Iff BANK IS
FOUNDED IN
SUNNY ITALY
ROME, Italy, Sept. 25 (by Associat
ed Press).—King Victor Emanuel,
during an audience granted to John
H. Fahey, former president of the
hcamber of commerce of the United
States, and to Alfred Dennis, com
mercial attache to the American em
bassy, spoke at some length about a
new bank which has recently been
founded in Italy. It is called El Banke
del Reduce (The National Bank of
War Survivors) and its special ob
ject is to give credit to all ex-com
batants, helping them to start afresh
in business; assisting also their wid
ows and orphans, or the parents and
sisters of those who died during the
conflict, to cal! of whom is also giv
en a discount of one per cent on all
operations.
The king, himself, took a personal
interest in the development of the
new bank and invested 50,000 lire in
its shares, which he presented to an
other war institution, that of the or
phans of fallen soldiers.
The king is anxious that the new
bank should become a link between
Italy and Italian war survivors who
live abroad, of whom there are over
350,000 in America alone and an even
greater number in Argentina and
Brazil.
Robert E. Lee graduated second in

IMPORTERS IN
CHINA FACING
BIG LOSSES
SHANGHAI, Sept. 25 (by Associated
Press).—Both British and American
chambers of commerce • in Shanghai
have declined to take action that
might relieve the plight of the Chi
nese importers, said to be facing big
losses estimated at about $1.00,000
000 due to swift fluctuations of the
rates of money exchange.
In an appeal addressed to the two
foreign commercial bodies the Chinese
explained that the fall of the price
of silver in recent months had brought
many of them face to face with bank
ruptcy. Piece goods dealers in parti
cular asked for extensions of con
tracts made prior to January 1. They
asked for the co-operation of the-Brit
ish and American chambers of com
merce.
Both foreign bodies held that they
could not “associate themselves with
any movement that threatens the sanc
tity of the written contract.”
