INSURANCE COMPANY STOCKS INDUSTRIAL, OIL & MINING STOCKS Shortage oi Metals Prompts Hughes Action Howard Hughes, Las Vegas, billionaire, is reported to have been buying old silver and gold mining claims in Nevada because he foresees a serious shortage of the precious metals by the mid-1970- s. This is the reason as reported by a Hughes consultant in the Los Angeles Times in a feature article on the industrialist's purchase of 500 rlaima in the Tonopah area at a cost of several million dollars. The aide also was quoted as saying Hughes believes much silver and gold remain in the old properties which can be recovered by improved mining methods. . . |
