Share Of the United States and
other principal countries in
world output. Increased use
Of the white metal in indus
trial arts.

Announcement that a study OF
possible new uses for silver in the
industries and commerce is 10 be
undertaken by the United States
Department OF the Interior lends
interest to some calculations made
BY the Trade Record Of The Ma
tional City Bank Of New York as
to the share which we are produc-
ing OF the worlds silver output and
the proportion used in the industrial
arts. These figures show that the
United States produced in 1922
about 26Te OF the silver turned out
by the mines of the world as against
26qs in 1910, $3.50 in 1900. 2oS in
1870, 24qe in 1865. and SO in 1861,
the initial yean of our recognition
as an important factor in world
silver production. Prior 10 1860
our share OF world production was
extremely small. but fraction OF
1%c. Our production OF silver which
amounted to only tl6,0l6 ounces in
1860, and 1,547 900 in 1861. for the
first time crossed the 10 million line
in 1867, being for that year l0,44l.-
600 ounces: in 1870 100000. 1880
10000 900. 1890 $4,000, 900, 1000 58.-
100000, 1910 100000, 1915 U.s.
100000. and in 1922 s6.240,000
ounces.
Although We came late into the
field OF silver production, the share
which we have supplied of the
worlds outturn of silver from 1902
to the end of 1928 is about 21%,

TRADE RECORD
WORLD SILVER PRODUCTION

The big additions to the Nerrd's
supply OF silver which were run
ming at the rate OF over 00,000, 900
ounces a year prior to the war and
in 1922 again crossed the 200, 000.-
600 line do not necessarily mean
corresponding increase in the
worlds stock of silver money. A
very considerable share of the new
silver produced from year to year
is now used for purposes other than
monetary. Some OF it is lost by
abrasion, some of il passes TO the
Orient and disappears in the
boards" characteristic among the
people of that part of the world.
Much of it has been used for years
in the manufacture of tableware.
ornaments and toilet articles. and
of late large quantities are utilized
in photography especially the thou
sands OF miles Of motion picture
films annually turned out in the
world, While the silver used in
tableware, ornaments and toilet
articles is looked upon as possibly
recoverable" in case il is needed.
that used in photography and plat
ing is not recoverable. A recent
statement by a high authority puts
The quantity OF silver now used In
photography and silver plating at
from 10 to 20 million ounces a year
while from 20 to so million ounces
are annually used in the nranufac-
turc Of tableware. toilet articles, etc.
Accepting the higher Of these fig
ures it would appear that about one
fourth of the worlds silver pro-
duction is now used in the arts and
industries, and this is sustained by
a recent report of the Director OF
the Mints who states the worlds
industrial consumption OF silver in
1922 at 5o.S6o. 900 ounces. or $50
OF the 1922 world outturn.
