TO SHARE PROFITS
WITH EMPLOYEES
HENRY FORD WILL SELL STOCK
TO HIS WORKERS BEGIN
MING NEW YEARS DAY

DETROIT, Mich.-(By A. P.)-
Elaboration Of its profit sharing plan
whereby all employees will be enabled
to purchase certificates of invest
ment in the company, guaranteed to
return six per cent interest annually,
and the distribution tatalling between
$8,000,000 and $10,000,000 was an
nounced today by the Ford Motor
Company.
Approximately 10000 Ford en-
ployes will participate in the new
bonus, according to their length of
service and present salaries, it is said.
The bonus it is understood will range
from $50 for men who have been in
the company's employ more than
three months and who earn the min
imum daily salary of Sc, to $27O for
workers of five years service, who
receive $10.80 a day.
Privilege of investing earnings in
the company, it is understood, will
be restricted to employees in active
service, payment to be made from
their wages and with bonuses re-
ceived. Investments, it is said, will
be limited to one-third of the yearly
salary of the employe.
The two workers benefit plans an
nounced, it is understood, are the
forerunners Of other changes in the
policy of the company contemplated
by Henry Ford and his son, Edsel,
since the two recently came into full
control of the huge organization. In
addition, it was said, the profit-shar-
ing plan, inaugurated in 1914, will be
continued.

CHURCH STATISTICS
WERE MISLEADING
FIGURES BY COMMISSIONER
OF IMMIGRATION RECENTLY
PUBLISHED ARE WRONG

! That there were gross errors In the
statistics of Idaho churches publish
ed by the Commissioner of Immigra-
tion, synopsis of which was pub
lished in The Star-Mirror recently, is
evident The figures were taken
from the report of the commissioner
of immigration, copy of which
reached The Star Mirror office. The
Methodists were especially interested
in the report as they felt that their
church had not been given credit for
it's real strength. Last night DR..
Allen, member of the church, called
the editor by telephone and stated
that the publication of the statistics
had awakened much interest and dis
cussion in his Sunday school class
and that the class had started an
investigation and had ascertained
that, instead of there being 81 Meth
odist churches in Idaho, there are "a,
or more than double that number.
Pastor Perry's Statement
Today Rev. H. 0. Perry, pastor of
the Methodist church, handed the
editor the following communication
with request that it be published.
His communication follows:
December 81, 1919.
Editor of the Star-Mirror:-Th
writer is interested in knowing where
the statistics came from, which were
published a few days ago relative to
the churches of the state of Idaho. At
the time he questioned the accuracy
of the report for the Methodist Epis-
copal church. Since then he has as
certained the facts and finds that
whereas the report has it that there
are 81 Methodist piscopal churches
in the state of Idaho, there are in
stead 88. Each one with a church
building.
If the statistics for the other
churches are as accurate as this,
surely they are of very little mean
ing.
HAROLD o. PERRY.
Rev. Mr.. Perry was shown the COM
missioner's report and quickly dis
covered number of errors in it. For |
instance no Methodist church is men
toned in Moscow, where Mr.. Perry
says there has been Methodist I
church for 40 years The report gives
81 Methodist churches in Idaho, To-
lated at the following points: Albion,
American Falls, Ashton, Vernon,
Blackfoot, Boise (3), Buhl, Caldwell,
Emmett, Glenns Ferry, Haley, Hey

MOVING MOUNTAIN
TO GET COPPER ORE
ENORMOUS UNDERTAKING BE-
ING SUCCESSFULLY CARRIED
OUT IN ARIZONA /.

BISBEE, Mining engineers
have solved the historic prophets
problem and have literally "moveo
the mountain to Moheet.v Ten millior
feet of Sacramento hill, adjoining
Bisbee, is being shoveled by steam
and carted away by railroad so thai
the Phelps Dodge corporation can
reach 100000 tons of copper ore
which is part of the ramifications of
the Copper Queen mine.
1t is gigantic project. All the
genius of the engineering department
of the organization was required to
put into effect the leveling of the
mountain, the work of which began
in 1917. Care had to be used in
blasting to prevent damage to prop
erty and life in Bisbee and Warren
from boulders hurled down the noun
tain side into the town.
Where to put the earth covering
of this mining treasure was another
problem. Warren and Bisbee occupy
the gulcK at the foot of Sacramento
Hill. 1t was necessary to build a
railroad track into several spur
gulches and because of the narrow
width these had to be single tracked
To prevent accident, and facilitate
continual movement of earth from
the steam shovels working at the
hill top, competent railroad train
dispatcher and telephone equipment
was installed
The work was begun in the midst
of the war while machinery was hard
to obtain and labor difficulties were
increased by I. w. w. agitators. Yet
in spite of these handicaps the work
men have leveled the top of the hill
and removed large slice from one
side of the mountain.
The steam shovels have not yet
reached the rich copper veins of the
Copper Queen, but they have come
into ore containing one half to one
per cent copper. Some day, perhaps,
means may be discovered to extract
this copper at a profit. Experiments
have been made in heap teaching of
low grade ore, which promise few
cents a ton profit by separating it
into piles for teaching by water
alone
In the meantime the steam shoveIs
are keeping steadily at work in the
hope that soon these giant instru-
ments may be rivalling the Copper
Queen underground miners in the
production of copper.
This is said to be the first expert
ment of its kind in mining and it's
success may mean revolution in the
industry.

HARVARD TEAM PLEASED
WITH COOLER WEATHER

PASADENA, Calif.-(By A. P.)-
Fallen temperature was gleefulIy
welcomed by the Harvard football
players and coaches today. Tomor-
row is expected to be fair and cool.
Both Harvard and Oregon head
coaches expressed complete satisfac-
ton with the condition of the players
for tomorrow's game. Harvard play
ers appear to have lost some weight
and Oregon players have gained
some, thus tending to equalize oppon-
ents' weight.

Russian Money Nearly Worthless

HONOLULU, T. Han American
dollar will buy from $50 to 18O Rus
sian roubles, Kolchak currency, in
Siberia today, according to party
of twenty-five Russian business men
who recently passed through here on
their way to settle in Salina Cruz,
Mexico.
1t is not difficult to make plenty
of money in Siberia, said the Rus
slams, but the money is next to
worthless. They declared they had
been forced out of business in Siberia
by the conditions there, and had
chosen Mexico as a promising field
in which to rebuild their fortunes.
