Mr. W. H. Field, M.P., lias been probing into the causes for the alleged hoarding of gold by Chinese, and why (in one case) Chinese should pay 20/(5 for a sovereign. He reported the matter to the Minister for Finance (the Hon. James Allen), and in reply the Minister stated: "I have enquired from the banks, and found that there has been a moderate inquiry by Chinese for gold. The banks do not pay it out in any but quite small amounts to Chinese who are customers, and not at all to those who do not bank with them. As a matter of faet, the Proclamations prohibit the export of gold, and I do not see, therefore, that the Chinese, except by smuggling it out, can take any large quantity away." £SO in Cash Prizes will be distributed among the users of "Desert Gold" Tea.
