NEW YORK, December Ling of « Uritain and other na tions on gold basis has tailed 1o istimulate gold production. e United States production of gold this ar, it Lecame known from Govern ment officlals toda is expected to drop below $50,000,000. Thix 's less | than half the amount produced in| 1915, when gold output was at its| peak. That year United States gold ores yielded $101,075.000. Then this mount represented 21.5 per cent of the entire amount produced in llIP world, but the percentige 1 creased sharply since that time. World out-turn since 1 has ranged downward from $468,799,000 to $384.500,000 in 1924, It probably will be slightly higher than the atter figure this year, since Canada will| produce more gold, owing to discov ery of new highgrade depsits, and South Africa and Russia are expect | to show increases. Mining Experts Worried. In America, the phrase “iU's mine” has ceased to express richness In many cases gold mines, once val uable, now are liabilities rather than assets. In other words, it costs more to mine and treat their ore than the ores return. This fact is causing con | siderable anxlety in mining circl and various efforts have heen'(mudc to rectify the situation and efcourage gold mining. To date, these have not been effective. - It is conservatively estimated that the cost of producink gold has risen 160 per cent since 1914, The selling price of gold in America has been fixed by law at $20.67 an ounce since {1905, In London there is a slightranse in prices caused by the fluctuations of exchange. Other metals have ud vanced In price. as costs moved up | ward. but this has been lexally im- possible with gold Use of Gold Declines. The use of gold In manufacture of jewelry and the arts has declined rather than Increased recentiy. The vogu~ tor platinum wedding rings has had a decided effect on the amount of ®old used for ring manufacture. Cir. alation of xold coins, which entailed wear, destruction and loss with con sequent placement, has ceased to a large extent. Notwithstanding this there is about 40 per cent more gold used In the arts than is produced in this country annually Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of the metal on which world values are based is being wasted and The working of only rich parts gold-bearing veins entails the Joss vond recovery of lower garde ore. only the richesy deposits pay to mine. | About 10 to 12 per cent of the world production of gold comes through the mining of copper. lead and zine, ac cording to Government officials, and the fmprovement in the output of metals this yvear has caused a further i falling off in activity of properties, the main produet of which is gold Want Tax Removed. Stimulation of the demand for gold bullion y the return to the gold standard of European countries failed to make its appearance, largely be. cause central nd agencies in | those countries made successful efforts to control the movement and use of gold.
