DECLINE IS EXPECTED
OPINION RANGES FROM TWO TO EIGHT CENTS IN CIRCULATING AS TO AMOUNT OF DECREASE IN PRICE, WITH EXPORT BODY AS sTEADYINe FACTOR.

Official Washington interpreta-
 tion of the status of the War In-
 dustries board is that 1t will cease
 to function after January l. The
 price fixing committee and price
 fixing automatically go out at the
 same time. Therefore it is defi-
 nitely established that with expir-
 ation of the present month the
 government fixed price of 26 cents
 for copper comes top an end and
 that there will be no new price
 made by the government Its
 hands will be off on January l and
 copper once more back on the
 market subject to the laws of SUD-
 ply and demand.
 It is commonly accepted that cop per will register an immediate de cline. but no one is venturing predic- ton as to how much of drop there will be- Opinions range from two cents to eight cents. Forming during the week of the copper export assoei- ation. numbering in it's membership all of the larger selling agencies. Is looked to as possible steadying fac tor. The association may have the financial strength necessary to carry the copper surplus through a period that otherwise would be certain Of panic sales abroad Some idea of the money that surplus ac- counts must be called upon for in order to carry copper over any con siderable period will be gathered from the fact that carrying Arizona copper alone at 20 cents, will mean an ad- vance of approximately $15,OOO.OOO the month. Cancellation by the govern ment of the last quarter copper con tracts means that approximately ESQ., OOO. 900 is already being carried by Arizona producers. There is a limit to surplus funds as to everything else Protest against their establishment has been a favorite cry of radicals and tax methods have been favored for wiping out surplus accumulations. but in the face Of business readIust- ments on a down scale the surplus ac- counts afford the only safeguard the employer is able to furnish for the job of the employe.
 No publicity as yet appears to have been formulated in any quarter as 10 procedure among metal producers in the face of surplus stocks and lower prices. It has become more or less accepted. however, that some of the higher cost mines will be obliged to shut down. None of these are large producers or large employ CTS. and their closing will have no great effect upon either labor or met all Curtailment of production by the larger mines is naturally anticipated and many take the place of redue- ton in wages. Operating properties with sufficinet surplus accounts are very likely to turn more attention to thus taking care of the larger part of their present operating forces and holding unemployment in their districts to the minimum This is the course known to De preferred by employers and that which they will doubtless pursue as far as they can

EXPLOSIVES LAW IS
 STILL IN EFFECT

JEROME. Dec. 21.-The federal law regulating the sale and handling of explosives is still in effect, despite rumors to the contrary. which have been in circulation throughout the Verde district.
 R. w. Warren, deputy explosives licensor for Jerome, heard of these rumors and in order to make sure, directed an inquiry to Ed. l.. Shaw. of Phoenix. hcensor for Arizona. Show replied in part, as follows:
 Replying to your favor of Decem- Der G. beg to advise that there has been no change in the explosive act farther than the discontinuance of licenses for ingredients. firewarks, etc. Q, The balance Of the law as originally passed, is still in force and my impression is that it will be continued indefinitely.

OLD RAILWAY is DlSMANTLED
Rails Once Used for Carrying Freight
In Mine District are Sold
for Junk.

Redding, Cal.-The railroad from
CuargO on the Southern Pacific to the
Quartz Hill mine on the east side of
the river, near the Old Diggins, four
and 0ne-half miles long, has been sold
as old junk by the Mammoth Copper
Company of Kennett which built in
1907 at a cost of 100000. The mine
was shut down in 1913, for then the
Mammoth Copper company was able to
get the fiuxing ore at a better profit
elsewhere. The bridge across the river,
made of steel, is 700 feet long.
The wrecking company bought the
railroad steel, ties, bunkers, treStles
and bridge. Acetylene gas will be used
to cut down the steel bridge.
The railroad was in active service
for seven years. The Mammoth COM
pany took 10000 tons of ore from the
Quartz Hill mine in single year and
made use of 100000 tons of ore in all.
The Quartz Hill mine, great body
of low grade quartz, 10 owned by
company composed of Polish priests In
Chicago. The Pope was said to DO a
large stakeholder.

NO BRIGHT MONEY
Mrs. BilItops Rises to Height of
SeIt-SaCrifiCe.
She Had Good Thing" in Her Ar.
rangement with the Partner Of
Her Joys and Sorrows, but
Patriotism Came First.

= something unexpected has hap
;pened," said Mr.. Bllltops. Something
quite unexpected.
You know, for years have been CIV
ing Mrs. Billtops all my bright money.
Whenever got bright dime or quar-
ter or half l simply turned 1t over to
Mrs. Billtops.
There might be weeks when /
would not get single bright coin;
but there would be other weeks In
which l would receive in change a
considerable number. Altogether these
bright coins provided for Mrs. B. a
tidy bit of revenue, and / am sure it
was as great pleasure for me to turn
them over to Mrs. Billtops as it was
for her to receive them, though once
this bright money proposition did give
me little scare.
Il dropped into a candy store one
day to get some candy for Mrs. Bill
tops and there in change for So bill
/ received two bright dimes and four
absolutely spick and span bright new
81 bills
"Well, now, there was something to
make you stop and think. Under our
understanding l was to give Mrs. Bill
tops all bright money 1t is true that
by that l understood bright coins, and
l had no doubt that Mrs. Billtops did,
too, but the promise from me was of
all bright money and on strict in
depreciation, which I did not desire to
evade, there was nothing for me to do
but to turn over with the two bright
dimes those four bright dollars. Which
/ did.
''But Mrs. Billtops declined to re.
ceive them.
"'No, Ezra, she said, mo. We both
understood bright money to mean
bright coins, and we will go not by
the letter of the contract but by the
spirit. Ezra, you keep the $4.'
(Which I did, and was always glad
she settled it that way, for the oppo-
Site Interpretation of my obligation
might sometimes have subjected me to
considerable inconvenience.
Suppose l should some day have
gone into a candy store and laid down
not S. bill but a $1,000 bill and re-
ceived In change $99920 all in bright
money, which by the contract should
have been required to turn over to
Mrs. Billtops. Why, l have seen the
time when handing over that amount
Of money in that way would have
cramped me quite some.
But never have l failed to hand
over all bright coins, year after year
continuously, until yesterday, when
that something unexpected happened
when Mrs. Billtops said to me:
Ezra, no more bright money. 1
have always been glad to get it for
the sentiment of 1t and for the use l
could make of it, but you need the
money more now and from now on you
keep 1t and use it as you would any
other money and l will deny myself
that luxury. No more bright money,
Ezra, from now until the end of the
war
Unexpected it certainly was, but
still 1t was only what you would have
expected her to do, If you knew Mrs.
Billtops."

that although Julius Caesar received
80 wounds when he was murdered only
one was fatal. The first blow produced
only slight wound, but the second,

Knights OF Columbus Worker PrssIdss
At Meeting In Ruined Chapel
In France

Had 1t not been for Father James
Horton, formerly principal Of the Mar

a volunteer chaplain with the Knights
of Columbus overseas there would
have been no services In the little
ruined chapel OF st. Crepin In the

and drove the Huns back toward the
Rhine. The knights of Columbus are
one of the seven war work agencies
to join in the United Wark Work

$40, 800, 900.
Father Horton was right UP with
the vanguard of the on-rushing Ameri-
cans and, after the Germans had been
cleaned out of their cellars and ma
chine gun ambushes, the old Cure,
who had emerged from some unknown
hiding place, insisted on holding serv-
ice in ST. Crepin's chapel to celebrate
she liberation of the city.
There were no vestments, no can
dies, no sacred vessels. But Father
Horton rode a motorcycle back to the
headquarters of the Knights of Co
lumbus, secured the supplies needed
by the Cure and rushed them back
by automobile.
The services were held and no more

than those that went up from that lit
