Rugby, Yesterday. The Bank rate was to-day reduced from four and a half to four per cent. The last time that this rate was declared was in October, 1925.
During the last year five changes were made at a rate varying from five to six and a half. It may be recalled that the latter high rate was due largely to the speculative boom, but it had the effect of bring- ing about a heavy deflation and re- teasing a large volume of surplus funda.
There is still uncertainty over the continued foreign demand for gold, but a definite influence which has decided the Bank to lower the official minimum is the fall in the discount rates in New York, and the indication that the Federal Reserve Bank will reduce its discount rate in due course.---British Wireless,
