What such a price would mean to the East, where silver constitutes considerable part of private wealth and is also largely used as a medium of exchange can be imagined, but the difficulties of artificially maintaining the price at that gure are also obvious. In the absence of international co- operation. silver prices would not be raised to the same extent in other countries and the metal would consequently gravitate to America.

Asia Lands, Limited, has received the following report from their New York correspondenta, E A. Pierce & Co. There was nothing in today's market to give a clue to future action and there is nothing new upon which to base an opinion. Trading remains largely professional.
Wheat: A hervous and erratic market. Many authorities advise to void selling on extreme weak spots. Unless renewed inflation talk or something constructive developa, aivances will be only fair.
Cotton: India was reported to be selling. Trade absorved offerings but demand was insuficient to take up long liquidation.
:..
Bilver: Opened easy. Truding was light. There was some scattered over-night selling. The decline brought out local support, based on the steadiness of Starling.
