ed through new issues of the Belgian government in London, which could easily be smuggled into the country. Soon after the occupation of Belgian territory the German government dep- utized Dr. von Lumm, one of the most efficient directors of the Reichsbank to proceed to Belgium and take in charge the rehabilitation of the cur rency system. As the officials of the National Bank had refused to return to Brussels or restore it's assets, it be- securing the note circulation.
 Levying War Contributions.
 At the same time the German au- thorities were levying war contribu- tions upon various Belgian cities to raise money for meeting the expenses of governing the occupied territory contributions which could not easily be raised in the form of cash. The cities were therefore asked to issu, their certificates of indebtedness pay able at some future time, and it was decided to use these as one form of security for new notes, besides bank balances abroad, German gold and other currency. As the National Bank had refused to continue the fur ther discharge of it's functions, the note-issuing power was conferred upon the Societe General de Belgique, the oldest and largest banking com pany of the country.

Pope Benedict was grieved over the loss of the animal, which was one of a pair of fine Irish horsea that had been presented to him by Cardinal Bauer.

duty, etc., or at his discretion to make special inquiries through his majesty's trade commissioners, trade correspondent or consular officers in foreign countries.
 The importance that German manu- lecturers have placed upon the pro-
 duction of catalogues printed in the language and currency of the coun- tries to which their goods were ex- ported is well known. In order that British manufacturers may have an opportunity of inspecting catalogues of German origin, the board of trade have collected over 5000 specimens illustrating a great variety of indus tries, and these may be inspected at the foreign samples section of the commercial intelligence bureau"
 To Display Products.
 It was announced also that the col lection of samples of German and Austrian products gathered from for eign markets of the world, which has been exhibited in London, will now be shown at various industrial cen ters in the provinces.
 In addition to seeking to establish British products in foreign markets heretofore held by the Teutonic na- tions, the board of trade has begun a movement to encourage the manufac- ture in Great Britain of goods former ly imported from Germany and Aus tria.

BRITAIN HALF.MASTS
 FREE TRADE FLAG
McKenna ReVertS to- Chamber lain'S Policy to Secure Revenue

London, Sept. 23.-The present re- dical occupant of the chancellorship of the exchequer. Reginald McKenna, was forced by circum stances yes- terday to revert to some extent to the principles of Joseph Chamberlain. He was compelled to half-mast tre free trade flag and replace it by an embryonic representation of a tariff reform banner, in introducing in the House of Commons today, the largest budget on record.
 Faced with huge bills for war and ordinary expenditures aggregating in the neighborhood of f5,0o0,0OO ($25,- 000,000) daily, and bent on raising large sums towards the current cost of the war by taxation apart from loans Chancellor McKenna proposed sweeping increase in taxation. He went beyond the customary sources of revenue, such as the income tax, tea and tobacco, into the wider field of revenue raising advocated by the great Tory statesman who resigned office to prosecute his tariff reform campaign
 Fiscal Theories, Go By Board.
 Fiscal theories must go by the board, MT. Mckenna declared. The chancellor was actuated by the two- fold principle of raising additional funds and enforcing economy on all classes by means of taxation.
 It took MT, NcKenna nearly two hours to reveal the secrets of his budget and his proposed methods of the enormous commitments arising from the war. His opening sentence, however left no doubt as to the drastic character of the mea- sures he was to recommend. II must ask the house." he said, ito sanction great and unprecedented burdens. I am confident that if the proposed taxes are assented to by the house, they will be accepted by the conn try"
 He estimated that the govern ment's revenue for the current year would be $1,360,O0O,0OO, that the ex- penditure would reach $7,250, ,0O0,- 900, and that the dead weight of debt at the close of the fiscal year would be $11, 0,000,0 100000.
 Propose Increase in Taxes.
 MT. McKenna proposed an addition of 40 per cent. to tho existing in come tax and the taxation of aE incomes of f130 ($65O) or more. The present minimum is f160. The chan cellor also proposes an increase in the duty on sugar to 9s 4d ($2.24) per weight.
 A heavy tax on the profits of man. ufacturers of war supplies also was proposed by the chancellor. Fifty per cent. of all war profits above the mount assessed for the income tax last year will be subjected to spe- cial tax which works ou. nt 50 per cent. of the profits. McKcnna cs- timated the revenues from this source in a full year at s150.o0o, 900. An all-around increase of 60 per cent. in the duty on tea. coffee, chick cry, tobacco, dried fruits and other articles was suggested, and also an

for some months as bank of issue, and it's notes have come into general cir ] culation. Especially it's smaller notes are in great demand, the silver Cur recy having long ago disappeared by reason of hoarding.
 Important Financial Tasks. Two other important financial tasks had to be taken in hand. One was the fixing of indemnities to be paid for supplies of staple goods--like coal and other raw materials-which had been taken over by the military authorities for the armies; the other was the abolition of the moratorium which had been in force since the war began. The settlement of the indemnities was complicated by the fact that the goods in question were in many cases not owned outright, but were still to be paid for by the persons from whom they were seized. The commission having this matter in hand was, how ever, authorized to pay in advance half of the value of such goods, pend ing the final adjustment, in order that manufacturing and other business concerns might as soon as possible come into possession of money with which to resume operations.
 The moratorium, on the other hand, presented difficulties which have not yet been overcome. After nearing the representations of chambers of commerce, individual manufacturers and other business men, the new banking department attached to the civil government at Brussels saw that nasty action must be avoided; and to the present time the moratorium con- tinues in force.
 Superintends Receiverships.
 Still another function of the banking department is to prevent the payment of money to citizens of hostile countries, in harmony with a measure decreed by the German gov ernment for Germany in retaliation for similar action already taken by England. The deparntent also su- perintends receiverships for foreign concerns established in Belgium, especially branches of French banks. For this course, it is claimed again, English action has given the preca- dent, all the branches of German banks at London having been placed. quite early in the war, in charge of government receivers,

Washington, Sept. 23.-Great Brit aims plans for furthering the efforts of her merchants to establish them selves in world markets from which the British fleets of war are barring the once aggressive German and Aus trian exporters, are outlined in an- nouncements by the British board of trade, received here yesterday by the bureau of foreign and domestic com merce.

 Series Of Memoranda.
 Tn connection with the campaign which the board of trade have under taken" says the board, ito assist and supplement the efforts of British man. ufacturers and merchants to profit by the present opportunity for establish ing themselves in markets previously held by German and Austrian or Hungarian firms, the commercial in telligence branch of the board of trade has prepared a series of memo randa giving information with regard to possible developments in certain import trades.
