ECONOMIC INQUIRY
BELGIAN INVESTIGATOR
LONDON, April 25.
M. Maurice Frere, the Belgian economist who has been asked by.the Prime Minister of Belgium, M. Van Zeeland, to undertake preliminary investigations for the economic inquiry with which M. Van Zeeland has been entrusted by Britain and France, is in Paris, and will leave soon for Berlin and Holland, to continue his inquiries. He has already been to London.
The Paris correspondent of "The Times" says: "There is no foundation for the suggestion that M. Van Zeeland and M. Frere are trying to prepare the way for a new world economic conference. M. Frere's task, rather, is to examine the chains now imprisoning world trade, in the hope of finding links weak enough to be broken without setting in motion ponderous conference machinery."
