Official information regarding the action

cabinet officials discussed In connection
with the currency question on Saturday
was Sir James Westland's report. Sll
James Is the head of the financial de-

report took the strongest grounds
against reopening the mints. The com.

that no further effort in behalf of bi.

to come. They attribute their failure
to the opposition of the bankers and
to the London Times. Until these
