A REVIEW OF THE NATION'S FINANCIAL

ů

POSITION.

(Continued from paşı 3.)

the present Government were to ask the country to lend it any more money, having done just what those who said that it was not going to- use the money for the purpose that it named put forward as an objection to subscribing. It was diffcult enough to get money subsefibed before it will be practically im- possible now. As mbar people re member, the final result of the loan

1

in cash subscriptions, including Treasury bills, was the sale of a nominal amount of 575 millions in Funding Loan and Victory Bonds, and when allowance is made for the prices at which these two issues were offered, the actual amount realised comes down to only 475 millions. This in itself was

fairly pitiful

result vben we consider the enormous amounts of money that are now on deposit at the banks and in the pockets of the people, but it does not show the full extent of the failure, because includ- ed in this total are subscriptions to over 110 millions, nominal, which were made by the banks under pressure from the Government în order that the full extent of the failure of the loan might be in some degree veled. By this discreditable piece of camouflage the Government was perpetuating in peace the system of financial eyewash which had some justificatiod while the war Tasted. but it is useless and only discreditable now that peace has come and we - have got to face the facts. The cash

by the banks is something over 90 millions, and so the actual subscrip- tions made by genuine investors, in many cases out of money that was

Against this we can set 50 millions that had already been raised - by the sale of National War Bonds before their issue was stopped, and perhaps 70 millions that the Govern ment may be able to get out of sales of War Savings Certificates, the steadily continued demand for which is one of the few satisfactory, features in our financial outlook. It thus appears that 220 millions. at least will have to be taken, unless other measures are adopted,. out of the so-called Funding Loan to enable this Government of wasters- to make both ends meet, leaving con- siderably less than 300 millions to meet Habilities which will fall duc during the current financial year, amounting, according to Mr. Cham- berlain's own statement when he asked the House to authorise the loan, to some 1,800 millions. In other words, the funding operation has been an almost complete failure, and the only prospect that appears to lie before the Government is one of continuing to finance by Treasury bills or Ways and Means advances-- or any other kite-flying method by
