Original Toronto Star caption: Traders at work juggle millions of dollars worth of currencies as they arrange deals for customers with counterparts around the world. These men; at the Bank of Nova Scotia; handle phones and teleprinters on a long desk with conveyor to move records. The world money system has been shaken this week by U.S. moves to protect the American dollar. Trading has continued in North America but has been halted in European currency markets.
