SANS SOLDIERS
RECEIVE LIBERAL PAY

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 20
Ask the first ten people you meet
what Uncle Sam pays his soldiers
L. will be safe to bet they won:
know.
Half of them may have some hazy
idea about a dollar a day." and
you will find lots of people who
think Uncle Sam still pays the old
scale of $13 a month, but few out
side the army know the ms and
outs of the wage scale, eve for
private soldiers.
The whole pay system of the Uni
ted States army has been revolu-
tionized since the war started.
A private in Uncle Sans armies,
regular, national guard or national
army, receives in cash, as long as he
is in the United States, $33 a
month, in addition to food, clothing
and medical attendance.
When he is sent to Europe he
gets 20 per cent extra, whether in
training or in the trenches, which
brings the minimum cash pay up to
$3.50 a month, or $1.30 a day.
The revolutionary part of the pay
system, however, about which most
people are ignorant, is the scale of
allowances made by the govern
ment to the soldiers dependents.
We are thus breaking away from
the old theory of paying soldiers
a flat wage for fighting to the new
theory that the nation is RESPONSE
BILE for the welfare not only of the
man in service, but for the depend
ents whom he left behind him.
Under this new scheme. If there
is a wee wife waiting" she receives
each month direct from Uncle Sam
SIS a month, which is virtually in
addition to the fighting mans
wage, and brings his total compen-
sation up to $4S a month while he
is in the United States and to $54.-
60 abroad.
If there is one child with the
wife, the allowance is $50 a
month; two children $3.50, and
SO on up to the point where, with
a wife and six children, Uncle Sam
paws $50 a month in cash to the
family.
1t may not be enough to support
them, even with what the enlisted
man can send home out of his
wages, but it is at least a recogni-
ton of Uncle Sans responsibility
and a bulwark against dependence
on charity.
Allowances are also provided for

NEVADA MINES
HAVE ANTHONY
DISTRICT IN HUMBOLDT COUNTY
MAY BE BIG PRO-
DUCER

Anthony is one of the necessary
war minerals for which the United
States is dependent on foreign coun-
tries and of which larger domestic
supplies should be promptly devel-
oped. Accordingly, in view of the
desirability of having information on
all possible domestic sources of anti
mony, the Arabian mining district,
in Humboldt county, Nevada, has re-
Gently been examined by a geologist
of the United States Geological Sur
vey, department of the interior.
This mining district, long idle
after its first period of activity in
the late sixties, has become active
again under the stimulus OF the
present higi prices of lead, anti
mony and silver. The pioneer smelt-
er in Nevada, at Oreana, on the
Central Pacific railroad, was built
in 1865 to reduce the ore of the
Montezuma mine in the Arabia dis
trict.
The ores of the district are notable
in that they consist almost wholly
Of silver-bearing b~indheimite, the So
called hydrous antimonate of lead.
None of the orebodies have been ex-
plored to a vertical depth greater
than 200 feet, and the zone OF un-
altered sulphides has nowhere been
reached. The primary ores of the
district were formed under high
temperatures by "deep-seated" min
e%ralization. In view of this origin,
some of the stronger veins may car
ry ore in depth.
This possibility, together with the
chance that a zone of enriched silver
sulphides exists in depth, suggests
that the district merits deeper ex-
ploration than has yet been attempt
ed. The principal use of antimony
in war is to harden the lead in bull
let's.

It was exposed by an incident which befell an innocent man identically as it is shown in the photodrama. The valuable can vas was covered with preparation and other paints in water coiors were covered over them and they passed through the customs house as merely water colors, then the crooked art dealer washes on the preparation and reveals the rich portrait.
