' DAILY EMPIRE WANT AT ‘the store by Mr. Wendt this week, PAY:! Manager Don Armour Jr., stated. Among the many interesting policies credited to the New Dcal: one of importance from an economic standpoint is that pertaining to silver. In the spring of last year, as a result of compromises between the White House and the currency expansionists, what was known as the Silver Purchase Act of 1934 was passed by Congress. It authorizes the pur- chase of silver in the open market until it reached a price of $1.29 per ounce, and also the purchase of an amount of silver necessary to main- tain a 257 to 75", ratio between silver and gold. Since the passage of this Act, the treasury has been buying silver at an average rate of 41,000,000 ounces per month and its present hold- ings have a value of $1,450,000,000. The amount of silver ;needed to maintain the one to three ratio with present holdings of $2,866,000,000 would require the purchase of an additional 1,000,000,000 ounges, an amount far in excess of the visible world supply, which is estimated at 635,000,000 ounces. | However, no time limit is specified in the Purchase Act for obtaining the necessary silver, and at the present rate of pur- chase, it would require something over two years for the treasury to complete its program. Holding no britf for or against this legislation, the faet remains that silver can no longer be regarded as a lowly commodity but appar- ently is about to resume its place as a precious metal and may even ful- fill the dreams of the late William Jennings Bryan. Selling for 40 cents an ounce in 1934, it has gradually moved up to its present value of 7714 cents, and it scems very probable that the price eventually may+go much higher. In fact, the leading silver adherents in Congress predict that within a few months the price of silver will be stabilized the world over at $1.29 per ounce. This may be a somewhat optimistic view of the situation, but it is certainly within the realms of possibility. BLACK PINE SILVER MINES We are reliably informed that BLACK PINE SILVER MINES of Montana will resume operations at an early date. . Considering its earlier production record and the fact that it i8 now equipped with a new and modern mill, it is logical to expeet that this property will again be one of the important sources of silver in the ‘state. f ' Shares are listed on the Seattle Mining Exchange.
