I of buying these metals from' for

quicksilver, and the destruction of
said investments and crippling
of said enterprise would leave ,
the country dependent on foreign j
sources for its supply of said me
tals in war and peace, and the ;
accessibility and freedom from
enemy control of such foreign j
sources may well be questioned;
and
WHEREAS, until the uncondi- j
tional surrender of the enemies of
the United States in the current
war is an accomplished fact, the
security of our war effort should
not be imperiled or interfered
with through the hampering of
our metal production program;
NOW, THEREFORE, be it
RESOLVED, that the Chamber
of Commerce deplores this policy
as a gross injustice to domestic
mines, and as one which saddles
the entire cost of a national for
eign policy upon the owners w'ho
have made large investments in
good faith and reliance upon the
government’s assurances that
they would be permitted to sup
ply United States war needs at
compensatory prices, at least,
during the pendency of the war;
and. be it
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the
Chamber of Commerce advocates
action by Congress looking,—
(1) To limiting the prices paid
by the United States Govern
ment to foreign producers of
tungsten and quicksilver to the
current basic domestic market
prices;
(2) To the requirement that
foreign purchases by government i
agencies of tungsten, quicksilver,
chrome, or other ores which taken

should to the extent that they ex
ceed such war needs, be stock

United States Government of a
post-war national policy that will
prevent the contents of such stock
pile from being dumped on the
market in quantities and at prices
that Will curtail future domes vie
production of such strategic me
tals below a point at which do
mestic mines can sustain devel

vision of such metals for future
national security; and
