British Interest
In the Problem

While this idea and suggestion at
first sight may seem radical, it is inter
esting to note that the entire geld pro-
ducing industry Of the British Empire
called a meeting for this identical pur-
pose on July and appointed a com
mlttee of six to Immediately bring this
situation to the attention OF the British
government.
So far as the United States is con-
cerned, the first and immediate neces-
sity is legislation which will permit the
continuation of the present gold mining
industry.
This can be accomplished temporarily
by establishing an adequate bonus suf-
ficient to Offset the increased cost OF
labor and materials as against pre-war
conditions.
Second: The formation of an inter
national commission to act jointly with
the committee now formed in London,
and proper representatives. of the gov
ernments for the purpose of reestab-
hshing proper fixed price for gold
commensurate with present conditions,
and
The enactment of such legislation as
will protect all paper issues which
have been made on the present gold
basis, and the taking of such steps as
are necessary to see that the interna-
national gold asset controlled by the
Allies Is made proper use of in
order to place the Central Powers
on parity with US so far as
the cost of producing material is
concerned, in this way preventing them
from drawing out the gold supply of
the Allies through neutral or other
channels by selling materials in the
world markets at a lower gold cost.
1t is to be hoped this discussion, along
with general consideration on this
subject, may lead 70 immediate tangible
legislation necessary to protect the
present operative gold mining industry
of the Allied countries and take full
advantage of the control of this metal
by the Allies, in dealing with the credit
structure of the Central Powers.
Given the knowledge and the fact
that the United States and her allies
actually control 30 per cent of the gold
and gold producing areas of the world,
the questions arise:
First: Why should we continue 70
pay for supplies purchased from neu-
trails in gold at less than actual cost Of
production.
Second: Should not the United States
and her Allies Immediately recognize
this great international asset and take
all necessary steps to prevent Germany
and the Central Powers from entering
the world markets. thereby draining
their gold to preserve the very paper
credit structure developed for the pur-
pose of carrying on war against US?
Third: Why should the gold mining
industry, as established be perforce
compelled to sell its product at price
less than that which it is actually
worth

In d u s trial
Cotton

AOtGOn
within rather narrow price limits
there was a steady tone to cotton on
Saturday, and after moderate fuctua-
tions the market closed very steady,
with quotations unchanged to 10 points
net higher. The opening was generally
3 to II points lower, and subsequent
selling carried active positions down
from 10 to 13 points under the pre-
vious close, from which level a rather
sharp upturn occurred in the last half
hour, based on covering which reflected
an absence of rain in Texas, such as
had been forecasted in Fridays wealth
er report. AS matter of fact, crop
advices from Texas continue to be of
a most serious character, some claim
ing that damage in Southern, Central
and Western Texas was beyond repair,
while conditions in the North and East
have become alarming.
number of private crop reports
have been issued thus far, and all
united in making sharp reductions in
the Texas conditions, ranging from 10
to 10 points. Two of these reports
were issued Saturday, one making con-
ditions rs, against 84.7 last month, and
the other 1873, against 84.4 a month
ago. The regular government report
on condition will be issued August l,
and will be awaited with much interest,
although many expect that any loss in
Texas will be about Offset by very ia
vorable conditions in other parts of
the belt, notably east of the Missis-
sppi River. There are even some who
believe that good rains within the next
week or ten days will prove of great
benefit in Texas, and this was one rea-
son why the market has not shown
more response in the last few days
to alarming reports.
Outside trade was checked during
the day by the possibility of some
pronounced development in other wal
quarters it was expected that a part
least would be taken care of by pur-
chases of spot houses which had sold
a good deal of high grade cotton from
the old crop to the French and British
governments, which they were unable
to obtain because of the scarcity OF
these grades, and would therefore be
compelled to replace out of the new
crop.
Because of draft calls curtailment az
Fall River for the week amounted to
100000 pieces, compared with 10000
pieces year ago, while the sales ag-
gregated 10000 pieces, or 10000 pieces
more than at this time last year.

Metals

The War Industries Board estimated
government steel requirements during
the second half of 1913 at 10000, 900
tons, which is about 100000 tons in
excess of the probable outturn. 1t is
not likely, therefore, that any will be
available for ordinary commercial pur-
poses. Jobbers will be allowed to re-
plenish stocks used for government
purposes only to the extent of their
shipments of essentials during the pre-
cedng month. Recent shipments have
been heavy. They include 265 900 tons
to the Hog Island yard and 1877, 900
tons to the Submarine Boat plant. The
new Liberty yard, at Alameda, Cal,
will take 10000 tons structural steel.
The governments control of iron dis
tribution is complete. Following the
recent survey some 100000 tons have
been taken from consumers and redis-
tributed. Production has been excep-
tionally heavy during July, but is still
land, $4,000 will be shipped by North
ern and 10000 by Southern furnaces
within the next four weeks. The bal
ance will follow in September, Octo-
Der and November. A plan is on foot
to apportion government orders syste-
matically among all foundries.
Production of copper continues to
about equal supply.
Lead is scarce, with premium de-
manded for prompt delivery. The of
fetal price is still S.Q5c, New York, but
none can be had nearby.
Tin is quiet. Consumption is prac-
tically all governmental, but consumers
will be taken care of for the present.
Spot tin is quoted'at CSC to 96c, Chinese
for shipment at 90c and nearby Banka
at 941sc Straits is not offered.

counts were GENERALLY satisfactory, al
though report by a prominent West

evidences of increased yields of winter
wheat. Mills have been free buyers of
wheat recently, as very large bust

port by prominent crop expert said
that corn has lost ground in the South
ern states and that Southwestern Texas
and Oklahoma will not raise their home
requirements. 1t also said that the crop
as a whole will show a sharp loss for
the month, with probably a decrease
