the loss of over a million in cash was

prevailing rates for money at interior
centres, it was expected that funds would
have to be attracted to New York DUR

reflected in the bank statement.
The continued high rate of sterling eX-
change causes some anxiety as well as be-
wildment in view of the lower discount
