CoPPERs A BUY SAYS BABsoN

Wellesley Hills, Mass, Nov. 10,
1922.-C0pper stocks have been
showing more life of late and evil
dence tendancy to act quite in
dependent of the rest of the mar
ket. Roger w. Babson accounts
for this change by calling atten-
ton to shift in the condition
which control the copper industry.
THE copper Stocks" says Mr..
Babson, "like any other are gov
erned by a combination of the con-
ditions in the security market and
the factors that control the pro-
duction and consumption of cop
per.
"The industry" continues Mr..
Babson, ssis now in a better posi-
ton than it has been for the past
four years. In other words, it
has taken the industry practically
this length of time to recover from
the abnormal producing conditions
and heavy stocks built up during
the war years. Due to the con-
tinuance of heavy stocks which, at
the high point in 1919, amounted
to over one billion pounds, produc-
ton has been radically curtailed.
Prices have slumped from the war
time price of 38c for elctrolytic
copper to low point of IL per
cent about a year ago. The in
dustry has suffered in the present
period Of readjustment to great
er extent than probably any other
important industry.
"T'he fact that copper in its
manufactured forms has excellent
wearing qualities has worked to
the disadvantage Of the industry
during the past two or three years.
For example, in the case of am
munition abroad, all Of the shell
was destroyed except the copper
cartridge. This, as you remenl-
Der, was used again and again and
at the end of hostilities, large
stocks of unused brass and cop
per cartridges went for industrial
purposes. Reclaimed supplies
are now greatly diminished so that
the demand for new copper will
gradually increase from now on.
production has been gradually
increasing since the first Of the
year. Production during the war
years averaged well over $50 mil
lion pounds monthly. Compare
this with an output during 1921
averaging under % million pounds
monthly. In fact, even exports
last year were materially heavier
than the total United States pro-
duction. Production at the present
time is averaging about 85 mil
lion pounds monthly. Exports
have tended to increase and are
around IS million pounds each
month. Domestic consumption is
also increasing so that the statisti-
cal position of the industry is
relatively strong. This does not
promise any radical comeback but
rather that the worst is over and
that the long pull outlook is much
better than it has been for num-
Der of years. This change will
bring about better profits for the
larger, low-cost copper companies.
sThe producing capacity of the
industry is still large so that any
increase in price. tends to stimulate
production. This in turn, causes
the market to weaken. The reason
for the slump in most copper
stocks around the first of Novem-
Der was clear enough. The rate
of Importation from South Ameri-
ca for a matter of months has
been increasing. Our southern
neighhor can produce at low cost,
much lower than domestic COM
panies a fact that has been hold

statutes. In other words the 40
mill limit is to be the foundation
upon which a new tax system is
to be built.
This demand is in no sense revo-
lutionary. This limit is in force
in several states which have placed
their taxation systems upon a
much more equitable basis than
that of the state of Washington.
Certainly it is plan that should
be enthusiastically supported by
every property owner.

max LEAGUES may come and

At least this paraphrase very &C.
.rrately tells the story Of tax
,s.oue accomplishments in the
.t.te of Washington. There have
heen fifty-seven varieties of organi-
cations the purpose of which has

these organizations have accomp-
l;.hed something. Taxes perhaps
are not as heavy as they might
have been had it not been for the

ward.
Not only has the tax rate not
decreased but the plan or system
II taxation has not changed. The
stste of Washington is still using
the same method of taxation
adopted at the time when all there
vas to Washington was the wide
out-of-doors; when all it's wealth
was tangible wealth; when it's one
source of income was the land. It
was the same system that was
adopted by original states in the
early days Of the republic. Other
states have from time to time
changed their taxation systems to
meet changed conditions. Not so
with Washington. The result is
that the increased cost of govern
ment has been pyramided upon
property-tangible wealth-to a
point Of confiscation. If not out
right confiscation it is confiscation
by the slow processes of impair
ment Of earning power and conse-
quent depreciation of valuation.
The pyramided burden is penali-
zing the present home-owner and
discouraging the prospective home
builder. 1t is keeping out foreign
capital and driving domestic sur

Of tax exemptions which means
stagnation in commercial, indus

As has been said the general
purpose of the various tax-reduc-

their work has been in the nature
Of an attempt to fight back the
driblets from a leaky, dilapidated,
obsolete bulkhead which needs to
be torn out and rebuilt, upon a
new foundation. 1t is such a plan
that the Tax Limit league pro-
poses.
AS yet this league has come for
ward with no new plan of taxa
ton. 1t merely lays down the
principle that taxation on real and
personal property in excess of 40
mills becomes confication and asks
that the legislature recognize this
principle and write it into the state
