USE COPPER AND BRASS
HELP METAL PRODUCERS
STRONGLY ORGANIZED MOVE
MENT TO STIMULATE DEMAND
FOR METALS.

A movement has been started by the
Copper and Brass Research commit
tee, having headquarters at 81 Broad
way, New York, the purpose Of which
is to increase the use of copper and
brass 1t is proposed to inaugurate
an extensive advertising campaign for
the purpose of enlightening the peo-
pie upon the value Of these metals for
many uses not now generally recos-
nized, and as a preliminary step to
this campaign an exhaustive research
into the present and possible uses Of
copper and brass and the relation of
these metals to other metals and ma
terials has been undertaken. ques-
tionnaire has been sent out by the
committee to determine to what ex-
tent copper is used for building pur-
poses, such as roofing, cornice, gut
ters and down pipes; the use of brass
in plumbing: the use of copper for
kitchen utensils. If these metals are
not used for these purposes, it is de-
sired to know what metals or mater
ials are used. Suggestions are de-
sired that win lead to a larger use Of
these metals. which are practically
everlasting and are non-rusting
Help Mining Industry.
This movement by the committee
should and doubtless will receive the
cordial support of the people in the
mining districts of the west partic-
ilarly, as its success means an ever
expanding market for copper and zinc
and consequent stimulation of mining |
activity The Importance of the move
nent and the ability Of the promoters |
20 carry it out successfully is indicat- /
% by the fact that representatives of /
most of the great copper producing |
companies are on the committee. as

making industry Following is the

THE DEADLY PARALLEL.

(Mining Congress JournaD
On the day that the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor issued its circular
appeal to its members to nominate
and elect trades union members to
public office, basing the appeal upon
a statement that the rights of labor
have been interfered with by the
present holders of political place."
facts were made public showing that
from 1917 to 1920 the railroad en-
ployes received advances in wages
amounting to more than $1,000, 900. 600
and that demands now before the ad-
justment board aggregate another
billion. The cold and heartless crush
ing out Of labor's rights by the rail-
road administration has been partic-
ularly noticeable

METAL MARKET.

Following is the review Of the metal
market by the Engineering and Min
ing Journal for the week ending
April %.
Transportation difficulties continue
to act as a brake on the metal market.
Little metal can be moved in any di-
rection, and the situation is much
worse than is indicated in the news
papers Consumers are not interested
and are keeping out of the market.
Copper continues quiet, with a firmer
undertone. Lead and tin are erratic,
and zinc continues weak.
Silver.
The market has shown little fluc-
tuation for the last week, until the
27th when under the pressure Of
China selling and continental offer
ings, the London price dropped to
esd, and New York to Slip.
Lead.
Heavy pressure was brought to
bear on the market during the last
three days Of last week, and a con-
siderable amount was sold in the
neighborhood Of SIC, St Louis on
Monday. however, the market seemed
to recover its position of the early
part Of last week, and a fairly large
tonnage of desilverized lead was sold
at a price which netted close to sac,
St Louis In the past two days prac-
tically no business has been done.
Prompt lead commands a premium,
and in cases where delivery can be
made. almost any price within reason
can be obtained for small lots.
Zinc.
The market remains very quiet
still brings about s1zc.,
New York, and the European demand
is-very good particularly for France.
Copper.
Again this last week practically no !
copper has been sold by the big pro-
iucers. Most of the small lots which !
could be delivered have been picked |
ip. and during the last three days a
'rmer tendency has existed. Domes-
ic consumers. feeling that copper will |
soon he sold for export under the pro-
posed credit arrangements, have been |
pricling mp their ears little, taking |
'are to see that a sudden export de-
nand with a possible attendant in

NORTH STAR
Company Will Resume Development
At An Early Date.


At An Early Date.
c. w Dougherty. secretary and
manager of the North Star Mining &
Development company stated this
week that meeting would soon De
called to fill vacancies on the board
of directors and to resume develop
ment work Work suspended during
the war The property is situated on
Nine Mile the dump being near the
Marsh min at Black Cloud. The first
thing to be done before starting work
underground is the construction Of a
trestle across the road to provide
dump The former trestle was torn
down by the county some time ago
and Mr. Dougherty. acting for the
company. has requested the county
commissioners to rebuild the trestle
It appears that the trestle was built
in the first place with the consent Of
the county commissioners and under
the circumstances the company feels
that it should be restored at the ex-
pense Of the county.

one hundred years from now, or
considerably less, people will look
back upon the heating and lighting
methods in vogue in 1920 as marvels
Of crudity and rawness. That is, if
the scientists succeed in keeping up
the rate of progress they have shown
within the last generation. Some of
the most learned and progressive of
them just now are studying a plan
for mObilizing the power production
of a large section of territory between
Boston and Washington. 1.-The idea
is to link UP all of the efficient cleo
trical plants in this region, whether
operated with water or coal. Long
distance transmission is now entirely
feasible. BY connecting these plants
it will become possible to create a
great reservoir of electrical energy
which may be tapped as required at
any hour of the day and in any part of
the territory"
Under such a system coal would
not be brought out of the mines at
all. 1t would be fed from the veins
directly into furnaces and converted
into electrical energy. Instead of
carrying coal to the cities at a ire
mendous expense to be burned under
costly furnaces with a sickening waste
of heat and smoke. people would dis
tribute it by electric wire. The rail-
roads and all the big industries will
be operated by electricity. This is as
suming. of course, that the 1. w. WIS
don't toppie civilization over and
paint the world red.

WOOD RIVER STRIKE.
Believed To Be Extension of Famous
Minnie Moore.

Believed To Be Extension of Famous
Minnie Moore.
An smportant strike was reported
Friday in the Lark mine. five miles
below Bellevue two and one-half feet
Of high grade milling ore having been
encountered in the shaft at the $50
foot level. according to a HALEY dis
patch.
The report caused considerable ex-
citement and all vacant ground in the
vicinity Of the Lark property is being
staked.
The mine was recently taken over
by Frank Johnesse Of Boise under
lease and bond who put a crew OF
men at work The strike was unex-
pected as it was generally held by
miners that ore would not be found
above the 2O0-foot level
The new strike is believed to be
the extension Of the famous Minnie
Moore ledge. Crosscutting will be
started at once to develop the extent
Of the ore body.
