4 R.A.N. SHIPS OVERSEAS to JUNE 194 0 URING the First Ten Months Of
CHAPTER 4 R.A.N. SHIPS OVERSEAS TO JUNE 194 0 URING the first ten months of the war, those Australian ships not D retained on the home station were employed in Imperial dispositions in widely separated areas . The first six months found Perth in Central American waters, mainly engaged in the dual task of protecting trade — especially the important tanker traffic in the Caribbean—and preventin g the escape of German merchant ships sheltering in neutral ports of th e islands and the Isthmus . Last of the three expansion-program cruiser s acquired from Britain, she had commissioned at Portsmouth on the 29th June 1939 as H .M.A. Ship under "Fighting Freddie " Farncomb, a studious , coolly-efficient officer whose nickname, bestowed during the war, reflected the confidence and esteem of the lower deck . Perth sailed from Portsmouth on the 26th July for Australia via th e Panama Canal, and reached New York, where she represented Australi a at the World Fair, on the 4th August. On the 21st of the month, after twelve days of American hospitality, she arrived at Kingston, Jamaica, an d was to have sailed for Panama on the 23rd, but in the early morning o f that date Farncomb received a signal sent to the Admiralty by the Com- mander-in-Chief, America and West Indies—Vice-Admiral Meyrick' — asking that Perth might remain on the station . Farncomb thereupon can- celled his sailing arrangements, thus anticipating an Admiralty signa l received later in the day directing him to "return Kingston and awai t further orders " . -

Before the Plaza: the Exchange Rate Stabilization Attempts of 1925, 1933, 1936 and 1971
Working Paper Before the Plaza: The Exchange Rate Stabilization Attempts of 1925, 1933, 1936 and 1971 Barry Eichengreen, Ph.D. George C. Pardee and Helen N.

This paper is a work in progress and has not been submitted for editorial review. 1. Introduction The Plaza Accord is controversial.1 One the one hand it is hailed as “perhaps the high- water mark of international economic co-operation over the past 40 years” (in the words of Beattie 2010). On the other it is impugned as having had little effect on currency values, as heightening instability rather than reducing it (by causing the dollar to overshoot in the opposite direction), and even as having been indirectly responsible for the Japanese crisis and lost decade (as recounted if not exactly endorsed in IMF 2011). Exchange rate stabilization negotiations and agreements are always controversial. They are economically complex and politically fraught, since rhetoric is easy to offer while commitments are difficult to keep. They tap into deep-seated beliefs about whether markets produce desirable equilibria and, if not, whether intervention can improve observed outcomes. -

Bu sayede Anka- ra Hükûmeti Musul üzerinde egemenlik hakk› kurma amac›n› güttü. Buna karfl›l›k olarak da Amerikan Hükûmeti oluflmakta olan yeni Türkiye’nin tam ba¤›ms›zl›k talebini Lozan Konferans›’ nda destekle- di. Yeni Türk hükümeti Amerika’n›n Ac›k Kap› politikas›n› Avrupa emperyalizminden daha hazmedi- lebilir buldu. Bu yüzden Amerika’n›n Ortado¤u Aç›k Kap› politikas› bölgede zor kullanarak de¤il, tam tersine Avrupa emperyalizminden çekinen Ankara Hükûmeti’nin iste¤i ve deste¤iyle uyguland›.

The Turkish nationalists who were fighting for independence became an unlikely ally of this policy. During the Lausanne Conference in 1922 and 1923 the nationalist government in Ankara granted the Chester concessions which permitted the United States to exploit the mineral resources in and around Mosul. -

The Asama Maru Incident of January 21, 1940
The Asama Maru Incident of January 21, 1940 Prepared for Presentation at The Thirteenth Annual Ohio Valley History Conference Austin Peay State University Clarksville, Tennessee 37044 October 16-18, 1997 By Chester G. Dunham 202 G Street, SW Washington, D.C. 20024-4336 Telephone 202-554-4665 1 INTRODUCTION On September 1, 1939, German armies invaded Poland after having occupied Austria and Czechoslovakia during the preceding year and a half. Although Britain and France had assured Poland of assistance in just such a crisis and had repeatedly warned Germany not to launch an attack against her neighbor, German forces overwhelmed the Polish defenses. Britain and France, therefore, declared war against Germany on September 3. Thus began World War II. Throughout the autumn of 1939 and on into the following winter and despite the rapid and complete defeat of the Polish armed forces, British and French land and air forces remained quiescent on Germany's western front.. Similarly, the German land and air forces engaged in no offensive actions against their western enemies. Journalists began to call this strange situation “the phony war.” Nevertheless, at sea, German and British naval forces engaged in serious and deadly combat from the start. On September 3, a German V-boat torpedoed the British passenger liner Athenia of 13,500 tons with a loss of 112 lives, 28 of whom were American citizens. During the next five months, 119 British merchant ships, totaling more than a half million tons, were lost by enemy action, most by V-boat activity, some
