circles today that the moratorium
would have little effect on confidence
in the concern.

pressed doubt that the monthly clear
ing of the bourse would occur before
the end of January, due to lack of
liquid assets at the command of small
operators, who find themselves sud
denly called upon for payment of the
entire sales of the stocks of the Banca
Italiana dl Sconto.
It is stated that If liquidation were
Insisted upon at present, several
small credit agencies would be forced
to close, unless they were backed by
