BAN ON RUSSIAN MONEY.
FRENCH DECREE RESCINDED.
PARIS, Aug. 23.
The decree made by the French Government in 1919, which prohibited the entry into France of Russian money and bank notes, has been abrogated, following a report of the Ministry of Finance, which says that the decree was primarily based on )x>litical grounds, and in view of the total collapse of the paper rouble on the Exchange,' there is no longer any need for enforcing it. The decree, it is pointed out, is ineffective in regard to the entry of metal coin, as the coin is easily brought into France in the shape of ingots.
