Nickel Prices At Steady level .

TORONTO. (CP) John P‘. Thompson, president of Interna- tional Nickel Company oi Canada. Ltd. said Wednesday it is import- ant so far as possible, that the price basis of nickel remain stable over some period of time.

The company’: price. he said in an address prepared for delivery to International Nickel’: annual meeting. remained unchanged at 60 cents (U. 5.) since January, 1953. He felt pressure. either up or down. should be resisted, and price should short-term but ion; - terin siderations. ‘

Nickel supplies for civilian pur- poses in the United States. after meeting defence and stockpile_ re- quirements. are inadequate, he said. On the other hand. consider- able new nickel capacity wtll be established in the next few yelrs. and this might prove to be tem- porarily in excess of demand.

The company’: $16,000,000 plant now being built near Copper Cliff. Ont, for the recovery of nickel and iron ore from nickel-ferrous pyrrhotite, will ultimately yield about 1,000,000 tom yearly of high- grade iron ore as a by-product of nickel recovery.

This iron ore would be higher in grade than any new recovered in quanity in North America. and would contain at least 65 per cent. iron natural and less than two per cent silica. It would command a premium price for direct use in open hearth and electric furnace steel production in Canada and the United States.

“That doesn‘t go very far to- wards solving the problem," he con- tinued.

Instead of being concerned with “political intrigue" the two gov- ernments should concern them- selves with trying to lighten the existing tax burden. solving the unemployment problem, or at least levying what additional taxes were necessary in ways that would not harm the small wage-earner.

Additional revenue, if needed. should be got by higher corpora- tion profits taxes, succession dut- ies. taxes on capital gains or on mineral rights.
