necessary authority, were to or
ganize an international clearing
house for the purpose Of stabilizing
the exchange, which could. in its
turn. be connected with similar
clearing houses likely to spring UP
IN other countries.

prove necessary. or to arrange for
credits. It would appear better to
make the credit arrangements in ad-

lization Of exchange.
In this way we might have at
tained q great end without delay;
namely. the exchange. II not at once

by preventing audacious speculation
from dominating everywhere as it
does at present by checking the use

credits and debts. by the lessenins

country.
French economists and statesmen,
being in the majority at the meet
ing. upheld Signor Luzzati, but later
they did not encourage their own
country to set about the suggested
reform. as 1t might mean to them
some losses on the exchange. The
English army and later the Ameri-
can left in France very great
amounts Of gold. The French. hav-
ing debts abroad. changed this into
foreign bills.
Since then. however. dark days
have also descended also upon
France. and her exchange also has
deprecated very much moro than
in 1919. II the clearing house had
been put into effect. the exchange
would not have risen against her as
much a. It has.
These now and vigorous propos-
ais were seriously and honestly cen
sured, and were received with pro-
test and bitter opposition on the
part Of spectators who arc to be
found everywhere, in Italy as well
as In France. in England as well as
In the United States. and who take
advantage Of the faulty system.
But at the international financial
meeting at Brussels, called last year
by the League OF Nations, the prop
osition Of . clearing house was once
more brought up. and was warmly
recommended.
