Heavy Oil Trains
 Passing Through

Heavy trains of oil cars are being handled by the Santa Fe through kingman almost daily now. Solid trainloads are passing through, while innumerable loads of from half doz- en to dozen are carried. The war IS requiring millions of gallons of oil and the capacities of the present oil fields are taxed. Washington au- thorities are urging the oil producers to do everything in their power to in crease their production and various parts of the country are being pros pected for oil. It wild be no surprise if new oil fields were opened up in the next few months or year.

RENO, New, Dec. 1.-Silver opera tors from Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Col orado and Idaho were to be represent ed at the conference to be held the latter part of this week at Washing ton between the treasury department and the silver producers of the west
 The Nevada operators will oppose the proposal of the government to fix the price of silver at something less than 86 cents an ounce, asserting sil- yer at 86 cents affords a narrower margin of profit to operating mines than silver at 50 cents did during the pre-war period. Enormous increases have taken place in such cost factors as labor, machinery, coal, e cyanide, ex- plosives and other operating require ments and the indications, they say, are that operating costs will increase rather than diminish in the next year.
 Operators say that in districts where silver is produced as a by-pro- duct of copper it is possible for mines to operate profitably on an 86-cent basis on account of the present price allowed by the government to copper producers, but in the districts where silver is the only or principal mineral content this price would be unfair in view of increasing mining costs.
 Western operators are also serious ly concerned over a strict Oriental embargo unless the government and other allied nations will absorb the entire domestic production.
