Thrifty June brides will wait until after July to buy the silverware for their "cosy kitchenette apartments" because silver Jewelry may be cheaper after that date.

By July rhe Government will have purchased the 200,000,000 od<! ounces provided for by the Pittman act of 1018. Having sola to England in the early part of the war all the uncoined silver It had on hand at SI an ounce, the Government agreed to buy from the United States mines enough to replaoe this 200,000.000 ounces at that fixed price. The late Senator Nicholson of Colotado. appreciating the approach of a drop in the silver market, tried three months ago to have the United States call a conference of the silver using nations of the world.

The price of silver after July will be determined largely by the demands from China, India and other foreign countries. I M.
