What reading level is The Lead Trust book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Very few understand them. The great mass do not know anything about them whatever. Figure out the pounds, shillings, and pence, the London quotation for a long ton of 2, 240 pounds, and it makes the price of lead in London $3. 60 per 100 pounds as against $4. 70 in New York, $i. 10 more in New York than London, or a difference of $22 per ton of 2, 000 pounds.
Yet some is exported, and must go at \h. Q price in London. Please note, some is imported, also. This is brought here, and re- exported w...ithout payment of any duty.
The kernel of it all is that about twenty men are managing the matter of price of all the lead constimed in the United States, and have been doing so for some time with the aid of the government.
Not a pound is sold without the concurrence of these men, and it is held as firmly and nicely as could be. It is managed with con- summate skill.
Most likely many will say, at first thought, "It is nothing to me if there is a duty on lead. " Such people do not know how this material enters into the cost of so many things.
