CASH CRISIS THREATENED IN ST. JOHNS
Bankers Refuse to Underwrite Deficit of Newfoundland.
ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland. May 25—(UP)—The government of Newfoundland, faced with a grave financial crisis, endeavored tonight to ward off default on national bonds.
The most critical period of the present difficulty—due to failure to obtain an underwriter for the Newfoundland $8,000,000 five per cent untaxable loan — appeared to be scheduled for tomorrow, when banks will re-open after a holiday.
Premier Sir Richard Squires and the finance ministry were w-orking determinedly to avert a more serious situation. but there was considerable nervousness among the public, where It was generally believed that only the aid of the British government could end the crisis.

Judges, attorneys, and lawyers now active are members ot the collegiate legal bod).
Canada. Bids were invited four weeks ago but there were no responses —an unprecedented event in history of Newfoundland's self-government.
The closing of lenders for the loan on May 22 resulted in the sending of notice to the Ministry of Finance that no banker had bid for the loan. The next morning thc bank of Montreal declined to accept the government’s checks. The first check was for the railway and dock laborers payroll, amounting to more than $500.
ACCOUNT OVERDRAWN
Later the government's current account with the bank of Montreal, the official bank, was overdrawn by about $1,250,000. Government checks were refused by the trade on Saturday.
After a confernce between the Premier and the Minister of Finance, Instructions were Issued to governmemnt departments to discontinue issuance of checks until further notice. The result was an intensification of consternation among the public.
The gravity of the situation caused considerable fear that the i re-openlng of the government savings bank and other banks tomorrow — today was a holiday —would result in runs.
CALM FEARS
The breathing spell afforded the government today, however, permitted an opportunity to calm Ihe fears of the public and to push efforts for solution of the problem.
The most serious phase was that half of the yearly interest of $1,387,00*) due on the government’ bonds on June 30 had not been provided for. Default of this payment appeared to be Inevitable unless the British go\ ern*
» hlcb did not seem likely in the immediate future although such aid might be forthcoming later.

ia.
PARIS, May 25—(UP) — Rumors were circulated In diplomatic elides today that Mme. Magda Lu-pescu was fighting for a place on the throne of Rumania beside King Carol Ii, with whom she lived In exile In France.
