Demand Exceeded Supply.
'In the early part of this year. ,
explained Mr.. Cornish, more leao
was being consumed in the UnlIeo
States than was being produced mere:
The result was that the price OF leao
in the United States was the LONDON
price plus tariff. The high prices
stimulated production, with the re-
suit that in the last six weeks more
lead has been produced in the United
States than is being consumed In this
country. The price of lead has been
falling rapidly.
"It is altogether probable that pro-
duction of pig lead will prevail in
short time. At present prices OF pig
lead, the mines cannot pay the wages
that are being paid. The demand for
laborers in the harvesting of the
grain will probably make it impos'
sible to reduce wages in the mines,
with the result that many mines
must either be closed or operated
at less output, hence the probability
of increases in prices for pig lead"
Mr.. Cornish said that, like his
customers, he was more interested
in having stable prices than rapidly
fluctuating quotations which have
been the rule thus far this year.
Company Buys Pig Lead.
1.-THE National Lead Company"
he asserted, produces about 10
per cent of it's requirements of pig
lead, purchasing the 80 per cent
upon the market. It is, therefore,
interested in having the price of
pig lead as low as possible. / state
this to correct any feeling that the
National Lead Company was a ben
eficiary under the tariff upon pig
lead 1t is most advantageous to
the National Lead Company to have
the price of pig lead stable and
uniform"
In the first three months of 1923
pig lead prices rose rapidly, reach
ing about 8 cents a pound, and
have since been reacting. The de-
cline came when the company, the
largest consumer of lead in this
country, was loaded up with an Un-
precedentedly large supply.

ALL BUT FIVE IN

ARE SANE.
Doctor Disturbs General Belief
That Everyone Is a Little
Crazy"
BY international News Service.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, July 2O.-The
tradition that everybody Is little
crazy is the latest to be defeated
by science, according to DIR. Thomas
e. Bamford, Syracuse authority on
psychiatry
Ninety-fiv per cent of all human
beings are absolutely sane, DR..
Bamford has declared. The remain
ing per cent are those who have
generated the popular belief OF uni
versal insanity, he asserted.
Nearly everybody is sane, not
withstanding the old saying to the
contrary" Or. Bamford said. "At
least IS per cent of the people Of
Syracuse are quite normal men
tally.
I'VE have to have some sort of a
standard of sanity, and it is
standard very easily arrived at.
There is the greatest difference in
the world between the brain Of the
normal man and the brain of the
hydrocephalic imbecile, for example.
"And psychiatric expert can de-
tect. certain fundamental discrep-
ancies in the brain structure in an
autopsy. For example, the depth Of
the brain convolutions, the size Of
the cerebrum and cerebellum, would
show incalculable differences be-
tween the brain of an imbecile and
that of deep thinking individual.
Therefore, said Dr.. Bamford in
conclusion, IT maintain that neor-
ly everybody is sane. Fortunately.
here the exception proves the rule"

AUTOS DESTROY
MANY BIRDS,

Game Protectors Say Speed

sands of Shall Animals
BY International News Service.

SUPERIOR, Wis, July 2O.-The
motor car is taking a. terrible toll
in bird and animal life in the wilds
of Wisconsin, 1t has been reported
by fish and game protective agencies
of the State. It is estimated that
each summer thousands of birds and
small animals are killed by ruthless
drivers.
Along any and every highway of
the State, it is claimed, may be found
any day the evidence of the toll in
wild life being taken by motor cars.
Lining the roads are hundreds Of
bodies of little birds, chipmunks
SQUIRRELS and rabbits.
Game birds killed by motorists are
few, the reports state, largely be-
cause the birds are hunted and do
not look upon men as friends, as do
their smaller feathered brethren.
Robins, woodpecktrs, phoebes, song
sparrows-all Of the little fellows
whose songs ring through the forests
of pine and who stand fearlessly in
the road and watch the approaching
motor car with confidence that no
harm will come to them are dying by
scores.
A dozen small birds were found
dead along one highway in a dis
lance of about 100 feet, it was re-
ported by one member of the protec-
tive association.
Many of the birds killed by motor
cars may be spared that fate, it is
claimed, If drivers sound their warn
ing signal rather than pueposely try
to run over the birds, rabbits or
squirrels met along the roads.
