TO the indiscrminate use of IN" word

When IL was agreed that foreign

natural questions were as to the amount.

other questions. the manner In which
the loan should be raised, the time ana

Naturally, the man who explained this

came opinions as various as there were
financial interests consulted. EVERY
man had his idea and estimates ran all
the way from $3.50. 100000 TO the billion
dollars which the visitors were inclined
to ask for.
The problem was To decide in what
amounts foreign bills would have to be
purchased from time to time TO Keep
sterling up around si.Sl or si.s2. or
whatever was considered safe figure.
In considering this question the question
of munitions, so far as the actual loan
was concerned, was eliminated. In
making munitions purchases all were
agreed that England, France or any
other country could take advantage OF
the stable exchange rate, but that they
must supply the actual cash for munl-
tons from other sources,

tons again nearer TO the wilma Molo'

statement that "our troops are follow

justifies the assumption that a consider
able part of the wilma army, the objec-

have escaped over this road, and not, as
