SENDING OF MONEY TO GERMANY.

In respouso to an inquiry «i Dominion reporter was informed yesterday that as to the sending of money to Germany and to the receiving of money from that 'country, tho War Regulations still applied. That was to say that money iouldi not bo sent to or received from Germany. , . . . With the declaration of war against Germany the Money Order Convention between Germany and England mx .her Dominions was broken, and though pence was signed 6ome timo ago, the convention has not yot been'renewed, nor will it n"ft)n be effective, so far as New Zealand" is concerned, until the-.advicj of:renewal lias boon received from the critisn Government. ■ It waa true, said the renortsr s informant, that trade between England and 'Germany had to some extent been renewed, but that did not mean that the Moner Order Convention had. been resumed between the two countries. It may surprise mnnv to know that the restrictions on ordinary correspondence have not yet been lifted. Every Mter ■ written in Now Zealand and Addressed to Gftrmnn.v has to lie fcrntwped bv the Government censor, who is acting oil behalf of the Defence Department.
