EXPECTED TO LIVE
THOUGH BACK BROKEN
HARRY WISE, LOCAL TAILOR,
SERIOUSLY INJURED IN
AUTO ACCIDENT.

Though his back is broken in two
places between his shoulders, as the
result of an automobile accident on
East Fourth street two blocks beyond
the city limits at O'Clock Wednes-
day afternoon, Harry Wise, local
tailor, has excellent chances for re-
covery, according to DR.. Kenneth l..
Partlow, who is attending him at st.
Peters hospital.
Unless a hemorrhage or some other
relapse occurs today. DR.. PartlOw
says Wise will live, though he will be
long time recovering. His injury
consist of the fracture Of the fourth
and fifth dorsal vertebrae, the fourth
being badly crushed. Dr.. Partlow
says, while large chip was broken
off the right side of the fifth.
Beside the injury to his back, Wise
also suffered four broken ribs on the
right side and was considerably cut
about the face and head. Strangely
enough. r. A. Lutes of Seattle. who
was driving the car. sustained only
few cuts and bruises. The machine.
an almost new Ford roadster, was
practically ruined.
The accident occurred when Lutes
apparently lost control of his ma
chine. He and Wise were driving to
Tacoma when, as they approached
within IS feet of Wilson street, two
blocks east of the city limits, the car
veered to the north and headed for q
telephone pole. Lutes applied his
brakes, the car skidded and then was
completely upset when rear wheel
was struck by Ford delivery car be-
longing to the Palace Market and
driven by Anthony Mulligan, which
was going toward Olympia.
Speed Cop Peterson. who investi-
gated the accident Immediately, alb
solves Mulligan of all b lame. He
had driven his car north out of Will
son street on to Fourth and was going
west on the proper side of the street,
the tracks of the machine. indicate,
Peterson says, when the driver of the
eastbound car lost control and the
machine veered into Mulligan's path.
Both Lutes and Wise were pinned
under the roadster. Witnesses Of
the accident removed them and they
were taken to St. Peters hospital for
treatment. Wise was unconscious
when picked up. but recovered con-
seriousness before reaching the hos
pital. though he has not been entirely
rational since.
Wise has conducted a tailoring es-
tablishment on East Fourth street for
several years and has wife and child.

acres last year, an average yield Of
12.l bushels per acre.
This is a larger production than
was generally thought possible on ac-
count of the prolonged drought" the

ONE MORE CHANCE
TO AID RED CROSS
BERS TO BE STAGED NEXT
MONTH.
Ry Marie Rowe Dunbar.

"All you need is a heart and dol
lar"
This is the call that the American
Red Cross is sending every man,
woman and child in Thurston county.
1t is a homely story and typically
American, that of the western miner
who took hold of bears tail and
found that he could not let go, but it
illustrates the position that the Red
Cross now finds itself in. at home and
abroad.
When the armistice came and long
after. when the treaty, and even to-
day and after, the work of the Red
Cross cannot be dropped. Things
had been begun, advanced, developed,
which could not be dropped. Had
the Red Cross sounded retreat there
would have been a howl of protest
from San Francisco to Jerusalem,
from the Red Cross workers and from
those whom they worked.
The brilliant record of the Red
Cross over there does not need review
ing. There is not person in Thurs
ton county-perhaps even the entire
worldwide does not know of the
brave and courageous work of the
American Red Cross in the battle
fields. in the hospitals and, yes. over
here.
Starting November End and contin-
uing until November 8 the American
people are going to have a small Op-
portunity to show their real graft
tude for this wonderful work. In
Thurston county. as in all other coun-
ties of the United States. from No
vember to IL, membership cam
paign known as the third roll call of
the Red Cross will be held. Every
one will be asked to give a dollar and
become an active member of the Red
Cross
What do they want with money,
now the war is over? is one of the
frequent questions. Visit the Home
Service Department of the Red Cross
in Olympia some time. See all the
people that come and gO-from the
soldier boy who wishes to have his
insurance fixed up to the deserted
wife who is asking for aid for her
little ones. The Red Cross in Thurs
ton county. through the Home Serv'
ice Department is continuing to
serve the soldiers and their families.
The reports from the Home Serv-
ice Department of the Thurston
county chapter of the American Red
Cross show that in this Olympia
Office more than 600 cases are han
died ecah month. Health and hap
piness are two of the big things that
the Red Cross is working for today
Minute women of this county have
been called together again and asked
by Mitchell Harris, chairman of the
Thurston county chapter. to take
charge of the Roll Call and secure
members for the Red Cross in this
county Miss Louise Dittman is the
able secretary of the Home Service
Department.
Sunday, November 2. it is planned
to have all the ministers in Olympia
speak a few words from the pulpit
for this worthy cause, to have the
Junior Red Cross put on services in
the Sunday school and to make No
vember End Red Cross Sunday.
So don't forget-all hearts beat
true for the Red Cross in Thurston
county. Remember. and save that
dollar.

ARIZONA PRODUCED ONE FOURTH 0F
 WORLD'S COPPER OUTPUT IN l9l8

Inasmuch as prosperity in the west is so closely indentified with prosper ous conditions in its basic industries such as mining, numbering, etc, the following review of copper mining sit uation by the Arizona Chapter of the American Mining Congress, is of par ticular interest at this time.
 The average cost of copper produc- ed in Arizona during 1918 is estimat- ed to be I'll cents per pound after crediting gold and silver values, de- ductiing operating expenses, depre- citation, taxes and making proper al lowance for ore depletion.
 The production of refined copper in U. s. from both domestic and foreign ores for 1918 was 2,4S9, ,4S0,0O0 pounds including 564, 4,4SO,O0O pounds import ed in ore, matte, blister, scrcap and alloys. Copper exported was 72S,- . 555,00O pounds, leaving balance for home consumption of 1,760,927 ,000 pounds.
 During 1915, 1916i and 1927, the United States average yearly con sumption of copper was 1,263 ,23s pounds. Assuming the same amount of copper was consumed during 1918 there is shown an increase over con sumption for the year of 97,6S9 ,000 pounds which, if added to 525, 100000 pounds of refined copper, blister and material in process of refining on hand January 1, 1918, we start the year 1919 with a stock of copper met al amounting to 1s022, ,000 pounds.
 Evaporation of copper to the Neither lands, Belgium, Germany and Austria Hungary, ceased in 1914. The United Kingdom, France and Italyl were the only countries in Europe receiving copper from the U. $. in 1918. Until 1915 copper was going to all of the countries of Europe from the U. S. at the rate of 9OO,OOO,OOO pounds a year since which time, according to re- turns of department of commerce Flu rope as received copper from the r. S. at average rate of 7S2, ,332, ,235 lbs. year, which figures show exports of metal to Europe have fallen for the period of 1916, 1917, and 1918, to the extent of 117,667,745 pounds a year. Our trade being cut off from the Netherlands, Germany and Austria Hungary for three years, it would be but fair to assume the immediate re- quirements of these countries would be that amount of copper which during the last three years they were un- able to purchase from us, amounting to 450,000,000 pounds year, which would help materially to decrease our
