The tremendous drop in the value of the tael, from 111 pence in 1920 to the present rate of under 23 pence, and especially the recent slide, resulting in a ratio increase in the prices of imported goods, has necessitated the foreign firma placing their staffs on a gold basis, or its equivalent, to enable them to meet the rapid increase in the cost of living. The cost of living has increased approximate- ly by 30 per cent. in the last three months.-Ruter.
