THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS


Mr.. Oppenheims forthcoming
book is a strong narrative of Amer
lean finance, its depths and intri-
CUES. Here are shown the methods
OF n group of millionaires who con-
troll the leading American trusts
and influence the money markets of
the world. The story opens with
the discovery of secret treachery
among the great financiers.
Mr.. Oppenheim handles the COM
plicatlons of his plot with his usual
skill and cleverly carries his read
ers through labyrinth of deceit
and double dealing. The characters
are well drawn and strongly differ
entiated, and the two American
girls who play important parts are
delightful additions to Mr.. Open
