NEW YORK, Aug. 6-CP-The
Hongkong dollar dropped nearly IL
cent in the exchange market to-
day as residents and traders in the
British crown colony converted
their holdings into u. S. dollars
and the pound sterling.
The price of the currency in the
local market, banking quarters said
is based on trade in Hongkong,
where the uncertain, stage of Brit
ish-Japanese relations has led many
to flee the city and buy. what they
considered safe money.
Regarded as n of the only two
free" monies in the far east-the
Shanghai dollar is the other-the
Hongkong unit is only indirectly
linked to the British pound, al
though England controls the area.
The free" British pound rose 4
IL cents. to within less than 10 cents
of the Official" price. The Ca
madam dollar dipped 1=8 cent to 81
U. S. cents. The Swiss Franc lost

Smoothly

Nice for hanging lingerie, gloves,

clean, and are made in several
colors. 4
