Senator Pitman on the Demand for Silver
Senator Pittman of Nevada explained the causes of the silver price decline in a Senate session. He noted US mint purchases at $1 per ounce under the 1918 act and described foreign silver flows, China's waning demand, and European silver supplies as key factors. The senator urged producers to tender American bullion with proper certificates to obtain $1 per ounce.
