CHANGE FAILS
TO KEEP PACE
WITH TRADING

NEW YORK, Dec. 3 (P)-i5pecula6ion
for the advance ran riot in this week S
stock market with the machinery Of
the exchange unable to keep pace with
the tremendous volume OF trading.
After the industrial averages had been
lifted to O. Kew record high for all
time in the middle OF the week, chief
speculative interest shifted to the rail
shares whioh swept forward under
leadership of the high grade invest
melt issues Delays of the stock tick
er ran frcm 10 to nearly 80 minutes,
the lcnaest delay taking place today
when total sales fell just short of
100000 shares. new Saturday record
announcement of the new
models helped TO stimulate bulliSh en-
thusiasn, particularly for shares. OF
companies likely to profit from the De-
troit manufacturer business. Merger
and dividend ruynOrs added fuel to the
speculative flame. The weeks bust
ness and trade developments disclosed
little change in general conditions, al
though optimistic forecasts for 1923
began making their appearance in fair
ly large numbers.
In the foreign exchange market
sterling was again the feature, cables
ON London crossing $4.38 for che first
time since December 1914. Other cur
rencies to sell at new prices for the
year, or longer, included those of Bel
gium, Holland, Denmark, Norway, Ar
gentina, India and the Straits Settle
mentS
All the leading commodity markets
gained ground during the week. Wheat
advanced 2 to nearly cents bushel
and cotton closed rs cents to 81 bale
higher. Coffee futures moved up about
2s of 9 cent a pound and sugar quo
tatiOns held steady.
Call money rates stiffened tempor-
arily, owing to the heavy transfers
incidental to month-end settlements,
but time money and commercial paper
rates were unchanged.

Weekly Copper ReUiew
BY CHARLES F. WILLIS
Editor the Mining journal

The entire metal market has ad
Vanced during the past week, copper
advancing from 13 ga to 13 7-3
lead going forward from it's price o.
long standing at 6.25 and going Il
to $50 1t looks now as though
copper was easily going to make the
price predicted several months age
and reach ID cents by tile end Of
the year
Lead is selling we'll with practically
all classes OF consumers in the mar
ket buying for both December ano
January delivery. 1t has not beer
usual TO have lead ordered for future
delivery in any considerable extent
and the volume of advance orders
indicates that the consumers forese(
further advance in the market. The
lead advance in price cannot be
accounted for by any improvement
in the statistical position of tine
metal but only by the increased de-
mand.
The world production of lead fol-
October totaled 154,1O0 tons as against
149,700 tons during September. This
is about the same daily rate. The
United States production of lead
showed an increase during October
while Spain, Germany and Australia
showed decrease. The October
world production was less than the
July production by 1900 tons.
The advance in the price of zinc
is largely a sympathetic reaction
to a general advancing market for
the, position of zinc on the mid month
statistics was worse than at the be-
ginning OF the month The zinc
stocks i'll the hands of American
producers on November Is totaled
$4,000 tons as against 36,223 tons on
November l. The increase in stocks
did not come about as result of
decreased demand but OF increased
production, as the output during that
15s day period was 24,190 tons.
There is an unusually large amount
OF zinc orders on the books of the
producers and undelivered, as a result
OF the buying movement when zinc
hit bottom several weeks ago. the
American Zinc institute reports
131 ,484 tons sold. but not delivered
on November IS. There are no par
ticularly bright spots to the present
zinc situation nor can there be until
general business conditions greatly
improve or production is materially
cut, While there has been small
drop in producrlon in Belgium, there
are no other signs of any curtarl-
ment program. Sc $50
The October zinc production for the
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-12-04

world totaled 125,300 tons as against
l18,900 tons for September. The extra
day in October accounted for about
half of the increase and an increase
in United States production account
ing for most Of the balance.
Ordinarily, business slackenS OH an
advancing market but this has not
been true of copper as sales have
maintained unusually well. The sell
lerS of the metal have stood firmly
on the advance and showed no in
clination of making any bargain
offers
Export copper has again reached
high figures during November and
will probably exceed any previous
month with the possible exception
Of ,lne 1927, when 614S7 tons were
shipped abroad. The average monthly
exports for the year are but 52,621
tons and the present exports are
away above the average
The better position OF copper is
evidenced by the fact that during
the first ten months OF 1927 the
deliveries CT refined copper totaled
1.230,933 tons as compared with
1,192,557 tons during the same period
OF 1926. The increase is accounted
for by the improved foreign demand
as the domestic demand lessened
this year While the European de-
mand for the whole year so far is
about 20 per cent, the Improvement
for the past three months period
is about q per cent, more signifi-
cent figure.
The copper situation shows pro.
duction coming more into line with
consumption, depletion OF excess
stocks, a sustained European demand
and, what is more important con-
certed effort towards saner conduct
of the industry by the producers
themselves. Thus we have very good
reason to anticipate further improve
nent.
Roger Babson, the famous statis-
tician and economist, foresees a gem
eral improvement in the whole metal
situation and discussed mines in one
of his recently weekly syndicated
letters and is extremely optimistic
He points to the enormous magnitude
of the mining industry even in
time when it is considered dead He
said, in part:
eve think that copper mining is
dead in the United States and yet,
last year 1,739,622,094 pounds to a
total value of $243, $4,000 were pro-
duced. In addition to this, lead to
the value of $1G8,91l000, zinc to the
value of $91, ,799,00o and silver to the
value Of $87,406,097 were produced.

Union Challenges Statement
That Dry Law Has In

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
EVANSTON, Ill, December IL
The Women's Christian Temperance
Union issued a statement from its
headquarters here today disputing the
prohibition contentious made by the
Moderation League in a recent report
Of its third annual survey.
The Moderation report purported TO
show, said the w. G. 7. L. statement,
that prohibition is responsible for
an increase of drunkenness under pro-
hibition. One basis for the Conten-
ton is the number of arrests.
Cite Change of Conditions.
THAT organization has not consid-
cred the effect of arrests made under
the enormously increased police
severity" asserted the statement. nor
has it taken into consideration the in
crease in population. Ten years ago
the police rarely arrested a drunk
unless he was disorderly. Today
police are instructed to arrest all in
tOXicalcd persons.
According TO the statistics of The
w {. T. L. the arrests last year
were 1879 per 100000, as compared
with 1870 per 100000 persons in 1914.

An inquiry among the leading
police chiefs shows that a dozen years
ago only about out of every 10
visible DRINKS were arrested" con-
tinued the statement, whereas now
they consider that out of 10 public
DRINKS are taken in

The Moderation League contends
there is more drinking among youth
under prohibit ion,' said the w. c.
7. u. and this it denies.
THE latest information, based on
common sense. the statement adds,
and accurate surveys shows there
is even less drinking now among stu
dents than there was three years ago,
and that youth is giving up the idea
that drinking is smart.
The Moderation League keynote
is a plea that the sale of legal liquor
will produce a handsome national rev.
