COMPANY MAKES SLIGHT
 WAGE CUT
UNITED VERDE IS LEN TENT IN SLICING THE SCHEDULE; 25 CENTS A DAY CUT OFF
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

In line with the general trend of the copper industry as affected by the European War, the United Yer de, the richest copper company in the world, has announced a slight decrease in wages. As direct re- suit of the great conflict which sent copper to the minimum price, a third of the working force of the mine and shelter was laid of sev- eral weeks ago. The cut in wages was evaded by the company's off cials until the present, when such move was deemed expedient.
 Practically all of the other cop per companies in the state, which failed to shut down entirely, announ- ced a ten per cent cut in wages as far back as August. This cut af- fected men in all departments The United Verde at that time held pat to its scale of wages and for short time kept its full force of men.
 The company, however, is lenient in its cut of wages, announcing that it has decided to make a general cut of twenty-five cents per sniff, which will bring the miners wages back to the old scale of S3.50 per day. This was the prevailing scale in practically all of the large min ing camps of the west wherever copper was below fifteen cents per pound, and which will bring the Je- rome scale and classification to prac- tically the same rate of wages as were in effect before the advance made during the summer of 1912. on account of copper then being over fifteen cents per pound
 Jerome is conceded fortunate. how ever, in the fact that the United Verde Copper company doesn't con- template any further reduction in the number of men employed at pres ent. A full construction gang will be continued at work at Clarkdale so as to bring the smelter construc- ton to completion without delay.
