Staggering Burden

in a position where the able-bodied are all working to pay what they can to- ward the interest Of the government loan, after earning enough to keep themselves and their families alive, and the old and the young, without support and deprived of their savings, become
 poorhouse burdens on the community.
 Already the mere interest of the war loan of Germany amounts to four bil- lions of marks year, and to this must be added, of course, the interest of the
 previous indebtedness of the country
 and of each political subdivision there
 of, including cities, all of which have
 added to their before the war debt by incurring great debts to help the des- titute in this war. On course, to all this must be added the expenses of the ad ministration of the government and the maintenance of the army and navy.

Fixing the Price of Copper

We doubt very much whether the protest from Arizona against fixing the price of copper Will avail anything against the determination of the gove"n- ment, policy fix the prices of all com modities which are of extensive and which are produced from a comparatively few sources or which may be controlled by comparatively few men,.
 It is matter, of course of the greatest import this state that the price of copper should not be fixed especially such low figure that which has been suggested The importance lies not in the fact that the profits of the mine would be adversely affected but in the certainty that the wages of miners would be reduced, with the certainty of industrial trouble and the idleness of the mines.
 We have had a good deal of industrial trouble at Arizona mines this year but it was because of dissatisfaction with wages Though it is now pretty well settled in all the but reduction of the wage scale would almost certainly it more violently than ever.
 It is much difficult the mines than formerly Many of the miners have gone into other, more pleasant if not more lucrative employ ment Some have gone to and altogether the available number of competent miners has been greatly reduced Their places have been taken by inexperienced men.
 In great Arizona mine, there more mer working than have been employed in years, yet the monthly output is smaller than it has been in years Even at the present wage scale the largest Tn the country, the mines cannot attract large numbers of experienced miners. There will certainly be sad falling off if the scale should be lowered
 We do not know whether mines in other states would be affected by the fixing of prices but there can be doubt that if they fixed Arizona which produced more than onethrd of the countrys copper last year. will not this year be the leader
 If copper production in Arizona alone, should be disastrously affected could not reasonably expect the government to alter it's program except copper from price fixing however disastrous might be the effect in this The stake is not the welfare of any state community class but the welfare of a nation war
