FOR EFFICIENCY
IN MANAGEMENT
OF U. S. CITIES
Southern Commercial Con-
gress Also Approves Plan
for "Peace Bell"

Norfolk, Va, Dec. 14-The new
shipping law, development of drain
age work and intensified ton and di-
versification of farm organizations,
We're approved here today by the
Southern Commercial congress, at the
close Of its eighth annual conference
The congress also urged greater
efficiency in the management of
cities and more thorough and gen.
eral education of the masses. particu-
larly in technical training and in in
dustrlal and commercial activities
The congress adopted a report
which approved the naming of a COM
mlttee to raise fund by popular sub
scripticn, for the purchase of a great
Peace Bell" to he presented to the
nation IN celebration of the semi cen.
tennial of peace in this country, the
bell to be erected at Washington. It
also approved proposition for a
great scheme of International adver-
Using, proposed by Herbert S. Hor-
ton, editor Of Worlds Work.
Addresses before the congress to-
day dealt with Amerida' export trade
after the war. DR.. Koo, Chinese min
lister to the United States, expressed
the thought that this country should
develop the market of China as an
offset to the falling off of European
trade.
Predicting that the American manu-
facturer would be able to compete on
equal terms with European manufac-
turers in the foreign fields after the
war, Andrew J. Peters, assistant secre-
fary of the treasury spoke today be-
fore the congress. "Oua foreign trade
has reached heights hitherto undream-
ed Of" he said. "To hold it is the
paramount idea OF the hour
The cost of production in Europe by
reason of war taxes would be much
higher than in the past, he said Off
setting the ADVANTAGES in the nature
of commercial agreements, gigantic
combinations and governmental as.
sistanoe, which European manufao.
turers would have.
Mr.. Peters declared TIE American
manufacturer would be further en-.
oouraged to make a bold fight against
bis competitors by the attitude CT the
United States government which was
eager to cooperate with him in the
expansion of his foreign trade by pro
vlding the necessary legislative md
cbinery to enable him to compete on
equal terms.

OF SOUTHERN
UT-OVERLANDS.

That the problem OF development OF
agriculture in the South is probably
the most important problem to the
lumberman, because of the necessity
Of the development of his huge acre
age from which the trees have been
cut, was the declaration before the
Southern conference of cut-over land
owners at New Orleans this week by
r. S. kellogg of Chicago, secretary of
the National Lumber Manufacturers
association. The enormous agricul-
tural possibilities of the cut-over lands
of Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi and Georgia were pointed out
and the lumbermen were urged to aid
in developing this land agriculturally
Mr.. kellogg advocated the clearing and
Improvement of the land, and its sale
on long time payments. He said in
part:
"The South is to furnish a large pro-
portion Of the food supply of the ma
tion-this is what the careful stu
dents Of conditions freely predict
They tell US that with much longer
growing season than in the North and
abundant rainfall, proper system of
agriculture will produce two crops
per year from the land, where, at its
best, the North can produce only one
crop. They tell us also that this can
be done more cheaply because the
milder climate renders the expense
less for buildings and care Of stock
on the southern farms.
"The day of free land has passed in
the United States. Nowhere else can
land Of intrinsic worth be purchased
as cheaply as it can in the South to-
day. This is particularly true OF
much of the cut-over land which can
be readily put on the market follow
ing logging operations.
"The surface of the South has
scarcely been scratched. In 1900, but
"a per cent of the total area of five
leading Southern states - Alabama,
Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana and
Mississippi-was in improved farms
Between 1900 and 1910, nearly six mil
lion acres more was improved, max
ing 81 per cent at the latter date.
"Cut-over lands are not attractive
to prospective settlers. Stumps, down
timber, and brush look forbidding, and
the owner of large tracts of cut-over
lands who expects to sell them read
lily in such a condition is generally
doomed to disappointment. Cut-over
lands must be made attractive to the
farmer. This means pulling stumps,
cutting brush and cleaning up the
land, ready for cultivation. Roads
should be opened and the development
of communities made possible; then
the tracts should be offered on long
time and low interest payments. In
other words, cut-over lands must be
merchandised.

for the development of millions Of

IRREDUCIBLE LIMIT
 HAS BEEN REACHED
 FOR METALLIC LEASE
Engineering and Mining World Writes on Question as to Whether Silver Will Advance After the War
,c) Underwood & Underwood.

An eastern statistician has figured it out that the fundamental reason why silver must advance is because Europe is today on a paper basis, Germany has commanded the gOll from the peoples pockets 70 the banks vaults; Russia has done piac- tically the same: France has request ed it and England has relied uLJn pa triotism to accomplish its purpose.
 When the war broke out. this sane statistician continues. inc great gov ernment banks of Europe had rough ly $2.400. 100000 sold in their vaults. Since then. despite all efforts the stock has only been increased another billion. excluding some S50O.0OO0OO sent to the United States. The sig nificant monetary fact. however, is that the original S2.4OO. .OO0,O00 sup ported only s4.5OO. OOO.OO4 of paper. whereas the present $3.400.000.000 has been called upon to maintain S9,SOO.- OOO.O0O. In other words. the gold pro portion has dropped from 5 to 5i per cent. says the Mining World.
 The irreducible limit for the Eur opean metallic lease would seem to have been reached. At the same time, it is impossible to increase the supply of gold. The governments of Europe are. therefore, turning to silver more and more as they inevitably must. since gold will be unable to meet the demands of world business and since paper currency rapidly loses it's pur- chasing power. A strong metallic base is always necessary.
 But the production of silver is fall ing off in the United States. Mexico. and in fact. throuehout the world. The output of the United Staios last year was roughly only e7.590.00O ounces. as compared with 72.S00.o .opO ounces the year before. Mexico ar- counts for only 1S.OO0 900. as against 26 GOO .OO0 in 1914. In fact. the world uISduction declined last year at least 10 per cent to some 195.000.0O0 ounces as compared with an annual rrcduc- ton of 25O. .O0O. 900 back in 1911 and 1912
 Not only will there be an unpreced- entpd demand from Eurone. already under way. n'ltably in France. but the far east. which has always been big consumer Of the White metal. VIII be 2 bigger factor than ever before. China's standardization of coinase it is estimated will take l5000O O0O ounces of silver. ar alwOst twice as much as the United States and Mex ioS can turn ont in a year
 Silver is not war metal ir the sense Of shelter or conner. perhaps. The de~,and for it after the war Is over is likely to he Freater oven than at present. for with the adiustwent to nn~rnaI condit')rs tho parer "urren"v will denreciata astsr Weiohing tho factories nf doclirine rrodrction ana unprecedented demand. it worh seem that silver is likely tn sell at better than SO cents for a long time to come.

IF THE SHELTER
 ATTITUDE
 MADE Smelter Expert of Douglas Tells Why Company Plants are not Overly Anxious to Buy Custom Ores PROFIT IS LESS ON
 ORE OF THIS KIND More Money Can be Made by Companies Owning Their Own Mines and Shelters by Handling Own Ores
PROFIT IS LESS ON
 ORE OF THIS KIND

DOUGLAS, July 29-If you had mines, concentrators, etc, in all of which systematic savings could be effected, would you rather smelt your own ore in your smelter and take a clear profit on the transaction, or pay some miner working an independent property higher rate than your own ore cost you because you had been accustomed to- do so. at times in the past?
 That in brief is the way a we'll known shelter official here put the present ore situation in an interview a few days ago.
 We will say, for example" stated the official, that our cost of mining milling and smelting was around F cents per pound. Each wound sold on a 25-cent market would then net us 19 cents clear profit.
 "On the other hand the customs ore producer comes to us and insists that we buy his ore because We have done so in the past If we offered him the same sum we were paying for our own ores he would think we were robbers. So would the general public. But l can see no more req son why a shelter which can run continually on its own ores should buy customs ores at a higher price than it is paying for its own, than why l should go out in the street and buy burro did Lot want. We make more out of our own ores and had therefore rather handle them.
 High wages in the mines and smelters have reduced profits some what, making the costs run higher than on an ordinary market. but this is of course offset by the high metal price just at this juncture.
 ''I am fairly familiar with smelt- ing conditions in this state and I do not know of any company operating both mines and smelters which is not in the position l have mentioned. They are buying some customs ore. but not great deal, because they can handle their own mine output more cheaply and make more money out of it. That is the thing they are af- ter, just as well as the man who runs a store"
 As there has been much complaint recently among producers of customs ores because of shelter penalties. etc., the explanation is timely and apt.
