u. 5. Funds 10 Be Shifted
AT Free Sterling Rate
BY the Associated Press.

oS bue hSSOSldtcu 1IccS
NEW YORK, June 20.-Amer-
leans with funds in London no
longer can convert them into dol
lars to take out of England at the
official rate of $403 to the pound,
a cable received by New York banks
from London said today.
The only way to convert preWar
sterling balances into dollars is at
the free sterling" rate of around
1886 to the pound.
Last fall when Great Britain laid
down restrictions on foreign ex-
change, Americans, despite capital
export barriers, were permitted to
send funds to the United States at
the official pound rate and in the
past nine months most prewar bal
ances were moved here. Individuals
who didn't take advantage of the
opportunity, however, now will have
to be satisfied with the less favor
able free" market conversions.

The faithful little Judge always
seems confident that he will be
returned to his office, without even
making campaign speeches or lis
tening to those who do, just as II
to say: Il can't be bothered"
But say, what's going on here?
Is the tide changing? Almost
everyWhe2a 1 turn I'm hearing
such statements as: We want some
young blood in office, Vote your

Now if they practice what they

the first half of August is a ques-
