rcduction.s lias bocii readied and the outlook is reported as 

 encouraf^ing. 



Gas Bi..\t :k. The tire manufacturing demand continues to im- 

 prove with the steadily increasing output of tires. 



Hexamethvlene Tf.trami.ne. Prices have dropped well below 

 the dollar mark. Plenty of stock is available at 83 to 85 cents a 

 pound with inciuiries limited. Latterly supplies were reported at 

 80 cents. 



LiTHAROE. There has been no marked increase of interest 

 among consumers since the price reduction became effective. The 

 drop in price was 34 cents below the rate ruling for several 

 months previously. The price now fixed is 7^ to 7-)4 cents. 



LiTHOi'ONE. The demand holds steady and of good volume. 

 Price 6 to dyi cents a pound in bags. One of the largest producers 

 has doubled its capacity within recent weeks owing to the extend- 

 ing use of lithopone for outside painting as well as for tires. 



Solvent Naphtha. Routine business is reported with prices 

 rather weak. 



Sublimed Lead. In this line the reduction in price was set at 

 K--cent a pound. Some increase of demand followed; and more 

 will follow as the mechanical rubber soods industry gathers head- 

 way in the expected revival of business. 



Sulphur. Demand is reported rather sluggish and prices un- 

 changed. 



T.VLC. The call for domestic and foreign grades is steady and 

 prices unchanged. 



Whiting. Consumption fair, and supplies ample to take care of 

 any business that may reasonably be expected. 



Zinc' Oxide. There is a steadily increasing demand from the 

 tire manufacturers, which, it is anticipated, will continue for some 

 time as the factories regain normal production. 



THE MARKET FOR CHEMICALS AND COMPOUND- 

 ING INGREDIENTS 



NEW YORK 



IN most lines 01 pigments and compounding ingredients a ten- 

 dency to steady increase in demand has been noted during the 

 past month. The chief price changes were reductions of Yi and 

 .)^-cent a pound on lead oxides. The effect of these reductions 

 in ^timulating demand on the part of consumers will not react on 

 production for at least a month. 



Aniline Oil. There is an excessive supply of this material 

 and the call is purely routine. Prices range from 18 to 26 cents 

 a pound. 



Barytes. Business in this material during most of .August has 

 been steady but sub-normal, some improvement being noted in the 

 latter part of the month. There is little barytes of foreign origin 

 on the market. 



Benzol. The demand on the short supply continues abnormal. 

 Foreign business is large but shipments arc hampered owing to 

 lack of transport facilities. The short supply will not be remedied 

 until the steel industry renews operation of coke making from 

 which benzol is a by-product. 



Blanc Fixe. The market is quiet and business light. 



Cadmium Sulphide. Remains steady at $1.20 a pound. 



Carbon Bisulphide. Supplies are abundant and prices range 

 from 6 to 7'/: cents a pound. 



Carbon Tetrachloride. There has been a well-sustained de- 

 mand and ample stocks. Prices have held firm at lOj/; to 12 cents 

 a pound. 



China Clay. Liberal imports arrived early in the month. 

 There is now a good stock in the market and a fair call. 



Dry Colors. Activity has not been marked. The end of price
