'IHREAT The difficulites of lead and zliic. however-especially so far as Caiiadian producers are con- cerncd—are compounded by the fact that the United States, after encouraging Canadian production for some years, now has not only stopped stockpiling but shows signs of increasing tariff bar- ricrs. In an immediate sense. the tariff threat is a grave one. Consolidated Mining and Smelt- iiig Company of Canada Ltd., major world lead-zinc producer at Trail, B.C., estimates that if the highest tariff which might be imposed is put on, Canadian zinc production will be reduced one-

’ to! outside controls which can "distort the situation. there‘ is no question in our mind that supply will balance demand within a rel- atively short time —- perhaps as early as mid-1958.” The lead-zinc industry is not simply standing by until ‘demand increases of itself—it is taking steps to make the ‘demand in- crease.

(AP) —- A “mixture like pancake batter” dropped from aircraft is one of the most promising new methods of fighting forest fires, says an official of the U.S. Forest Service. M. M.

Nelson described how the mix- ture, sodium calcium borate, was used last summer in .136 forest fires. He said the borate was dropped _from 26 conventional- type airplanes which had been equipped with tanks to hold the material. Some 913,000 gallons of water and borate were used.

In time with this, the Amer- \ican Zinc Institute said recently it would join with “foreign inter- ests" in a broad program of ex- panded research aimed at con- -solidation and expansion of ex- isting markets and discovery of new ones."

For some two years the federal department of mines and tech- nical surveys has been working in its laboratories, in co-opera- tion with private companies, to- ward increased uses, and will co- operate in the research being un- dertaken in the United States.

In the longer-term, however, the imposition of higher tariffs by the United States seems such an unrealistic action that it is difficult to see how the situation it would create could continue.

For, basically, ‘the United States has not enough lead and zinc for its own needs. And, so far as can be seen from the Ca- nadian side, higher tariffs will simply be an appeasement of American marginal producers at the expense of the American smelting industry and public. PRESENT BRIEF
