cent order of the British Treasury as the
most momentous financial development
that has come since the war began. Ho
writes to a local paper:
I'VE learn by cable to-day that the Brit
ish Treasury, under new ruling, forblds
future capital issues outside of the emf
pire. In its immediate bearing on the In.
ternationl commerce Of England. and as
consequence OF the United States. this Is
the most momentous announcement made
In living memory.
France has always reserved to itself
the right Of control In the last analysis
over the foreign investments of its people.
England. on the other hand, has al
ways allowed absolute freedom to her in
