"Life-Sized' Comforts

If you seek fullest satisfaction,
b11v furniture of comfortable pro-
portions. Large, roomy easy chairs,
Davenports with deep seats and well
extended backs, and tables with
spacious top are essential to comfort
and, convenience. Even if your
rooms are small avoid furniture
which is suggestive of cramped
spaces and physical discomfort.
Select, rather, fewer pieces, but let
those which you do choose be of
adequate size. The cost will be no
greater and the suggestion of a
wholesome manner of living will
Immediately impress all who enter

DOLLAR WAGE GUT IN SILVER MINES
Generalization of Metal Mar kets Brings Decrease
 at Leadville

LEADVILLE, Colo, April 3-The Iron-Silver Mining company. operating the Mikado and other properties, has announced cut in wages of a dollar a day, due, it is stated, to demoralization in metal markets, especially lead and zinc. The Yak mines, owned by the American Smelling & Refining con- pany have also posted notices of a similar cut, and other lead-zinc mines of the district will probably follow suit George, O. Argall, manager of the Iron-Silver company, made the TOT lowing statement:
 Owing to the low price of metals, the increased freight and treatment charges and the high cost of produc- tion, it has been found impossible to profitably operate this property. The company cannot continue to mine out the best grade of its ore reserves and at the same time, sustain the addi- tional financial loss that present con ditions impose. Either the operating cost must be reduced or the mine must shut down. In order to keep the mine in operation we are compelled to ask the employees to absorb part of the burden to the extent of accepting a reduction in wages of $1 per day to be- come effective May l.
 Realizing that the cost of living still remains high, and that to reduce the amount paid to employees may prove a hardship to them, the com pany is reluctant to make any reduc- .tion at all. We cannot, however, car " the present operating loss indefi- nitely. Since similar reductions to wage scales have been found neces- sary and have been made in other base metal mining districts, and as many mines have been forced to close in spite of wage reductions, we sin cerely hope that our employees will agree to this plan, so that the local mining industry may survive the ex- isting crisis
 It has been realized for some time that reductions in the wage scale would be made, and a committee of business men have been securing pledges from dealers in food staples that they would reduce their prices as much as possible in order to enable the miners to live under the reduced scale which will be $3.5O per day. There is no miners organization in this district.

LAND LEASE BILL
 VOID, B DECISION
Four Other Measures Also De clared Dead by Attorney
 General Jones

PHOENIX, April 3.-The iand leas- ing bill and four others carrying the emergency clause, which were trans mitted to the secretary of state by Governor Campbell without executive action. 'are not the laws of the state of Arizona under the constitution" ac cording to the official written opin ion of Attorney General Wiley Jones issued tonight
 The other bills affected by the attor ney generals opinion are the amend ments to the land code, carrying cer tain salary raises, the irrigation dis trict bill, the county classification bill and a relief measure.
 It was reported earlier in the week that parties unknown were prepar- ing to launch a court action to prevent the operation of these measures, the contention being, that an emergency bill, to become law must carry the gov ernor's signature or be passed by a three-fourths vote of the legislature. The attorhey general at that time would not give an opinion in the mat ter though he pointed out the clauses in the state constitution, which, ne said, he had been informed were the basis of the argument against the bills.
 Today Secretary of State Nit Sims asked for an official opinion and At torney General Jones ruled against the bills, as follows: '
 That the emergency measure men tioned in your letter are not laws at this time is plainly evident, is the opinion of this department:
 Tt is sufficient to advise you there fore, at this time that the emergency measures to which you have directed the attention of this department are not the laws of the state of Arizona under the constitution of the state, nor should you act upon them as such, for the reason that the governor of the state withheld his approval of said measures"
 The attorney general concluded his opinion with the following paragraph on an exchange of courtesies between the governor and himself:
 "On the 14th day of this month, l as attorney general, called at the gov ernor's office through courtesy due tc him and offered my services and ad vice to aid him in the legal and con stitutional consideration of any mea sures passed by the legislature anc presented to him for executive action The thanks of the executive were courteously conveyed to me and by me courteously acknowledged. l felt thai my position required me to assume the responsibility involved in my offel to the governor, but my offer met.witl no response beyond the courtesl above mentioned"

 PARIS. April s-eBy the -Associared Press.)-The latest advices concern ing the fighting at Frankfort and the renewal of the strike in Berlin con- firm the impression prevailing in Ger many when the former Berlin core spondent of the Associated Press left there week ago that the then com parative lull in the manifestations of industrial disorder and revolutionary violence and pillage by the rabble was only temporary.
 Germany was at that time fairly quiet, the only important exception be- ing strike in the surrounding re- gion- The March insurrection in Der lin and the disturbances in central Germany and in east Prussia had been suppressed; the flame of disorder was only fhckering in the Silesia coa. fields, while order was being main tained in Bremen, Essen and other cities. formerly scenes of Spartacan uprisings, and the socialist proletariat of Bavaria, although running affairs in that state without regard to the cen tral government, were not seeking any occasion of conflict with the central authorities.
 Spartacans Energetic
 Beneath the surface there were abundant possibilities of trouble The majority of the German working men, particularly the married men, wish ;e work, although higher wages are be- ing constantly demanded, to meet the rising cost of food An energetic Spartacan minority and the younger irreprsibles, however, are constantly causing trouble and preaching bolshe- vist doctrines of reiterated political strikes to dispossess factory owners and overthrow the present govern ment.
 On earlier occasions, as at Berlin and in the Ruhr region, these minori ties had been able to inveigle or per suade others into joining the strike producing higher wages in case of success, and holding out the bait of abundant food shipments from Russia if the government were over thrown and an alliance concluded with bolshevist Russia.
 Fear Minority
 Tho factory owners feared that the radical minority might again dominate their fellows if a new strike was call ed under propitious circumstances, particularly as there were number of big establishments, known colo ouially as Liebknecht plants" where the workmen were largely Spar tacan, who could be counted on to give a most satisfactory impetus to general strike by going out in a body at given signal.
 Factory owners and others in close touch with industrial conditions re- gard the distribution of American food supplies at reasonable prices as the only possibility of mastering the strike movement, re-establishing industrial order and stimulating production.

LONDON, April 3.-(By the Asso- ciated ss.)-The curtain was rais- ed for the British public on the posi- tion of the allied armies in North Russia for the first time this after noon. The serious situation in the Murmansk region and the attempt by the bolsheviki to drive the allied troops on the Archangei front into the sea ar ethe cause of much anxiety. The London afternoon papers circu- lated posters through the streets with startling phrases OfNwhich the British army imperalide." was typical.
 The public bought the papers esg- erly, having no idea which army was referred to. Some of the papers de- clared that snother Kut surrender or Khartoum- tragedy threatened.
 Sir Earnest Shackleron, the ex- plorer, who has just returned from Russia, where he superintended the winter outtitting and feeding of the expedition, confirmed the danger to the allied position and armies. He is credited with stirring British off cials into keener realization of the seriousness of the position in Russia.
