Dec. Imports Through Port Of Saint John

(Canadian Press)

SAINT JOHN, N. B, Jan. 12- Decembcr imports through the port of Saint John showed a slight in- crease over the corresponding per- iod last year, while exports were nearly double the tonnage in the previous December, it was announc- ed today by the harbor commis-

sion. Thus the uptrend noted in the

figures for November and Oclobcr was continued.

Statistics for the ivliolc year showed the 1932 aggregate below 1981 in both imports and exports, the larger decrease hi exports be- lng attributed to the slack your in grain.

Recently, however, general cirrgo has maintained ltsclf well, groin handling multiplied its totals for the corresponding previous periods, and the eud-of-lhe-year data is the bright spot in the 1932 review, ac- cording to the harbor commission, with much better indications for the coming year.
