NEW YORK - For the first
time in a good many months
domestic copper prices rar

SILVER That the White House
itself is anxious for a change in
the silver purchase act is evil
denced by federal reserve board
head Eccles. He has plan which
would do away with 80 per cent
Of the silver buying program. He
suggests that silver imports be
stopped and that only domestic
output be taken. and then at only
so cents per ounce.
The silver purchase program
did turn out to be one of the New
Deals white elephants. All silver
producing countries dumped in
the United States. but it hasn't
done the U. S. much good.
FISK TIRE - Private tire in
dustry reports are that peak Of
new tire sales for the year have
passed. But those close to Fisk
Rubber say its best sales period
is just ahead. The company isn't
expected to be hurt by the pend
ing curtailment OF automobile out
put since its largest volume Of
business comes from replacement.
That's why il is said Fisk's second
quarter results will outrun those
of the first quarter.
COTTON -Commodity traders
hear that Mr.. Rooevelt and Sec
rotary Wallace quietly dropped
their world cotton dumping idea
because of a report from Attorney
General Murphy that not bale
can be touched before July 81 un-
less all handling charges are paid

cost high above previous White

anyway, below the estimates of
