There is ample evidence that bor-

especially brokers' loans and the alb
sence of control or supervision OF the
money market by any constituted au-

on the surface the only monetary
disturbance was caused by belated

a resultant advance TO I y per cent

immediately restored.
Even the complete collapse of for

failed to arouse more than languid
interest except among International
bankers, who, unable to offer any
reasons for this adverse movement
other than the long recognized eco
monte conditions.
BulliSh literature which circulated
