COMEBACK LIKELY
IN NINE INDUSTRY
Revival of Interest in the Mena Min
ing District Indicates Developments
Of Real Worth May Start in the
Near Future.
tBy Robert NJ. Berry,


Unless someone is badly fooled the
Aena mining district is soon to stage
a comeback that will result in devel-
opments of real worth. Recent indi-
cations are to the effect that revival
Of interest is at hand that will put
the local mining industry once more
IN the forefront.
Despite the fact that the closing of
the war put crimp in fancy prices
for manganese and the big boom in
Texas oil attracted the attention of
spectators, there are those who have
never lost faith in the future of the
Mena district
One of the most promising signs
Of future development was the pres
ence in Msna of j. A. Beam, chemist,
assayer. and inventor of the Beam
system of ore extraction. Mr. Beam,
whose headquarters are at Denver,
came to the Mena district on the invi-
tation of w. A. Arlington, president
OF the Texa- Mena Mine, Milling &
Development Company. At consid-
cradle expense the company kept Mr..
Beam busy on its holdings, getting
samples of ore and Investigating con-
ditions thoroly.

This Week It's Important.

Special to The Star
Little Rock, June 12.-There may
not be 10 per cent of the people of the
state who could tell you, off-hand,
what county Boxley is in. And yet
Boxley is just now quite important in
the geography of the state. It doesn't
detract from its Importance in the
least that Boxley is little more than
a wide spot in the road up in Newton
county, the only county in the state
that has not foot of railroad
And yet both the acting Governor
Of the state. and the acting Commits
sioner Of Agriculture this week claim
Boxley as their home.

which has been the Mussulman cap

which has been the Mussulman CAPT
tai for centuries.
Concessions might be granted per-
hitting the allies to maintain a pro-
tectorate over Palestine-but that is
as far as the Turks will go.
The most surprising thing is the
fact that the Turkish government has
used American missionaries as its
tools in LAYING this message before
the perez conference.
The sultani agents have made
pleasant Promises to the missionaries
that they will be good if Turkey is
left intact, that some sort of auto
mony under Turkish suzerainty will
be granted to Armenia, and that
Christians will be permitted complete
freedom of worship in future.
It's form Of propaganda taught the
Turks by their German masters. The
American missionaries-who have al
ways been well treated, even patron
lied, by the Turks, particularly in
Constantinople--are said to have beer
much impressed by the agreement
and to have gone to Paris with plea
that the allies be easy on the sultan
lest he turn loose his assassins once
more on the defenseless Armenian
Christians.
The Armenian delegation at Paris
is exerting every influence to offset
the effects of this propaganda limo
Gently abetted by American citizens.
The big Four" has already COM
mitted itself, officially or unoficially,
to the proposition of freeing Armenia
under the mandatory of the United
States, and it is not likely that the
Turkish threat will brighten them.
On the other hand, it is more likely to
bring about the other course that has
been suggested the proposal that
America take a mandatory over Tur-
key as well as Armenia.

sary. The Executive Committee has
fixed the amount at $4,000, half Of

among the counties outside of Pulas-
XII, and the other half to be raised by
Pulaski county. The details and the
quotas will be worked out and placed
in the hands of the county chairmen
in few days It is hoped and be-
lieved that this money will be quickly
and cheerfully subscribed. But the
money must be forthcoming, so that
every county may be shown at its
best. We have been dreaming and
talking of Arkansas wonderful re-
sources and now we are coming into
our own. This movement was initi-
ated by Governor Brough and it is a
state affair with the capital Of the

eminent financing of Americas for

pre-war course of private financing

of Commerce in New York, who ad-
dressed the International Trade Con-

advocated as other measures of re-

greatest possible conservation of the
results of that work. and the inter-

solution through a reduction of oul

full opportunities to young men who
