selling of securities here and some matur

of possible gold exports. Bankers do not
look for an overflow of gold while money

while the Interior demand keeps up. The
question of treasury relief for the money
market Is complicated by the high rat. for
foreign exchange, which carries the Inti

market supplies of money might initiate
gold exports. The September foreign trad,
statement carried some reassurance as to
the exchange situation. The decrease of
