Source of ivory Supply.

During a recent visit to the London
docks the queen OF England was in
formed that the stock of ivory then
shown represented, on an average, the
annual slaughter of some 10000
African elephants. This statement has
been contradicted. One importer states
that ar least S5 per cent of the supply
is dead ivory mainly obtained from
boarded stores Of African chiefs. who
are shrewd enough 10 put their com.
modties on the market only in drib
let's. The most interesting part OF
the letter is, however. the statement
that the great bulk OF this boarded
ivory is obtained from elephant
cemeteries spots met with here and
there in the jungle, where elephants
have resorted FOR centuries to die
Much OF the ivory that comes TO the
market may. therefore, according 10
this letter, be several hundred years
old
