Seeing that Fensplao (ie., Mukden small dollar paper), depended for its value not on capital reserve, understood to be one-fortieth of the total lasuo, but on the name of the autocrat, the basis of trust was then violently shaken."
The next blow came through the resignation of Civil Governor Wang, whose capacity as a finan- cier was almost universally sc- knowledged. Besides, he stood for pence and retrenchinent: his withdrawal from the Government
meant extravagance and war. Moreover, the rebellion revealed a lack of unity at headquarters, along with a scarcity of capable leaders.

An ac- cumulation of causes has" thus quickened the declining,paper.dol- lar, which had already lost one half its Tormer value. Within ‘a' fortnight the Mukden dollar drop- ped from 33 cents (Mex) tó 22. One immediate cause of this sud- den fall may be the withdrawal at short notice by the Government Bank of its loans to traders of all kinds..
A Forced Loan.
As if such a drop wore not a sufficiently heavy set-back to busi- ness and especially to those with fixed capital or incomes, we have "now to face. a still more drastic test of endurance. The command has gone forth that provincial debts are to be paid by borrowing from the citizens of Lower Man- churia no less a sùm than Mexican $50,000,000. The loan is to be re- paid at 6 per cent in 1928 (7.1933). A detailed assessment. of city and country has been 'is- sued. In other words, the people are being ordered to find for the Government, in addition to all other, taxes, $200,000,000. in Muk- den paper, according to the rate more or less prevalent just now."
It is a curious clrcumstance that Civil Governor. Mo, who is evidently attempting a herculean task, informed a Japanese deputa-' tion the other day that the "total amount of Fengpiao in circulation was $210,000,000. The deputation had inquired whether the reported total was correct viz., $500,000,000, If the lower figure is assumed to state the fact, one wonders how much paper will be left in cir- culation after the debt bonds have been taken up.
