porter of copper for distribution
Holland is ordinarily a large im- S. C. Morning Post .............................629
in Germany. In 1914 42,766 tona
of copper were thus shipped, as against 457 tons in the six months of the current year. Summariz ing, we get the following: In- oluding Dutob ports, the enemy imported 132,284 tons of copper in the first half of 1914, as against 457 tone in the corresponding period of 1915. Through other Countries he may have received about 10,000 tons. Thete figuren give us a measure of the efficacy of the control established, and the probability of the stories as to the growing scarcity of the metal.
