The U.S. Foreign Trade fell to the lowest point in nearly ten years during July. Exports amounted to only $269,000,000 and imports to $219,000,000, a decline in each case of about 30 per cent from 1929. There was an outflow of $42,500,000 in gold during the month, against an inflow of nearly $35,000,000 in July of last year.
