WASHINGTON, Aug., 10, (^—De
claring that under the Pittman Act
no further purchase of silver was
necessary to replace • silver dollars
melted and sold to England during
the world war, the government
filed in the Supreme Court a brief
opposing a review requested by the
American Silver Producers Asso
ciation and others seeking to com
pel the purchase of approximately
14.500.000 ounces of silver.
Insisting that the lower courts
had properly held that those who
bought proceedings had failed to
show they had any silver to sell and
therefore were without sufficient
interest to maintain a suit, the gov
ernment declared that on the mer
its of the controversy, aside from
technicalities of htecase,acquisition
of the silver and recoinage of silver
dollars had actually been complet
ed.
Thirsty tourists cooled them
selves with approximately 10,009

this summer.
