KENNECOTT COSTS
 OF PRODUCTION
 INSURE DIVIDENDS

BOSTON. Jan. 4.-When President Birch told the stockholders of the Ken necott Copper Corporation 1t was de- s.rable they own the railroad from their property to tidewater, he con- fessed, perhaps unconsciously, to a copper production cost never before dreamed of.
 The cost of transportation he said was 2A cents a pound. AS the aver age cost of Kennecott copper, includ- ing transportation and all other ex- penses, is 41s cents a pound and was for October 4.22 cents pound, the phenomenon appears that Kennecott copper is being produced for less than cents a pound, and has over a long period been produced at an average cost of 2A cents a pound-aside from the cost of transportation.
 It is little wonder. therefore, that when opportunity offered the company purchased the Copper River & North western Railroad for $10,00O.0OO. pay able in Kennecott stock at 50. This railway. which cost S22,OOO,OOO to con- struct, was turned over with $600,00O cash in It's treasury, gross earnings above S2OO.OOO per month and the operating profit showing S150,OoO per month.
 This operating profit and cash now goes into the Kennecott treasury. With the railroad also went 1S,OoO shares of the Alaska Steamship Com pany, which has a total capital of SO,- 900 shares, or sS,OOO,OOO. The steam ship company is earning more than ! 12 per cent and within the past year paid n per cent.
 The reason the mining company was able to purchase on such favor able terms is because both were Nor gan propositions and the Morgan peo- pie have a habit of sacrificing their personal interests to their trusts or

 When the Kennecott showed up It's biz Jumbo Bonanza and the stock had crossed $50 per share, the problem was with Morgan people as to how to insure investment value and the per manency of the dividends. The init iatlve, therefore, was from this source for the Kennecott company to pur- chase the 100000 shares of Utah Co. in the treasury of the Guggenheim Ex- ploration Co.,, about to be dissolved. and also to buy the Braden Copper property in South America, now cn- ing Into line as one of the worlds largest and lowest cost copper pro- ducers.
 The Kennecott struck bonanza ore that made It's Jumbo mine a world wonder" but 1t was not upon this that more than $2OOOO,OOO was put up for Kennecott's development by Morgan and his associates. That .n- vestment was made upon the other copper producing properties of the Kennecott, which have now been ov- ershadowed by the great Jumbo bon anza copper ore running above 70 per cent. But the extent of such ore in this property has yet to be dem- onstrated.

 Judge Taft advised attorneys to ar range settlements and compromises and save clients the nerve-rack.ng experience of trials.
 "When a man comes to you in Q rage and yells: That man has slan- dered me: will have the law on him. let him sit down and explain his case and then # you doubt his sincerity ask him for S25 and costs and $lOO for retainer and most likely ven- geance oozes out of his finger tips before he endeovors to write out a check"

TAFT DESCRIBES PITFALLS OF THE
 LAW PROFESSION

"lt is certain advertising pays. If not, it would not bo used in building up business" said Former President William Howard Taft in a lecture on Legal Ethics before the Cincinnati Law school January C.
 "In business. advertising increases the sale of goods he continued. and 1t is in the interest of the public to trade to thrive. But 1t is not in the interest of the public good to Increase the number of legal controversies. How would 1t be it a lawyer advertis. ed to secure divorces?
 How. then, is a man to ga,n practical He should get in an office with low pay. There are many things he has to learn. of course, only once. but he has to learn them. He may do menial work. He will have to use his legs. If he cannot make satisfac- tory arrangements to enter an office where there Is enough business to give him employment, he should open an office himself
 Period Before Clients Come
 'q am not unmindful of the period of two years he will sit in his office before clients begin to come. They are valuable years.
 "Iow long will 1t be before prac- tice comes? No one can tell. It is question of endurance. Men who endure prevail.
 "One of the proofs that the tradt tion not to advertise should be upheld is the class of men who do advertise The ambulance chaser, the agents and touts all are condemned. Solicit ing reporters to write up features oi a case In a sensational way is un professional.
 Trying cases in the newspapers i' bad thing. It always does injustc' to one side or the other, not inten tionally. 1T there is Q disposition or the part of a city editor to color ar article he can sometimes secure th' ready cooperation of @ lawyer.
 No matter what the opinion O the attorney representing defendan in 9 criminal cause is as to his gull he is to see that his client has a fai trial. even if he confesses his guilt He must see to 1t that the conviction is brought about in @ lawful manner It is unprofessional for the attorney however. to testify instead of argue He in no case should express an oT inion

Famous Engllsh Case Cited

ease where Mir. Phillips. noted bar rister. in the midst of trial was told by his client. a valet accused of the murder of his master, that he had committed the crime. The at torney continued in the case. after consulting another iurlst, merely ar- gulng that there were links missing in the evidence to show the defend ant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Judge Taft said 1t was the consensus of opinion of the barristers that he d'd right.
 "One of the most vicious practices is to lobby bills through legisla- tive body" continued the former President. This involves. often, the buttonholing of n.t mbers and hanging around the legislative halls. Bribery and unlawful means often creep .n
 There is @ difference in appearing before a legislative committee. The committee should be told that you are paid and who your client is It is deceit to conceal your representative capacity. if such exists"
 In closing Judge Taft spoke of the selection of clients and the relation between attorney and client
 Corporation Lawyers Discussed
 Corporations. he stated, are usual ly good clients. There is not the sl lghtest reason. he said, why an at sorney should not accept employment from corporation. There is a dan ger. however, he maintained, that Il an attorney is employed exclusively by corporation, becomes It's officer as much as It's president that he will take the corporate slant of the class questions.
 'T am not critc,sing lawyers of cor poratious." said Judge Taft. Many would make good judges and would uphold the rights of the poor and tho rich. But there is @ tendency to be come a corporate instrument.
 Tt is most ethical to accept retain CTS from corporations on cases in an' out of court. It is a personal sacri flee. sometimes. for an attorney no to arrange to give his exclusive prac tice to a corporation. This practice of attorneys becoming corporation of sicers deprives the community of thei service In h'gh public office. Ther' is strong prejudice that is agains man connected with corporations.
