03t l^'. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Maurice H. Stans, Secretary Rocco C. Siciliano, Under Secretary ener. Assistant Secretary for Economic Affairs BUREAU OF THE CENSUS A. Ross Eckler. Director SUMMARY REPORT FT 986 FOR RELEASE July 15, 1969 CUSTOMS DISTRICT BY CONTINENT COVERAGE This report presents statistics on U.S. exports and imports by air in U.S. customs district by continent arrangement. Data have been compiled from Shipper's Export Declarations (Commerce Form 7525-V) and import entries during the regular processing of statis- tical data on foreign trade shipments. The customs districts shown in this report are those having combined exports and imports by air valued at $2 million or more during the calendar year 1967. A complete list of the customs districts and ports currently in effect appears in the January 1, 1967 edition of Schedule D, Code Clas- sification of United States Customs Districts and Ports. Exports These statistics represent exports of domestic and foreign merchandise combined and include government and nongovernment shipments of merchandise by air from the United States to foreign countries. The statistics, therefore, include Department of Defense Military Assistance Program--Grant-Aid shipments, shipments for economic assistance under the Foreign Assistance Act, and shipments of agricultural com- modities under P.L. 480 (The Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended) and related laws. Shipments to U.S. Armed Forces and diplomatic missions abroad for their own use are not included in the export statistics. U.S. trade with Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions and trade between U.S. possessions are not included in this report, but exports from Puerto Rico to foreign countries are included as a part of the U.S. export statistics. Merchandise shipped through the United States in transit from one foreign country to another, when documented as such throughU.S. Customs, is excluded. (Foreign merchandise that has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently reexported is not treated as in-transit merchandise, and is included in this report.) The figures in this report exclude ex- ports of household and personal effects, shipments by mail and parcel post, and shipments of airplanes under their own power. For security reasons, certain commodities are desig- nated as Special Category commodities, for which security regulations place restrictions upon the export information that may be released. The data shown in this report for individual customs districts and conti- nents exclude exports of Special Category commodities, but overall shipping weight and value totals for Special Category commodities are shown. Further information and a list of Special Category commodities may be ob- tained from the Bureau of the Census. The statistics shown for exports to Canada represent fully compiled data for shipments individually valued $2,000 and over combined with estimated data for shipments valued $100-$1,999 based on a 10-percent sample of such shipments. The statistics shown for exports to countries other than Canada represent fully compiled data for shipments individually valued $500 and over combined with estimated data for ship- ments valued $100-$499 based on a 50-percent sample of such shipments. Effective with the statistics for January 1967, estimated shipping weight and value data are also shown for shipments valued under $100. These estimates are not included in the data shown for individ- ual customs districts. Since the export figures shown include estimates based on a sample of low-valued shipments, they are subject to some degree of sampling variability. The following is a rough guide to the general level of sampling variability (on a 2 chances out of 3 basis) of value totals. Usually, the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors. Detailed information on the sampling variability of individual figures is available upon request.

The statistics S., o include government a well as nongovernment shipments --* e, of merchandise by air from foreign countries to the */ united States. However, American goods returned by r ar the 1'.S Armed Forces for their own use are excluded. o.er L'U.. trade with Puerto Rico and with U.S. possessions and trade between L'.S. possessions are w included in this report, but imports into Puerto Rico from foreign . countries are considered to be L'.S. imports and are included. Merchandise shipped through the L'ntedStates .45 .5 in transit from one foreign country to another, when documented as sch through L'.S. Customs, is not re- .25 .75 ported as imports and is excluded from the data own in this report. (Foreign merchandise that entered a-' r. the United States as an import and is subsequently re- exported is not treated as in-transit merchandise and is included in this report.i Imports of household and personal effects, imports by mal and parcel post, and a. 1:.' imports of airplanes under their own power are n included. The statistics shown for individual customs districts represent fully compiled data for shipments valued $251 and over. Data for shipments valued under $251, re- ported on formal and informal entries informal entries generally contain items valued under $251 are estimated from a i-percent sample effective with the January 1968 statistics, a change from the 5-percent sample in effect during 1967. Separate shipping weight and value esti- mates for shipments valued under $251 are shown. The shipping weight data are estimated from the values on the basis of constants that have been derived from an observation of the value-weight relationships in past periods. Since the statistics showing total value of imports by all carriers include sample estimates, they are subject to sampling variability. In general, the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors. 'alue totals of 5500,000 and over will generally have a sampling variability of less than 3 percent; value totals of under 5500.000 will generally have a sampling variability of less than 550.000.
