Copper Market NoU IN Fair
Condition With But 20 Days
Supply on Hand, Says Douglas

conditions are not such that fight
for such a protection would be as
sured of success. He re-affirmed his
belief that such protection would
probably help the domestic producer
and might become necessary in the
near future. He called attention to
the assistance which had been given
lead and zinc producers by tariff
protection, and to the fact that lead
usage in the United States was ap~
proximately two-thirds as large as
copper usage. He also mentioned the
fact that lead producers obtained an
average of about 20 per cent to 25
per cent in their ores while the
average copper ores mined at less
than three per cent.
