That the sharp drop in call money resulted from action to bolster confidence. rather than a normal easing credit. was indicated by time money rates, which followed 2.

SNOWDEN CLAIMS MONEY DIVISION ON UNFAIR BASIS (Continued From Page One) the equivalent of £10,000.000 more than she was allotted under the Dawes plan. Meanwhile, only small sums had been left to the lesser reparations creditors. CANNOT SACRIFICE Mr. Snowden declared the British government attaches the greatest possible importance to alterations in this respect because the House of Commons would never agree to further sacrifice of British interests.

The Chancellor complained especially of the increases allotted to Italy and Belgium. Taken literally. the speech of the British delegate poses a grave issue between Great Britain and the three other principal reparations creditors, France, Italy and Belgium. At the same time it tends to line up the smaller creditors on the British side. The spectre of revision of the Young plan, however, frightens majority of the interested powers at The Hague conference.

In addito covering, there was sonte buying here against sales in Liverpool, and a little commission house demand, but it was quite readily supplied on the advance to 18.98 October and 19.40 for March, or of about 8. to 12 points on the active positions. The market then became quiet, and prices sagged off during the middle of the day.

October reacted to 18.85 and March to 19.29, making the market about net unchanged to 3 points lower.

This carried prices back within 2 or 3 points of the early high levels, and the most active months were 6 to 9 points net higher at the close.
