CONDITION
OF

Tuesday,
January
7,
1930
While
a
lull
in
business
has
been
caused
by
the
collapse
in
the
price
of
stocks
and
the
holding
back
of
the
wheat
crop
by
the
Wheat
rool,
the
general
opinion
seems
to
be
that
the
country
is
in
a
healthy
condition!
Hon.
James
Malcolm,
minister
of
trade
and
commerce,
in
reviewing
the
situation
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
said:
"Canada
stands
to
make
even
more
outstanding
progress
in
commerce
and
trade
in
1930
and
the
years
to
come
than
in
1928.
Industries
which
have
.been
enlarging
their
factories
and
production
plants
during
the
past
year
will
be
in
a
position"
to
increase
their
output.
Hydroelectric
development
under
way
and
planned
will
undoubtedly
attract
to
Canada
an
increasing
number
of
industries,
resulting
in
increased
production
for
both
domestic
and
foreign
consumption.
Export
consciousness
is
growing
among
the
Canadian
manufacturers
and
producers,
pointing
to
increased
export
trade
and
resulting
in
an
improvement
of
the
country's
trade
balance.
Foreign
Trade
"Possibly
the
most
important
factor
in
the
industrial
prosperity
of
the
Dominion
in
her
increasing'
trade
to
foreign
markets.
While
a
substantial
increase
has
taken
place
in
the
exports
of
fully
and
partly
manufactured-articles
in
recent
years,
the
advantages
of
foreign
fields
have
not
been
sufficiently
appreciated
by
Canadian
manufacturers
as
a
whole.
Development
of
an
export
trade
assures
the
exporting
manufacturer
a
steady
and
consistent
outlet
for
his
products
and
permits
his
factories
to
be
operated
at
capacity
the
year
round,
thereby
eliminating
costly
'slack
periods'
of
the
year,
permits
steady
employment
and
assures
steady
profits.
"From
a
Dominion-wide
perspective,
increased
exports
mean
increased
production
by
Canadian
factories.
Increased
production
means
factory
expansions
and
increased
employment.
Increased
employment-
means
increased
population,
increased
markets
and
increased
prosperity.
"In
the
past
a
large
proportion
of
Canadian
manufacturers
and
producers
have,
unfortunately,
to
a
large
extent
failed
to
recognize
the
possibilities
of
exports
to
foreign
markets
and
have
shipped
only
goods
which
have
netted
them
the
largest
profits,
neglecting
the
possibilities
of
working
up
an
extensive
trade
connection
in
the
goods
for
which
the
greatest
demand
exists,
but
which
does
not
net
them
as
high
a
profit
as
other
export
commodities.
Lack
of
conformity
in
quality
ahd
style
and
lack
of
continuity
of
supply
are
other
errors
of
many
Canadian
exporters.
'
Grain
Exports
"Reduced

mainly

for
the
decreases
shown
in
exports
to
Great
Britain,
while
