SHANGHAI MURDER
OFFICIAL INQUIRY

MADAME SUN THREATENED
On Saturday, it was generally thought that every- thing had been nicely arranged, with the minimum of discussion. The dollar was to have been stabilised at 4.05 to the pound. To-day, there is a feeling of gloom, particularly among the French, who are the strongest advocates of stabilisation and do not see much hope of progress in any direction unless the violent fluctuations of currencies cease to be a factor in international trade.
America's refusal is taken to indicate the in-connexion with the assassination compatibility of President Roosevelt's internal pro gramme with Mr. Cordell Hull's policy of international cooperation in breaking the depression.'
