.' .. . `' s ` Anaconda Copper Mining Company 25 Broadway, New York ' August 29, 1946 Ur. R. E. Dwyer, Executive Tice President Anaconda Copper Mining Company Building- ' Dear Ur. Dwyer: In view of our various discussio; regarding the liquidation of the pigment business, u will be interested in some figures I have Just o ined from East Chicago. As you know, durln t two months the work of Ur. Hurless* Depart ' a men in the field has been coordinated-sit that we would dispose of all marke t\cks and lead-in-oil as soon as per&slble. I am glad to all stocks in ware- houses throughoi, Ltes have been liquidar ted with the e; ptioJ se on the Pacific Coast, It is possible hat the'N ter majority of the Pacific tonnage I 11 be 11\; fd^ted by September 1st, but .will be ffle'on hand for sale.in in places on the Coast, the as " and of course is not as great fie United States. This situation ties, particularly with the special ' xide or White Lead that move rather y conditions. ., : . At'East Chicago all the Uixed Metals, Dry .White Lead and Lead-in-Oil have been sold, and there la only 128 tons Of Zinc Oxide left. Most of this Oxide will move out in August but some will probably have to be sold In September because the entire ton nage consists of special Oxides that are not consumed on a volume bases. . In view of the many grades involved in . numerous warehouses, I believe that the sales force . under Ur. Hurless have done an excellent Job in 11- quidating the tonnage as fast as they have.
