URGE CONsERvANCY OF FUEL
"Lay In Coal Now" Says Ohio Expert,
"Else Freeze Next Winter"-
Mckibben Reports Findings.

Columbus.-Adding to the complica-
ton OF the Ohio fuel supply, which al
ready is in such condition that coal
is selling at more than $3.50 a ton,
came a report from the Public Utili-
ties Commission that there is no hope
for an increased gas supply next win
ter. The finding is the fruit Of labor
OF George L. McKibben, the expert OF
the commission, who has been making
a special study of the gas situstion.
In general it is stated in McKib-
ben's report that conditions in one
Ohio city are typical of conditions OBJ
tanning in others. He calls attention
to the report given by President M.
B. DAILY, of the East Ohio Gas Co., to
Mayor Harry L. Davis, of Cleveland,
in which it was said that last winter
the company furnished the maximum
supply and can be expected to do no
more,
McKibben says his Investigations
confirm the statements made. The
general recommendation is conserVa-
tion of the supply, but it is indicated
that there are proposals that will re-
lieve the seriousness of conditions
rather than afford real remedy. He
would have consumers economic and
reduce waste to the negligible point.
Supplementary to this advice is the
injunction to lay in supply of coal
for the winter. The lesson of last win
ter's gas shortage, says McKibben,
| 1cfT Of 4

tions to forestall conditions.

LABOR STANDARDS
MOTTO BELOWERED
DECISION REACHED AT MEETING
OF LABOR AND EMPL OWING
INTERESTS.
ACTION OF DEFENSE COUNCIL
Need of Farm Hands Is Subject of
Discussion at Columbus Session
Shortage of 1900 Workers, 1t Is Es-
timated-Road Building Urged.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Columbus.-Quite conclusive was
the victory gained by labor in enlist
ing for its program the Ohio branch
of the Council of National Defense,
which has just taken affirmative ac-
ton through its Committee on Labor
and Industrial Relations. With unan-
unity the decision was reached that
the labor leaders are right in contend
ing positively against any attempt to
reduce labor standards during the war
so long as conditions do not make
such a step imperative.
The attitude Of the Ohio Council
may show its reflection in the course
both of other states and of the Ma
tional Government in dealing with Ia
Dor, and is regarded as having demon
strated the force of the labor insist
ence upon maintenance of the situa-
ton that existed when the state of
hostility was declared. At the meet
ing were three representatives of Ia
Dor and three of employing interests
The attitude with reference to labor
standards was defined in response to
many letters which suggested in
creased industrial production by par
tial suspension of labor laws and by
lengthening the hours of toll.
1t was agreed proposals for changes
would be unwise, and Fred c. Croxton,
of the State Council, was requested to
inform all inquirers of the desire to
10 fC faI, To-
has won. 1t was indicated that the
committee believes in the rigid main
tenance of the present industrial sit
uation.
For the present the discussion of
filling UP gaps by calls to military
service was not considered essential,
| the committee believing in awaiting
the actual conditions and not attempt
| ing to anticipate them. One of the
| proposals discussed was the registra-
ton for supplementary war purposes
of all persons between 1S and go years
old, but it was felt that this will need
| legislation. The proposal had back.
ers in the committee
One of the agreements was on the
necessity of keeping up the highway
construction programs and maintain
ing present roads in repair. The man
ner of getting labor was a serious
problem discussed, but no positive so
luton could be found.
The committee discussed the nee6
of harvest hands, and an agreement
was worked out by which factories
and public utilities will be encouraged
to send country-trained young me1
home for the harvest period, keeping
their jobs open for them. The sug
gestion that city men spend vacation:
on farms was not well received, be
cause the committee agreed that hell
and not visitors are needed. Croxto1
put the minimum of extra hands re
quired on the farm at 1900.

ALL B0RAx FROM CALIFORNIA
Mines Of the Far Western States Are
the Only Sources Of Supply in
the United States.

The volcanic deposits on the east
side Of the Calico mountains, at the
edge of the Mohave desert of Califor-
mia, include clays containing coleman
lite, a crystalline borate of lime, says
Uncle Sans geological survey. Cole
mantle contains 500 per cent of boric
acid, 27.2 per cent of lime, and 21.9
per cent Of water. The deposits near
the Calico mountains are believed to
have been formed by replacement of
limy beds that were laid down locally
during the evaporation Of lake waters,
at intervals between some Of the
great outbursts Of volcanic elects
which formed so large a part Of the
tertiary deposits. The boric acid was
undoubtedly derived from fresh vol
canic materials and carried to its
present position by underground wa
ters. The deposits are in two prin-
cipal beds, each five feet thick and
about fifty feet apart. These beds
have been mined to a depth Of 500
feet. All the borax produced in the
United States is obtained from Cali
fornia mines, mainly from Lang, north
Of Los Angeles, and Death Valley.
The value Of borate ores produced in
1915 was nearly $1,7O0.000.-United
States Geological Survey, Department
of the Interior.

OUTPUT OF COPPER GROWS
Value of Production in Michigan In
1916 Was IS Per Cent Larger
Than in 1915.

The production Of copper in Michi-
gan in 1916, as reported by the United
States geological survey, was 273.-
692, ,525 pounds, valued at $67, ,32St361,
and that of silver was 716,640 fine
ounces, valued at $471, $40. a combined
value of $67, ,799,910. This is an in
crease of $21, 1,O7s, ,251, or 45 per cent,
over the value of the output in 1915.
The average price Of copper per
pound for 1915 was $0.246. compared
with $0.175 in 1915. The average
price of silver for 1916 was $0.658 per
fine ounce; for 1915 it was $0.5O7.
The average value per ton of "rock"
treated was $5.34, compared with
$3.76 in 1915.
The smelter production, or the out.
put of refined copper, in 1915 was
269, ,794, ,531 pounds, which represents
an increase of 30,83s,12 pounds over
the smelter production for 1915.

COAL FIELDS OPENED
Uncle Sans Railroad in Alaska
Causes Development.
Many Mines Already Put In Commits
sion and Supply of Fuel Made
Available at Low Prices.

The railroad which Uncle Sam is
building in Alaska has already result
ed in the opening of several new coal
mines, making available large fuel
supplies at low prices, it is announced.
1t has also resulted in the springing up
OF several good-sized towns where a
Few years ago there was nothing but
small villages or the wilderness.
Since congress authorized construc-
ton Of this railroad, March II, 1914,
remarkable progress has been made.
Much Of the road has been cleared
and graded, and regular service estab-
lished from Seward, on Resurrection
bay, to Kern creek, on Turnagain
Arm. From the thriving town of An
chorage as far as the Matanuska coal
fields, where large forces of miners
are at work, trains run regularly.
Seward in 1914 was an untidy town
Of 700 or 800 inhabitants. Today its
1000 permanent residents point with
pride to concrete business blocks, COM
Portable residences and extensive pub
lie utilities.
Anchorage in 1914 was an uninhab-
tied wilderness. Today 5000 people
make it their home, and its future is
full Of promise. 1t is the nearest tide
water railroad point for the distribu-
ton of coal mined in the interior, and
ships of any size can be accommodated
in its harbors.
The mines that are served by these
towns and by the railroad are practi-
callv inexhaustible, and their product
Is of very high order. Secretary Lane
Of the interior department has an
nounced that coal mining has been
started on commercial scale in these
mines, and a large amount has been
contracted for by the Alaska Engineer
ing commission, in charge of the
government railroad.
Matanuska coal tested recently by
the navy department was found equal
to the better grades mined in the
| Pennsylvania and West Virginia BIZ
luminous fields. The first mine opened
in this district, known as the 'Doherty
mine," Is at Moose creek, a point Of
the Matanuska branch line, 80 miles
distant by rail from Anchorage.
A 150-foot shaft sunk there has
exposed vein Of unusually fine coal,
and go tons are turned out every "a
hours, even under the present limited
conditions.
This Doherty mine is operated under
a special permit issued by Secretary
Lane, primarily for the purpose of OBJ
tanning coal needed as fuel for loco
motives, steam shovels and other en-
gines used in connection with the gov
ernment work.
Before the opening of this mine, the
commission had been importing such
coal as they could get from Puget
sound at a cost Of from SIG to $1s pei
ton delivered at Anchorage. Matan.
uska coal now sells at SO per ton.

Derivation of "SIacker.n

"Slacker" is English-minted and a
product of the war. The word as now
used means a man who holds back
from military service, who has to be
conscripted; by extension a man who
holds back from any patriotic service,
whether military or not. There is
nothing obscure in the derivation from
the transitive verb slack" as ito
slack your work." meaning to be re-
miss in or neglectful Of it; to shirl,.
A Stacker is a shirker Of his duty,
more particularly his duty to his cou2-
try.

gen from the air is being built at La
