Thirteen departments have exceeded their quota fGREDIT OF ARGENTINA South American Country's Ex ports .Far ffreaterThanits imparls LONDON, Oct. 27. W-Argentlna Is piling up a huge commercial credit In London, and wondering how and when she will be paxi. The credit comes laigely from. Argentina's big meat sales to the British. Ministry of Food, which Is buying for all the United Nations. Britain and the United States, with their factories producing for war, cannot send her the manufactured goods she needs badly and used to get from them. Argentina, during the first four months of this year exported to all countries nearly twice as much (In value) as she Imported. She sent . Britain 163,000,000 pesos' worth oi products prin cipally food and imported only 66,000,000. She shipped 128,000.- 00 pesos' worth to the United States, and took only 65.0p0.000. ( The trade balance with Brit ain has been along those lines since early In the war, w-hlch means Britain owes Argentina a lot of pounds sterling. In the suggestion put for ward to make use of this bal ance, two stand out. 1. Argentina would use her credit to reduce her foreign debt, much of It held In Britain. 2. The Argentine government would acquire some or all of the British-owned railways In Argentina. The British government, of course, would prefer to sell goods to Argentina to make up the deficit. There seems little prospect, however, that Britain will be able to do that soon. Argentina's exports, even In normal times, usually run ahead of her Imports. Although she now needs great quantities of manufactured goods and fuel, to fill the import gaps of the last two years, the tendency probably will be, even In peace time, not to let Imports get out of hand. Britain and the United States in switching from a war-time to a peace-time economy, will have tlieir hands full to supply the nations ravaged by war, after filling there own needs. At that time, too Argentina's food supplies meat, wheat, corn, oats will be In great demand With the world's ships di verted from war to peace Htse. itary Disaster Is Prepared For By Nazi; Admission In Berlin Large Withdrawal Movement Being Carried Out in Dnieper Bend with Reserves all the Way From Melitopol to Smolensk.
