Although bank shares and other Australian securities -ivere easier this morning there was no marked drop in values. A buyer came forward for Australias, but at £11 17/6 his bid was well under recent sale prices. Nationals of Australasia were offered at £14 10/. and the cont. issue at £7 2/. New South Wales, after a sale yesterday at £3S, were still on offer at the same figure. The merger proposals have stiffened the market for Robinson Ice after a sale at £1 5/9 sellers raised their limits to £1 7/. Government'stocks were asked for at late rates, but there were no sellers.
