In this connection Mr. Morgen- thau wrote: "I think those three sections contributed materially to the success of the Silver Purchas- | ing Programme, and I believe their repeal would jeopardize the true purpose of the legislation".
The sections of the Silver Purchase Act which Senator Mc- Carran proposed to repeal concern (1) The authorized nationalisation of silver; (2) regulation or prohl bition of liver trading and (3) the 50 per coat tax on silver profits.-Renter.
It was mentioned by Inspector Nicoll, of the Traffic Department, that a Chinese girl was knocked down by the bus in Shanghai Street on March 22. The accident was the girl's own fault, as she ran in front of the vehicle.
