forward to the conference of am

AMERICA BECOMING PURCHASING
CENTER FOR SILVER TRADERS

York also has been helped by broad
ening the market in Far Eastern
exchanges lessening the risks of ster-
ling. rupee aud Shanghai tael fluc-
tuations. As a result this market is
receiving continually increasing sill
yer buying orders.
London's experience of several
hundred years and it's more exten-
sive facilities for handling specula'
tive transactions, however. will en-
able It to hold the preponderant
silver trading position for some time
experts believe.
At the same time, they assert,
the London market is at a disad-
vantage because it can no longer OBJ
ain from continental Europe large
quantities of silver coin to be melted
down and resold, process which,
since 1915 has added 10000. 600 ounc-
% to the exports for India
China.
The United States, on the other
hand, is benefited by its own large
production. which has been swelled
by an increased output fromlead
zinc and copper companies which
are also silver producers. Cessa.
ton of purchases by the government
under the Pittman Act also has made
more silver available for export.

GENEVA, Feb. 1S.-The special
military commission which investi-
gated the murder Of the Italian Of
ficers at Janina has submitted its
report and declares that it is in
no position to give final and de-
finite decision as to where the re-
sponsibility really lies. 1t was the
murder of these italian officers that
led to the Corfu incident and for
time threatened the existence of
the League of Nations.
The commissions report said that
if the truth is ever to be discovered
1t is essential that there should be
full agreement between the Greek
and Albanian governments and sug-
gested that at least one neutral who
is an expert in criminal investigation
be placed at the disposal of the two
governments.

the silver center of the world from
London to New York Is in progress
according to bullion and silver ex-
change experts. who report that SUI
premacy in the market is slowly. but
surely passing from Great Britain to
the United States
Reduced transportation costs made
possible by direct shipments of silver
from this country to the Far East
ern nations, the largest consumers
Of the metal have brought about the
change. Formerly American ship
ments were made in large volume
to London, from where re-shipmeni
was made to the Orient.
Total silver exports from .he
United States direct to the ar East
in 1923 amounted to S6,000,000 ounces
as against 69,000,000 ounces in the
preceding year while London ship
ped only 776,O000OO ounces, in which
100000 were re shipments from
the United States.
Despite the sterling basis of for
eign trade with India and China
giving London, with its large trade
in silver and silver exchanges, an
advantage, the New York markets
offers the attraction of cheaper ship
ping charges to silver buyers. New
