Domestic copper markets are moder-

good business. Price is steady at 9
cents a pound. Fabricators continue
to report large and steady volume of
orders FOR shipment which in turn is
leading them to take copper recently

Domestic lead markets also are more
active today with prices unchanged

RAPS
'PSALM|STS'

NEW YORK, Sept. "a GN.sJ,
Bernard Baruch returned today
from Europe, preaching peace
and preparedness for war.
The World War chairman of
the War Industries Board does not
believe Europe learned anything
from that war, but hopes America
has. He declared:
eff people want to stop war
they can do it, but I'm tired of
this psalm-singing neutrality.
To have real peace we must
have 100 per cent neutrality.
Americans should go into the
war zone on their own RESPONSE
bility, we should refuse not only
to sell war supplies, we should
refuse to sell even food.
But if war comes We ought
to be prepared to win it and
win it with the least loss and
least profit to anyone"

TAX HIT BY
SHERRILL

BOSTON, Sept. "a G.N.S).
Excessive government taxation
was charged with being the chief
waste in the American distribu-
ton system here today by c. O.
Sheriff., president of the American
Retail Federation, in a speech be-
fore the Boston Conference on
Distribution.
Sheriff. refuted what he termed
"the popular idea that the dis
tributor Is an unnecessary evil"
by defining his function as "the
placing of goods in the consumers
hands to best satisfy his desires
at the lowest possible costs"
At the present time, the head
of the Retail Federation said, the
distributor is engaged in q fight
to cut the wastes of distribution
to minimum. He said:
Every penny taken from the
public in taxes, whether on pro-
ducer, distributor, or consumer,
that is not absolutely essential
for necessary public service, Is
waste and only waste. 1t is moth
ing less than a burden loaded
on the back of the consumer,
making more and more difficult
his already too difficult exist
ence."
The blame for the past five
years of unemployment was placed
by Sheriff. on "the steadily in
creased imposition of an unneces-
sary burden of waste in the shape
of taxes and restrictive regimenta-
ton of all business, especially dis
tribution,"
