lire are at n discount of approximate
~ 90 per cent The principal cause
for the depreciation is the super
abundance Of lire bills in this market
growing out Of the heavy exports from

ton has been aggravated by the failure
of the Italian government to give the
market artificial support by arranging
loans and credits in this country, as
England and France have done TO
maintain their exchanges at work

Bethlehem Steel and Sun
Shipbuilding Companies
Get Contracts

Baltimore. Feb. e. An official of the
Bethlehem Steel Company announced
tonight that the Cunard Line, OF Eng
lard. had placed with the company an
order for two big freight vessels, each
Of 800 tons. They will be built at
the company plant at Sparrow's
Point
simultaneously announcement was
made in Philadelphia that the Sun
Shiphuildng Company, Of Chester,
Penn, had received contract from
the Cunard Line for two standard
10000 ton cargo boats It is also un-
derstood that another freighter. of
similar capacity, has been ordered from
a San Francisco firm.
These are said to be the first con
tracts for shipbuilding awarded By
British steamship companies to Amer
lean shipyards for fifty years. They
therefore mark the beginning Of new
era in the shipbuilding industry IN
America.
II was rumored here to-day that the
Bethlehem Steel Company was negotl-
atinc for a contract for five British
vessels, and it now appears that this
order was divided among three com
panies.

Du Point Concern
Cuts Down Its
Extra Dividend
Large Cash Surplus Need
ed Against Emergencies,
Say Directors

Directors Of the f. |. du Pont de
Ncmours & Co.. in accordance with
decision reached by the officials Of the
concern "a short time ago 70 curtal
the distribution Of war profits among
stockholders, yesterday declared a
quarterly dividend Of only - per cent
on the common stock, compared with
% per cent paid the preceding quarter.
The company, it was intimated, deems
il cxpedient TO use part of its large
surplus to finance the probable extern
sion Of its operations and also to
strengthen its financial resources
against any possible emergency which
ma arise.
n all goes we'll and there are no
serious political or industrial disturb
ancos the directors hint that they may
AZ some later time see fit to resume
the disbursement Of large extra dlvi-
dends. but for the present the policy
will be to continue quarterly payments
at the Az per cent rate, which, it is
said. the company can well afford, IN
view of the extraordinary profits IT IS
accommodating on its war orders.
Like other large corporations en-
gagged i'm the manufacture Of munitions
and war materials the company Is pre-
paring to meet the requirements Of the
United States government should the
need arise. This. in fact, is said to be
one reason for the adoption Of more
conservative policy in regard to the
distribution of its financial surplus at
the present time.

industrial collateral the rate is some

Local bankers are much interested in

In the last few days the tendency

The above rates express the cost OF
foreign money in terms Of 'he Ameri-
can dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling for A75h; the intrinsic par
ity is s4.s6es per pound. Thus, you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars arc at pre-

in England the demand for dollars
