KENNECOTT COPPER SETS A
BIG RECORD FOR LAST MONTH
BOSTON, Feb. 23.—From all its
mines the Kennecott Copper Corpora
tion turned out 11,878,000 pounds of
copper in January which was a slight
increase over the previous month.
Both the Alaskan mines and the Bra
den contributed to the gain, although
the major part of the increase was
from the former.
Now that the Kennecott owns all
but a very few shares of the Braden
company, the latter to all intents and
purposes is an integral part of the
Kennecott and places this company in
fifth position among the big producers,
being exceeded by the Anaconda, the
