Farm Exports Above Sales Made In 1953 Drop In July But Higher For Year WASHINGTON (INS). — The agriculture department reported today that U. S. exports of American farm products dropped in July for the first time this year although volume was still running ahead of 1953 sales. The department said that $213,000,000 worth of agricultural products were shipped overseas in July, as compared with $207,000,000 In June. The drop was attributed to the usual decline in exports during the month. Despite the decline, the department said that July experts were eight percent higher than the rate a year ago with cotton shipments, totaling 237,000 bales nearly double the 1953 level. Regarding .other commodities, the department reported that tobacco sales held steady and wheat exports remained low due to the worldwide surplus, while shipments of cottonseed oil and tallow were on the increase. During the first six months of this year, officials said that increasing exports of cotton were due to reduced supplies in most competing countries which boosted the world price to U. S. levels, making the American exports attractive. In addition, the department said that foreign mills were operating at record levels due to increased purchasing power abroad. The greatest gain in U. S. cotton exports was made in shipments to western Europe. U.S. wheat exports totaled about •21,000,000 bushels, the same amount as for June but 5,000,000 bushels below July a year ago. The department said this stems from improved wheat production overseas.
