Although the fi successful plant for the elec- g of copper was built and operated in England in 1869, by the turn of the century he United States had beccme the leader in that articular field of metallurgy. The reasons for this leadership are immediately apparent. The United States was not only the largest producer of primary metal, but is also constituted the greatest market for use of copper of exceptional purity. Its tech- nicians, recognizing the advantages of the free inter- change of their knowledge, did not hesitate to publish the results of research as well as of operat- ing experience. Within the last ten years the United States has not maintained its proportion of total world mine output of copper, even though the volume of its production has, on the whole, increased. New prop- erties in other countries have taken an increasingly large share of the copper market. But the United States had, until recently, maintained its position in the refining busines Even that position is now ng YOU PROMISED Season upon season ago you prom- ised Mother you would have a “good” picture taken—especially for her.

The American Bureau of Metal Sta- tistics has released figures which show that in 1930 the United States contributed only 68 per cent. of the world’s electrolytically refined copper, |compared with 75 per cent. in the previous year.| |No matter what turn the copper market may take, this percentage will probably continue to decrease. | Canada, Chile, Belgium, Australia, and other pri- mary producers are desirous of refining their own output. Northern Rhodesian blister will probably be refined in England when production reaches sizable proportions. The trend is one that cannot be stopped. Man is a creature quick to imitate, the world over. Suc- cess in any field breeds the desire for duplication. If the United States—through electrolytic copper refineries, automobile factories, dios, and countless other prodmctive facilities—has led the way in an improvement of standards of living, it must be prepared to see other countries adopt its technique, even use its own technicians. To some observers, such tendencies indicate com- petition.

That is a possible interpretation, but another is the interpretation which ‘Engineering and Mining Jour- nal prefers. Even as water seeks its own level, so do the laws of commerce. They are hampered and rstrained in many places by tariffs and subsidies, but in the end copper will be refined, automobiles moving- pictures will be made, where combination of source and market is most economic. The combination still holds in the United States. Its reserves of copper are large, its con- sumption of the metal is the greatest in the world Those factors are sufficient assurance that the country’s refineries will still play a large part in the copper industry. the Federal Prohibition agents really should be re- leased from sampling the evidence.
