HISTORY AND BUSINESS
5. Outline briefly the general character of the business done and intended to be done by the registrant and its subsidiaries.
Registrant is an operating company and also owns stocks of subsidiaries. The registrant and its subsidiaries constitute an integrated enterprise which includes the mining and smelting of copper, lead, ring, gold and sahrer ores, and the refining of the metal products obtained there from; also the manufacture and distribution of semi-finished and finished copper and brass products, white lead, zinc oxide, superphosphate fertilizer, and lumber. In addition to copper, lead and zinc there are recovered from the ores treated, silver, gold, arsenic, cadmium and molybdenite. Of conndtoahte importance is the production of electrolytic zinc and the manufacture therefrom of zinc oarfde; also the smelting of lead ores and the production therefrom of refined lead. These metals art derived by the registrant and its subsidiary, International Smelting and Refining Com pany, chiefly from ores and concentrates purchased by them. Copper ores and concentrates, blister copper and scrap metals are purchased and treated, but the copper production is derived principally from mines owned by the registrant and its subsidiaries. Purchased'ores and concen trates also contain silver and gold. Among fabricated products produced by the registrant's sub sidiaries are copper and brass wire, sheets, tubes, rods, cable, extrusion products, forgings, stamp ings, etc. The fabricating facilities of said subsidiaries in the United States have a capacity capable of using an amount of copper approximately equal to the refining capacity of the copper refin ing plants of registrant and its subsidiaries in the United States, such fabricating capacity being in excess of the present annual productive capacity of the copper mines in the United States owned by the registrant and its subsidiaries.
Within the borders of the United States the registrant or subsidiaries in-which it owns or controls a majority of the voting stock, own copper mints in Montana, California, and Nevada; zinc-lead-silver mines in Montana and Utah; smelters in Arizona, Utah, and Montana; metal refineries in Montana, Indiana, and New Jersey; copper and/or brass fabricating plants in Montana, Connecticut, New York,* Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, California, Illinois and Rhode Island; zinc oxide plants in Ohio and Indiana; white lead plant in Indiana; lumber mills in Mon tana ; coal mines In Montana and Wyoming; phosphate rock mines In Idaho, and miscellaneous transportation and other facilities pertinent or incidental to their operations.
Outside the borders of the United States subsidiaries of the registrant operate copper mines and reduction works in Mexico and Chile, together with facilities pertinent or incidental thereto, and one fabricating plant in Canada.
At the present time approximately one-third of the mine production of copper, all of the mine and custom production of zinc, and nearly all of the output of fabricated materials, of registrant and its subsidiaries are within the boundaries of the United States. Part of the foreign mine pro duction of copper is refined under bond at the Raritan Copper Works owned by International Smelting and Refining Company, a subsidiary of the registrant, in the United States, and the refined copper is shipped abroad for sale with the exception of a small portion withdrawn from bond and fabricated by The American Brass Company and Anaconda Wire and Cable Company, subsidi aries of the registrant, into products for export, the duties paid on the withdrawal from bond being substantially refunded upon application for drawbacks.
Registrant and its subsidiaries intend to continue to do the business described above.
6. Outline briefly the general development of the business for the preceding five years.
During the last five years the operations of the registrant and its subsidiaries have been cur tailed by reason of the reduced demand for copper and copper and brass products in the United States, the added supply of copper produced by newly developed mines abroad, and the existence of surplus stocks of copper, which surplus stocks have been substantially reduced in the last two years. The production of registrant and its subsidiaries is adjusted from time to time to market conditions. For further information see answers to items 7 and 47.
During the past five yean certain subsidiaries of the registrant have acquired the properties
and assets, or the controlling stock interest of other subsidiaries. Among such acquisitions was the
acquisition by International Smelting and Refining Company of the stock of Raritan Copper Works
and International Lead Refining Company from the registrant for $8,000,000 principal amount of
debentures and 30,000 shares of stock of International Smelting and Refining Company, the trans
fer occurring in the month of December, 1934. The properties of Raritan Copper Works and
International IrzA Refining Company were transferred to International Smelting and Refining
Company, and thereafter Raritan Copper'Works and International Lead Refining Company were
dissolved. In addition. International Smelting and Refining Company during 1932 and 1933 acquired
a substantial interest in the capital stock of Mountain Gty Copper Company, the properties of which
were then a prospect in. cocrse.of development.
On May 14, 1930, Anaconda W2ro-and Cable Company of California, a wholly-owned subsidi
ary of Anaconda Wire and Cable Company, acquired all the assets of California Wire & Cable Com
pany, owning and operating ptorfl at Orange and Oakland, California, referred to is the answer to
item 7.
-
The Iniiingirinrt faaTitwa of Raritan Copper Works at Perth Amboy, New Jersey, acquired
by T1111 n inlit --f
and.Refimsg Company as.above stated, in purchasing and treating scrap
metals, have beeh'*alarged, and between 1930 and 1934 substantial replacements and improvements
were made in the Toronto plant of Anaconda-American Brass, Ltd. Io 1934 the properties of The Cananea Consolidated Copper Company, S. A., in Mexico began production of molybdenite in substantial quantities as a by-product of its copper operation.
During 1934, as the result of a strike; the copper and rinc production from Montana properties was materially curtailed.
An import tax of 4c per pound on copper imported into the United States herara* effective in June, 1932, for a period of three years. Such tax was extended for a period of two years by an Act passed at the recent session of Congress. Prior to the imposition of the 4c tax it was the practice to market in the United States a part of the copper output of the registrant's subsidiaries in Chile and Mexico. The production of the registrant's subsidiaries in Chile and Mexico since the imposition of the tariff has been sold abroad.
Owing to a substantial increase in consumption of copper in foreign countries, as well as to the imposition of the import tax referred to above, the proportion of the total copper shipments of the registrant and subsidiaries to foreign markets has materially increased.
The following table is presented for the purpose of showing the relation of the gross sales of copper for delivery outside of the United States and Canada (based on proceeds erf sale) to the total sales of all products made by the registrant and its subsidiaries whose accounts were
with those of the registrant (including gross earnings from miscellaneous service companies), with out deduction of operating and other expenses and charges, for the period January I, 1930 to June 30, 1935:

I. PROPERTIES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADA
A. PRINCIPAL MONTANA PROPERTIES (owned by registrant except as otherwise noted)
Properties in Butte District Mineral lands owned in the Butte District, Silver Bow County, Montana, comprise approxi
mately 4,000 acres. A substantial part of this acreage, approximately 2,000 acres, is but little prospected. The acreage explored shows ore deposits containing copper, zinc, silver, lead, gold, manganese, and other minerals, with copper the predominant metal. The ore deposits occur in strong persistent fissure vein systems having a general east-west strike and steep southerly dip. The ore bodies are from 5 to 100 feet wide, with an average mining width of 15 feet.
s
There are
vertical shafts (excluding ventilating shafts) ranging in depth from 1,500
to 4,100 feet, through which mining operations can be conducted. Prospecting and development
underground are by means of cross-cuts and drifts or headings along the veins^
The ores and vein systems are much disturbed and displaced by later faults. The broken and intensely altered granite wall rocks adjacent to the ores necessitate heavy timbering of all openings made within or along the veins. For this reason mining companies in the Butte Dis trict early adopted the present policy of not developing or blocking out in advance more ore re serves than are needed for an economic and well-balanced mine operation. A development program of developing a ton of ore in reserve for each ton of ore mined is followed. The vein structure and the ore minerals responsible for the large production of high grade ores in the past continue to the deepest mine openings yet made in the district.
The mines are equipped to produce monthly, ores and precipitates containing approximately 30,000,000 pounds of recoverable copper. During the years 1925 to 1929, inclusive, production averaged approximately 20,000,000 pounds per month, but in recent years has been curtailed. It is believed that a production such as prevailed during the 1925-1929 period could be maintained from these mines for many years to come.
Butte, Anaconda & Pacific Railway Company
The ore from the aforementioned mines is transported over the line of Butte, Anaconda &
Pacific Railway Company (a 100^>-owned subsidiary of the registrant) a distance of 27 miles to
Anaconda for treatment. The road comprises a total of 130 miles of standard gauge track, of which
121 miles are electrified. The rolling stock consists of 26 electric locomotives, 2 steam locomotives,
1,164 ore cars, and 210 miscellaneous cars.
............................
Plants at Anaconda, Montana
The Reduction Works at Anaconda, Montana, have copper and zinc concentrators capable of treating the Butte mine production and custom ores. The smelting facilities consist of roasting, reverberatory and converting plants of ample capacity to reduce to blister copper the concentrates derived from the copper ores. There is also an electrolytic zinc plant which normally operates on tbe zinc concentrates from zinc OTea mined at Butte and concentrates purchased elsewhere. In addition to tbe plants for producing copper and zinc, there are a sulphuric add plant and a plant for' producing treble superphosphate
Tbe primary crushing plate to which the copper ore is delivered can crush about 1,000 tons per
hour. The copper concentrator has a capacity to treat 13,000 tons of copper ore per day and the
zinc concentrator ljfiOO tons of sine, ore per day. The principal roasting plant contains twenty-
eight roasting faraces, of wtfefi-fourteen are available for roasting copper concentrates and four
teen for roasonyrrinc concentrates; The reverberatory furnace building contains seven gas-fired
reverberatory
equipped with waste beat boilers. The converter plant contain* seven con
verters, a roeiWflnty furnace for the treatment of slag, and three copper furnaces equipped with
noting machines for the casting of anodes.
These plants are capable of producing approximately 30,000,000 pounds of blister copper per month, but operations are on a curtailed basis.
The electrolytic zinc plant at Anaconda is capable of producing monthly approximately 9,000,000 pounds of electrolytic zinc This plant is not now in operation.
At Anaconda the registrant owns and operates a foundry and brick plant; also a water system and a street railway which provides a transportation facility to the reduction plants.
Plants at Great Falls, Montana
At Great Falls, Montana, is located an electrolytic copper refinery of sufficient capacity to treat the entire blister copper production of the Anaconda Reduction Works. The cathodes from the tank house are melted and cast into shapes for the market in a furnace refinery, which contains three copper refining furnaces which use natural gas as fuel. The furnaces are equipped with casting wheels.
The major electrolytic zinc plant is located at the Great Falls Reduction Works. The plant
is similar to the Anaconda electrolytic zinc plant but is of twice the capacity. It consists of
roasters for roasting tbe concentrates; leaching, settling and filtration equripneot for dissolving
the zinc from the roasted concentrates; electrolytic tanks for electrolyzing the zinc sulphate
solutions, casting furnaces, electrical equipment for generating direct current,
The product
<* r
js high grade electrolytic zinc. The material treated consists of concentrates produced in part by the concentrator at Anaconda from ores produced by mines owned by the registrant and from pur chased ores, in part by the International Smelting and Refining Company's concentrator at Tooele, Utah, and in part by custom shippers operating in Utah, Idaho, Montana, and other states.
Power and Fuel The plants at Great Falls, as well as the plants at Anaconda, and the mines at Butte, are sup
plied with hydro-electric power purchased from The Montana Power Company. The Butte and Anaconda operations are supplied with gas purchased from Montana Power
Gas Company, supplied from gas fields in northern Montana. The plants at Great Falls are fur nished with gas purchased from the Montana Cities Gas Company, supplied from other gas fields in northern Montana. Stand-by equipment for pulverized coal is maintained in connection with the reverberatory furnaces at Anaconda.
Lumber Operations The registrant owns approximately 625,000 acres of timber lands in western Montana.
Operations are conducted mainly for the purpose of supplying the necessary timber used in the operation of the mines and other plants. The lumber is manufactured at registrant's mills at Bonner, Montana, which can produce approximately 100,000,000 board feet per year. Part of the lumber products is sold to the trade and at retail. The Interstate Lumber Company (a 100%owned subsidiary of registrant) operates lumber yards' in several cities and towns in Montana.
Miscellaneous Operations At East Helena, Montana, registrant owns and operates a plant for the recovery of zinc oxide
from lead blast furnace slag. This plant consists of a furnace in which the slag is blown with coal dust and air. The zinc oxide which is driven off is collected in a baghoose and shipped to Great Falls for conversion into electrolytic zinc. This plant is located on lands held under a lease expiring in 1939.
Registrant's plants at Anaconda, Montana, manufacture treble superphosphate from phos phate rock shipped from phosphate mines of registrant located at Conda, Idaho. Phosphate rock is also produced for sale.
The registrant owns and operates a coal mine at Wasboe, Montana, the product of which is sold commercially.
Registrant also owns and operates a small silver producing mine in Flathead County, Montana. A subsidiary owns and operates a small gold-silver property in Madison County, Montana, from which small ore shipments are being made. Registrant operates under lease the property of Butte Copper & Zinc Company at Butte, Montana, which produces zinc and manganese ores. The lease expires July 8, 1941, but is subject to cancellation by registrant on six months notice.
In addition to the foregoing, the registrant and its subsidiaries, Deer Lodge Valley Farms Company and Blackfoot Land Development Company, own approximately 500,000 acres of cut over, agricultural, grazing, and miscellaneous lands in Montana.
The Butte Electric Railway Company operates the street car lines in the city of Butte and its suburbs. These tinea provide a transportation facility to the principal mines of registrant at Butte.
The Butte Water Company owns and operates the water system supplying the dty of Butte and the mines in the Butte District. The system includes storage reservoirs and pumping plants on the Big Hole River and elsewhere.
Diamond Coal and Coke Company operates coal mines in Wyoming. Until natural gas was brought in, these mines were the principal sources of fuel for the smelters and mines in Montana. Their production is now disposed of to the railroads and for domestic and miscellaneous purposes.
Montana Hardware Company operates a hardware business in Butte, Montana.
B. INTERNATIONAL SMELTING AND REFINING COMPANY
International Smelting and Refining Company operates the following described plants in Utah, Arizona, Indiana, Ohio, and New Jersey:
Utah At International, Tooele County, Utah, is located a reduction works containing a lead plant
for the treatment of lead ores and concentrates, ^od a copper plant for the treatment of copper

In addition, there is a concentrator for the treatment of complex zinc-lead-silver ores and lead ores and the zinc concentrates produced therefrom are shipped to the registrant's electrolytic plants in Montana. The productive capacity of the lead plant is approximately 16,000,000 pounds of lead bullion and of the copper plant *,500,000 pounds of blister copper per month. The lead bullion is refined at the International Smelting and Refining Company's refinery at East Chicago, Indiana, and the blister copper is refined either at its refinery at Perth Amboy, New Jersey, or at the refinery of the registrant at Great Falls, Montana. The complex zinc-lead-silver ores, lead ores and concentrates, copper ores and copper concentrates treated at this plant are for the most part purchased. The lead plant has been operating on a curtailed basis and the concentrator and copper plant have been shut down, but it is expected the copper plant will resume operations in October, 1935.

ises treats the slimes from the electrolytic tanks at this plant and from the. registrant's Great Falls
Refinery together with the dore bullion from the lead refinery at East Chicago*- Indiana. The
slimes from the electrolytic tanks treating anodes cast from scrap metals coofcdtt tin and lead,
which are recovered in a plant constructed especially for this purpose. The Raritan Copper Works,
when refining blister copper only, bad a capacity of approximately 46,000,000 pounds of copper
per month. The plant is being readjusted to handle an increasing volume of copper produced from
scrap. With these readjustments completed, the electrolytic refining capacity will be reduced to
approximately 40,000,000 pounds per month, depending on the type of operation. The ea-wing
capacity is in excess of this figure. This plant is operating on a curtailed basis.
A wholly-owned subsidiary of International Smelting and Refining Company (Raritan Ter minal and Transportation Company) owns a railway from Raritan Copper Works to a connection with the Lehigh Valley Railroad, a distance of approximately one mile, of which approximately one-half is leased to the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company foy a term expiring June 30, 1943.
Z Q-
(a) Utah-Delaware Mining Company;
This Company owns a mine in Bingham Canyon, Utah, which produces copper and lead-zinc ores. The mine is equipped with pumping and hoisting plants and is connected with the smelter at International, Utah, by an aerial tramway. Except for a small ore production taken out by leasers, the property is on a shutdown basis.
(b) Walker Mining Company:
This Company owns mining claims in Plumas County, California, consisting of 34 patented and 262 unpatented claims covering approximately 5,726 acres. In addition, the Walker Mining Company owns 106.22 acres of patented lands used for a mill and tunnel site.
The mineral deposits of the Walker mine contain copper, gold and silver. The ore bodies occur in a northwest-striking and easterly-dipping complex fissure zone which has been developed along its course for more than 7,200 feet. The vein is from 10 to 80 feet wide and the general aver age width of ore as stoped is approximately 30 feet. The principal vein minerals are quartz, pyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite.
The mine is operated through a 3,650-foot cross-cut tunnel leading from the mine workings to the milling plant Ore below the tunnel level is mined through shafts sunk from the adit tunnel level. Shrinkage sloping methods are used except in minor instances where timbering is required.
Tbe mine and milling plants are equipped to produce copper at the rate of twenty million pounds per annum when operated at full capacity.
For economic reasons it is impracticable to develop and block out ore bodies far in advance of current operations. Because of the width and continuity of the Walker fissure zone both on strike and dip as disclosed by past operations, and because of the nature and mineralogical charac ter of the vein ft is believed that tbe ore will persist and continue in depth and that the mine can be- operated at full capacity for many years to come.
In conjunction with tbe mine and mill operation there are office and warehouse buildings,' shops, residences, bunkhooses, schools and miscellaneous buildings. An 8.6 mile aerial tram connects the mill with ore hiss on the Western Pacific Railroad at Spring Garden, California.
This mine has been shut.down since February, 1932, but operations were resumed on or about October 1, 1935.
(c) Moattpfak City Copper Company:
Tbf^properties of Mountain Gty Copper Company are situated near Mountain Gty in the Cope Ifiaing District, Elko County, Nevada, and lie approximately midway between Mountain Home, Idaho, and Elko, Nevada. Graded highways are under construction which will connect Mountain City with both these railroad points.
Mountain Gty Copper Company holds 43 unpatented mining claims covering approximately 470 acres, and in addition owns 176.83 acres of patented agricultural lands which cany mineral rights.
Tbe property is still being developed. The Company's engineers state that development work to date indicates ore reservesr proved and probable, estimated to contain approximately 200,000,000 pounds of recoverable copper.
The property is equipped with adequate structures and machinery for mining ore and carry ing on development work. There is no equipment at the property for ore treatment, and until ore development work has reached the stage which will justify the installation at the mine of ore reduction equipment and/or the construction of a railroad to connect tbe mine with existing rail facilities, shipments of ore will be made by truck from tbe mine to existing railroad facilities and thence by rail to smelters, shipments having commenced in September, 1935.
Mountain Gty Copper Company obtains electrical power at the property from the Nevada Power Company at Jarbridge, Nevada, approximately 40 miles distant

During the years 1925 to 1929, inclusive, copper production from this property averaged approxi mately 89 315,000 pounds per annum. The productive life of this property would be approximately 16 years at such rate of production based upon the estimated recoverable copper contents of the above ore reserves.
This property has not operated since May, 1932, but recently preparation has been commenced for resumption of operations on a curtailed basis.
II. PROPERTIES OUTSIDE UNITED STATES AND CANADA
G. CHILE COPPER COMPANY
Chile Copper Company itself owns no mining properties or phots. Its 100%-owned subsidiary, Chile Exploration Company, owns craning rights, easements, concessions and claims, on lands located at and in the vicinity of Qmquicanuta, Ejovince of Antofagasta, Republic of Chile, amounting to an area of approximately 19,55ft acres.. The known ore reserves, as well as the lands used for the purpose giant sites, tailings dumps, camp sites; and miscellaneous accessory mining requirements, are kxo^ wsduB said area.
Tb*
rights are held under the Mining Code of Chile and entitle the owner to work the
mine or
property and extract the ore contained therein. Such rights and the mining ease
ments and concessions above mentioned are perpetual (except as to 49.3 acres the easement on which
expires December 31, 1939, and except in several insauces not materially important) ; the mining
rights are subject to the payment annually of a tax imposed in accordance.'wilh the Mining Code,
and the concessions and easements are subject to miscellaneous payments provided for by the respec
tive decrees. The rights, easements and concessions terminate in any event upon the permanent
abandonment of the mining operations.
Since the completion of the original prospect drilling campaign to determine the ore reserves,
there has been discovered a very material tonnage of additional ore. No detailed estimate of this
additional tonnage has been
but a preliminary estimate indicates that the ore reserves now
contain approximately 1,035,000,000 short tons of positive and probable ore, consisting of approxi
mately 360.000,000 tom of oxidized ore assaying 1.75% copper, 100.000,000 tons of mixed ore
assaying 2.87% copper, and 575,000,000 tons of sulphide ore assaying 2-27% copper, the average
assay of the entire ore reserves being 2.15% copper. The recoverable copper content of the above ore reserves would be sufficient for a production rate of 450,000.000 pounds of copper per year for
about 85 years.
The ore is mined by open cut methods, being loaded by electric shovels into standard-gauge ore cars for railway transportation to the redaction plant. The railways at the mine and plant consist of 81.2 mScs of standard-gauge track, of which 52.45 miles are electrified.
16
The present reduction plant for the recovery of copper from the oxidized ores and the oxidized minerals of the mixed ores, is complete. Certain additional plant Units will be required in the future when sulphide minerals are encountered in sufficient quantity to warrant their individual treatment. The reduction plant consists principally of. the primary crushing plant, the secondary crushing plant, leaching vats for the extraction of copper into solution; tailings disposal system, dechloridizing plant for the removal of excess chlorine from the solutions, an electrolytic tank house for the electrolytic deposition of the copper, and a melting plant for the casting of the copper into marketable shapes; in addition, there are supplementary units such as shops, warehouses, a foundry, anode casting plant, electrical receiving station and substations. There are also housing facilities for the staff, employees and workmen, together with hospitals, schools, stores, clubs, bakeries, etc. Also at Antofagasta, Chile Exploration Company owns an office building, the land on which same is located being owned in fee, and an oil storage plant located on approximately 1T acres under gov ernmental concession terminable when mines are abandoned (except as to one acre as to which the concession expires December 31, 1949), but subject to payment of annual taxes.
The mine and plant can produce approximately 450,000,000 pounds of refined copper, per year. However, due to conditions in the world's markets, the production of Chile Exploration Company has been curtailed in recent years.
At Tocopilla on the Pacific Coast of Chile, Chile Exploration Company owns a turbo-gen erator power station having an installed capacity of 100,000 K.W.. an oil storage plant, and a townsite containing housing facilities for staff, employees and workmen, together with a hospital, school and store. The substantial part of the lands on which the power station itself is located is owned in fee. A portion thereof is occupied under an easement granted by governmental decree No. 2485, dated October 29, 1926 (being a renewal of a prior concession), for an indeterminate period up to 60 years, expiring October 29, 1986. This easement also granted a renewal of the concession to maintain on government lands the original transmission line between Tocopilla and Chuquicamata and an easement to lands 10G meters wide by 140 kilometers long for the erection of an additional transmission line between the same point*. For supplemental purposes of the plant, the Chile Exploration Company occupies in addition three parcels of land aggregating about one and two-thirds acres under leases from the government, one of which may be cancelled on six months' notice, another which continue* for tha duration of the Company's requirements, and the * third which expires December 31, 1941. The oiL storage plant ai Tocopilla (as adjunct of and adjacent to the power plant) is located on government, lands undeTTfeeree No.. 1756,'dated August 14, 1917, which extended for 25 year* from April 17, 1919, an easement for the use of said lands. The Chile Exploration Company*! townsite at Tocopilla is located on lands pursuant to an ease ment granted by said governmental decree No. 1756 dated August 14,-1917, for a period expiring August 14, 1947; Power is transmitted to Chuquicamata by transmisrioc lines for a distance of approximately flunks with a voltage of approximately 110,0001
By decree-Jfih 3645, dated July 31, 1934, the Company is also granted the right to nse lands for a telephone fine from Tocopilla to Chuquicamata. The easement is indeterminate as to rim* but lapses if the private nature of the purpose for which it is granted is modified or discontinued.
By decree No. 534, dated March 13, 1914, as renewed by decree No. 1964, dated May 3, 1929, the Company is entitled to occupy lands for the purpose of building a dam, settling tanks and pipe lines and a telephone line from 3aa Pedro to Chuquicajzatz, a distance of approxi mately 37 miles, and to occupy government lan.ls as shown by maps accompanying the decree, consisting of a plot 300 meters long by 150 meters wide and a strip 20 meters wide, by 60 kilo meters long. These rights continue until December 31, 1943.
Copper and supplies between Chuquicamata and the port of Antofagasta are transported over the Antofagasta (Chile) & Bolivia Railway (a public carrier not owned or controlled by the Chile Copper Company), a distance of about 162 miles. At Antofagasta the copper is loaded into ocean vessels for shipment to various ports of destination.
Chile Copper Company owns ail of the shares of Chile Steamship Company Incorporated, which owns one freight steamship and also has under charter two oil tankers for the purpose of transporting oil principally to Tocopilla and Antofagasta, Chile.
Greene Cananea Copper Company itself owns d o mining properties. Its subsidiary, The Cananea Consolidated Copper Company, S. A., holds mining claims or titles of concession (under the laws of Mexico) covering lands comprising an area of about 9,200 acres, situated at Cananea, State of Sonora, Mexico. The claims consist of grants from the Mexican Government to mine and recover the metals so long as said Mexican Company pays the annual taxes thereon. The reduction works, industrial railway, power plant and tailings disposal sites of said Mexican Com pany are situated on lands covered by the claims, title to which lands is in the Mexican Com pany, and is subject to the payment of the annual taxes.
Cananea is connected with the United States-Mexico border town of Naco, Arizona, by approximately 40 miles of railroad owned by the Southern Pacific Railroad of Mexico.
The reduction works of the Mexican company comprise crushing plant, concentrator, smelter, mechanical shops, warehouse, and accessory structures and facilities, and have a productive capacity of approximately 100,000,000 pounds of copper per annum, although the operations are and have been curtailed during recent years.
The Mexican Company's engineers estimate that ore reserves now developed are sufficient to maintain production at the rate of approximately 60,000,000 pounds of copper annually for about right years, but that such reserves are not a measure of the productive possibilities of the property. Exploration and development work is performed currently with ore extraction. The property has a long productive history and covers a large strongly mineralized area, much of which is unexplored. In addition to copper, a substantial quantity of molybdenite- and small amounts of silver and gold are now being produced.

(a) Action instituted in 1933 in the District Court of the Second Judicial District of Montana, County of Silver Bow, by Charles F. Juttner, Plaintiff, against Butte Water Company, Defendant, to recover $2,000,000 in damages alleged to have been caused by the turning off of water from tbe plaintiff's house and also by reason of alleged attempts to take plaintiff's fife.

holder, against registrant, Cornelius F. Kelley, Charles E. Mitchell, William D. Thornton, City Company of New York, Incorporated, Florence Guggenheim, as Executrix of the Last Will and Testament of Daniel Guggenheim, deceased, Ralph D. Cole, George H. Church, James Dickson, Robert E. Dwyer, Kenneth B. Frazer, David B. Hennessy, and Andrew J. Miller, Defendants. The action is a stockholder's derivative action asking an accounting by the individual defendants in con nection with an exchange made by registrant in 1929 of shares of its capital stock for shares of the capital stock of Chile Copper Company and Greene Cananea Copper Company on plaintiff's allegation of profits claimed to have been obtained by certain of the individual defendants and alleged to have amounted to approximately $4,250,000, and claim is also made to recover from the individual defendants damages alleged to have exceeded $40,000,000 and to have been caused reg istrant by the acts of the individual defendants. The action is now at issue, the individual defend ants having served their answers, denying the allegations of the complaint and liability on their part. Certain of the individual defendants have instituted an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against plaintiff to restrain the prosecution of the New York action on the ground that the final decree of said Federal Court dated June,30, 1934, dis missing a previous action by said plaintiff involving the same matters as the New York action, is res adjudicate as to such plaintiff with respect thereto, the State Court having previously denied a motion to dismiss the complaint on the same ground.
An action in New York Supreme Court, New York County, by Joseph Aronson and Emanuel Aronson, copartners under the firm name of Aronson & Co, (which holds of record 92 shares of stock of registrant), suing as stockholders, against the same defendants as in the Frankenstein action. The actions are of the same nature. The Aronson action is not yet at issue.
Special counsel consulted by the Directors, and who represent certain of the-defendant Direc tors in the suits, have advised that after an examination of the facts said actions, in their opinion, are without merit.
(d) Litigation in the Civil Court of Santiago, Chile, by one Munoz Gonzales against Santiago Mining Company. This litigation concerns title to about. 6% of the area included in the Africana mines, the total investment in such mines being included in the consolidated balance sheet at $3,441,233.29. Counsel advise that in their opinion this action is without merit
(e) In September, 1935, a proceeding was instituted by the Federal Trade Commission, being Docket No. 2565, entitled In the Matter of National Electrical Manufacturers Association, its officers, board of governors, and certain members, separately and as representatives of the members, and the following members of said Association: American Electrical Works, American Steel and Wire Co., Anaconda Wire and Cable Co., Bishop Wire and Cable Corporation, Boston Insulated Wire and Cable Co., Crescent Insulated Wire and Cable Co., General Cable Corporation, General Electric Company, Habirshaw Cable and Wire Corporation, National Electrical Products Corpora tion, The Okooite Company, Phelps-Dodge Copper Products Corporation, John A. Roebling's Sons Company; Simplex Wire and Cable Company, Triangle Conduit and Cable Company, and United States Robber-Products, Inc. The complaint alleges that the respondents have been and are engaged in a combination, in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, to restrain inter state commerce in power cable, copper wire for electrical transmission, and various kinds of elec trical apparatus and equipment, chiefly through the medium of said Association. The proceeding is not yet at issue. The Federal Trade Commission has set November 1, 1935 as the date for the first hearing. Counsel for Anaconda Wire and Cable Company advise that, in thdr opinion, said pro ceeding so far as that Company is concerned is not justified.
In addition to the above suits particularly described there are other pending suits involving damages, titles to mining claims, labor and compensation claims, and other suits of a similar char acter, all of which are ordinary and routine litigation incidental to the kind of business conducted by registrant and its subsidiaries, which under provisions of the Instruction Book for Form A-2 are not considered material. Registrant knows of no proceeding contemplated by governmental author ities against it or any of its subsidiaries or involving its or their properties except such as are ordinary and routine in the kind of business conducted by registrant and its Subsidiaries.

The Power Company agrees to furnish 75,000 electrical horsepower at the Great Falls plant and 35,000 electrical horsepower at the Ana conda plant. The registrant agrees to take all of the power which it uses in the reduction of zinc at Great Falls and Anaconda under this contract, but is not obligated to take or receive any specific amount of power, or to pay for any power except what is actually used.
The rate for power is on a sliding scale, based on the price received for zinc at Great Falls plus $7.00 per ton, and ranges from 0.153^ per kilowatt hour when zinc is less than four cents per pound, up to 0.382^ per kilowatt hour when the price of zinc is above six cents per pound.

The original contract of July 10, 1928, provides for the purchase and sale of 65,000 electrical horsepower, to be delivered at points designated by the registrant at or near Butte, Anaconda and Great Falls, for use by the registrant in the mining, reduction and treatment of ores, and the refin ing of metals derived therefrom, other than electrolytic zinc.
The contract is for the life of the mines, subject to modification in case of temporary suspen sion or curtailment of operations.
This contract also provides for the sale of 50,000 additional electrical horsepower on the same terms and conditions as provided for the first 65,000 electrical horsepower, if and as required by the registrant.
The registrant agrees to pay. fot such power at the rate of $30.00 per horsepower per annum for power used at Butte and Anaconda, and at the rate of $20.00 per horsepower for power used at Great
Under iljiMffjif Ifn amending agreement of July 23, 1935, effective May 1, 1935, and until May 1, 1940HBjjj$9trant is required to pay for such power as it shall actually use currently, ' provided thfctjPS~p.y for a minimum of 32,500 horsepower, instead of 65,000 horsepower,
but may use, if and as required, up to 65,000 electrical horsepower. During said five-year period said registrant has an option on additional power, not exceeding 12,500 additional electrical horse power.
For the six months ending June 30, 1935, the registrant was using approximately 50,000 horse power.

53
quantity and with such uniformity of delivery as shall be reasonably required by registrant, it being understood that registrant shall have the right and be free to use electricity for power or other purposes or use in connection with the operation of its plant*. In case the parties disagree as to whether registrant has been reasonable in its judgment as to any heat or fuel requirements for which gas is not taken under the contract, the matter is subject to decision by arbitrators.
The term of this contract is fifteen years, with provisos for extension thereof for a five-year period.
The registrant agrees to pay as a fixed charge for the first five years $14,583.33% monthly, and thereafter the sum of $12,500.00 monthly, and, in addition thereto, to pay I0j^ for every 1,000 cubic feet of natural gas delivered to it under the contract
(d) Contract dated February 27, 1931, between registrant and The Montana Power Company, providing that, whereas, the registrant and the Power Company each had entered into a contract with Louis B. O'Neill, of even date, for the purchase of gas from the Cut Bank field, each shall have the right to take one-half (J4) of the total gas available for delivery under said con tracts ; that neither shall take more than five billion cubic feet of gas annually without the consent of the other. If either party desires in excess of five billion cubic feet of gas annually and the field reserves available will permit the withdrawal of such excess without impairing the right of the other to its one-half of the reserves, it may be so taken.
If a controversy arises on this question it shall be settled by arbitration.
In the case of temporary insufficiency of supply of gas for the requirements of both parties each party shall reduce its industrial load in equal amounts until the power company's industrial load is cut off. Any further reductions shall be made by the. registrant for the benefit of the Power Company's domestic and commercial customers. In case of shortage, other than temporary shortage, each party is entitled to one-half of all gas produced from aU available reserves.

HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
45. Furnish the information required below as to the respective captions on the registrant's balance sheet, the balance sheet of the registrant and its subsidiaries consolidated, and each individual or group balance sheet required to be furnished for unconsolidated subsidiaries;
(a) If, since January 1, 1922, there have been any increases or decreases in Investments, in Property, Plant and Equipment, or in Intangible Assets, resulting from substantially revaluing such assets, state:
(i) In what year or years such revaluations were made.
(ii) The amount of such write-ups or write-downs, and the accounts affected, includ ing the contra entry or entries.
(iii) If in connection with such revaluations any adjustments were made in related reserve accounts, state the accounts and amounts with explanations.
% In 1923 registrant acquired 66,666% shares (having a par value of $25 per share) of the stock
of Andes Copper Mining Company (a then subsidiary) for a total cost of $319,004.94, an average of $479 per share. These shares had theretofore been included in the consolidated balance sheet as outstanding minority interests at the par value of the shares of Andes Copper Mining Company, i.e., $25 per share (or a total of $1,666,666.67), and after the acquisition thereof by registrant the same were carried in the consolidated accounts at the same amount, i.e., $1,666,666.67, the excess thereof, i.e., $1,347,66173 above the cost of said stock, being credited to consolidated surplus.
Reference is made to the notes to the consolidated balance sheet setting forth the basis at
which the mining properties of Andes Copper Mining Company are carried in such consolidated
balance sheet, such basis being the original par value of the stock of Andes Copper Mining Com
pany issued therefor, i.e., $25 per share, and not the cost to the registrant and its subsidiaries of
such shares of Andes Copper Mining Company owned by the registrant and its subsidiaries. This
basis was followed by the registrant in its consolidated balance sheets beginning with the year 1920
when, for the first time, the Andes Copper Mining Company was included in the consolidated bal
ance sheet as a subsidiary, such basis being as follows: In the consolidated balance sheer of regis
trant and its subsidiaries the interest in the properties of Andes Copper Mining Company, represented
by the shares of said company owned by registrant and its subsidiaries (Le., l,159,841s*%o00
shares), were included in the consolidated balance sheet at their par value, $25 per share, or a
total of ................................................................... ....................................................................... $28,996,031.07
the total investment of registrant and subsidiaries in said shares of Andes Copper
Mining Company at December 31, 1920 (excluding advances to said company ag gregating $11,16372172 at that date), was..........................................................................
8,445,462.29
Resulting in a credit to consolidated surplus of................................................................. $20,550,56878
In 1928, by reason of the conversion of the 7% Convertible Debentures of Andes Copper Mining Company, the interest of the registrant and its subsidiaries in the stock of Andes Copper Mining Company declined below the 7S% customarily required by the registrant for consolidation of accounts and therefore the accounts of Andes Copper Mining Company were not consolidated in the consolidated balance sheet of registrant at December 31, 1928. In 1929, through the exchange of outstanding shares of Andes Copper Mining Company for stock of registrant, the interest of
registrant and its subsidiaries in the stock of Andes Copper Mining Company increased above the 75% customarily required by the registrant for the consolidation of accounts, and the accounts of Andes Copper Mining Company were therefore consolidated in the consolidated balance sheet of 1929 and subsequent years in the same manner and on the same basis as prior to 1928. In order to avoid an arbitrary reduction in the consolidated surplus at December 31, 1928, when there had in fact been no change of the property (other than in ordinary course of business) represented by stock of Andes Copper Mining Company, or in the number of shares in said company held by registrant and its subsidiaries, the shares of Andes Copper Mining Company owned by the registrant and its subsidiaries were included in the consolidated balance sheet of registrant at December 31, 1928 on the same basis as the interest of registrant and its subsidiaries in the stock of Andes Copper Mining Company had been included in previous years' consolidated balance sheets, and entries were made on the books of registrant and subsidiaries crediting surplus with $21,909,53972, the difference between the cost to them of shares of Andes Copper Mining Company stock owned, and the par value of said shares, i.e., $25 per share, the charge being made to Investment Account. At December 31, 1928,1,762,635 shares of stock of Andes Copper Mining Company were owned by registrant and its subsidiaries. Of this amount 533,492 shares were ac quired for cash at $25 per share subsequent to December 31, 1920, leaving a total of 1729,143 shares; said 1729,143 shares represent the shares of Andes Copper Mining Company owned by registrant and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1920, and shares subsequently acquired at less than par value, including the 66,666% shares of Andes Copper Mining Company first above referred to.
(b) If, since January 1, 1922, there have been restatements of Capital Stock, state the amounts of such restatements, and the contra entries. If, since January 1, 1922, there has been an original issue of Capital Stock any part of the proceeds of which was cred ited to surplus, state such amount.
There has been no restatement of capital stock since January 1, 1922. Since January 1, 1922 the original issues of capital stock, part of the proceeds of which was credited to surplus, amounted to 3,109,598.54 shares of the par value of $50 per share. The part of the proceeds of such issues in excess of the par value of such shares which was credited to surplus was $20,816,158.49. The major part of the total proceeds received on such issues was used to discharge First Consolidated Mortgage Bonds of the registrant outstanding in 1929. In connection with the retirement of such bonds, the premium on redemption, discount, and expense of issuance, aggregating $11,907,4982)0, were charged off.
In 1934 Mountain City Copper Company issued 506,307 shares of the par value of 54 per share. Of the proceeds received, $480,991.65 was credited to surplus. See Surplus Account of Mountain City Copper Company on page 125 hereof.
(c) If, since January 1, 1922, any substantial amount or amounts of Bond Discount and Expense, on issues still outstanding, have been written off earlier than as required under any. periodical amortization plan^ give the following information:
(a) title at issue:
(b) date of each write-off:
(c) amount written off:
(d) to what account charged:
NONE.

The metallic content* of copper geos, concentrates, and cupriferous materials, asdezhsc and lead ores and concentrates, while, i treatmoNNfertdnction plants, up to the production at Mister copper, electro lytic copper, metalfiaqtbl^tad lead WHoe, are classified as metals in process;' Blister and electrolytic copper, metallic lia^TffiEjlMnfrin and ertber products and metals produced in cotmectioo therewith or
therefrom, indudid|BMMk it works at fabricating plants, are treated as finished.
,
Inasmuch as theagfmtWii at the reduction plants require a continuous inventory- in process, the metals in the process inventories are.carried at a calculated "normal cost," based on an saniwicd normal volume of production, which is below the equivalent of current market for metallic content of such inventories.
In accordance with the principle need in preparation of the accounts for the year 1933 and subse quently, finished metals and manufactured products on hand at June 30th, 1935^ (except silver and gold which are carried at market quotations or less), have been valued (a) a*.to that part of the.inven tory which was equal to the quantity on hand at December 31st, 1934 at the inventory price of Decem ber 31st, 1934 (which price was the same as that of December 31st, 1933, inventories having declined in quantity in the year 1934), and (b) as to that part of the inventory which exceeds in quantity inven tory on hand at December 31st, 1934 at production costs during the six months period ended June 30th, 1935. Inventory valuations determined in accordance with the foregoing method were below market prices for the various metals and products at June 30th, 1935. Certificates for refined copper, in cluded in inventory at $1,077,516,36, were pledged as of June 30th, 1935 with holders of notes payable;
Complete physical inventories of metals and manufactured products on hand were not taken at June 30th, 1935. Inventories are, however, subject to continuous tests-and checking, bods physical and in connection with financial and operating records, by employees of the registrant and subsidiaries.

Supplies on hand, including replacement parts as well as current supply items, are carried at cost. Owing to the curtailment of operations and distance from source of supply and markets, supplies on hand of certain metal producing subsidiaries, particularly those operating in Chile, were at June 30th, 1935 somewhat in excess of current requirements. Complete physical inventories of supplies on hand were not taken June 30th, 1935. Inventories are, however, subject to continuous tests and checking, both physical and in connection with financial and operating records, by employees of the registrant and subsidiaries.
Note F--In v e s t me n t s --Ba s is
Investments in securities of unconsolidated subsidiaries and other security investments are carried at cost or less, such cost being cash cost, or in the case of securities issued in exchange for property transferred by the registrant or a consolidated subsidiary, the cost of such property to the consolidated group after deducting depreciation to date of transfer, and do not indicate current values. Other security investments include shares of Inspiration Consolidated Copper Company carried at $10,914,107.51.
Note G--Pr o p er t y , Pl a n t a n d Eq u ip me n t --Ba s is o f Va l u a t io n
(a) Property, Plant and Equipment of registrant are carried at cash cost, or in the case of physical properties acquired for stock of registrant at par value of such stock.
(b) Property, Plant and Equipment of subsidiaries (the accounts of which are included in this Consolidated Balance Sheet) are carried at the difference between (1) the investment basis for the respective subsidiary as set forth below, and (2) all net assets (other than property, plain and equip ment) of such subsidiary at the time when its accounts were first included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet of the registrant and subsidiaries, to which is added the cost of subsequent acquisitions. Such investment basis is the cash cost to the consolidated group of the stock of the respective subsidiary owned by such group, where the same was acquired by the group for cash, or where the same was acquired by the consolidated group for stock of the registrant, the par value of the. stock' of the registrant, except as to properties of Andes Copper Mining Company and Santiago Mining Company acquired by said companies respectively for shares of their capital stock, which properties are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at the original par value of the shares of those companies issued therefor (t.e., $25 per share), amounting in the case of Andes Copper Mining Company to 1,000,000 shares and in the case of Santiago Mining Company to 70,566 shares. Of said stock of Andes Copper Mining Company issued for property 998,036 shares were acquired by registrant and subsidiaries at less than the original par value thereof and of said stock of Santiago Mining Company 65,431 shares were acquired (in 1930) by registrant at less than the original par value thereof. The 65,431 shares (minority interest) of Santiago Mining Company were carried in the consolidated financial state ments as outstanding minority interest at par from the date when Santiago Mining Company was first included in such statements. Upon the acquisition of such shares by the registrant in 1930 the difference of $1,519,565.66 between the par value thereof and the cost of such shares to registrant was transferred from minority interest to consolidated surplus. The total amount credited to consoli dated surplus on account of the difference between the par value of the above-mentioned shares of Andes Copper Mining Company and Santiago Mining Company and cost thereof to registrant and its subsidiaries was $23,429,105.38. See answer to item 45 of this registration statement with respect to said 998,036 shares of stock of Andes Copper Mining Company.
(c) It has been the practice of registrant, consistently applied to its own properties and those of subsidiaries the stocks of which have been acquired and the accounts of which are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, to carry Property, Plant and Equipment as described above. Pursuant to the requirements of the United States Treasury Department, valuations as of March 1, 1913 of mining properties then owned have been recorded on the books for the purpose of computing the amount allowable as a deduction for "depletion" in arriving at taxable income under the Federal income tax laws, but these values have not been included in the published accounts of the registrant nor in the financial statements submitted herewith.
The registrant has consistently followed the practice of not deducting any amount for depletion on account of metals mined in any of its published accpunts, and^no such deduction is included in

any of the financial statements submitted herewith. Reference is made to answer to item 7 of this registration statement for a description of the present condition of the properties and estimated ore
Depletion based on cost has in the case of timber, coal, clay and phosphate lands, been deducted from income in the financial statements submitted herewith and also from the cost basis shown in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(d) In the Consolidated Balance Sheets of the registrant and its subsidiaries heretofore published, the depreciation reserve, shown on the books of The American Brass Company and certain other sub sidiaries as of the dates the stocks of those companies were acquired by the registrant, was deducted in stating the plant and equipment account of those companies in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and was not included in depreciation reserve. The foregoing Consolidated Balance Sheet includes such accumulation in the depreciation reserve. This change does not affect the net amount at which such fixed assets are carried, nor does it affect consolidated surplus, or any other item other than the separate items of plant and equipment and depreciation reserve.
Certain transfers between the accounts "Mines and Mining Claims", "Plant and Equipment", and "Reserve for Depreciation" have been given effect to in this Consolidated Balance Sheet. They consist entirely of transfers between these three accounts and do not affect the net amount at which Property, Plant and Equipment are carried nor do they affect the consolidated surplus or any item other than fixed assets and depreciation reserve.
(e) The values of Property, Plant and Equipment are shown on the bases above set forth and do not indicate current values which could be established only by current appraisals.

the term of the bonds, and when bonds are purchased for sinking fund requirements the cost of such bonds for the purpose of calculating profit or Ion is increased by the amount of discount which would have applied over the entire remaining Gfe of such bonds.

The metallic contents of copper ores, concentrated, and cupriferous materials, and zinc and lead ores and concentrates, while in treatment at reduction plants up to the production of blister copper, electrolytic copper, metallic zinc and lead bullion, are classified as metals in process. Blister and electro lytic copper, metallic zinc, lead buHios, and other products and metals produced in connection therewith or therefrom, including stock in works at fabricating plants, are treated as finished.
Inasmuch as tbe operations at the reduction plants require a continuous inventory is process, the
metals in the process inventories are carried at a calculated "normal cost", based on an assumed normal
volume of production, which is beknr tha equivalent of current market for the nudallic content of such
inventories.

The general practice of inventory valuation followed in the three years and six months ended June
30, 1935; was as follows:
-
1. Valuation in Consoiiddttd Babmcs Short.
(a) As of December 31, 1931 and 1932 inventories of metals on hand (accepting, silver and gold
which were and are carried at. market quotations or less) were earned at market (allowance twing made
for metals sold under firm contract), winds market was less than coat
'
(b) As of December 31, 193% inventories qi metals were carried at cost, which was below market Such cost was calculated as follows i Inventories of duty free copper in the United' States of foreign producing compansta-were valued at their production cost; purchased metals were valued at purchase cost; and other inventory at average production cost for the year 1933, which coat was below market and below the avenge of 1932 cost of inventory.
(c) As of December 31, 1934, inventories of metals were carried at cost; which was below market. Such cost was calculated as follows: (1) As to that part of the inventory which was equal to the quantity on hand at December 31, 1933 at the inventory price of December 31, 1933, and (2) as to that part of the inventory which exceeded in quantity inventory on hand at December 31, 1933 at production cost during the year 1934. Inventories of duty free copper in the United States, of foreign producing companies were valued at their production cost Purchased metals were valued at purchase cost
(d) As of June 30, 1935, inventories of metals were carried (1) as to that-part of the inventory which was equal to the quantity on hand at December 31, 1934 at the inventory price of December 31, 1934 as described above and (2) as to that part of the inventory which exceeded in quantity the inven tory on hand at December 31, 1934 at the average production cost during the six months ended June 30, 1935. Inventory valuations determined in accordance with the foregoing method won below market for the various metals on June 30, 1935 (See Note D to Consolidated Balance Sheet).
2. Valuation for purports of Consolidattd Profit and Loss.
In ascertaining consolidated profit and loss during the period under review, cost was used, and not the market to which inventories had been adjusted on the balance sheet for December 31,1931 and 1932 as described under 1(a) above.

(a) In 1932, metals sold were charged out at cost, such cost being determined by the first-in firstout method as applied to inventories other than normal stocks. The difference between the aggregate cost o{ the normal stock and other inventories, and the amount at which such inventories were carried in the balance sheet for December 31, 1932, to wit, $9,914,440.23, was not charged to profit and loss but was charged to surplus.
(b) In 1933, the procedure used in 1932 was changed to a last-in first-out basis, that is the con solidated profit and loss account was stated on the basis of applying current cost of metal production to sales to the extent of current production, and sales in excess of current production were carried into the consolidated profit and loss account at the inventory cost. Such inventory cost was the same as the inventory cost used for balance sheet purposes described under 1 (b) above. The change from the first-in first-out method followed in 1932 to the basis described for 1933 was not material in affect ing the comparability of results between the two years. As a consequence of the increase in market prices at the end of 1933, the balance sheet valuation of inventories of metals at December 31, 1933 was increased from the market basis used at December 31, 1932 to cost basis (as set forth in paragraph (b) above under "Valuation in Consolidated Balance Sheet"), which was below the current market The profit of $3,715,031.32 attributable to the change from market to cost was credited to surplus in 1933, and not to the profit and loss account.
(c) In the year and six months ended June 30, 1935, the same procedure was followed as in 1933. No charge or credit was made to Surplus at the end of 1934 and on June 30, 1935, as a result of inventory adjustment, because cost having continued below current market, inventories for balance sheet purposes were carried at cost at such times.
Note D--El imin a t io n o f In t e r -Co mp a n t Pr o f it s
Inter-company profits, where these are material, have been eliminated in the Consolidated Profit and Loss Statement. The principal inter-company transactions are sales of copper and other metals to manufacturing subsidiaries. The inventories of manufacturing subsidiaries include, so far as is ascertainable, no inter-company profit
Any inter-company profits resulting from transactions in' connection with purchases and sales of
supplies and furnishing of services and in. connection with refining and smelting operations are not
material in amount and have not been eliminated.

Where sale* of the products of the registrant's subsidiaries (except Anaconda-American Brass, Ltd. operating is Canada) are made in foreign currencies it is the practice to sell an equivalent amount of the foreign currency involved for United States dollars. The profit and loss of Anaconda-American Brass, Ltd. at tie end of each period has been converted for the purposes of this profit and loss state ment into dollar* at rates not in excess of the rates current at the end of the respective period. In the year 1933 a surplus adjustment correcting the valuation of current assets in Canada and Mexico was made and is included in the surplus account--Schedule VII A--tor that year.
Note F--Se l l in g , Ge n e r a l a n d Ad min is t r a t iv e Ex p e n s e s
It has been the practice of the registrant to include in and not to segregate from other expense* included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and this information is not reason ably available to the registrant.
Note G--Paom o r Loss o n Bo n d s Re t ir e d
Beginning with 1933, profit or loss on bonds retired is included in Consolidated Profit and loss Statement; in 1932, same was carried to Surplus. The practice was changed in this regard in order to conform the financial statements with the basis required by United States income tax laws.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED PROFIT AND LOSS STATEMENT
Note A--Ba s is This statement covers the registrant and subsidiaries which are wholly owned (including The
American Brass Company for the years ended December 31st, 1932 and December 31st, 1933, although up to February 17th, 1933 registrant owned 99.967 per cent of the outstanding stock of The American Brass Company, the remaining SO shares being acquired by registrant on that date) and which owe no long term or funded debt to persons other than the registrant and which may be considered in practical effect, operating divisions of the registrant, excepting five subsidiaries, the operations of which are not an integral part of the operations of the consolidated group and the investment in which ($772,768.13) is not relatively significant, and whose earnings amounted to $65.14 for 1932, $13,026.54 for 1933, $18,072.80 for 1934 and $17,826.06 for the six months ended June 30th, 1935. (See note A to Consolidated Balance Sheet of registrant and 100%-owned subsidiary com panies.)
Net Income or Net Loss, as shown for the years 1932, 1933 and 1934 in the foregoing Consoli dated Profit and Loss Statement, is on the basis of published statements to stockholders of registrant for those years, and no attempt has been, made to allocate surplus adjustments (applicable to such years respectively) made in subsequent years, including provision for deferred payment under power contract in connection with curtailment of operations, to the Net Incoine or Net Loss of the respective year to which the same are applicable.
Note B--iNTEa-CoMPAHv Sa l e s
Inter-company sales so far as can be ascertained have been eliminated and the sales shown in die Consolidated Profit and Loss Statement include only sales to others than registrant and consolidated subsidiaries, included in this statement.
Note C--IirvENToay Ba s is
The general practice of inventory valuation followed in the three years and six months ended June 30, 1935, was as follows;
1. Valuation in Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(a) As of December 31, 1931 and 1932 inventories of metals on hand (excepting silver and gold which were and are carried at market quotations or less) were carried at market (allowance being made for metal# sold under firm contract), which market was less than cost.
' (b) As of jpecember 31, 1933, inventories of metals were carried at cost, which was below mar ket Such costal# calculated as follows: Purchased metals were valued at purchase cost; and other inventory at average production cost for the year 1933, which cost was below market and below the average of 1932 cost of inventory.
(c) As of December 31, 1934, inventories of metals were carried at cost, which was below mar ket. Such cost was calculated as follows: (1) As to that part of the inventory which was equal to the quantity on hand at December 31, 1933 at the inventory price of December 31, 1933, and (2) as to that part of the inventory which exceeded in quantity inventory on hand at December 31, 1933 at production cost during the year 1934.. Purchased metals were valued at purchase cost ,
(d) As of June 30, 1935, inventories of metals were carried (1) as to that pert of the inventory which was equal to the quantity on hand at December 31, 1934 at the inventory price of December 31, 1934 as described above and (2) as to that part of the inventory which exceeded in quantity the in ventory on hand at December 31, 1934 at the average production cost during the six months ended June 30, 1935. Inventory valuations determined in accordance with the foregoing method were below market for the various metals on June 30, 1935 (See Note D to Consolidated Balance Sheet).
2. Valuation for purposes of Consolidated Profit and Lost.
In ascertaining consolidated profit and lost during the period under review, cost was used, and not the market to which inventories bad been adjusted on the balance sheet for December 31, 1931 and 1932 as described under 1 (a) above.
No t e s t o Co n s o l id a t e d Pb o p it a n d Lo s s St a t e me n t (Contd.)
(a) In 1932, metals sold were charged out at cost, such cost being determined by the first-in first-out method as applied to inventories other than normal stocks. The difference between the aggre gate cost of the normal stock and other inventories, and the amount at which such inventories were carried in the balance sheet for December 31, 1932, to wit, $9,914,440.23, was not charged to profit and loss but was charged to surplus.
(b) In 1933, the procedure used in 1932 was changed to a last-in first-out basis, that is, the con solidated profit and loss account was stated on the basis of applying current cost of metal production to sales to the extent of current production, and sales in excess of current production were carried into the consolidated profit and loss account at the inventory cost. Such inventory cost was the same as the inventory cost used for balance sheet purposes described under 1 (b) above. The change from the first-in first-out method followed in 1932 to the basis described for 1933 was not material in affecting the comparability of results between the two years. As a consequence of the increase in market prices at the end of 1933, the balance sheet valuation of inventories of metals at December 31, 1933 was increased from the market basis used at December 31, 1932 to cost basis (as set forth in paragraph (b) above under "Valuation in Consolidated Balance Sheet"), which was below the current market. The profit of $3,715,031.32 attributable to the change from market to cost was credited to surplus in 1933, and not to the profit and loss account
(c) In the year and six months ended June 30, 1935, the same procedure was followed as in 1933. No charge or credit was made to Surplus at the end of 1934 and on June 30, 1935, as a result of inventory adjustment because cost having continued below current market inventories for balance sheet purposes were carried at cost at such times.
Not* D--El imin a t io n o f In t e e -Co mt a n y Paorrrs
Inter-company profits, where these are material, tiave been eliminated in the Consolidated Profit
and Loss Statement. The principal inter-company transactions are ales of copper and other metals
to manufacturing subsidiaries. The inventories of manufacturing subsidiaries include, so far as is
ascertainable, no inter-company profit.
Any inter-company profits resulting from transactions in connection with purchases and sales of
supplies and furnishing of services and in connection with refining and. TM>hing operations are not
material in amount and have not been eliminated.

(See note 1 to Consolidated Balance Sheet of registrant and lOO^fc-owned subsidiary companies.)

Beginning with 1933, profit or loss on bonds of subsidiary retired is inHtvW in Consolidated Profit and Loss statement; in 1932, same was carried to surplus. The practice was changed in this regard in order to conform the financial statements with the basis required by United States income tax law*.

In connection with our audits we examined or tested the accounting records of Anaconda Copper Mining Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, of Anaconda Wire and Cable Company and its sub sidiaries, of Walker Mining Company and of Mountain City Copper Company, together with other sup porting evidence and made a general review of the accounting methods and of the operating and income accounts for the calendar years 1932, 1933, 1934 and the six months ended June 30th, 1935, but we did not make a detailed audit of the transactions.
Investments, marketable securities, collateral, cash, notes receivable and payable, bonds and capital stock, have been verified by inspection, certificate or correspondence and found in order.
The practice of registrant and its subsidiaries with respect to computation of their consolidated net income or net loss without deduction for depletion of metal mines is, in our opinion, in accordance with accepted principles of accounting in industries engaged in the mining of copper, gold, lead, silver and zinc.
Previous to the year 1933 profits arising through the retirement of bonds of subsidiaries were credited to Surplus. In the year 1933 and subsequently these profits were credited to Income and are so shown on the Profit and Loss Statements. While the same general principles of inventory valuation have been followed consistently throughout the period, certain changes in procedure have been made, details of which are described under the appropriate accounts and schedules (included as part of this registration statement) which do not materially affect results of any particular period, the purpose of which was to simplify the company's accounting records and procedure.
In our opinion, based on our examination such Balance Sheets, Profit and Loss Statements and Surplus Accounts and other supporting schedules referred to on pages 57 to 60, inclusive, of such regis tration statement, the information as to total sales, gross earnings, net income and net losses given in answer to item 4 (a) with respect to the 32 subsidiaries and the 23 subsidiaries of subsidiaries which have been omitted from Chart I and Chart II, the information as to sales for delivery outside of the United States and Canada of copper, as compared with the gross sales of registrant and its subsidi aries whose accounts are consolidated with those of registrant as stated in the table set forth in answer to item 6, and the answers to items 9-A and 10-A of such registration statement, together with the notes attached thereto or appearing thereon, fairly present, in accordance with accepted principles of accounting in the industries in which the registrant and its subsidiaries operate, consistently applied by the registrant and its subsidiaries except as noted above. (1) the consolidated position of the registrant and its consolidated subsidiaries, the consolidated position of the registrant and its 100% owned subsidiaries which owe no long term or funded debt to persons other than the registrant, the position of the registrant, the consolidated position of Anaconda Wire and Cable Company and its sub sidiaries and the position of Mountain City Copper Company and Walker Mining Company, all as of June 30th, 1935 and (2) the separate or combined results, as the case may be, of their operations for the calendar years 1932, 1933, 1934 and the six months ended June 30th, 1935.
