Daily Financial Gossip
By HOLLAND

New York, July 26.-(speciaD When Sir Auckland Geddes, Great Britains ambassador to the United States. spoke who were assembled at Ashe- vile, N. C., a few days ago, he had in miRd, among other things, the news print paper situation. He did not refer in words to a condition which has be- come almost alarming. but he did speak of the importance of maintaining friend ly relations between England, Canada and the United States. Should there come some irritation, some breach in these relations, Canada might be tempt ed to place an embargo upon the ex- port to the United States of paper and of wood pulp. should this happen it would not be long before the United States would return, so far as the print ed word is concerned almost to the dark ages.
 Sir Auckland knew that the manufac- turers of newsprnt paper in the United States are now dependent for I5 per cent of their pulp upon Canada. few years ago we were producing so much wood pulp in this country that less than 20 per cent of the pulp manufactured into pa per in the United States came from Canada. Rapid has been the increase in the imports of Canadian pulp, so rapid, in fact. that the estimate now is that not more than forty years and perhaps as few as thirty years will have passed when the announcement will be Tade that no longer has the United States any wood pulp timber, so that we shall be dependent upon Canada for a 100 per cent of the pulp used in the manufac- ture of paper.
 Nevertheless the situation is almost like that of the sailor who is dying of thirst on the ocean-water, water every where, but not a drop to drink. For there remains in the United States and in Alaska abundant supplies of pulp producing timber, but almost all of it is not available. Leaving Alaska out of consideration, our own pulp timber large in the aggregate as it is, will, unless there be reforestration, have been abso- lutely exhausted by the year l960 and

WHERE THE PULP
 RESOURCES ARE

There still remain considerable spruce and hemlocl timber in Maine and lit- tie in other parts of New England, but these are being rapidly cut off so that the exhaustion of them is quite likely to be reported within the next twenty years, thirty at the most. But in the northwest there are many billion feet of pulp producing timber which are not available partly for lack of transporta- ton and partly for lack of manufactur- ing plants.
 The United States bureau of forestry, after investigation, reports that in Alas ka there are not less than seventy bl lion and perhaps as much as seventy five billion feet of pulp-producing tim- Der and that these great forests are within accessible reach of the harbors in Alaska. These are, of course, gov 'ernment owned lands. But Congress and the government are to be relied upon for assistance in making this Alas Ia resource arails ble. In fact, already

Sugar Market
 By Associated press

New York, July a6-The local marke. for raw sugar was unsettled and while prices were neminally unchanged at 151ac for Cubas, cost and freight equal to 16.55c for centrifugal, there were per- sistent rumors that Cubas had been sold at Ac below this level to local refiners. The only sales confirmed was dis tressed lot of cubas in port at New Or leans at 15Ac, cost and freight equal to 1s3lc for centrifugal; 400 bags of San- do Mingos nearby to local refiner at l5N. c. f. f.. and 5000 bags of Porto Ricos afloat at 16.55c c. i. f.
 There were no changes in refined prices. which are listed at 2ld22.5Oc for fine granulated.
 There was only moderate inquiry re- ported.
 Sugar futures shared in the weakness of other commodity markets and the unsettled feeling in the stock market, with closing quotations 6 to s5 points net lower The reports of an easier spot market led to scattered selling by com mission houses and trade interests and closing quotations were the lowest of the day.
