that will enable Europe to restore itsin-

made unusual trade methods necessary.
Our former international business as
sociates," he added. have used their rr-
sources so freely during the long StrrE-
clc that they now temporarily lack tho
means to pay in the ordinary way. With
their tremendous obligations and their
depleted reserves they can spare M golo

of view il is in our interest 10 marker
