"When we repeat the great pledge to our country and to our ilag, it must be our deep convic- tion that we pledge as well our work, our will and, if necessary, our lives."
The President, declared that in the crisis, Americans have a duty com- comparable to 1776. In 1776 we waged war on behalf of a great tiple that the Government should

Axis Exchange Manipulation In New York
SPECIAL TO THE "TELEGRAPH”.
TOKYO, July 4 (Domel).-The recent zooming of Japanese Dollar bonds on the New York market despite the continued strain on Japanese-American relations
was
attributed by Mr Telji Katsuta, Director of the Industrial Researchi Association, to the extra-market manipulations by Axis realdents in the United States in an effort to their funds from the Freez-
miyab of June 14..
Ing Act of

In signed article Yomiuri," Mr Katsuta asserts that the Axis nationals have apparently been taking dollar funds out of the United States in the form of Japanese bonds
the consequent rise in with New York quotations over the Japan- ese market level which has been pegged at
at Yen 350.300 since the Government imposed a tax of 6.5 per cent, on the bonds.
The recent gain is a complete re versal from the past tendencies, Mr Katsuta points out, recalling that the quotations fell from $100 in 1936 to $72 following the outbreak of the China war in July, 1937, and also dropped to $50 after the announce ment of the tripartite alliance in September, 1940.
