There is some reason to believe that Rus- sia may seek a new understanding with the syndicate, and no doubt each side will be willing to modify its position. ; . e f Daily Alaska Empire | JOHN W.

He succeeded brilliantly, and his precepts are the 3 soul of the news agency. Without doubt, the rights of man are more se- cure because of the labors of Mr. Stone. The virtual certainty that news of an event, an under- taking or a policy will be sent to the four corners of the earth, has given rulers, Prime Ministers and lesser leaders reason to pause and consider the re- actions of public opinion. In the Associated Press Mr. Stone has left a Iglonous n iment. It is a memorial more en- during than a shaft-of marble. The structure which he built is set upon a foundation so solid that it |will last as long as civilization itself. THE PLATINUM MARKET.

A relatively small amount of the pure metal is used in dental work while the electrical industry consumed 12 per cent. during 1927, The great mass of the production, however, is directed to jewelry channels. For years platinum has been marketed by agreement through an agency which allo- cated to each country a specific production quota based on world consumption and the potential output of the country. The Rus- sian break from the selling agreement oc- curred in the early part of 1927 when agents for the Soviet Government refused to re- new their contract with the distributing (Cincinnati Engquirer.)
