The figures bring out the following points :—
(1) The total exports in 1925 show a serious decline on 1923
and are well below the pre-war volume.
(2) Our markets are still spread over a wide area, as indicated
by the high percentage of our exports to “ other countries.”
(3) Europe is relatively worse than pre-war, but the German
market was less affected by the depression in 1925 than
most of the other markets.
(4) An interesting feature is the progressive improvement in
exports to Italy. See pages 31 and 53.
