Answering call for continued and extended service, now being sounded by millions of new friends and ad- herents because f its successful war relief work in France, the Salvation Army in the United States has made long and rapid stide forward. As a result of an executive council meeting in New York, attended by provincial and divisional officers of the country, epoch making changes in the opera tions of the army has been decided upon.
 Because soliciting aims by means of the tambourine will henceforth be an unwarranted waste of time and an imposition on the public, which now recognizes and endorses it's work, the Salvation Army has formally abandoned its old time methods for gleaning funds. This is the most radical departure made by the organ ization in its thirty-six years of work in America. Hereafter one big eff fort will be made each year to col lect necessary funds, leaving the Sal vationists, who, including officers and adherents, number nearly A million trained relief workers in Am erica at liberty to concentrate on works of mercy upon a greatly in- creased scale. To that end the Sal vation Army has decided upon an in- dividual drive in May, with 10 mil lion-dollars as the goal. When the drive is ended the time honored tam bourine and the free will offering boxes, which have characterized the Salvation, Army in America for So many years, will disappear.

BIG COPPER COMPANIES
 AND THE VICTORY LOAN

Bisbee, May 8. The inability of the mining companies to subscribe as heavily as usual to the Victory Loan is causing the mining communities difficulty in living up to their quotas, as their quotas are largely based upon the amounts raised in the other four loans. 2
 With the copper companies the pro- blem is now conservation of cash, in order that operations may be main- tained and their employees given con- tinuous work. They are facing a ser ious situation in the production of copper without ready market, and in some cases the production at cost higher than the present market val ues. Until this situation is relieved by a sale of the copper, there will be millions of dollars tied up in the red metal. .
 Had the companies subscribed as heavily as formerly to the Victory Loan, it would have meant further curtailing of opetations, more men out of employment, and general de- crease of prosperity.
 The officials of the Phelps Dodge corporation have found way of over- coming this difficulty and yet of as- sisting the various communities in which the company operates to meet their quotas, by alloting a percentage of their personal subscriptions to the credit of these communities. These subscriptions are in addition to the amounts subscribed by them in New York City, and are as follows:
 $80,000-Dank of Bisbee, Cleveland H. Dodge.
 $25 ,0OO-Miners & Merchants Bank, Bisbee, James Mclean
 $70,000-Bank of Douglas, Cleve- land H. Dodge
 5,000-First National Bank, Douglas, James Mclean
 0,000-Prescott State Bank, Ar thur c. James
 $35, ,00O-Gila Valley Bank & Trust Co.,, Morenci, Arthur c. James.
