This will result in pric: levels in countries of low valuation |being immediately boosted to the llevel of world prices thus bringing on a new economic convulsion. “Th2 new bank however would do valuable service in re-establishing Germany's economie poise through re- |discounting bills of cxchange, advane- |ing loans on various German securi- {ties in the United States and guaran- teeing long credits for raw materials which later may be turned into finish- jed products.” '“Silent Mike” Performs i With Mitts for Kaceys “Silent Mike” Doran, the deaf mute | who is to box Teddy Russell in the ,main bout at Turner hall next Mon- |day evening, appeared last night at a |smoker following the regular meeting of Daly Council, K. of C, M > took on two local boys and his work with the mitts delighted a crowd of some 300 spectators.
