QUIET
|N('L|F TON
DISTRICT

CLIFTON, Ariz., July 2.-The strike
situation in the Clifton Morenci-
Metcalf district was reported to be
quiet tonight and no trouble is an
ticipated by Sheriff Slaughter. who
has sworn in eighty deputies at Mo-
renci to guard the Detroit Copper
company's properties. The sheriffs
announcement today that he would
not ask for troops as long as peace
and order maintained has had d
good effect upon the situation.
Practically every miner and mill
man in this district is now out on
strike, making a total of more than
5000 men, exclusive of the company
officials of the three big copper com
panies. There was not an ounce of
copper mined today, as far as could
be learned tonight, and no effort has
yet been made to employ strike
breakers. The strikers are asking for
working conditions The operators
claim the men have been curtailing
production of copper.
This afternoon Normal Carmichael,
general manager of the Arizona Cop
per company, Ltd. issued the follow
ing statement to the Associated Press
regarding the strike situation in the
Clifton Morenci- Metcaif district:
THE present strike, involving the
complete closing down of all copper
mines, concentrators and smelters in
the Clifton -Morenci- -Metcalf district,
is, in my opinion, part of nation
wide conspiracy to embarrass the
government of the United States and
to have the effect of aiding its enc
mics.
1T seems to me that one must be
indeed blind if they cannot read the
evidence accumulating on every side
and pointing to the above conclu-
sion. 1t does not appear to matter
how high the wages paid may be or
how good the conditions of living,
some pretext for calling a strike at
+ the present time is sure to be found.
THE fact that a very substantial
increase in wages offered employees
in this district was not even made
known to the employees generally be-
fore their leaders called the strikC,
and that they had no means of de-
Gliding by strike vote or otherwise
whether they were willing to accept
the increase offered or not before
striking. affords in my opinion, am
pie justification for the belief that
! the men responsible for calling these
strikes are imbued with motives other
than the best interests of the work
men they represent, however insistent
/, they may be that their motives are
! sincere.
1T is a fact which can be easily
/ verified by any impartial investiga-
! tor that, since the entrance of this
country into the war with Germany
| the attitude of labor in the mines In
! this district towards those in ad-
ministrative positions has become al
most intolerable. INSTRUMENTATION is
! rife and discipline and efficiency
have been reduced to minimum.

firm position is taken by the gov

RUSSIANS CONTINUE
DRIVE AND TAKE
MANY PRISONERS

Prisoners exceeding 10000 and the
capture of the village of Koniuchy and
strongly fortified positions southwest
of Brzezany are the first fruits of the
new offensive movement of the Rus
sian forces in eastern Galicia North
of Koniuchy the Russians have at
tackled and fresh battles are in pro-
gresS.
The Russian artillery, long inactive
from lack of shells, played an import
ant part in the defeat of the Austro-
Germans at Koniuchy. For two days a
rain of iron was thrown into the Ger
man positions and Berlin says officially
that they were turned into crater
field. The Russians not only carried
three lines of German trenches and
Koniuchy which was strongly fortified.
but also advanced TO the Koniuchy
stream south of the village. which is
on the Zlota Lipa river.
Around BrzeZany the fighting was
most bitter and Berlin claims that six
teen Russian divisions were thrown
forward. The Russians carried the for
titled Teuton positions at several
points in the face of a desperate re-
sistance by Austrian, German and
Turkish troops.
Minister of War Kerensky personally
leu tile fluSSidH revolutionary army IN
its forward movements and in a mes
sage to Premier Lvoff says that the
offensive proved to Russia and the en-
tire world its fidelity to the revolution
and its love for liberty and country"
The premier has authorized Minister
kerensky to give the regiments which
participated in the fighting of July
red revolutionar-- flags and the name
regiments July first
On the western front there has been
little marked activity. Both the Brit
ish and Germans have carried out raids
in the area around Lens and north
ward. On the Aisne front between Ger
ny and ALLIES, the French have re-
gained line of trenches from the
Germans after spirited fighting
In ehe Trentino south of Riva the
Austrians have attacked Italian posi-
tions between Lake Garda and the Led
70 valley. Rome reports that all the
Austrian efforts were checked with
loss.
President Wilson has promulgated
the regulations to govern exemptions
from service in the new national army
of the United States. This marks an
other step in the preparation for the
mobilization of the new armies and
permit the local and appeal exemption
boards to organize for their important
work
The Greek destroyer Doxa, manned
by French crew. has been destroyed
in the Mediterranean sea by an ex-
plosion. Twenty nine members of the
! crew, including all the officers, were
lost.

reads as follows:
Western (Russian) front. In the di-

PROHIBITION MAY
LIMIT DEBATE ON
FOOD CONTROL BILL
[RepubIican A. P. Leased Wlre]

lRepublican A. P. Leased Wire1
WASHINGTON, July 2-Controversy
in the senate over the food control and
its prohibition feature reached such
an acute stage today that formal steps
were taken by administration leaders
to limit debate and force a final vote
this week by invoking, for the first
time. the senate's new cloture rule.
Within half an hour many more than
the necessary 16 senator's signatures
to a cloture motion were secured. Sen
ator Chamberlain. in charge of the
bill, announced to the senate later that
he would offer the motion tomorrow
and ask for a vote upon it Thursday.
It's adoption would require a two
thirds vote and thereafter would limit
each senator's time upon the bill and
all amendments to one hour.
Many senators say that until the
prohibition issue is settled the neces-
sary two-thirds vote for cloture can
not be secured. Others point out, how
ever, that the vote on shutting off de-
bate at least will show up" on record
those not in favor of expediting the
bill as desired by the president.
The movement for use of the cloture
rule came after the senate had adopted
the section by a vote of AZ to Is, ex-
tending government control in addition
TO food and fuels, to iron and steel,
copper, cotton, wool, hides and skins,

A skirmish on prohibition occurred
just before the senate recessed tonight
to meet an hour earlier than usual
tomorrow. The ''wets" and "drys'
clashed when Senator Penrose, oppos-
ing any attempt at cloture, suggested
that prohibitions friends had been de-
laying action. Senator Jones of Wash
ington vehemently denied the charge
and asserted that the delay has been
caused by prohibitions opponents

At GLOBE SCOFF
At ARM Of LAW

Developments in the copper mining
strike situation as revealed by tele-
grams received by Governor Campbell
yesterday were an increase of the SER
iousness of the outlook at Globe and
Clifton and a continued improvement
in the Warren district where it appears
that the |. w. w. have been beaten and
hence the leaders and many of the ag
itators have gone to the newer and
more promising fields
The most disconcerting news comes
from Globe, from Sheriff Armer Cen
eral Manager Paul G. Beckett of the
Old Dominion mine, Judge Shute and
George r. Hill who agree that the sit
uation has got beyond local control
The county authorities are defied and
derided by the strikers and there is
grave danger of the destruction of
property.

rangement could be made for keeping
the pumps on the Old Dominion which

settlement of the dispute could be ar

was received that crowd of 200 strik-
ers many of them Austrians, other
foreigners and Americans, members of

the mine and would permit no one to
pass Even the sheriff was turned back
and laughed at. A rigid picketing sys-
tenn is in force.
When men who have been employed
at work on the pumps come off, they
are not allowed to go back and others
are prevented from taking their places.
There was some rioting late yesterday
afternoon, stones thrown at men trying
to go to work. their lunch baskets TAX
