COLORADO SILVER
 MUCH IN DEMAND
China and India Offer Attractive
 Markets for Ore

Phoenix, Ariz., April 29.-Silver is king in Arizona. says c. P. Reniger, president of the Association of Arizona Mining Men. With the copper market stagnant as a result of the cessation of war requiremen the demands for white metal are pouring in from all corners of the globe. Many of the producers are replacing their copper handling equipment with plants to turn out silver.
 There is a big demand for silver in China and India" says George D. Bethuns, of Globe. The United States government is filling it at 8 an ounce the same price aC which it is supply ing 200, ,000,00 ounces of the metal to the British government on con- tract"
 Years ago when Tombstone was at the height of its fame, Arizona was a great silver producer. Then came the slump. Copper was discovered. Last year, according to the estimate of the United States geological survey Ari- zona produced $192, 2,OOO,000 worth of copper. Give us copper" was the cry from the United States and the Allies.
 With the armistice, conditions changed overnight. One billion pounds of copper, more than a third of which was Arizona production. are estimated to be awaiting sale, but cop- per is down and silver is up.
 Surveys of the state indicate that in the Prescott and Tucson mines siI- yer predominates over the other met als; in Bisbee, Jerome, Globe and Aio it's values as by-product run heavily.
 From the neighborhood of Prescott come reports of the revival of old sil- yer mines. Battle-Flat, scene of a sangu1nary Indian fight in the seven ties' is reported to have yielded new discoveries of silver and two fresh camps have been opened on this spur or the, northern slope of the Brad shaws.
 The official tables of the United States geological survey report a sil- yer production of $6,813, 900 In Ar,i- zona during 1918, but producers state that this does not represent anything like the total value of the white metal recovered.

DIPLOMATIC PROBE
 IS ON AT CAPITOL
Government Anxious to Learn Gov ernmcnt That Is So Friendly
 Towards Mexico.

Washington, April 29-Unusual t1ciaf circles as to the identity of the
 governments friendly to Mexico that
 have required the M exican foreign
 office to express an opinion on the as announced in official dispatches
 from Mexico City. The publication of
 the signatories to the league of na-
 tions covenant and the names of those
 nations invited to join the league
 caused officials to wonder what coun-
 tries had made inquiries of the Car
 ranza government on this matter. It
 was intimated in official circles that
 diplomatic investigations might be made.
 Officials pointed out that Argentina,
 C'hi1e Salvador, Colombia, Paraguay
 and Venezuela were the only Latin
 Am erican countries that did not
 break with Germany during the war,
 and it was said the governm ent friendly to Mexico mentioned by the Mexican foreign office might be among these.
 It is possible according to high official, a state as yet unrecognized by the United States and not invited to join the league made the inquiry ! The same authority stated Salvador as a, close ally of Mexico would not have made the inquiry because her policy would be largely dependent upon McXico's. Paraguay was e1im mated bcca lse of her isolated terri tory and lack of interest. Colon bia and Venezuela have on a number of occasions approved the application of the Monroe Doctrine, so it is con- sidered unlikely they sought the in- ormation.
 Thus the conclusion is that, if such an inquiry were actually made, ii probably came from Argentina and Chile. Both of these countries have been invited to join the league of nations and both have officially ex- pressed thei~ approval of the organ ization. The inclusion of the Mon- roe Doctrino in the covenant has not
 brought forth any protest from either country.

OMEN ARE SAVED
 BY FAMILY FIGHT
pflslnal Plans Called for Na-
 tlOnalizlng Hun8arians

hudapest, April 21, (Correspond- shce Of the Associated Press. Ut was uue 10 a family quarrel that Hun s1fy escaped having it's women com III olllzed after the fashion of the russian republic" of Saratoff rather tnan to abhorrence of Bella Kun to lhe system, as the latter afterwards stated.
 The law to communize women was |s sactualiy framed and in the printers k sdands ready for publication, when * lderr Neltner, one of the cabinet of young men who are now ruling the Iate of the former kingdom went Rome for supper. During the meal pe told his wife and his mother-in-law
 glowing terms about the projected sAforrns
 What are you doing for women ?'' they asked.
 M Neither then explained that in the 1Hture women will be free too, that shey will be permitted to choose their YMn husbands and discard them if they liked by simple process of paying a few. crowns for a legal paper declar- flfg Atheir 'unfitness" for married life. Further conversation developed the tact4 that the new law also gave hus- AftndS the same right; that children might be turned over to the care of she state so that both husband and Wife would get rid of the duties and Responsibilities of rearing their off Hpring. Do you mean to tell me shat pou can get rid of me from one rIay, to another and marry the next day ii you like?' demanded young 3nffau Weltner. k "That's how the law stands" re- Mlied the husband.
 tA Then the storm broke. Both wife aaatts mother -in-law began to scream iasaa a frehzied scene ensued the up- shot Of which was that the woman denfanded that Weltner should get the law stopped or they would leave him xtt orce and would moreover get all the wives, mothers, and mothers-in- Jaw of all the ministers to Go the same.
 Weltner in the interest of his home comfort and peace eventually prom iissd to do his best and use his infiu- ence with his fellow members through his lpaper, The Peoples Voice. to get the law rcscinded. He went to the telephone and had a conversation with Bella Kun and other members and then called up the printers tell ing them that no proofs needed to be -+ipulIed" from the forms where the ]aw.4lay. He also ordered that the type should be melted up and the copy destroyed.
 1t was thus then that the law died.

SAVE THE BABIES,'
 SLOGAN IN FRANCE
25O,OOO French Children Bene-
 fitted by American Red Cross

Paris. April 29 Correspondence of The Associated Press. )-"Saye the Ina hies" 7" is the m essage that has beep taken into the remote towns and will Iages of Is departm ents of France bv +he Cshildren's Bureau of the Ameri- can Red Cross
 France is considered second to none in scientific knowledge of infant well fare; but hitherto that knowledge has been largely confined to her medical schools, her hospitals, and to the minds of her child specialists. It need cd to be taken right into the homes. if France was to save her coming gen eration.
 To combat ignorance of the prih- ciples of child hygiene on the part of French mothers. to popularize fresh air and clean teeth. to preach the truth that tuberculosis is preventable.. to encourage breast feeding and sen- sible clothing for infants, was the task which the American Red Cross. r months. ago. set itself to perform. The result is, as the bureau statis- tics show, that 250,OO0 French chi1- dren have directly benefited by the efforts of this section of the American Red Cross.
 1t organized four great expositions in four of the busiest cities of France Lyons, Marseilles, St. Etienne and Toulouse. Three hundred thousand persons went through the turnstiles of these shows, and they took home every piece of the child welfare liter ature that they could obtain.
 Travelling expositions next went into Is French departments. They gave simple lectures and demonstrations with 8 1ife-size baby doll in the town hall or the market place, and with the aid of their own cinema and a supply of picture cards and colored posters told the mothers how the health and welfare of their offspring might be promoted. Nearly two million pieces of child welfare propaganda were thus distributed, with the gratifying result that in many instances mothers re- turned to the show to tell that they had benefited by this or that piece of advice given by Hes Americains."
 Finally, the bureau has trained young French women as social vlsi- tors and sent 48 of them out among their own people. In Lyons, Mar seilles, Corbeil, Blois St. Etienne and Paris they are doing intelligent and constructive social work beginning at the home itself, where they are en- deavoring to instil modern methods of child hygiene and the prevention of disease.
 Another feature of the activities of the Children's Bureau has been the establishment of children's play grounds. start has been made at Rouen; where two playgrounds have been inau'gurated for the use of chiI- dren between the ages of and t3. The workers are Miss Jane G. Hen nessey, who has had seven years ex- perience as a playground teacher in New York City. and Miss Beulah Ken nard, a member of the faculty of New York University, and for twenty years president and superintendent of the Pittsburgh Playground association.

GOVERNMENT MUST
 GIVE COOPERATION
Failure to Do So Will Be Serious,
 Peek Declares

St. Louis, April 29.-Refusai of government agencies at this time to cooperate in the movement to stabil- , ize prices at q lower icNel, based on scientific determination of costs and a proper consideration of all ln- terests involved, would be fraught with grave consequences to the coun- try, George N. Peek, chairman of the industrial board of the depart ment of commerce declared in an address here today before the annual convention of the U. $. Chamber of Commerce.
 Referring to Director Gen. Hines refusal to accept the schedule of steel prices agreed upon between the industrial board and representatives of the industry as a level for rail- road administration purchases, Mr Peek declared the real motive' :or MT. Hines action was not his objec- tiOn to the prices as too high but ills disapprOVal of the course of the board in "approving prices based on cost studies rather than calling Sel- lers and government buyers together and permitting the best possible bar gains by bidding.
 The course desired by MT. Hines said MT. Peek would mean such a locating down. of prices as would force either a general reduction in wages or a diversion of the entire business of the railroads to one or two powerful low cost producers. The railroad administration, he said, by it's great purchasing power m rails could ''practically control the market and the prces.'
 The industrial board, said MT. PeeN' did not seek to "inpOse' upon the railroad administration a Schedule ol prices that were deemed too high by the director general
 Representatives of the railroad ad- ton, he continued, have been urged to bring forward any facts which would assist the board in reaching a conclusion on prices lower than those approved and never has this urging proved fruitful. The answer of the railroad administration has ever been, as it is today that the prices at which the railroad admins tration is to buy is within it's own discretion
 MT. Peek defended the boards price agreement policy against Mr. Illness objection that it gives i'm nunity from the operation of anti trust laws to the industries involved. Any producer MT. Peek pointed out, is free to sell at higher or lower prices than those agreed upon in 8 particular industry. Such a price, he contended, Is mot a mbnation at all, and even if it were the result achieved is certainly a fit field for the application of reason.'' The course suggested by the railroad admins tration, he said, means a utilization of the combined buying power of the government that would entail the very sort of monopolistic result con- demned by the Sherman act.'' Government agencies must give up some customs and practices of the past, said Mir. Peek and sacrifice Ad- vantages such as competitive bidding to serve the interest of the entire na- ton in solving the price stabilization problem.'

Elevens of oath and 25th
Infantries Clash Today

1t should be some game, the clash
between the elevens representing
tn football teams of the Oath and25th
Infantry football teams at the post
this afternoon.
All hands are ready for the fray,
the grid iron has been placed in tip
top shape and the players are ex-
pecting one of the hardest games
yet experienced between membrs of
the service.
According to officers of the
25th, the great Army and Navy
game of the year played at the
"Point or at Annapolis has nothing on
the games that the material of the
oath and 25th are dishing up. The
men of both teams are in fine form,
the back lines are especially strong,
and just to take peek at the hus-
kies is enough to convince one that
it's going to be pretty hard matter
to make any kind of gain.
If there's a bit of jazz left in the
old hides let's get out and root for
some regular football this afternoon.
If you can't go, let the clerks go
anyhow. It's bound to be big game
and is we'll worth the 25c that the
boys are asking as the admission
