"Most of those who use it are members of mining companies or are invloved with mining economics.” Mikesell’s book gives a comprehensive overview of the world copper industry. He dis cusses how copper prices are determined, how much compe tition exists, substitution and its effects on prices, and long-run supply and demand. He also considers price stabilization, recycling and enviromental problems. Concern over the copper supply has resulted from expro priation of mines, enviromental regulations for smelters and the last decade's wildly fluctuating prices. Mikesell concludes from his analysis of the copper industry that: •A copper cartel similar to OPEC will be unprofitable because of elasticities of demand. •The outlook for international prices does not appear encour aging. It is likley copper prices will rise sharply in the mid-1980’s because of increased demand and investment in mines. Mikesell’s interest in cooper arose out of research in foreign mineral investments which dates from his association with the Presidents’s Materials Policy Commsion in 1951-52. Mikesell was recently ap pointed a member of the Na tioal Materials Advisory Board, which serves under the National Academy of Sciences and the National Research Council. NMAB’s purpose is to identify critical issues concerning minerals that need further research. Mikesell will attend the board’s biannual meeting in Washington for the first time this June. briefs SPEAKERS Joseph Takahashl will speak on "Neural and endocrine regulation of avian circadian systems" today at 1 p.m. in Room 317 Science III as part a final Ph D oral Lynn Jeffress, doctoral candidate In Romance Languages, will defend her dissertation "The Novels of Michel Tour nier" today at 4 p m in Room 221 Friendly Hall John Burkhardt, a member of Physicians for Social Responsibility, will speak on "Nuclear Proliferation: The Effectiveness of Civil Disobedience as a Means of Resistan ce" today at 3:30 p m in Room 204 Condon Hall e will describe the hypothetical deton ation of a nuclear bomb over the city Eugene and the destruction of lives and property that would result.
