METALS STRONGER
AS DOLLAR SINKS
Tin, Especially, Goes Sharply Up
to Highest in Several Years.
Copper Also Rallies.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, November 11.-Weak-
ness Of the dollar in foreign exchange
was reflected by STRENGTHENING ten
dency in some metal markets this week.
Tin, especially. was sharply higher In
sympathy with rises at London and
in sterling exchange, advancing at one
time to gain of 4 cents per pound for
the week and to the highest levels for
several years.
Copper rallied "a cent per pound late
In the week to 8K cents for electrolytic,
Connecticut Valley, largely because Of
higher export quotations. A trade COM
mittee was continuing work on the cop
per code, but no definite results were
reported
Although a firm updertone was re-
ported In the lead market, there was
no price change. Consumer buying for
December delivery was somewhat bet
ter on several days, but the total vol-
ume was moderate. f..,.r
Zinc failed to rally. although sellers
were said to be more reluctant to offer
at that level, particularly in forward
positions.
Anthony was dull, but firmer tone
was reported, owing to weakness OF
the dollar and relatively higher Chinese
replacement costs.
Interest in the steel trade was CEN
tered principally on release Of Govern
ment money for rail purchases and
progress of the public works program
in absence Of general consumer puylng.

A vigorous campaign was launched.
Disorders, bloodshed and violent accu-

after his government was installed
January 30, reinstated curtailments on
the press which had been promulgated
in July by Franz Won Papen, then
chancellor, whose cabinet was replaced

terpreted as calculated ITO create un-

be suspended also for insulting or ridi-
culing members Of the government.
A sensation arose when the iron hand
OF the government fell even on Ger
mania, the chief Catholic organ, and .
string Of country Centrist papers, for
publishing an appeal which was con-
sidered Objectionable.
In the case Of the Catholic organs
the ban was lifted after an explanation
by Centrist party leaders that no of
