RICH IN MINERAL FOR
 PROSPECTOR

There is every indication to be- lieve that the Colorado River Indian reservation, which is to be thrown open to mineral exploration on No vember 1, will bring into the coun- try a horde of prospectors, miners and operators this winter" said Howard C. Bramwood yesterday, who is in the city from the Quartz site section, where he is preparing to resume on his quartz holdings. Mir. Bramwood added;
 This action of the interior de- partment is not generally understood in the wide scope of country to be opened or the wonderful possibilities of the niineralized area set aside, particularly i'll its placer mining fea- lures. Thousands of acres have been lying untouched for years on account of exploration being prohib- tied and entry thereto has been barred on account of the Indian res ervation.
 T believe that the caliche or ce- ment deposits east of Ehrenberg, az gregating over six miles square, and the auriferous formations further up the river on the Arizona side, will be swarming like a beehive. With the known quartz conditions all these thousands of acres are in virgin state, and 1t certainly seems an allur- ing proposition for the adventure some. as well as the bona fde min ing men, to go in and take chance.
 The weather is becoming ideal, and such an opportunity to get an chored to a new field has never be- fore been presented. The placer gold is there beyond doubt, the old Indians know it, but they will not handle the yellow metal as they still cling to the traditional hatred for this mineral as an evil omen which has been inspired by those in the happy hunting grounds"

to the last analysis, is what the labor
group demanded.
The resolution to define collective
bargaining prccipitatcd the question of
the open shop.
It was, quoting an employers speech
can attempt to cram union labor down
our throats.'
The employers group made conccs-
sions. They recognized the right of
labor to organize, TO bargain collectively
and to choose their own representatives
to confer with employers. At the same
time they demanded the right to de-
eide whether or not they should meet
"outsiders." labor representatives who
were not in their employ.
The labor group refused to accept this
proviso, and there the conference came
to standstill.
Against the employers group the
charge has been brought that il was
fighting the battles of Judge Gary and
the steel corporation.
1t is true that the position of Judge
Gary comedies with the view of the
majority of the employers group. but
it does not influence them wholly. They
had already been convinced.
Protecting Small Employer
There are over 100000 employers of
labor in this country. Eighty five per
cent of them employ less than 20O
men.
1t was these, the employers say, they
were protecting. There was another

One great mistake is being made by
the employers. They underestimate the
strength Of the radical and anarchistit
movement in this country.

he declared was labor's secret reason
Tor urging the conference to adopt n
collective bargaining resolution.
He read from the proceedings of the
thirty ninth annual convention of che
American Federation of Labor at At
lantic City in June last. the following
Resolved, That we disapproye and
condemn all such company unions and
advise our membership to have nothing
to do with them, and,
Resolved, That we demand the right
to bargain collectively through the only
kind of organization fitted for this pur =
pose. the trade union. and that we stand
loyalty together until this right is con
Ccdcd us.

Mr.. Loree added that the federation
was striking at shop committees and
plant unions. The employers were
standing for the open shop and the
privilege of bargaining with repreScn :
tativcs of their people and this would
be their attitude to the end.

This was the signal for the fnal

ton. Frederick F. Fish, one of the
principal speakers for the employers
group, instantly protested against the
resolution. The crux of his argument
was that it was an attempt, slightly
changed ms to words, to force the con -
ference to recognize the right OF EN-
pOyes to organize for collective bar
gaining without any specifications or
definitions. If the resolution was
adopted, the impression would go out
to the country that the unionizatlon OF
plants and industries was to be forced
upon the employers.
A. A. Landon, of the peoples group
spoke for the resolution, expressing the
! opinion that the United States Stee
Corporation was Il public nuisance and
should be suppressed, and that labor
leaders were also nuisance who should
also be suppressed.

and that Endicott had acted in very
