TANK COMPANY
TOOK A HAND
In the Buying Of Turpentine, and Exporters
Hustled

For over half an hour yesterday aft
ernoon the Quotation Committee of the
Savannah Board of Trade wrangled
over what an official price should be,
and did not reach a conclusion until
after a contest such as takes place daily
upon the big exchanges in the battles
of the bulls and bears. 1t was the
most spirited meeting the committee
has held in a long time, and one that
will not soon be forgotten.
The naval stores market, and par
ticularly the price of spirits of tur-
pentine, had reached a point in its
downward fight that brought out the
fighting qualities of it's friends, who
felt that support of a substantial sort
should come, and that at once. me
opening at IL o'clock was firm, at ASH
cents, sales 300 casks, and the closing
steady and unchanged, sales go casks.
The rub was as to the Closing tone.
The exporters did not consider the mar
ket as strong as the factors did, and
there was a desire in some quarters to
post the tone as indicating weak
market.
Mr.. John r. Young, president of the
National Tank and Export Company,
brought matters to a focus by bidding
ASH cents for the Savannah stock of
turpentine This impressed exporters
with the probability that the market
was to have good friend in the tank
company, and getting their cue from
this, the exporters Immediately sour
ried out and swept the market at ASH
cents. Previous to this, however, large
sales had been made by factors, so
that at the higher level a great deal
of turpentine did not remain to be
taken. The developments after the
closing indicated that there had been
an awakening in the camps of factors,
and that if the market goes any lower,
il will do so in the face of the strong
est sort of resistance.
Mr.. Young, as the head of the tank
company, which proposes to see that
the price of turpentine does not drop
below it's value without finding buyer
on the spot in discussing the tusele on
the Board of Trade said he regarded
the action of exporters in going out
and cleaning up the market after he
bid 45Ac for the offerings as COM
plete vindication of his position that

turpentine is worth more than they
are apparently willing to pay for 1t. Il
claimed it was worth 45Ac, and they
not only said 1 was right, but more
than right, for they went out and
bought ii at a higher figure"
"As I said some time ago" contin-
ued Mr.. Young, II consider this cFop
of turpentine worth SOC per gallon in
view of existing crop conditions and
the demand all over the country The
domestic demand was never better
and the product finds foreign EXPORT
ers ready to take it, The tank com
pany will be the friend of operators in
UNFOLDING the market. 1t will not al
low the price in the Savannah market
to go below 45c. and probably not that
low"
Mr.. w. C. Powell, president of the
Consolidated Naval Stores Company.
thinks the price has gone low enough.
He too, is a large stockholder in the
National Tank and Export Company,
and confirmed Mr.. Young in the as
sertion that that company will not al
low turpentine to go below 45c in this
market. I'VE will either take it, or our
customers will hold it until the de-
mand is such as to absorb 1t at fair
prices. The pressure upon the mar
ket has been most too strong, and
believe a reaction is in order"
During the afternoon the talk that
the tank company was in the market
spread throughout the naval stores
district, and there was a stirring of
exporters which indicated that some
thing was up. The tank people have
a place to put what they buy, and
they now claim they will fulfill their
mission of friend to the operator and
the market. Last year the tank com
pany pursued the tactics it resumed
yesterday, and was the direct cause of
higher prices being paid for turpen-
tine.
Discussing the market further Mr..
Young made it clear that his purpose
is not to squeeze" exporters, or make
any pay more than turpentine Is
actually worth. However, when the
market gets to a price the company
he heads considers cheap, exporters
must pay more if they get the offer
ings. He said all he desired was to
see the price where conditions war
ranted.
Mr.. Young as president of the
National Tank and Export Company
also represents the producers. In fact
he is producer himself and as pres-
dent of the tank company and a pro-
ducer will protect both the factors
and producers interests.

Dickinson gets out these reports at in
tervals during the season, and the care

of exceptional value, and, therefore,
sought by the trade.
On the whole, Mr.. Dickinson's report
points to very strong position in cot

ing:
The acreage planted shows an in
