Weekly Copper ReDiew
;By CHARLES r. WILLIS,
EaitOr. The Mining JOurnaIl


Lead has been showing a renewed
activity on sales, kut it has no:
been sufficient to shake the price
from the $40 marx, which the ac-
tivity in zinc with the marked Cur
tailment of production has startec
the price upwards to 625 ana ar
inclination. to continue on Copper
has remained quite dead at IL 3-4
but the lowering OF THE price to 12 IT,
to 5.8 has brought some interest.
Speculative buying has featured THE
zinc movement and much Of the
metal has gone into the haade or
dealers which indicates that they
think that the price has definitely
turned, upwards and that higher
prices have come. There hos peer
much gone to consumers also but
the dealer buying has featured the
lnarket.l ssa s.ss
It has not been 4 decrease in zinc
stocks that has caused the upward
movement as stocks OF zinc On May
81, amounted TO l2.046 tons, conpar-
ed with. 4l,208 tens. on May l, ac-
cording to figures compiled by Amer
ican Zinc Institute. Production in
May amounted to 5l.296 tons While
shipments we're 50,458 tons, OF which
45.5GO we're domestic and 4896 ex-
port.
The shortage of lead IN the hands
of consumers caused by the nleager
buying over the past several months
is shown by the way IN which they
have been buying in the past couple
OF weeks, taking advantage OF the
low price and placing orders fer de
livery of considerable quantities
through June and July The buy
ing movement, while 1t has not
changed TIE base price of 6.46, hes
brought a stiffness in price and II
is reported that marry of the safes
have been made at GAS and ESQ.,
The lead situation is regarded as
serious by many Df the prOducerss q
prominent official of a western lead
company stated recently: If the
price Of lead goes I.lust lower it is
for our lead mines. Nest of the
large ones have surtaIled end very
few will be able to make both ends
meet with lead selling at 6 IL cents.
Many mines can now produce lead
and zinc with modern methods OF
lnetallurgy that formerly were not
able to produce either lead or zinc
when the custom snelters were pen
alizing them for the zinc content
Low prices therefore are the result
0f overpToduction and Europe is get
ting the benefit"
1t seems quite evident that it Is
necessary to reduce copper prices II
order to attract the consumers into
the market. The volume OF sales al
the u IL cent price was large and
when the price was advanced tc
IL 3-4 cents sales slumped alrnosl
Immediately Now the price has
dropped again and consumers arr
willing to place their orders.
Unfortunately the margin OF profit
is so small that many of The copper
companies arc finding it necessary
TO convert their copper into casr
in order to meet tileir dividend re-
uuiremellts. 1t is possible that there
will be Others. Of the copper com
pantcs who will fellow up the ex-
ample set by Inspiration and reduce
or pass asheir dividend for the tin1t
being ratilcrs than be forced to sci
their copper at the lew price pre-.

While it is possible to curtail cop
so curtail that costs will go away up
no. is it advisable to cut so deep
that their working organizations
cannot be held together
The copper companies nave made
some wonderful strides i'll Cieveiop-
iIig efficient organizations and meth
eds and this work has taken q per-
icd CT years to accomplish. 1t would
be folly to undo this work and have
to start it all over again at a later
date, particularly when ehe copper
market is in such close bclarce
between production ana consumption.
/ The copper companies must nlaia,s
tain the position Which they have
gained IN relation to costs and il
the maintenance Of that position re-
Iquires Slight cverproduction now with
consequent low prices It is probably
better to have tie low price until
!, consumption builds up. 1t is evident
that production is 100 great as YET
as the refined copper surplus al tho
| end of May stood st 108,O79 tons as
against 1926 tons a month before,
| this figure showing the highest slT.
plus for several years.
AS is usual, there are scmc OF the
! producers OF COPPER who are in gooc
/ financial position who just do not
PITT their metal ON the market az
i the low. price but even these ccna-
panies find it necessary to supply
! the needs of iNeir regular customers
at Ehe market prices as it woule:
4 not do to let tilelll begin to shop for
their copper requirements.
One thing that looks better for

Recent activity in the copper mar
Iket has been very largely Tor ac-
count of foreign consumers. Europe
|relies upon the United States for the
hulk of its supplies. This is seen
from lie fact that $50 100000 pouncs
icf copper were shipped to European
h ports during the first four months
of this year. OF this amount mor
