The Capi Tal is pretty thoroughly convinced three of the five men Whf will admin ister the United states Stock Exchange control Bill will be James m. Landis and George c. Mathews of the Trade commission and Ferdinand Pecora counsel for the Senate Bank ing committee. Stock Exchange officials and b a business organizations have been deluding the White House with re quests that two of the appointees be men versed in the ways of the mar Ket through Long and actual experience with it. The friends of the Bill at the same time have been tugging the presi Dent in the other direction with the argument that an undivided com Mission would function Best and that precedent be Given to men who favored enactment of the measure. They contend that when other regulatory bodies have been named representatives of the business regu lated have been excluded with pro vision made Lor the submission of adequate pleading when disrupted Points arise. The drive of the business interests is a continuation of the Campaign they began when the original Stock Exchange Bill came before Congress specifying that the Bill be administered by the Federal Trade commission Landis was a prime influence in the drafting and subsequent revisions of the Bill. He worked with the committees of Congress throughout their Long consideration of the Bill Anc wrote the modifications of the 193j securities act subsequently attached As a rider.

July 16 earliest Date Anderson can leave office London envoys Are today in response to great Britain s invitation to discuss the German de fault on Dawes and Young plan Loans. The question at Issue is a grave one for an Anglo German Trade War threatens with almost inevitable re actions on the dominions. Within a few hours of the arrival of the German group. Chancellor of the exchequer Neville Chamberlain will move in the House of commons second Reading of the Clearing House Bill a measure which empowers the an agreement with Germany is not reached before july 1, when the debt moratorium is establish a Clearing House to recoup British bondholders from Trade payments. Germany has hinted that in re Tun she will reduce imports not Only from Britain but from British dominions which Are not directly interested in the plight of British bondholders. It is profoundly hoped that the coming conversations will provide a Healing formula so that drastic measures can be avoided. A solution of the problem is admittedly not easy. Germany wants to increase her exports. As the Price of continuing Low payments the Ger Man envoys will probably press for an increased entry into British markets. The Gist of the German position is that unless she can Export More she cannot pay More. Already the German reach Sbano has struck another blow at imports into Germany. Foreign currency will now be available to German importers on a daily instead of a monthly allotment and the allot ment will be decreased daily. The reason Given is that the foreign Exchange Reserve is almost gone. Hon. John a backed . Premier of Manitoba. Or. Bracken is native of Seeley s Bay Leeds county Ontario and was born. June 22, 1883.

It is believed that Germany s object is to stay Britain s hand by driving a wedge Between the Mother country and the dominions since some of the dominions Are enjoying a favourable Trade balance with Ger Many and consequently would suffer More than Britain in an economic War. South Africa has already indicated that one does t care what action Germany takes but she unlike Canada and Australia is in a favourable position As far As Trade with Germany is concerned. Behind the threatened economic War which unless immediate Settle ment is reached will go into effect july 1, looms the que Pitlon of where the dominions stand in the event that Britain is involved in War. Constitutional lawyers say that it is impossible to Tell whether the do minions Are automatically at War when Britain becomes involved. This can be decided by the enemy alone. They say that the dominions even they declare their neutrality and contribute neither armies or Money Are subject to All the hazards of War in which Britain is involved. In this regard it is Felt that Ger Many s declaration to consider the British Empire As a single unit for economic purposes is the first test Case. Germany s threat is regarded As one of the most serious developments in International affairs. Coming at a time when Australia s High com which had led to the gun play.
