There was a very close agreement between the amount of tin nroduced in 1935 (139,053 tons) and the quantity used in ■ manufacture (139,000 tons, approximately). ■ : A change in the policy of consumers is indicated by the fact that in 1935 there was an ■ increase of about 2500 tons in invisible stocks, while in 1934 there was a decrease of 12,300 tons.'' Total visible stocks of tin decreased during 1935 from 17,107 tons to 13,841 tons, but this decrease was largely offset by a rise to 16,052 tons in January of this year.
