India's desire to put its business on modern bunking basis, to develop the country's Industry, Increase Its wealth and extend Its credits has caused progressive East Indian men to move for a change In monetary system, particularly as related to silver, because it Is realized that under the old system the country could never attain a modern commercial basis. "English financiers and statesmen." said Mr. Ferry, "were greatly surprised at the consternation that the Indian, commission report caused among Canadian and United States mining men and investors.
