NOTICE CONCERNING THE INTER- VALIDATION NALLY ISSUED SECURITIES IN AUSTRIA
For the purpose of restoring an orderly state of affairs with re- gard to the intemal securities issued in Austria the Ministry of Finance has been empowered, in terms of the Austrian Securities Validation Law, Federal Gazette No. 188/54, to. call up by the official announcement in notice column of the Wiene Zeitung those Austrian Schil Hinge and Reichsmark securities, issued in Austria, for which a validation procedure is deemed necessary.
Securities, deemed to be sub- ject to this validation procedure, require to be registered with ong of the following registratios offloes:

Other official attempts to curb the rise included the increase on forward buying margins from 50 to 75 per cent, but this had little effect on the buying spres. Since Monday the banks have entered the market as buyers trying to cushion the downward trend, but so far this has not had much appreciable effect.
The situation is not regarded as dangerous by Ananciers or by the Treasury. Plenty of money is still secking investment, and once certain over speculative
positions have been eliminated brokers expect the market to recover and remain healthy.
The level it will, find, however, is expected to be somewhat lower than this year's peak.-Reuter.

OCCUPIES HIS PALACE
Seville, May 12
The removal by the Vatican of all effective authority from Cardinal Pedro Segura, the--14- year-old Archbishop of Seville who has become famous for his outspoken criticism of the Spanish Government, of the Falange and even of General Francisco Franco himself, has created a curious situation in this ancient city.
While the Cardinal continues to occupy the Archbishop's Palace, a large and pleasant building situated just across the square from the Cathedral, to preach in the Cathedral and to preside at fm-. portant religious ceremonies, all the powers of the Archbishop are wielded by Monsignor Jose Maria Bueno Monreal, the Archbishop-Coadjutor appoint- ed by the Vatican last November.
