This reduction except that charged against the Greene-C Cananea is the result of strikes. It is found that 5I. a000O0 pounds of the monthly reduction occurs in Arizona and that al1nost equals the rate of production ill 1916, wher Ari zona output was 694 ,0OOO 900 pounds
 Since these figures were published some changes have taAen place but whether for the better or the worse we do not >now. A settle ment has been effected at the Tooele, Utah. shelter; production is increasing in the War ren (Bisbee) district, but strikes affect many small mines not included in the Journals list The great properties at Jerome are again aced and the l. w. w. threatening to close and keep closed every copper mine in the west until the demands upon all have been granted.
 It is impossible for the mine owners to gotiate with the l. w. w. leaders. Not only are some of the demands outrageously unreason- able but the character of the organization rend- it impossible for the mine owners to fer with I. w. w. representatives regarding any demands reasonable or unreasonable
 No progress is being made toward settle place except where there is strong public timent against the l. w. w. as at Bisbee and there is not there settlement but a defeat of the strike. The sooner 1t Is recognized by every community and by the government that there is an impossible gulf between the employers and the i. w W. the sooner will there be sumption of copper production.

RED CROSS TO RUSSIA.

As initial step in carrying out its pur- pose ito do something immediately to hearten afflicted Russia, Henry P. Dawson. chair man of the Red Cross war council. announces the dispatch to Russia of a special Red Cross commission. The commission carries with 1t a quantity of medical supplies and surgical in struments with which to meet most urgent needs These are to be distributed to hospitals, institutions and Red Cross organizations in Russia. The commission is composed of twelve men, including eminent experts in problems of medicine, public health and social service. The primary purpose of the commission will be not alone to render such immediate aid it may, but to ascertain along the broadest possible lines in what manner the American Red Cross can extend most effective relief to the wounded soldiers and the needy and suffering civilian population of Russia

A STRIKE LACKING IN PUBLIC SYMPATHY.

It is plainly apparent to the disinterested onlooker that the present strike in the Clifton Morenci District is lacking in public sympathy and support That the Central Labor body of the district acted hastily ill authorizing strike IS the general cOncenSuS of opinion. Th1s OpInlon IS strengthened owing to the fact that the G11ev- ance Committee refused to acede to the request of Federal Mediator Meyers that break be postponed until his arrival. Furthermore, 1t IS common knowledge that the rank and file of the employees were unacquainted with the con- tents of the written reply made to the Grievance Committee oL the night of June 3Oth, and last but not least strong sentiment prevails that at this critical period in national affairs every means should have been exhausted for satis factory adjustment of real or imaginary grlev ances before a resort to strike methods should have been adopted The present strike showed an utter disregard of patriotic responsibility and an unreasonable decision to hurry out on strike with its attending disaster both local and national
 In our opinion majority of the employees of the district, both foreign and American, feel that mistake was made in the present in- stance; that further negotiations prior to the strike order would have led to a satisfactory adjustment and mutual understandings. If we are correct in opinion, then the right thing to do, the manly thing to do, is to hasten cor rection of that mistake The situation is en- tirely in the hands of the former employees of the companies. Refusing intervention by a rep resentative of the Department of Labor at Washington before the strike is called it is evi- dent that the Department feels that the oppor- tunity for its representative to attempt conciia tion has passed and we seriously doubt if such representative will appear in this district dur ing the present shut down. It is plainly ap parent then, that if we are to have an early re- ; sumption of operations ill the district, the em ployees and managers must get together across the conference table on their own initiative. The action of the stationary engineers this week was d move in the right direction

BONE DRY.

Looks very much as though the bone-dry idea will be enacted into law, if not this session of congress or this year, then next year. Here with, quoted from Senator Borah s speech in the senate yesterday, few words which speak volumes:
 Why compromise, dicker falter and bar ter with that which spreads want and disease in time of peace and disaster in time of war? will support the house amendment because it conserves food and, important, our citizenship
