The New York Times of January 17 reports that despite the terrible blow of the Skopje earthquake the Yugoslav economy advanced rapidly last years "The Government authorities reported a 15% rise in production over the previous year, thanks to good showings in shipbuilding, chemicals, electrical appliances, the tourist industry and the wheat harvest." Yugoslavia is now among the world's twelve largest shipbuilders, and exports of ships were worth $33million last year.
