REVIEW

Messrs. G. A. Harriman & Co., local agents for Messrs. Stanton Nelson & Co., Ltd., Singapore, have forwarded the following:----

With the opening of the New Year confidence appears to have returned to the rubber market in common with others. This con- fidence is apparently based, in the first place, on the feeling that the political outlook in Europe has been practically revolutionised by the agreement zeached between

France and " Italy, the 35- rangements "made for the inter- national policing of the Saar, and the successful handling of the Hungarian and Jugo-Slavian trouble. by Geneva. In the second H.K. Lands 4 per cent. Deben-place, as regards rubber itself, it is
