Rally Clears the Situation.
Today's sudden and unprecedented
rally clarified the situation for the
time being and led TO the belief that
rates nearly approaching normal

Delegates Reported En- Route.
1t was reported, without confrma-
ton. that the British delegates. whose
departure the censor has cIoaked
with secrecy, were aboard a British
warship and that they would soon be

Halifax on a British man-o-war. The
gold and securities in these shipments
totalled about $110, 1000. 900. This sum,
II was assumed, was to be exceeded in
at least two and perhaps three other
similar shipments now en- route or
contemplated.
The next big gold shipment from
abroad was not expected here this

Heavy Foreign Selling of Securities.
Heavy foreign selling Of securities

rates today, as well as general cover

abroad told of the forcing out of
American stocks and bonds in the
hands Of British holders by the at
tracttve premiums offered at prevail
ing exchange rates.

who was only recently released by

SEEK TO MODIFY
PRESS CENSORSHIP

London, April 21.-The press cen
sorship in both France and England
is still far too rigorous for the good
of the countries cause, in the opinion
of NJ. Henry Franklin-B -Bouillon, chair
man of the committee of foreign af-
fairs of the French Chamber of Depu-
ties, who has been here for a series
of war conferences with Lord Kitch-
ener, Chancellor Lloyd-George, Sir Ed
ward Grey and other statesmen.
part of the work of the committee
which sent me on my present mission -
he said, "is to urge that not only in
our own countries but in neutral
countries as well, a true perspective
of the course of events should be held
out.
in England and France alike, the
main obstacle is the excessive rigor
of the censorship, and this subject
discussed with some of the leading
men in England | was glad to learn
that some concessions to the press
are now being considered
What we all feel on the foreign
committee is that our own communi-
cues are too bald and uninteresting
a recital to inspire our people with
that enthusiasm so necessary to main
tain them steadily until the victory
is won. The English eye witnesses
one with the English army and one
with the French, are certainly doing
fine work; but to get at the great
mass of people, things must be dished
up and presented in all sorts of dii-
ferent ways by trained writer's, each
with his own point of view and liter
airy style.
From my committees standpoint
it is supreme need that the doings
of the French army should be brought
home to the Imagination of the Eng
lish people, and to that end a strong
recommendation has been officially
