QUESTION OF ADVISERS
British Wirelesß. RUGBY. April 21. The Financial Secretary to the Treasury, Major W. E. Elliot, was asked in the House of Commons whether bankers or other authorities on monetary affairs would attend the Ottawa Conference for the discussion and formulating of a common Imperial monetary policy. In reply, Major Elliot said he did not know what steps, if any, were being taken by the Dominions, but so far as the United Kingdom was concerned it was not proposed to issue such invitations. The British delegates would be well acquainted with the views of bankers and economists on the subject. PLEA FOE PREFERENCES DOMINIONS' INTERESTS. MUTUAL CONCESSIONS URGED. LONDON, April 21.
