CURRENCY PACT?

London, Jan. 6.

M. Paul van Zeeland, former Belgian Frime Minister and famous economist, arrived in Lon

don this morning. When

ques-

tioned regarding the report that he was visiting London to discuss the question of a currency part em- bracing Britain, America, France, Germany and Italy, M. van Zeer land shook his head and declined to answer.

The Belgian economist is ex- pected to stay in London for two days, when he will see the Prime Minister, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, and Treasury officials to discuss the resulta of his mission to dis- cover new means of encouraging International trade. It is not yet known whether he will pre- sent "his report to the British Government while he is here. It is considered more probable that he will confine himself to a dis- cussion-of points arising out-of-his- mission, and that the report itself will be presented simultaneously to the British and French govern ments, *

Meanwhile all forecasts of the contents of the report should be treated with the greatest reserve.

Following the bomb-throwing In- cident in Nanking Road, when the

tive presented the following set of Commander-in-Chief's representá-

conditions to the Shanghai Muhi- cipal Council:

1. Japanese troops, when neces- sary, shall be allowed to pass through the International Settic- ment any time without advance notice to the Council.

2. The Council shall, hereafter, take energetic steps to prevent a recurrence of such unfortunate in- cidents.

3. In the event of a recurrence of almallar incidents, the Japanese army will take independent and effective measures, and,

4. To help the Council to maintain peace and order in the International Settlement, the Japanese army, when it considers such action necesary shall, take independent steps to investigate and examine suspects, and other- wise act within the Settlement.
