PHOENIX Building operations in Phoenix during the year 1915 fell to less than half of the record set in the twelve months preceding, accord ing to the report of City Building Superintendent Mann. The total num- her of permits for the year just closed was 29S, representing a total value of $316,911 as compared with 6l1 tn 1914, when the value of build Ings constructed was s767,521. The highest monthly total for 1915 was recorded in January, when 39 permits were issued. The 1914 record was 72 permits in one month Increased building, however, is predicted by the superintendent of buildings.

seems reasonably sure to be a scar City of copper supplies for number of years to come With such an out look consumers can hardly hope to see copper sell at low prices again in the present decade.
 Exports of copper, which were very heavy during the first three weeks of December, have since fallen off quite sharply and the prospect now is that the total outgo for the month will be around 6350O,OOO pounds, shipments for the first 29 days having totalled GIL 63 2G0 pounds. It is apparent that the volume of exports over any given period now depends more directly up- on whether or not ships are available than or any other factor. The for eign buying demand has been very heavy for two or three months past and it is not improbable that all pre- yicus export records will be broken in the near future.

WALKERS COPPER LETTER

Practically runaway market has developed in copper. Lake is, 22 1-2 to 23 cents and eIectrolytic is 22 1-2 to 22 3-4 cents pound It is not impossible that these quotations may be considerably exceeded by the time this letter comes from the press. The selling agents of produc- CTS are being swamped with orders. Consumers are bidding against one another for the small amount of cop per that remains, available for Janu- ary and February delivery. Such . condition, if continued, will advance the price very rapidly. How high copper may sell is anybody's guess now.
 Producing interests are not with holding copper from sale and marking up prices. They are doing everything they can to supply the demand. The output of every mine, mill and shelter is now practically at maximum; but wherever # is possible production will he further increased. Each mining company, it must be understood, has quantity of raw material which it de s;res to manufacture and sell as rapid Iy as is consistent with good busi- ness practice. and arrangements gen. e~aIly recognize the advantage of pro- d,1cing the largest quantity of copper possible during periods when the de pand is excessive as it is now.
 It seems altogether impossible, how ever, that the producing mines of the world will be able to supply the enor- nous amount of copper required for the manufacture of munitions while the European war continues, eXcep. at price high enough to force ma terial curtailment of the use Of the metal for industrial purposes. This may mean 25 or 30 cents a pound The industrial consumption of cop per has been relatively light for two years past; but quite recently it has shown a material increase, the de mand from which wire mills having been an important factor in bringing about the recent price advance ot three or four cents a pound.
 If the use of copper for industria purposes is curtailed heavily during the coming year or two it will tend to create a vacuum which later or must be filled.

of the Saturday Evening Post. Hal lett. who recently worked at the Old Dominion mine here in order to gath CT focal color for a series of articles on mining, calls the anti-blacklist law of Arizona a dangerous measure, which prevents the employment of careful employees and leads to the hiring of irresponsible men, by req sor of the fact that the character and references of the prospective em- pioyee cannot be inquired into.
 "The company's one resource is to try man for one shift" says Hallett. If he blows up handful of his broth CT workmen, he thus gives proof that he IS incompetent.
