Great Britain Urges
Subjects to Save
More of Savings

Correspondence OF the Associated Press)
LONDON, Aug. B.-While the American
exchange problem Is being apparently
ignored by the British government which
IL content to let gold slip away In small
quantities without making an effort to
meet its Indebtedness TO the United
States. much advice Is being given by
economists, through the medium Of the
press, as to the most efficacious method
OF dealing with this problem, which with
an adverse trade balance OF several hum
dred millions sterling grows more press
ing every week.
One writer advocates compulsory
economy 10 reduce imports and argues
that II the American exchange continues
against Great Britain the prices OF food
stuffs and other necessaries will continue
to rise. II may develop that there will
soon be no exchange at all as in the case
Of Petrograd where there exists only a
nominal exchange OF 90 per cent against
Il and gold expectation prohibited by law.
Russia, however, is in the position OF
being self-contained so far as toodstuffs
are concerned. The same writer advo-
