THE INDIA RUBBER WORLD 



625 



Carbon Bisulphide had considerable call and found the mar- 

 ket short in some quarters, resulting in marking up prices about 

 3 cents a pound. 



Dry Colors. Business in rubber colors has been good, red 

 oxide going particularly well. The blacks show no change, and 

 the price undertone for the entire list is particularly firm. 



LiTHOPONE. The producers are in a favorable position to 

 maintain sufficient supplies of this material for the time at 

 least. Delivery on contracts are being regularly made and prices 

 remain unchanged. 



Le.^d Pigments. The strong position of the raw material has 

 advanced piices of all lead pigments since a month ago. The 

 market is firm and holders are not an.\ious to sell at present 

 levels on account of the prevailing uncertainty surrounding the 

 future supply. 



Sulphur Fi.our. The market is very strong and another price 

 advance has been made. Velvet lirand, in carloads, is now 

 quoted J3.90 per hundredweight. 



Whiting. The limited arrivals of chalk are not sufficient 

 to meet the continued demand for whiting. The market is strong 

 and prices have advanced, although quotations are considered 

 nominal and subject to agreement between the buyer and seller. 



Zinc O.xide. New prices on American process zinc oxide for 

 future contracts covering delivery over the second half of the 

 year show an advance of 'A cent a pound over last month's 

 quotations. French proce.ss contracts for the third quarter of 

 the year are michanged. The speculative market for spot zinc 

 oxide in second hands is much higher than contract prices. 

 S?.les have been reported at 16 cents during the month.
