Brazil Controls
Its German Population

Rio De Janeiro, April 15.-(By mail
Stories to the effect that German col
onists settled in the three southermost
states of Brazil are sufficiently numer
ons and organized to dictate terms at
the bayonet s point should the occasion
ever arise were made to appear ridicul-
GUS by the publication today of stats,
tics showing that the total number of
Germans immigranting to Brazil since
1928 is less than $4,000.
Up to the time of the fall OF the EN-
ire in 1889 only 1887 Germans had en-.
tered Brazilian ports. From 1883 to 1919
this number was increased by 56,i02
making total of 131 ,4S9. The census re-
tulns gives the descendants of these
Germans as Brazilians-maybe hyph
enated" but Brabilians.

An American Silver Market

The high cost Of shipping. including
war risk. 10 London IS bringing about,
slowly but steadily. a change in the
movement Of silver from this country.
All efforts previously made 20 establish
a direct market for silver with the
countries IN the Far East-whIch are
the largest buyers OF this precious
metal have proved unsuccessful on
account o. the hold which the English
bankers ard silver brokers had on the
market However, economic conditions
gre stronger than traditions.
At present. standard silver in Lon
don is quoted at 39-116d, which price
is equivalent az the rate Of sight draft
Of 1855 % s3533c., while the New
York quotation is tic. The reason FOR
this large discrepancy is principally
the high cost of insurance. even the
government or war risk being pc.
cent. II stands 10 reason that China
and other Eastern silver buyers
fare much better in getting their
silver shipped from our Pacific
coast than In drawing the silver from
London war rate risk across the
Northern Pacific being only about z
per cent.
II ia 20 be hoped that this market.
once established, will not be lost after
the war is over and that this country
will be In a position 20 dispose Of its
large silver production direct In the
