Reduction

In Bank Rate

LONDON, April 21. (APJ-An- other reduction in the bank rate- the fourth in two months-was an- nounced today by the Bank of Eng- land, the cut being from three and one half to three percent.

The purpose of the reduction, it was announced, was to check the influx oi foreign funds for short term investments, which are mov- able on brief notice and so may prove a disturbing factor in the money market. Already this influx has caused a rise in sterling to the point where it handicaps export- ere.

The bank rate stood at six per- cent from the time Great Britain suspended the gold standard last fall until February 18, when it was cut to five. March 10 it was reduced to four percent and March 17 to three and one half.

Market men expressed the belief that the new reduction would div- ert much short term money to long term securities and would facilitate conversion operations.

The stock exchange had antici- pated the move by marking up gilt-edged securities during the life of the three and one half per- cent rate. Today's announcement had the effect of steadying quotat-

ions at the levels to which recent rises had taken them. (Canadian Press) MONTREAL, April '21-
