Australian Copper
Mines Closed Because
Demand has Decreased

London, June 23.-All but two of
the Australian copper mines and
smelzers are reported to have been
closed down because of the large
stocks of metal on hand and the
very small demand.
The American Chamber of Com
merce in London reports that this
condition has raised the question in
interested circles in Great Britain
as to whether copper should be i'm
ported from the United States to
the detriment of the industry in
British Dominions.
Sixty per cent of the British i'm
ports of copper last year came from
the United States and only a little
over nine per cent from Australia.
War ALLEGATION of shipping space
had a lot to do with this but there
is feeling in England, that i'm
ports from the United States should
now be kept down and preference
given to the Australian product. This
would be a further means of reduc-
ing Great Britain's adverse balance
of trade with the United States.

Ever since that noon when L sat
with Neal and Pat and Carlotta
at the Olinsarge and heard of the
birth of the Dalton-SturSes Corpor-
alton, I've known that some day
would have to tell Jim about 1t.
often I've rehearsed the scene in

tell him. l expected to justify my
long silence by the triumph Of my
diplomacy.
But now Jim had forced the bare
fact from me. Forced it from me at
the particular moment wher it was
least advantageous, least diplomatic
harder for me to read and under
stand. How could hope to manage
this situation when L hadn't been
able to persuade him to let me man
age the other situation--NeaPs en-
gagement to Envy?
Jim looked dominant, stubborn
and dangerous. l Couldn't under
stand him in such mood. He seemed
a stranger to me, and not the ro-
mantle, fiery, impractical war-hero
I had pursued from the first moment
] saw him.
But as he stood looking at me
across the chair he had swung be-
tween us, it flashed through my
mind that if only 1 kept my head
now, l could effect a compromise
make Jim see things at least partly
my way.
Since I said that one pregnant
sentence, MEALS with the Dalton
Sturges Realty Corporation" no
word had come from Jim.
A minute or two passed while my
thoughts whirled along and 1
waited for Jim to say something,
anything-rather than stand there
staring at me as if he were forcing
himself to a verdict. At last he
repeated my words slowly, one at
a time:

Yes, Jim. But let me explain" I
replied eagerly.
Jim smiled and waved me to a
chair. l didn't like his smile and
I was astonished when 1 found my
self obediently sitting down.
