German Exports Flood
Egyptian Markets Now
ALEXANDRIA, Egyflt, Jan. 22. i
Germany in increasing her exports
| o Egypt, and it is felt here that
rhe has virtually recaptured the'
j Egyptian market.
j Orders which previously went to
' I a pan are now secured- by German
firms. She exercises an almost un
'.’hallcngcd monoply . in synthetic
l.v.'i, toy; and pianos, and has a
predominating position in the field
•If pencils, paper, glass, chinaware,
cutlery, leather goods, small metal
manufactures, cotton hosiery, small
mirrors and hardware. All these I
articles have been dumped into the j
Egyptian market on a scale and at
prices that have defied competition.
Statistics on foreign trade for the
first seven months of 1922 show thati
l Germany has advanced from sixth to
j fourth position, and that the United
States stands fifth. The loss of con-1
1 hUrable American trade this year is
| iue to the heavy falling off in the
i 'inportation of cereals.
, Last year nearly $15,000,000
I worth of wheat and wheat flour
i ilone were brought in from across
lie Atlantic, whereas this year, up1
< !o the end of July, the amount was
less than $1,000,000 for the same
period. Rumania's revival of bust-1
nias 1ms contributed largely to this
. loss by the United States. Kerosene
5 fiom America also dropped to a very
i- !u"' figure, the Rumanian product
taking its place.
