China's credit is currently high because Dr. Kung has begun to make good on a number of defaulted foreign loans, promises to take care of them all.

The President proposed a tax of 1? a gallon on exported molasses, to bring in $1,600,000 yearly, a 5% tax on the gross product of mines, a tax on sugar used by national industries. A "forcible bill of exchange" for all credit sales, costing up to $200 on a transaction involving $50,000, would yield another $1,000,000, and a 5% tax on capital leaving the island $1,100,000 more.
