Chicago & Northwestern

Question-Please let me know what
you think of Chicago & Northwestern
Railroad common at $50 to $50 a share
as an investment. 1t has for a number
OF years paid per cent dividends.
DO you think they will be able to main
tam this rate wh0l they go back to
private ownership III. c.
Answer-The Chicago & Northwest
ern is one Of the best equipped and
best managed railroad properties in
the Middle West and in our opinion
should be able to maintain it's splendid
dividend record when turned back tn
private operation. Around present
prices the common, we believe, is n
good speculative investment.

GuanaiuatO Mining

Question-May I ask for your opn-
ion concerning the Guanajuato Mining
and Milling Company, in Mexico? I
have $50 shares, which have been in
the family more than fifteen years.
M. c. H.
Answer-This mine is not operating
at present. When troubles in Mexico
subside sufficiently to permit a resump-
tion of activities you, along with many
other stockholders in Mexican enter
prises, undoubtedly will have reason to
feel more comfortable.

HOW SCOUTS AIDED POLICE.

That boys, when they are scouts,
can be of great value to the police
force is attested in this letter from
Chief of Police 'Shaughnessy of Mo
bile, Ala, to the scout head there:
My Dear Sir: I feel much honored
for the gallant service you and your
boy scouts have rendered me and this
department. The highest commenda-
ton l should speak would be very
humble, for l really cannot put into
words what I feel about the Organi-
ZatiOn.
Had it not been for their assistance
/ doubt if the crowds and traffic would
have been handled so agnificently."

BOY SCOUTS AND MILlTARlSM

BY many the boy scouts are looked
upon as soldiers in the making. II
by making soldiers Is meant training
boys for intelligent public service,
cultivating character, self-reliance,
mutual helpfulness. and the capacity
to achieve success In the field of chOs-
en- endeavor, then the boy scout
movement may properly be regarded
as military. If by making soldiers is
meant cultivating a spirit of pug
nacity and the glorification OF war;
then the boy scout movement Is nom
military. These elements are not
found in it.
Only gradually does 1t become clear
ly evident to the public at large that
both professionally and in practice
the organization Of the Boy Scouts of
America is, always has been, and, In
so far as one can predict, always will
ha first of all peace organization
peace scouting for character and
citizenship" has always been its plat
FORM
But why is this position not yet
wholly free from confusion In the
public mind? Many still believe, in
spite Of what has been publicly said
and written and in spite Of the most
substantial proof to the contrary In
the conduct of the leaders and the
boys, that the movement trains boys
for war.
. The term scouting" while perhaps
more frequently employed in connec-
ton with military maneuvers and war
operations, has peaceful uses. Not i'm
properly, we think of scout as one
disciplined to hard wOrk-watchful,
self-reliant, observant, straightfor-
ward, unselflsh, and pleasant in his
dealings with others-in short, very
cempanionable, alert, and helpful fell
low.

WOMEN Want TO
TAKE HAND In
BORDER MIX-UP

GALVESTON, Texas, Nov. 8 (by
Associated Press).-Plans are being
made for a conference of prominent
women of Texas, New Mexico, Ari'
IONA and California, the Mexican Dor
der states, and representative women
of Mexico, some time this month, pri-
marily with a view to furthering good
relations between the United States
and the Southern republic.
The proposed conference is being
Manned by the Pan-American Round
Table, a woman's organization with
headquarters in San Antonio, accord
ing to Meade Fierro, Mexican consul
here, who has been asked by the or
ganization to interest the women OF
Mexico in the meeting.
Mrs. Florence T. Griswold OF San
Antonio, director general Of the wom-
ems organization, informed Consul
Fierro that she had written the gov
errors of the Mexican border states
asking them to select unofficially del
egates to the conference. The CO.
operation of the governors of the four
states in this country also has been
asked.
Mrs Griswold explains the view
point of the Round Table is that the
women of the two countries have been
the chief sufferers through the misun-
derstandings of the men, and that the
women, having no grievance against
each other, are in better position to
provide means for continued good re-
Iations between the peoples of the
two countries.
The date for the conference mas not
been set nor has the city where it Will
be held been designated.

TO CONNECT NOME
BY WIRE AND MAIL
WITH SIBERIAN PORT

Establishment of direct mail and
Geographic communication between
Nome and Anadry, Siberia, is now I'M
der investigation by two inspectors
= of the postoffice department.
The proposition, if carried out
bears large possibilities for this once
wealthy gold camp. In Northeast ST.
IBERIA there are approximately $4,000
people who must provide the bulk OF
their supplies either from Nome, one
hundred miles away, or from Petro-
= avlovsk, nearly thousand miles dis
tant. Nome, it is argued by officials
interested in the governments in
ouirv. should be the logical market
for all of the vast area lying north
of Kamchatka peninsula.
Bv the close of this years naviga-
ton period, it is estimated, nearly
$500 900 worth of American goods Will
have been carried from Nome to the
Siberian coast, and that with only a
few small vessels engaged in the
trade.
Siberian furs in return for Amerl-
can goods seems to be the possibility
of the future should the government
service be established, In addition, 1t
is pointed out, this will result in closer
relations between the Siberians and
residents of Seward peninsula,

lives for all that we hold most dear in life.
 Admitting that during the past four years so per cent of the worlds cop per has been devoted to the manufac- ture of munitions but a fraction of which will be salvaged, there exists a heavy deficit which must be sup piled to compensate for the tonnage which would normally have been re- quired for peace purposes. It is es- timated that telegraph, telephone and cable companies through their inabil- ty to obtain wire for extension, re- pairs and replacements, require over hundred million pounds to bring their operations to pre-war efficiency. Extensive plans are being formulated for the identification of railroads and in the case of England and France the plans of their governments include the installation of central generating plants from which will be transmit ted electricity for the operation of government owned transportation sys- tens and for power and lighting of important municipalities and indus trial centers. As it is fact that pe- riods of great prosperity have invari- ably followed great wars, it would seem that, with the problems of re- adjustment solved, we who produce nearly 70 per cent of the worlds to- tai output of copper may reasonably expect our share of such prosperity Copper will never again be sold at the low prices which have obtained in the past. Wages, due to the greatly increased cost of living, have in creased; with depth the copper con tents of the ore has fallen and the ore itself has become more expensive to beneficate. Costs of production have consequently mounted rapidly and it is unreasonable and contrary to the accepted principle of conservation that a wasting industry should be ex- hausted without fair return to la bor in good wages and to stockhold- CTS in reasonable dividends
 To Summarize: Until the present menace of the huge stocks of copper on hand in the United States and Europe is removed through their ab- sorbtion by the consuming industries, we must expect some months of re- duced output and intensive economics in all directions, but the future is bright with possibilities and discour- agement and pessimism are without justification.
 Yours very truly,
 WALTER DOUGLAS.

TYRONE INDICATES POLICY FOLLOWED
 BY P.D. COMPANY
Production Stopped, Men Are At Once Put To Work
 On Development

TYRONE, N M, June 2S.-The stopping of all production of copper at the Burro Mountain branch of the Phelps Dodge Corporation at Tyrone, and the turning of attention to devel- opment work and repairs indicates plainly the policy of the company. Ty- rone cannot produce copper at the present market price, with the pres ent cost of labor and supplies; more over there is no incentive to produce copper now when the copper can not be sold, and overburden the market with the unsold product
 The shutting down of the Tyrone plant has little effect on the employ ment situation in that camp, however, as practically all of the force of min CTS have been producing ore for the mill have been placed on development work, which will be pushed to the ut most, and the company proposes to maintain it's policy of placing in em- plOyment all returned soldiers who left there for the world war.
 At the present time testing is being done in the big mill which will prob ably result in the remodelling of the mill for more efficient service when it is ready to start again. The shut ting down of Tyrone at this time is the first step towards making it a more permanent and substantial camp when the copper market conditions warrant
 In the meantime, the mine force is being retained on development work, even though the cost of such work is higher now than it would be at a later date.
