PREDICTION OF ZINC
FIRST SIX MONTHS 1920
INTERESTING FIGURES RECENT
LY ISSUED BY GEoLoe-I
CAL SURVEY.

Figures compiled by c. e. Sieben-
thai of the United States geological
survey, department of the interior,
from reports submitted by all zinc
smeters which operated during the
first six months of 1920 show that the
production of zinc from domestic ore
in that period was 251,065 short tons,
and from foreign ore 7O13 tons, a to-
tai production of 25S, 1OS tons, as COM
pared with 210241 in the last half of
1919 and 2555O2 tons in the first half.
The stock of zinc held at smelters on
June 80 was 29,S92 tons, having de-
creased from SO. 1913 at the end of 1919
and 1861 tons at the middle of that
year
From the foregoing figures, and
from the statistics of imports and of
foreign and domestic commerce it is
calculated that the apparent consump-
ton for the period was IT'S. PCS tons,
as compared with 1914 46s tons in the
last half of 1919 and 1595O1 tons i'm

Recovery From Waste.
In addition to the zinc produced
from ore, 12,474 tons was redistilled
from zinc ashes, sldmmings and
dresses. Much of this zinc was of
grades above prime western. and the

III tons of high grade" 1870 tons
or intermediate grade, 37917 tons of

trolytic zinc amounted to 24OS5 tons,
as compared with SSl5 tons in the last
half of 1919, and with 23,211 tons in
the first half
The total number of retorts at
plants at which there were some op-
erations during the first half of 1920
is l57456 as compared with 157OO4 at
the end of 1919 and with a maximum |
total of 224,77S on June 80 1917 The |
number of retorts in operation on
June 80, 1920. was $4,000 as compared |
with 1O75OO at the end of 1919 and
$4,000 on June 80, 1919
Costs Handicap.
English zinc smelling is greatly
ourtailed by high operating charges.
and continental smelters are handi-
capped by heavy fuel costs. Belgium
alone is steadily increasing operations.
the output of zinc in the first half of L
1920 being apparently about 10000
short tons. At the rate of increase
which has been maintained since the
beginning of the year, the output at
the end of the year should be in ex-
cess of 14O6O tons a month or at the
rate of about 10000 tons year. ap

war capacity.

FRANCE LOOKS TO
WILSON FOR HELP
FEELS THAT HE ALONE WILL
HAVE POWER TO AVERT
ANOTHER WAR.
GERMANS STILL PREPARED
Believed That, Despite the Disorders
Now Prevalent, Germany Could
and Would Put Millions on
the Battle Front.

Paris.-The wranglings Of the Ger
mans over new governments, their
continual appeals to the allies to mod.
ify the terms of the treaty regarding
German disarmament, the exaggera.
tion Of their reports about the strength
and menace Of the Spartacists. serve
only to convi1ce France that no ele
ment in Germany can be depended on
to act in good faith.
1t may not be too much to predict,
according to the semi-offcial view
here. that the day of final reckoning
between France and Germany, for
which Germany seems to have been
hankering since the armistice, may be
nearer at hand If the United States
makes a separate peace with Ger.
many.
"Will Europe alone be able to re-
construct herself or fall into bank
ruptcy and anarchy, or will Europe
become the vassal OF America" the
French press and public are demand
ing.
With chaos on all sides, greedy and
ambitious politicians are making the
! situation, which was already bad. con-
siderably worse. The French declare
that America cannot think Of aban'
doning her old allies without imper.
fling her own security. Diplomats
who, until the Senate's rejection OF
the treaty, were loud in blaming
President Wilson for Americas atti
tude toward Europe, now apparently
are looking to President Wilson as
the real hope, il greater disaster
than the world war caused is to be
avoided Mr.. Wilson, they say, car
and will veto any attempt to make
separate peace between AmericS
and Germany, which, to the French
mind, would he an unthinkable dis
grace. the stain Of which woult
eclipse the brilliant record Americ;
achieved in the war.
The new menace Is that France, II
self-defense, may be compelled to TAX
entirely in her own hands the matte
of a settlement with Germany. This
rather than permit the German mil
tarists, encouraged by Americas d.
lection and the wobbling OF Grea
Britain and Italy, to- get the uppe
hand again. Andre Tardeau's recer
article in ILLUSTRATION. in which h
argues strongly against giving Ge
many relief before France, is regarde
as foreshadowing the French offici;
attitude in the event France is d.
serted by America and Great Britai
and is forced to play lone hand wit
Germany.
