Trade Dairen, Jan. 20.
Manchoukuo's exports to Germany ior the last six months of 1938, according to figures released here, &mounted in value to approximately Y. 50,000.000, while Manchoukuo's imports from Germany were valued at 4 about Y.50,000,000.
Of the German imports to Manchoukuo machinery amounted to Y.14,750,000; construction material in metal Y.4,530,000; medical and chemical goods, Y.1,520,000; spinning machinery, Y.200,000; others, Y.620,000.
As against tne same period of 1937, these figures show a decline in terms of yen of German imports to Manchoukuo, but this is believed to be largely due to the unsettled exchange conditions, low bean quotations and slack demand for this commodity on the European markets, Under the Italo-Manchoukuo trade pact, in operation since September of last year, Manchoukuo exported goods to Italy to the value of Y.1,732,000 and imported commodities from Italy valued at Y.1594000. Manchoukuo's 4 exports comprised beans at Y.1,534,000, bean oil at Y.180,000 and groundnuts at Y.18,000.—Reuter. d Movements of Gold
