' W.hile prie.es of some eonmiQ'dities are higlL-it looks as thongli the outpnt is reaching prewar volume and in some cases exceeding it.. If the present drive and policy continues, it appears that the objective of exporting 75 per cent. more than prewar may be realised at a reasonably earlv date."
