Big U.S. Purchase Outwits Japanese CHINA'S SILVER ON WAY TO AMERICA
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 (UP). It has been learned that the United States Treasury has contracted for the purchase of 6,000,000 ounces of Chinese Govern- ment silver.
In addition, the United States will provide China with $2,000,- 000 American currency for the purchase of United States materinis or to bolster their national currency.
