HIGH WIND CAUSES
LOSS IN T0N0PAH
WORST WIND IN CAMPS HIS
TORY DAMAGES BELMONT
MILL

On Saturday Tonopah was VISITED
by one of the heaviest windstorms
in it's history. Instruments at the
local weather bureau showed that
the velocity of the wind in the after
noon was from AZ to 60 miles an
hour.
About 500 feet of the trestle at
the Belmont mill was blown down,
causing a damage estimated as high
as $1,000. The trestle was covered
with sheet iron and this was blown
a considerable distance away.
A miniature tornado swept down
Erie-Main street at 5 o'clock and
tore away part of the front of the
building occupied by the Drossel

American industry will be first to
the colors if war is declared. Offers
of cooperation are coming in to the
Naval Consulting Board from in
dustrial leaders all over the country.
While the mobilization of troops has
been discussed generally in the press
and in Congress, the organization of
Americas industries for war service
has proceeded with little public
notice. Yet, those who are in posi-
ton to know assert that, if war were
to be declared tomorrow, the wheels
of a thousand factories would begin
to turn for Uncle Sam.
Munitions of war" means more
than shells and gunpowder and tor
pedoes. Automobiles, trucks, aero
planes, dirigibles, railroad steel and a
hundred other things would be need
ed at once and needed badly. The
organization of industry took sys-
tematic form when the Naval Con-
sulting Board was appointed, with
Thomas A. Edison as its chairman
and including the famous wizard,
Hudson Maxim, and other Americans
of noted achievement. Howard f.
Coffin was made chairman of the in
dustrial preparedness committee and
he has been at work for months on

preparations, according to experts.
Those interested. in national defense
have of late been paying much atten-
ton to the production of aluminium,
or Ignite, as the finest group of
aluminium alloys is called. 1t is of
aluminium that the German "Zepp"
is made. On account of its lightness,
the metal is almost a necessity in
aeroplane motors. 1t is also used in
making propellers for the planes. 1t
has come into general use in auto
mobile motors, engineers say, often
causing a saving of $50 pounds in the
weight of a ear.
GAS we see it, aluminium, or Ignite,
is of almost vital Importance par
ticularly in trucks and heavy duty
vehicles used in war times" said Mr..
Allyne, in offering his plants. "Over
Forty different motor car parts r

to the airplane situation we feel that
aluminium is one of the factors which
viii, make for the success or failure
of the modern war machine. The

and, in our opinion, alum mum planes.

many years for all aircraft made in

and of the country's industrial re-
sources.
"All this secrecy in preparing for
national defense is only bunkum,"
said Mr.. Coffin. on his arrival in
Washington, where he will make
headquarters for the direction of the
work of the committee. "You can't
keep the foreign powers from learn
ing our situation in detail. We are a
cosmopolitan people and other coun-
tries are bound to learn what we are
doing. The thing to do is to organize

nothing to fear"
An example of the way industrial
leaders are coming to the front with
p%roffers of assistance to the Nation
was the offer, this week, of f. f.

his five big plants at the disposal of

purposes. These are strategically

past week, the raise has shown a 2
foot width of medium grade ore,
which it holds consistently as the
raise proceeds.
There was also some develop
ment work performed on the in
termediate level lying between the
1000 and the 11OO-foot depths, con-
sisting of the projection of a drift
towards the west from raise 70 on
the north branch of the Rhyolite
vein. A very encouraging showing,
namely, a 1-foot face of good grade
ore, is now being followed by the
drift.
On the 11O0-foot level, develop
ment work was extended along the
north branch of the Rhyolite vein,
under very favorable conditions.
The face of west drift 1143, which
is being extended from north cross
cut 1924, is advancing against a
4 ~ foot face of good grade ore,
with every promise that these sub
stantial conditions will be main
tanned as work progresses along
the vein. A continuation of work
is raise 80, going up from 114S
west drift on the Rescue vein, is
noted, according to the report, with
somewhat of an improvement in the
matter of values as compared with
the preceding weeks showing. The
width of 3 feet has been held stead
lily with the advancement of the
work, and the grade of ore has i'm
proved until it is o classed as
medium grade. Another piece OF
work, which is intended for venti-
lating purposes mainly, was started
during the week, this being raise
82 from southeast .crosscut 1850
This new raise is being driven for
the purpose of affording much
needed air circulation.
On the 1400-foot level, there has
been no change of any nature
shown in raise 10, which is going
up from north c%rosscut 2 in pros
pecting for the downward extension
of the shaft vein, the entire weeks
progress having been made in Miz
pah trachyte.

FAIRVIEW NINE MAKES
SPLENDID SHOWING

Confidence that the same rich ore
shoots which were encountered in
the Seven Troughs Coalition mine at
Seven Troughs would be part OF the
history of the Fairview mine of the
Seven Troughs Mining company at
Vernon, was expressed this week by
the company's office here.
At this time the main ore shoot
on the 7O0-foot level of the old Fair
view is opened up for a distance of
more than 100 feet. from which
large quantities of good milling ore
and shipping ore are being taken.
High-grade streaks, with all indi-
cation that the ore will increase as
depth Is attained. are reported from
