Other Steel Merger Rumors

Following the spectacular rise Of
Crucible on Friday and special
strength in Replogle, Vanadium and
Gulf States yesterday the merger gos-
sip spread TO these companies. Unless
the Depa1 tment of Justice steps in and
calls a halt on the negotiations known
to be under way, the present year will
probably be known period of many
industrial consultations. Following
this line Of reasoning the speculative
public is inclined to credit practically
every rumor that crops up. In this
connection it was stated that an an
nouncement will probably be made
some time this week of a merger be-
tween the Pennseaboard Steel Com
pany and another steel concern Re

French Currency in Demand

Dealers in foreign exchange and cur
rency report an increasing demand for
French francs for the account of Amer
leans who are planning to spend part
Of the summer touring abroad. Under
conditions prevailing before the war,
when fluctuations in foreign exchange
were insignificant it was the tourists
custom to change his American money
for francs Of other foreign currences
in the purser's Office aboard ship, or
wait until the end of the castbound
voyage. But at the present time there
is marked tendency to anticipate fu-
ture foreign currency requirements by
purchasing in this country far in ad-
vance. Tourists seem confident that
French exchange will advance before
summer, in spite of any i'll effects of
the Genoa conference. and they are
acting accordingly. This tendency is
set down by exchange brokers as one
of the factors contributing to the rela-
tive firmness OF French exchange at
times during the last two weeks, when
the political situation in Europe did
not appear exactly promising

CRANKY Consolidated

Announcement was made yesterday
that the CRANKY Consolidated Mining,
Smelling and Power Company is nov
producing around 100000 pounds Of
copper month, at a cost laid down IN
New York of about II cents pound,
1t is officially estimated that the com
pany will soon be in position TO pro-
ducc copper at much lower cost. as
a result of Improvement work now con-
tempatcd. Last year the company pro
duced 29,eG7,o5 pounds Of copper, an
increase of 100000 pounds over ne
previous year, and sold 37,oo0,0oO
pounds, drawing upon its surplus for
the difference between production and
distribution. This compared With "
600, 900 pounds sold in 1920. Ohiciais
estimate that the power to be devel-
oped from the company's proposed new
water dam to be constructed from
funds derived from the sale OF oo'ooo
.tarcs of stock will result in a saving
Of from one-half to one cent a pound
on copper produced.
