Copper price ceilings and Chilean copper sales shift
Price ceilings based on copper price ceilings based on copper breaking the price line would be a government purchase program with the government absorbing the higher import price in making re sales to American users. William Y. Elliott, ODM's materials chief, said officials generally believe foreign copper prices will jump somewhat but will not stay up too long. In Santiago, Chile, President Gabriel Gonzales Videla told the Chilean congress the copper impasse with the U. S. has been broken and the formula would permit North American private firms to buy Chilean copper at the world market price and not be bound by ceiling prices.
