Conversion of German Government Loans.

Wellington, 9th March, 1927.

INFORMATION has now been received from the German Consul for New Zealand that German Government bonds which were acquired by their present owners after the 1st July, 1920, can now be presented for exchange into bonds of the Loan Liquidation Debt on the basis of R M. 25 (i.e., gold marks) for each M. 1,000 of the old loan.

The period during which applications will be considered commenced on the 1st instant and will close on the 30th June, 1927. After that date bonds which have not been presented will become valueless.

Applications from holders of such bonds living in New Zealand and its dependencies or in Western Samoa should be addressed to the German Consul for New Zealand, P.O. Box 1300, Wellington.

The position in regard to bondholders who have had uninterrupted ownership of their bonds from before the 1st July, 1920, was set out in a notification published in the New Zealand Gazette No. 30, dated 13th May, 1926, at page 1293.

J. W. MACDONALD,
Public Trustee, as Controller, New Zealand Clearing Office.

Now, the Public Trustee hereby calls upon such owner within six months of the date of the publication of this notice in this Gazette to establish to the satisfaction of the Public Trustee his title to the said land, and if he fails or neglects so to do the Public Trustee will exercise as regards the said land the powers and authorities granted to him in and by the Public Trust Office Act, 1908 (Part II), and its amendments.
