EXPORT TRADE
(Correspondence of Associated Press)
PARIS. July 19-France is on the way to recovery. Eugene Schneider, president, told the delegates to the international chamber of commerce at its dedicatory session in the Sorbonne. He supported his optimism with figures on the reconstruction of the devastated regions. These showed that 41 factories employing 235 persons were operating in the invaded departments. This, however, was compared to 3363 factories employing 668000 before the war.
I gave two general indications of growing industrial force. first the diminishing excess of imports over exports with a marked increase in the exportation of manufactured articles and second the increasing vessel tonnage over the reconstruction financed by the government. Reclamation of the war-torn farms and necessary to reduce the countries enormous importations of food stuffs was said by M. Lebon to be encouraging. He said the devastated regions would produce two thirds of a normal crop this year.
