From the N. 7. Evening Post Financial Bureau
LONDON, September 13.-The for
eign exchange situation is manifestly
affected by the delay on your part In
ratifying the treaty. which presum-
ably is keeping back American bank
ers from adopting remedial schemes.

which, measured by sterling. now sells
for less than 21ad, is a chief obstacle
to Industrial recovery.
Some of the English trades are
anxious to buy marks. but gloomy re-
ports coming by way of Poland as to
social and political developments in
Germany prevent substantial pur-
chases Almost everything depends
upon imports of raw materials and get
ting rapidly to work.
Labor Situation Acute.
Our own labor situation is resolving
itself into a conflict between the
moderates and the extremists among
the wage earnerS.
The former clearly recognize the
absolute necessity of increased and
cheaper production in this country.
A triumph of the hotheads here or
on your side would mean a world
wide catastrophe, and even possible
starvation in some quarters. because
of the paramount necessity that pro-
ductive forces, impaired by five years
Of war, make good some Of the loss.
Financial circles recognize that vital
Importance attaches to Lloyd Georges

lists or semi bolshevists in this coun-
try would instantly react elsewhere.

BUYING CHINA

For the young housekeeper who
must begin her home on closely cal
culated expenditures it is often wiser
to buy her china from what is called
by the shops open STOCK" or an
open pattern" than to procure an
entire set of eighty or one hundred
pieces OF a cheap grade. To buy in
this way means that one may select
as many and just such pieces as one
wishes, and one may also renew any
Clipped or broken ones.
AS America is not a producer of ia
BILE china to any extent-in fact, really
manufacturing only porcelains-the
imported wares, like other imported
things, have risen in price, and some
are difficult to obtain.
From the Orient one still draws
three good breakfast or luncheon
chinas. These three kinds are known
as Canton, Howe and Sedji. There is
also Gold Medallion" ware, vivid in
color and more elaborate than the 9TH
erS.
An alluring legend belongs to the
first pattern-the Canton china, or will
low pattern, as it is sometimes called,
traces in it's quaint pagodas, boats,
streams and little figures the story OF
Li-Chi, the lovely daughter of man
DARN.
Li-Chi dared to fall in love with her
fathers secretary, Chang. When the
mandarin forbade the match the Low.
ers eloped and hid themselves in the
humble cottage of a gardener. The
pursuing mandarin is foiled in his re-
venge, for as the lovers escape from
the cottage to an island, they are
changed into a pair of turtle doves by
the kindly help Of the gods. The name
of the china is acquired from the will
low, which at the time of the elopo-
ment was shedding its leaves.
