Show COPPER SITUATION 1H LOCAL CIRCLES Local Authorities Deem the Outlook Out-look Bright for the Large Producers. The action of tho copper stocks throughout the eastern markets of late has boon quite a disappointment to the West in several ways, entailing financial finan-cial loss and uncertainty. Copper-mining cirelos are beginning lo -wonder what tho immodinto future has in store., and tho fato of coppor stocks is creating creat-ing as much interest nnd arousing as much speculation ns the immediate future fu-ture of tho price of tho rod metal itself. it-self. Many are asking if valuations aro being changed, if anothor basis of calculation cal-culation as to ooppers and their rightful levels is dosirablo or imminont. Practically a complete canvass of tho Salt Lako copper offices has brought to light various opinions, the mnjoritj- of which aro Ln effect, that tho copper situation, sit-uation, while complicated, has lost none of its attractiveness for the big producer pro-ducer or tho average investor. Tt is pointed out that tho delay in consumers consu-mers entering the coppor market for their quota of red motnl haa clouded tho situation so that few buying orders or-ders for coppor stocks nrc coming in. There can bo little if any consoling levels attained by stocks so long ns no ono wants to purchase. It is pointed out by local authorities that in tho immediate future Utah is to ha.ve a decided advantage in copper production. Great, organizations aro paving tho way to an immense production produc-tion within tho State and at nn extremely ex-tremely low cost per pound. The uses and consoquont demnnds for tho metal are expetced confidently lo be incroascd with time, but it will bo the fellow who can place chenp copper on the market who will got tho business. It stands to reason, therefore, that should copper cop-per prices drop to IS cents or thereabouts there-abouts a pound, there will bo a good profit possiblo for all organizations possessing pos-sessing (heir own reduction works for troatmcnt of enormous tonnages. This will naturally bring about a centralization of tho copper-producing industry. The small fellow with onlv a mine, evon of liberal proportions, will have to -sell to tho big fellow or close down. Tho general tendency of tho times in overy line of industry is the same, and the red metal production will not be an exceptidn. There is hope, however, it is pointed out, for the owner own-er of the copper properly without the necessary cnpital uehind" him to place it on a logical .bnsis, in that he hns n splendid opportunity lo dispose of his interests during the present preliminary prelimin-ary sparring of tho big fellows for the best that the county contains in a copper-mi no line. This competition will not last always, but while it does it is expected that big profits will be accepted ac-cepted rather than lose much by holding hold-ing on with the expectation of accomplishing accom-plishing much through individual or detached de-tached effort.
