ese bankers have declared that a new
domestic loan should be raised to re-

This decision is a result Of the fact
that japan has about 100000, 900

monetary circulation Of the world
will become stringent owing to the
financial readjustment OF the powers
concerned. How Japan should deal
with the situation difficult question.
The bankers think 1t advisable to
raise a domestic loan with view to
redeeming foreign loans while the
money market is now in a slack con-
