SEATTLE, Dec. 12.-According
to advices received from New York
today, Canadian currency continues
to be discounted 10 percent on the
stock exchange. This low rate of
exchange, the advices say, is at
tributed to the fact that the Eng

much below its normal value, to-
days quotations showing the pound
worth only $3.66h.
The dispatches say further that
small hope of improvement is held
