member of the experts reparations COM
mittee, which worked out the plan for
the institution.
Political influences will be excluded
from its operation, he says in the cur
rent issue of World Trade, journal OF
the International Chamber OF Com
merce, and it will be governed strictly
according to business principles.
Describing 1t as a natural and neces-
sary evolution from the facts OF the
reparation settlement" he predicted that
the bank may, in natural course, develop
into an organization not merely nor
even predomlnantly concerned with the
handling of reparationS, but largely If
not primarily with the furnishing of
important facilities hitherto lacking to
international commerce and finance.
Future Awaits Economic Trend.
aft. in years to come, it takes on
broader functions he writes, lit will
be because, and only because, there Is
practical and specific use of it in
branches of economic life which are not
now served"
In 1CS capacity as trustee OF Jne cre0l-
tor nations, he explains, ut will receive
and disburse to the paying agents the
service on the German external loan,
1924" and it will initiate upon the re-
quest of the creditors, operations for
marketing bonds, arranging the condi-
lions and supervising the execution of
contracts, and will arrange for the dis
tribution Of the proceeds according to
the participation of the several credi-
tors In the bonds issued"
Safeguards Protect Present Firms.
Safeguards were adopted to protect
existing business and financial agencies
from competition on the part of the
bank, ne points out, but it will perform
q number OF banking functions. Eur
thermore, he says, "it will provide
common meeting ground month by
month for the governors or other rep
resentatiVes of central banks (of the
nations concerned), and thereby become
an increasingly close and valuable link
IN the cooperation Of central banking
institutions generally
New conditions which have confronted
the world since the war have shown
such cooperation to be essential for
the continuing stability Of the world
credit structure, he observes, and sug-
geStS that it also may prove to be an
effective means for opening up new
neldS OF commerce and charging the
volume or world trade as a whole"

Australian police are searching on be-
half of French police for man who, II
has been proved, denounced an innocent

years of terrible suffering, was effected

Henri Bellon, the victim, while visit
ing Switzerland during the war, was
Swindled out of large sum Of money
by an Austrian trickster, who. because
of Bellon's disclosures, had to flee to
France. When there the Australian con-
ceived the idea of revenging himself on
Bellon by denouncing him to the French
authorities as the man who had exposed
French agent in Switzerland as a spy.
Bellon, on returning to France, was
arrested and tried on the charge of de-
nouncing an accredited agent Of France
abroad.
Only the fact that deportations were
suspended during the war years pre-
vented his being sent to the Devils Isle
straightaway, but after five years in jail
he was sent to the French penal settle
