ITALIAN SHIP CONCERN GETS MORATORIUM RIGHT Financial Crisis of Banca Italiana di Sconto Has Effect on Other Enterprises in donntry. By the Associated Press. 4 ROME, January 6.—A moratorium was granted to the Societa Anonima Lloyd Mediterraneo, whose executive council yesterday made application to be allowed to take advantage of the moratorium decree issued by the gov- ernment, December 28, in_ connection with the financial crisis of the Banca Italiana di Sconto. The Mediterraneo company is a shipping concern, found- ed in 1918. Bellef was expressed in financial circles today that the moratorium would have little effect on confidence in the concern. Some financial leaders, however, ex- pressed doubt that the monthly clear- ing of the bourse would occur before the end of January, due to lack of liquid assets at the command of small operators, who find themselves sud- denly called upon for payment of the entire sales of the stocks of the Banca Italiana dl Sconto. It is stated that if liquidation were BANCA DI SCONTO TOPAY DIPLONATS Officials at Rome to Receive Refund of All De- posits. By the Associated Press. : LONDON, January 6—The Rome correspondent of the London Times’ understands that arrangements wiil® be made for immediatély refunding to diplomatic officials in Rome any de- Pposits they have in the Banca Ital- fana di Sconto. This, he says, will especially affect the American em- bassy, which appears to have several million lire on deposit with the bank. From its Milan correspondent the London Times learns that the Ameri- can ambassador at Rome has had a meeting with the commissioners ap- pointed to assume the duties of the Sconto bank's board of management. The discussion is represented as hav- > ing been aimed at establishing some means of guaranteeing deposits made » by Americans at the New York agency - of the bank, said to amount to about 65,000,000 lire. The ambassador, ac- cording to the correspondent, told the” commissioners that his government is * prepared to collaborate with the Italian government for an early and. fair settiement. The total foreign investments of the bank are declared to amount to 3,000,000,000 lire. Liquid Assets Fortheoming. By the Associated Press. ROME, January 6.—Considerable rogress was made today in thqg liquidation of the Rome bourse. Suf- ficlent liquid assets appear to_ be forthcoming with which to effect clearances so that normal business is expected to resume tomorrow and the deadlock lifted. A limited number of quotations were given out today, even though it was a holiday. The assets of the Societa Anonima Lioyd Mediterraneo are given in its petition to the court for permission to take advantage of the moratorium decree as equal to the liabilities— 400,000,000 lire. This was the same figure of the liabilities given in the June statement of the concern, Which then showed an unfavorable balance of 27,000,000 lire.

NEW YORK, January 6.—Charging that the General Electric Company has fastened a monopoly in electric bulbs on this country which yields a “tribute” of $100,000,000 a year, Sam- uel Untermyer, counsel for the Lock- wood legislative committee, shifted its - inquiry today into the electric light business. “If we are right in our contention.” Mr. Untermyer said, “this monopoly that has had us in its grip in one form or another for fifty-five yvears is ex- acting extortionate tribute from the people of the United States. “Although the first patent was granted in 1877 and expired in 1894, I think we will show you that in de- flance of the judgment of the court the grip of the General Electric Com- pany on the bulb business of the whole country is stronger and firm- er than it has ever been in its his- sy Mr. Untermyer sald he had invited officials of the company to put their DUTCH LINERS BOUGHT.
