committees were read and only fourteen
Of twenty seven films passed on were

cate him. This man brought list of
names to me at my office at the Shank
headquarters. He asked me to pick out
the names l know. l picked out two or
three. He asked me If I would talk to
them, and l said that it was my business
to do that. l looked at the list Of names
again and noticed that some lived out
of the city. I told him that | had moth

Chinese Finances

SHANGHAI, China. 49, Leading
Chinese bankers and business men
Of this city feel that the failure OF
the Chinese government to sign the
new loan agreement with the Amer
ican consortium group covering the
two wine and tobacco loans amounts
10 q reputation of three Chinese
bond issues now largely held in
America and a complete sacrifice OF
credit there.
Peking's financial muddle is the
chief topic of conversation among
the foreigners and the Chinese. The
only explanation is that the Peking
government Is desperate and, hoping
TO prolong its existence, is willing to
sacrifice foreign credit in the expec-
tation OF securing other loans, either
native or japanese, to cover the
American loans and still leave 81
surplus.
The effect on Chinese bankers Is
very bad, since they fear that this
revelation of the government disre-
card of its obligations, in spite of
the imminence OF the Pacific con-
ference, will prompt "A local panic.

When they do not kiss promis-

the above mentioned things.
I'm so doing is the girl not forfeit
