Decline of Silver
Output Continues'
World production of silver j
continues on a level well be-!
low that established last year, j
According to figures released !

als, as output of by-product
silver has been far greater
than that produced by mines
in the precious-metals group.
Production in the United j
States during November total-i
ed 2,012,000 ounces, against;
2.181.000 ounces in October,
and 3,738,000 ounces in No
vember, 1930. The monthly
average production in the
United States for the first elev
en months of 1931 was 2,646,
000 ounces, against a monthly
average of 4,186,000 ounces
for the whole of 1930. United
States production for the Jan
uary-November period totaled
29.110.000 ounces, against
