NO TURNING CLOCK BACK London And Convertibility Of Sterling Threat To World
Trade
London, Aug. 10.
Responsible comment in London tonight on the latest sterling news from Washington was that things had gone beyond the stage of asking whether Washington should release Britain from the sterling convertibility obligation. As London saw it, the imperative need was to find resources in the next weeks so that convertibi- lity can be maintained and the collapse of world trade avoided.

Palmer. secretary of the Colorado Mining Associa- tion, predicted that sharp re ductions in United States output of copper, lend and zinc will result from President Harry Truman's veto of the metal sub- aldy bill. He estimated It may result in cutting off one-third of he nation's zinc requirements and one-fourth of its copper and lead.
