The International Aluminum Syn- dicate 'has now fiized the price of the metal for next year’s delivery at 160 marks per 100 kg.

The syndicate, however,_. will not dis- pose of the entire output, for 1913 at this price. there being: a general View among members that produc- tion during the next twelve months will not be able to keep pace with Consumption. and that still higher prices will be possible. On the oth- er hand. syndicate has all along been emphatic in asserting its intention of in no way handicapping,r the de- velopment of the aluminum~consum- ing indnStries hy unduly raising pric- es. At $390 per ton manufacturers have quite a 200d margin of profit. though the price cannot be. consider- ed at all excessive in View of the present levels of metals generally, and particularly of copper and tin.

It is not the general impression that the present directors had any intention of robbing: inVestors by the sale of the valuable lilavi‘dson claims. The true merits of the case would probably simmer down to the lack of sufficient capital or ready funds to prosecute further develop- ment work and a desire on the part of a considerable number of stock- holders for a change from the pre- sent management. The mine itself was never in better physical condi- tion and so far as can be seen ably looked after here so far as develop- ment work is concerned.
