 The output of lead in 1918 was 12,- 5O3,6S9 pounds, decrease from 23,- 465, ,445 pounds in 1917. As the price was only about 5 cents a pound in April 1919, and there was no great de- mand for the metal, there will prob. ably be further decrease in 1919. This statement also applies to the out put of zinc, which fell from 20,89!, ,S6O pounds of recoverable metal in 1917 to 2,269,643 pounds in 1918. The Ari- zona Hillside property, in Yavapai county, continues it's shipments of rich zinc sulphide ore. Good zinc ore was said to have been mined by Schuylleill company through the Tennessee mine formerly large producer of both lead and zinc.
 The dividends of Arizona mining companies were reduced considerably in 1919. The largest contributors were the Phelps-Dodge, Inspiration, United Eastern, Ray Consolidated. Arizona Copper, Iron Cap, Miami, and United Verde>.

pie of Weimar ut 4 10 this afternoon
that the German folk for the first time
in history had chosen the head Of their

many the plaudits formerly reserved
for the emperor of Germany, who had
once designated the members of the
party to which Ebert belonged as un-
worthy to bear the name of Germans.
The gallery resembled the reichstas
tribune Of olden days, with men and
women in gala attire jammed into ev-
cry available space. The voting by
ballot caused confusion as the dele
gates struggled along the narrow
aisles. Great crowds massed outside
during the session, awaiting patiently
in the cold for q chance to see the pres
ident as he left the building, which he
did Immediately after making brief
speech of acceptance.
The vote against him probably came
from the old conservative block and
Il few Of the independent liberals. An
nouncement of solitar- vote for Ma
thias Erzberger brought q laugh from
the house. which also laughed on the
second day of the session when he was
proposed for president. The national
assembly adjourned until Thursday.

One-third of the book is devoted TO

Germans possessed "a most efficient

continues: ,r.s.
