Copper Production And Exports

THE general opinion that action Of the war industries
board in increasing the price Of copper from 25 cents
in copper production calls for comment another
fact, namely, that Arizona smeers already shipping
each month more copper than the total exports Of copper
from the United States The Arizona shelters alone
doing this the plants outside the state Naturally
the copper shipped by the Arizona shelters extracted
RON ore taken IRON Arizona and northern Sonora mines
As matter Of fact the product shipped by the Arizona
eters IS equal to the monthly exports in 1917 In the
1Irst i've months OF last year exported 933980OO
pounds of copper month, which is about the total Of
Arz0na's copper shipments for the month of May The
Nay shipment from the state was therefore nearly
100000 pounds above the Nay exports Of this year
which amounted 577a00oo pounds and about 900 600
pounds more than the April exports
It is interesting note that exports Of copper
falling off but exports Of copper products growing
larger This is due principally to the fact that more copper
being consumed IN munitions factories IN the United
states ana IS neng pPel 10 our own torces and those OF
the allies in the finished whereas in past years
shipped raw copper to European factories to be made up
But the need for increasing production persists. It
declared to be fact that copper only available

and domestic automobile requirements Whatever increased

Soldiers Chances Good.
from the Dayton Naws

from Inc Dayton News.
There is In the province Of Quebec a
military hospitals commission, which
has been keeping an account of the
manner IN which Canadian troops hays
Jared on European battlefelds. We
have heard so much about the high per
centage of casualties among the Cana
dian troops that it has come to be be-
leved pretty generally by the people of
this country that American boys who
go to fight in France are likely to have
a very poor chance to come home alive
or free from injuries that will disable
them for life. Basing it's computations
upon the experiences of Canadian sol
dlers in the war. the military hospitals
commission furnishes these statistics:
The boy who goes to the front has
% chances to come home as against
n that he will be killed. He has 80
chances to recover from a wound
against two that he will die because of
wounds received in battle. There is.
II chance In 500 that he will lose an
arm or a leg. II is explained also that
in this var only one man dies from
disease as against 10 to Is who fell vic
TINS of various diseases in other wars.
This estimate is proportional. But 10
per cent of the Canadian soldiers dis
abled on the battlefields ara rendered
unfit physically to Engage in their for
mer occupations. There ought to be-
cause for genera encouragement in
these figures.

Divining in deep laden speech

Eager to tear the veil Of Truth:

Alas, the dreams, the dreams OF men,
A music land, whose life is wrought
In movements Of melodious thought
In symphony. great wave on wave
Or fugue, elusive, swift, and grave:
