Mr.. MCGEE is an old timer IN the

was a success in every detail.
The idea which Pitts had success

which it is attached His machine

AS THOMPSON SEES 1T.
Denver Mining Record.)

William B. Thompson, director Of
the Utah Copper company and other
metal-producing concerns, is quoted
as saying that he is firmly convinced
that the present low price of copper
has resulted in a volume Of consump-
ton never before approached in this
country. The Amalgamated people
he says are Of the opinion that the
consumption of copper the world over
is today slightly greater than the
production.
The fact that copper is selling
for u IL cents per pound has tend
ed to greatly expand its use" said
Mr.. Thompson. 'In other words, ats
cheapness recommends it,"
The sellers of electrolytic copper
outside of the United Metals Selling
company. and refer to the Guggen-
helms, vogelstein and the American
Metal company, are well sold into
September and at prices think
somewhat better than IL 1-2 cents
per pound None OF the m has any
spot copper
The 100000 pounds or more
which are being carried by the Unit
ed Metals Selling company consti-
tute the only large block of unsold
electrolytic copper in the American
market. do not think it is the pur-
pose OF the Amalgamated people to
use this large accumulation as a club
to force the price to a lower point
which has been rumored, as they are
quoted as stating that they expect
to sell this copper for at least 10
cents per pound.
4 do hot believe that the large
producing and selling interests viii
seek 10 remedy the present so-called
overproduction Of copper by agreeing
to any cooperative scheme Of curtail-
ment. II the price of copper recedes
from its present level a curtailment
on the part of individual highcost
properties will be inevitable. and this
restriction OF output in the aggre-
gate should amount to a very sub
stantial figure.
81 do not expect to see copper go
below 70 cents per pound. as ! know
where millions OF pounds would be
taken quickly at. that figure. We are
In a period Of business readjustment,
however. and the process is likely 20
