GERMANY IS ACTIVE
Since 1925 Germany has rank- j
<ed as the second largest copper |
consuming nation in the world, •
being surpassed only by the Unit
ed States. In 1923 and 1924 Ger- j
many ran slightly behind France
nnd Great Britain but due to a 76
percent increase in 1925 over
1924, she has since regained sec
ond place, according to the Den
'ver Mining Record.
In 1930 Germany consumed
* 204.918 tons of copper or almost j
12 percent of total world con- j
sumption of 1,731,713 tons- In that;
period the United States absorbed j
practically 48 percent or 808,757 j
tons.
In 1930 the United States ship
ped 54,861 tons of copper to Ger
many or virtually 15 percent of I
<our total exports of 366,284 tons. J
In the first six months of this1
year Germany took 37,532 tons or;
17.656 percent of our total exports
of 213,962 tons.

tendency of the steam gear to stick 1
occasionally.
