tons of 2,000 pounds; num
ber o employees, 153,000; number of
passengers carried, 331,600,000.
The pronounced increase between
1906 and 1916 in freight carried, ac
companied as it was by a falling off
in gross tonnage, is accounted for by
the fact, already pointed out, that the
decline in tonnage took place entirely
in sail and unrigged craft and was off
set in considerable part by a decided
increase in tonnage of steam and other
mechanically propelled vessels, which,
because of their greater speed, are
able to carry more freight per annum,
in proportion to tonnage, than can be
transported by other classes of craft.
The decrease in the number of pass
engers carried is due to the reduction
in ferry traffic resulting from the es
tablishment of the “tube” service in
Greater New' York.
The vessels operating on the Atlan
tic coast and the Gulf of Mexico repre
sented somewhat less than three-fifths
of the total number for the United
States, a little more han half the to
tal gross tonnage, and about two-thirds
the total value, and reported nearly
half the total freight carried. The per
centage of increase in gross tonnage,
value, gross income, and wages paid—
34, 130, 136 and 54, respectively—were
much greater for these vessels than
the corresponding precentages for
those operating in other sections of
the country. In respect of freight car
ried, however, the increase for the At
lantic coast and the Gulf of Mexico
was relatively small, being only 29 per
cent, as against 44 per cent for the
Mississippi river and its tributaries,
43 per cent for the Pacific coast, in
cluding Alaska, and 67 per cent for
the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence
river. Canals and other inland waters,
show a decrease of 22 per cent.
Idle Vessels.
The figures above given relate to
vessels which were in active operation
during all or a part of the year 1916.
In addition, the report for 1916 shows
2,681 vessels, with a gross tonnage of
363,000, or less than 3 per cent of the
total tonnage, as idle during the en
tire year. The increase in number and
tonnage of idle vessels during the 10
year period amounted to 52 per cent
and 103 per cent, respectively. These
increases appear for both power and
(unrigged craft, but a decrease from
565 to 307 fs shown for idle sailing ]
v essels, although the tonnage of such !
vessels increased from 20,000 to 30,600. j
The proportion which idle tonnage rep
resented of the total shows an in
crease from 1906 to 1916 for each of j
the three classes of craft.

THE IMPERATIVE MOOD
When General Leonard Wood was a j
small boy he was called up in the
grammar class. The teacher said:
“Leonard, give me a sentence and
we’ll see if we can change it to the
imperative mood.”
“The horse draws the cart,” said
Leonard.
“Very good. Now change the sen
tence to an Imperative.”
“Get up!” said young Wood.—Christ- 1

tN THEIR SLEEP.
“They say Boggs is crazy on the sub
ject of golf, and his wife is equally
crazy over auction sales.”
“Yes, and the funny part of it is they
both talk in their sleep. The other
night a lodger in the next flat heard
Boggs shout, ‘Fore!’ and immediately
Mrs. Boggs yelled, ‘Four and a quar
ter!’’’—Boston Transcript.
