TREASURY PUSHES
SILVER PURCHASES
Huge Shipment From Lon
don Regarded as Indica-
ton of Activities.
BY the Associated Press.

1y Tic ASoOClhbcO EICoS.
NEW YORK, August 17.-Wall
Street was convinced today that
heavy shipments of silver from Eng
land for New York represented first
concrete indications of accumulation
of metal in foreign markets by agents
of the United States Treasury in
carrying out the silver purchase pro-
gram.
1t was reported that $4,000 bars,
or 400 tons, worth about $6,350, 900,
was shipped yesterday from South
ampton, and represented the largest
single consignment of silver ever to
cross the Atlantic. A week ago a
shipment of 1000 bars was made.
Indications of Treasury buying
closely since the order nationalizing
American stocks. 1t is only In the
foreign markets that the Treasury
can now get additional silver, save
for the small domestic production.
1t Is understood, however, that the
Treasury has been buying silver
abroad for some time, possibly since
June, although the amount that it
may have acquired is not known.
Silver quarters said the Treasury evi-
IDENTIFY had managed to operate with
utmost secrecy.
Trading In silver in London has
recently quickened to record-breaking
proportions. Considerable selling
there has been attributed to Chinese
sources. Bar silver in London was
quoted today at 215s pence an ounce,
equivalent to about 49.6 cents. The
cost of shipping, insurance and han
ding is understood to be about 0.4
of a cent an ounce, so no silver
could be imported at a profit, in
view of the fact that metal not
needed industrially must be turned
into the Treasury at 50.01 cents an
ounce.
The price for industrial silver was
still quoted by bullion brokers in New
York today at 4934 cents.
