REPORTS COPPER SALE
BY U. S. TO PRODUCERS
Army Sales Official, However
Thinks Consumers Received
Government Surplus.

One hundred million pounds of sur
plus copper have been sold at prevail
ing market prices during the last four
months; f. c. Morse, assistant sales
director of the War Department, told
the House investigating committee
yesterday. The United Metals Sell
ing Company, created to dispose of
this surplus and representing 95 Der
cent of the copper producers, was the
purchaser.
Secretary Bakers instructions Ia st
winter, Mr.. Morse said, were that
copper be withheld only to see If an
agreement could be reached with the
producers, and if not. to sell in short
time as best we could"
The contract, Mr.. Morse admitted,
might permit the producers to sell
| among themselves, and by so doing
make a large volume of sales and a
low market. The stocks, however,
he said, went to consumers, accord :
ing to the shipping orders given the
department.
Mr.. Morse said labor orga niZations
had urged that surplus metal be with
held from the market as wages were
based on market price, and that the
selling company sought to have it
withheld for six months after the ar
mistice was signed, but in April con-
tracted to buy the surplus. The vol
ume of sales made possible early dis
position, it was said.
