Higher Steel Price Average

The average price of eight principal
iron and steel products as quoted by
THE Iron Age" this week is SS4.91 a
gross ton, compared with S79.31 on
July 20 and $40 on June -. The pres
ent price marks a new high level for
the present movement. This week 5
advance is attributed to an increase in
the price of plate from 81 per 100
pound box on July 20 to SO box on
July 81. Other prices held unchanged.
On the Auto Situation
The Detroit office of E. w. Wagner
e. Co. has prepared a report on the
automobile situation in that district
which states that, while there has
been a slowing up, due chiefly to credit
restrictions to dealers, business con.
tinues prosperous. "A number Of
companies" continues the report will
report the best earnings in their his
tory in July. The course of the motor
industry depends entirely on the credit
situation There is no let-up in the
desire of people to buy motor cars.
The export business is good despite de-
preciated exchange. The Ford Motor
Company, beginning to-day, will start
scheduled production of 1000 cars
a day, as against 5000 for this fiscal
year The Continental Motor Com
pany officials say their July earnings
will be the largest in its history. Dodge
Brothers are adding men steadily and
say they can place any skilled labor
that other plants might lay off. The
Commerce Truck Company, one of the
smaller companies, is shut down. The
Federal Truck Company reports some
cancellations in orders in spite of the
fact that production has exceeded
schedule. The Timken Detroit Axle
Company reports production somewhat
curtailed but reduced expenses are ex-
pected to keep earnings up to antlcl-
pated figure Paige Detroit June earn
ings were at a rate in excess of 200
ner cert on the common stock Column
bia Motors has reduced production.
The Saxon Company is working on a
new model, producing between 10 and
20 cars day, has plenty OF orders
ahead, but is having trouble IN secur-
ing bodies"
Wheat Below Guaranteed Price
The sharp decline in wheat for fu-
ture delivery which has featured the
market for several weeks continued
Yesterday, when quotations in Chicago
for December got down to $2.2l,
cents below the grain admlnlstra-
tons guaranteed price of last year
This decline carried values Sd cents
under prices recorded on the first day
of the resumption of trading on the
Chicago Board Of Trade. Pressure of
cash wheat from the farms is given as
the reason for urgent selling.

the light CT experience, to work out
our own domestic problems. Under
our system of government, industries
and labor have progressed far beyond
those of any other nation. Quoting
from former Senator George Suther-
land of Utah: 1--WE have grown from
thirteen struggling, loosely related
communities of fishermen, planters
and traders, into forty-eight compact
commonwealths, knit altogether into
one great empire with bonds lighteV
than gossamer but more enduring
than steel'-and we are still growing
and shall continue to grow. Irre-
sponsibles shall not stampede us and
neither jelly fishes nor mad dogs shall
stop our peaceful and orderly prog-f
ress.
I believe in our country and its In
stitutions; believe that government
of the people, by the people and for
the people; shall not perish from the.
earth. My faith--the faith that ssSt1rS
passes even reason-in the loyalty,1
sanity and poise of our countrymen
is and shall forever be unshaken, Let
lis keep cool and get back to work
in unity, amity and tolerance for al
better, brighter and happier year inl
1920.
Permit me, through the medium Of
your publication, to extend to ms
many good friends in Arizona, felic
tations and sincere wishes for HAN
py and Prosperous New Year.

ROUGH ASHER CLUB PROVES BIG
SUCCESS; MASONS ENJOY meet

Mr.. M. o. Benscoe, also of Flor
ence, proved himself quite an orator,
and, among other things, mentioned
the fact that he was one of the
charter members of the former
Rough ASHER club which was in ex-
istence five or six years ago and
from which the present club chose
it's name. Mr.. Benscoe's remarks
concluded the program around the
festive board at which about one
hundred were seated, after which
dancing was INDUCED in.
This was most enjoyable and en-
tertaining affair and it is hoped
that the club may carry out it's pur-
pose of having other socials and so
be a factor for the good of the
community.
Many favorable comments were
made on the delicious repast which
was served under the efficient dt.
rection Of Mrs. Yenawine.

Americans in all the meanings that
term holds. Loyalty is the first tribute
we must unhesitatingly exact and
good citizenship is it's concomitant.
A spirit of unrest, following the
war, has become alarmingly evident,
and has manifested itself in a most
disturbing manner during the year
just drawing to close, through
strikes, acts of violence, and utter dis
regard of the rights of others. The
greatest source of apprehension, how
ever, is found in the assaults made up
on our government by those who seek
to destroy the established order of
things and substitute reign of an
archy and violence.
But despite the dark days through
which we as nation are passing, I
am not fearful Of the future. In fact,
I have always found turmoil, clamor
and strife to be the product of the
very few, and that the ark of our COW
enant is safe in the custody of those
who value the priceless heritage CIV
en- to us by our forefathers when they
framed that enduring document of
human rights and liberty, the Consti-
tuition Of the United States.
Clouds may darken the sky, the
winds of evil and discomfort blow
across the land, but the storm can at
best be merely temporary and the
damage transient. Despite these an
noyances we will go forward to our
destiny, fulfilling the great mission
God has entrusted to us, and knowing
that with His help our labors will not
be in vain
Arizona during, 1919 has enjoyed a
period of wonderful prosperity land

GUN CLUB HOLDS
final SHOOT OF

A large and enthusiastic crowd of
shooters and spectators gathered al
the gun club on Sunday afternoon,
December %, for the final shoot of
1919.
A very favorable atmospheric con-
dition existed and it was very inter-
esting to note the Improvement in
some of the participants.
A number of visitors were present,
among them, Judge Baughn, the "Poet
Laureate" of Pinal county, and Mr..
M. 0. Benscoe, the "Boy Orator."
Both of these gentlemen hail from the
county capital and did credit to them
selves for having made the score they
earned, for neither of them had preyi-
ously shot over the traps. They are
good on hunting live ducks, and with
little practice, promise to outrank
some of the old-timers at the traps.

present but they did not try, to shoot
Trap shooting is very interesting
and fascinating and after the first
"shyness" wears off, it seems to be-

WORK ONLY CURE FOR living COSTS;
DECLARESL. S. Gates IN DISCUSSION
Of NATIONS INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS
L. S. Gates in Arizona Mining journal

L. S. Gates in Arizona Mining Journal
We have emerged from the chaos of
war, weary, spent and nerve-racked.
We are in state of convalescence,
not having yet recovered from the
shock and our nerves are on edge.
Living costs are high and unfortun-
ately, the burden in many cases falls
pitilessly upon those least able to
bear it. The cause, plain to any man
who will face cold, hard facts, is the
operation of an immutable and mex
orable economic law when the demand
exceeds the supply Can prices come
down with less production at increas-
ing costs? Is it not plain that the
cure must be WORK which will bring
about the production of a normal sup
ply? Yet a few noisy loose-talking
charlatans offer a cure of this condi-
tion by less work, hence a lessened
supply, or no work and therefore no
production
This period Of distress has been
seized by the advocate of disorder and
destruction as propitious time for the
advancement of his poisonous propa-
ganda. He is the mad-dog of civiliza-
ton, running down the streets of or
.ganized society, frothing at the mouth,
swapping and snarling-and the cry of
"Mad-Dog'' is always terrifying even
in normal times. There is, however, a
cure for mad dogs.
We hear much ranting these days
about the sacred right to strike and
the constitutional protection against
involuntary servitude, but little of the
corresponding duties of all men to or
ganized society and government
unhesitatingly assert that no man has
either legal or moral right to refuse
to work when the consequence of his
idleness must be borne by those depen-
dent upon him; neither has he a right
to be supported in idleness by the
other members of society who, in all
good faith and conscience, work and
produce. We have laws furnishing idle
and disorderly conduct and vagrancy.
Is not the man who won't work at
fair and honest wage, an INDUSTRIAL
VAGRANT, often noisy and disorder
ly?
The foregoing observations should
not be taken as a gloomy view Of con-
ditions nor as typical of average condi-
tions. Fortunately this class of people
constitute very small part of our
citizenry, but unfortunately what they
lack in numbers, they make up with
the noise of their yells and snarls. Mad
dogs
AS to the future, am an unbounded
optimist We shall emerge from this
temporary hysteria with clear vision,
high purpose and richness of spirit
purified by the fire of experience. Con-
fident in the rectitude Of our conduct
which will right all wrongs and de-
velop our ideals, we know we need
have no fear Of the correctness and
Justice of our decision. have supreme
faith and belief in our government,
and the shrewd practical common
sense of our fellow citizens. We know
that we cannot violate the time-tested
basic rules of conduct which insure
success and stability without paying
the penalty. 1t simply can't be done.
We need no imported, devitalizing
doctrines, speculative and false in
