NEW YORK, March 12.-British
efforts to obtain more dollars for the
allied war chest by Tightening for
eign exchange control brought an
other wide decline today in the
free" sterling rate as the market
sought to adjust itself to the new
rules.
The unofficial quotation for the
British currency, determined by
local supply and demand, dropped
about cents to around $38l, the
lowest since the decline in foreign
exchanges early in the war last
autumn.
Part of the days loss was recov-
cred.
The British control buys sterling
at S402la and sells at S40312. ~
To aid war needs for exchange,
England last week issued orders
British Empire exports of rubber,
tin, jute, wool and other key prod
ucts must be paid for at the Official
exchange rate or in certain foreign
currencies, including the dollar. ia
Mainly affected were huge Amer
ican purchases of rubber and tim
Exchange men pointed out import
ers would have to pay for these at
the official exchange rate, rather
than the lower open-market quota
ton
The free" rate had ranged around
1898 to s396 before the regulations
were announced.
Exchange dealers said the free
market would shrink, since the
change would shift a substantial
! part of the business to the official
control. The saving on the unofi.-
clal rate, they noted, prompted inI-
| porters to buy sterling in the open
market for settlement of trade ac.-
counts. -
! The regulations were scheduled
to become effective March 25, with
understanding in exchange circles
British authorities probably would
be lenient in granting periods Of
grace where conditions justified.
Pressure on the free rate started
Immediately, however, as holders
sought to liquidate in anticipation of
a thinner market. -
The French franc sagged in SYM
pathy with the pound. At one time
1t was quoted at 21614 cents, of
.027s of cent. 80
