APPEAL BY FINLAND
FOREIGN CREDIT NEEDED PAYMENT FOR MUNITIONS (Reed. Jan. 10, 9 a.m.) HELSINKI, Jan. 9. The Prime Minister, Dr. Risto Ryti, appealing for foreign credit, said: “We are a peace-loving nation. Hitherto we paid little attention to the munitions industry. Now we must obtain munitions from abroad, frequently at high prices. “Our exports are sufficient to provide only part of the expenditure. The national income is rapidly sinking. We have reached a stage at which foreign credit is essential."
