Contrary to general expectation a further sharp break in price has taken place this week following on renewed weakness in the modity and stock exchanges in America." The main adverse - fluences there still appear to be. exchange anxieties with special references to the Gald Bloc, 8 well as rumours of industrial trou- bles. Moreover, the International altuation is no clearer, and a gen eral feeling of apprehension ap pears to have invaded the finan- cial centres of the world, accen- tuated in the case of London by the Pepper fallures and fears - of a genéral election.

As regards rubber itself, the statistical position must be regard- ed as sound in so far as produc tion is concerned, and a serious decline in consumption is the only economic factor which could niti- mately upset calculations,
