June at 587,500 tona, "and compares with 438,400 in July, 1939 The average monthly pig iron output for 1932 was 297,800 tons and that of steel 438,100 tons.

* Cotton: Buying by commission houses and European interests was. apparently induced by the strength of the Sterling exchange and its con- sequent effect on inflation theories.

Silver: The volume of business was almost a record. A proportion of commission-houses, speculators and foreign interests bought. The Trade and banks were sellers, the motivating causes being inflation theories.
