Tientsin, May 2.
The fall of the F.R.B. notes in North China continues. The new Japanese-fostered currency fell another point today, so that the premium on Chinese National currency now 24 per cent.
On today's unofficial market, it took 134 F.R.B. dollars to buy 100 Chinese National dollars. Yesterday, the cost of 100 Chinese National dollars was 133 F.R.B. dollars, a week ago it was 121.50, and three weeks ago 109.50 F.R.B. dollars.—Reuter.
