Copra.

THERE has been little movement in the copra market. While it shows little inclination to rise to levels that will give growers some rea sonably substantial profit, it also holds firmly to prices that at least are well clear of the disastrous levels of 14 months ago. Copra, like a thousand other products, is hanging patiently to the tail of “world economic conditions, awaiting the long-drawn-out readjust ment of values. Best informed opinion is that the trend of prices is upward —but it is very gradual and desperately slow.
