Tientsin, To-day.

The Federal Reserve Bank cur- rency slumped in the "Black Mar- ket" again to-day, dropping to discount 18% per cent, below the National dollar.

With the latter quoted at 3% pence, the F.R.B. yuan, which is not freely convertible into foreign currency, has thus the equivalent of 3-1/16 pence.

The heavy discount on the Ja- panese-sponsored currency; it is believed here, is mainly due to a general flight of capital involving purchases of National dollar notes with which to acquire foreign cur- rency for hoarding.

Some small revival of imports of essential commodities is also said to be a contributory factor. -Reuter.
