It is probable that any sound solution

will prove expensive. The facts as to the circul-

ation of the notes outside Hong Kong are not

known; nor, apparently, are the conditions

which might lead to a flow back of notes for

encashment. Further, there are no sound silver

securities in which part of the note cover could

be invested. To invest in gold securities would

be to gamble on the gold price of silver, except to

the extent to which it could be safely assumed

that an irreducible minimum circulation would

always exist. And the large circulation in

China itself would clearly render a positive

opinion on that point difficult and dubious.
