Sulphur. Difficulties in sliipping tlie raw material continue 

 to restrict this market. Prices are lirm and unchanged. The 

 Export Council at Washington has discredited the report that 

 an embargo has been placed on exports of sulphur to Canada. 



Toluol. There are no supplies available as the government 

 is taking over the entire production for making trinitrotoluol, 

 one of the most valuable high explosives. 



Whiting, Business has been good and the consumption of 

 both whiting and chalk is far in excess of the supply. Prices 

 are firm and unchanged. 



Zinc Oxide. Active demand for this material has been the 

 feature of last month's chemical market. It is of interest to con- 

 sumers to know that the time is approaching for a new schedule 

 of prices for French process zinc oxide.
