MARSHALL HALE
RED CROSS Man
SAN FRANCISCO BUSINESS MEN
WILL HEAD WESTERN
DIVISION

WASHINGTON, L. c., Sept. 6. =
H. p. Dawson, chairman of the Red
Cross war council, today announc-
ed the appointment of Marshall
Hale, head of the Hale department
stores in San Francisco and other
western cities, as manager or ne
Pacific coast division Of the ed Cross.
Mr.. Hale has volunteered to serve
without pay for the duration of the
war. His territory, under the reof-
g%anization plan of the Red Cross, IN
cludes California, Nevada and Ari-
IONA, with a membership of 10000.
Division headquarters will be in San
Francisco.
Mr.. Hale's brothers and business
partners have volunteered to shout
der his share of the business to en-
able him to devote his entire time to
the Red Cross. Under the new
scheme of decentralization, eXecu-
tive direction of chapters will no
longer be done from national head
quarters in Washington. Chapters
will report directly and be RESPONSE
BILE to the division managers.
With the tremendous increase OF
Red Cross activities, owing to the
war. the prompt and intelligent
handling of the vast administrative
detail in Washington is impossible.
This work is now being done through
the 10 divisions, which are to be di-
rected by men of large business eX-
p~erience serving as volunteers.
Serving under the divisional man.
ayers will be representatives of all
the Red Cross departments in Wash
ington. Agents of the woman's bu-
reau, the department of civilian and
military relief, the Red Cross sup
ply service and the nursing service
will thus be able to keep in more
intimate touch with the activities of
chapters than has been possible here
tofore when directed from Washing
ton.

CUTS RICH DEPOSIT

Continued From Page One)
the cross-cut on the 300-foot level
and to the raise above the latter.
The first raise from the 300-foOt
level was connected with the work
ings on the 100 level a short time
ago and a considerable quantity of
good ore was taken from this raise.
Another raise from the lower level,
started lately, is also showing ore
of good grade.
The most important of recent de-
yelopments, however, has been in
the opening of. the new raise above
the 160-foot level, as a point about
raise has advanced about 60 feet
and for the greater part of this dis
lance has been in ore of shipping
grade, in some places yielding ex-
ceedingly high assays. The latest
sampling of the back of this raise
shows four and one-half feet of
orc averaging around $50 per ton,
while assays of two feet of this
material, earlier in the week, gave
$5O7 per ton.
In extracting ore for shipment no
effort is made to select the rich
material, but the greatest possible
width is broken that will yield a
profit in shipping to the shelters.
The object of the new raise above
the 16O-foot level was to determine
the extent to the east of the main
orebody and to block out this ore,
but the deposit now appears to be
considerably larger than was sup
posed and it's limits in an easterly
direction are still unknown. From
present indications it is regarded
as safe to estimate that ore of com-
mercial grade will be mined from
a point below the deepest level to
the surface.
On the 300-foOt level a cross-cut
is being driven to the north for the
purpose of prosecuting the north
vein. which has shown some pay ore
hear the surface in old lease work
ings. The main work of the COM
pany and it's Slopes in rich ore are
in the center vein of the three big
lodes hat traverse the Diamond
field ridge in an easterly direction.
The main drift on the 30O-foot
level will be extended to the east
ern boundary and If the vein in
this territory continues to show
ore of medium and low grade in
quantity equal to that in the ground
already p%rospected, a sufficient tom
mage of milling ore will be made
available, in addition to the pro-
duct of shipping grade. to justify
the building of a reduction plant of
substantial capacity.

reservoir capacity is afforded at this
shaft by the use of abandoned mine
workings of great extent.
In workings from the 1400-foot
level down to the 175O-foot point
a large tonnage of pay ore has been
placed in sight in the Atlanta mine.
This ore carries gold and copper,
with some silver and is said to be
an ideal product for treatment by
the flotation process. Shipments of
higher grade ore have been made in
considerable volume and recent
operations of the company nave
been conducted on a profitable
scale, with prospects for substantial
earnings as soon as the company
can market its lower grade product.

Jumbo Junior
Death Agitates Rawhide

An American flag, forcibly seized
from a dying woman, has been torn
to shreds and burned and Mrs. E,
c. Kelly, wife of a merchant, is
dead as a result of an alleged pro-
German outbreak at Rawhide. 1t
is alleged that the woman was for
chilly elected from a butcher shop
run by w. A. Nagel, a German, and
that she "a left to die on the side
walk. There were a number of
long gashes on her head and on
regaining consciousness she stated
that a women who was in the store
had struck her on the head with a
meat cleaver. There had been a
small silk flag pinned to her belt
and it is alleged that the woman
whom she says assaulted her tore
this from her and that it was burn
ed by an employee of the store
Alleged pro-German utterances by
a clique that gathered around Nagel
following the occurrence have led
to threats of deportation. Feeling
is running high.

NEED OF ECONOMY
DURING WAR TIME
LIBERTY LOAN SUBSCRIPTIONS
ARE IMPORTANT AID TOO
NATION

The United States is now at war.
A large part of our country's human
energy is taken away from the
farms, factories and industries of
peace, and until the war ends all
their energies will be devoted to
fighting.
A great portion of u productive
energy is being turned into the crea-
ton of implements of destruction.
Many of our products are now be-
ing devoted to purposes of var De-
struction instead of construction is
the object of a great portion of the
country's energy.
AS much of the human energy and
productive capacity of the nation are
now being devoted to the purposes of
war, so should the proper amount of
the money of the United States be so
devoted. He who offers his life for
his country is offering the greatest
possible sacrifice, but the American
men and ONE who support the
government with their money are
doing their part.
This war is going to be financed
largely out of the savings of the
American people during the war. 1t
is not too great a sacrifice to make
for ones country in time of war to
deny ones self Injuries, to cut down
unnecessary expenses, to lead quieter
and buster lives. Not only will the
money thus saved and used to buy
Liberty Loan bonds help the United
States, but the diminished consump-
ton of food and other articles will
do much to relieve the country from
the strain of war.
The less the people use the less
strain there is upon the productive
capacity of the nation and the more
can be devoted 10 winning the war;
the more the people save the more
liberal financial support a they
give the government. This is the

PROSPECT FOR RED HILL

CONTINUED From Page One1.
Syndicate lease, n of the largest
producers of bonanza ore on the
Florence property, we're extended
ul to the boundary line and yield
ed a large tonnage of high-grade
ore in this territory. The work OF
the Red Hill Florence company is
now being extended to prospect the
vein above these %stopes,on the in
cline of the vein. and the present
showing is regarded as most en-
couraging.
Farther to the north additional
development work has progressed
on the main 50O-foot level and this
work will serve to explore the big
lode at points corresponding in pos
ition, on the dip of the vein, with
workings a short distance to the
east, in Florence ground, where ore
of exceedingly high grade has been
found. Lessees now operating in
this part of the Florence property
have lately exposed some ore that
is equal in richness to any produc-
ed during the bonanza leasing per-
iod.
For the present the Red Hill
Florence management will direct
all it's efforts to exploring the rich
vein on and above the 500-foot
level, as the great production of
this vein has been almost altogether
from above this depth. All geologi-
cal conditions in this territory, in
Guiding the presence of w~ell-defin-
ed fault planes and cross assures,
are identical with those revealed in
opening the bonanza o%rebodies of
the adjoining Florence.
Results obtained at a half-dozen
points in the company's later devel-
opment work have afforded much
encouragement and the belief pre-
walls among those in touch with
mine conditions that the property is
destined to develop into a produc-
ing mine of the first rank. The
company has installed excellent, up
to-date equipment throughout and
it's development plans contemplate
the thorough exploration of large
areas of promising territory.

is a hard dark blue lime shale, the
soft shale struck at a point 70 feet
above the third level having passed
out of the shaft 20 feet below the

age less for each round in the shaft,
this hard formation is undoubtedly
the cause of no water being en-
