United States' trade with Spain dropped enormously after the outbreak of the war in July, 1038. In 1935, for example, this country sold goods worth more than $14,000,000 to Spain. This figure was almost hal-wed in the following year, and in 1937 exports were less than $6,000,000.
Exports. from the United States to Spain (n 1937) declined more radically than those of any other important suppliers, the Commerce Department reported. There was a relatively large pick-up in exports to Spain during the first nine months of this year compared with the same period in 1937. Supplies valued at more than $9,700,000 were sold by United States to the both factions in the war-torn peninsula compared to only a little more than $3,000,000 in the same period last year.
Exports in September, 1938, totalled about $883,000, a gain of more than $75,000, over the same month in 1937 but a decline of about $365,000 from August, 1938.
