MINES ASK COUNTY
 AID FOR UNEMPLOYED

BISBEE, April 3Ot-To arrange if possible to give employment to unem- ployed men of the Warren District and other mining camps of the coun- try, committees of the miners of the Calumet and Arizona and of the Cop per Queen companies met last night with committee of the Warren Dis trict Commercial Club and appointed a joint committee to draw up a reso- lution asking the governor to arrange for the immediate expenditure of money allotted to Cochise county for road work under the omnibus bill and of $57,000 that the state owes the county on account of money borrowed.
 Under the omnibus bill the county is allotted $80,000 for road work, which, with the $57,000 owed to the county by the state, would make $137,0O0 available for the employment of men on road work. The commit tees estimated that this sum would be sufficient to take care of the unem- ployed men of the district for many months to come.

FURTHER DEVELOPMENT
 OF THE ANTLER PLANNED

L. B. Rutter, accompanied by Mrs. Rutter and the children, was up from the Antler mine this week looking after the affairs of the Newby Mines company, being in the employ of that company as general manager. L. B. Newby has been expected at the min es for some weeks but with his par ties was detained in New York. He will arrive here soon and expects to prosecute further development on the mines. It is understood that N. B. Boner, who has been working on the Antler mines, will look over prop erty in the Verde valley for MT. New by, who has the taking over of the mine there in view.
 The Antler is one of the most im- portant properties in the Wallapai range and it is to be hoped that big plant will be placed on it and that op- erations will be carried to at least the 500 foot level. This mine carried im- portant bodies of high grade copper in all the openings.

country has entered upon the period of declining prices, which is reflected by the fact that wages of men in in- dustries other than the railroads have been and are going down. To quote from an official Santa Fe statement:
 Railroad men were fully entitled to increased wages to meet the rising prices of living and the higher wages paid in comparable industries during the war period. Decision No. of the United States Railroad Labor Board, issued on July 20, 1920, which estab- lished a scale of rates retroactive to May 1, was predicated on the reason ableness thereof, considering theehigh costs of living. These high costs have receded and it is an economic necessity, if this railroad is to con- tinue to operate, that there shall be a downward trend in wages paid. The increases in rates granted by the In terstate Commerce Commission, which it was hoped would offset the increase in payroll costs of the railways, have not borne their expected fruit. h. dustrial activity has been slowed up, men have been thrown out of employ ment, and the volume of freight has decreased to an alarming extent. Un- der such abnormal conditions it is inn possible to set aside sufficient funds to provide the public with adequate service and pay our obligations"

NEW WAGE SCALE
 PUT IN BY [. & A.

The new wage scale that is to be put into effect by the Calumet and Arizona and Phelps Dodge companies, at all their mines is considerable cut from the rate established the first of the year. Under the new scale min CTS getting $5.10 are reduced to $4.5O; those getting $4.60 will get $4.OO. The. other reductions are as follows: $3.6O to $3; $3.35 to $2.85; $3.1O to $2.7O; $2.95 to $2.6O; $2.70 to $40; $2.45 to $2.20. All salaried employees are to receive five per cent above the base rate, which is a large reduction from the last year rate. Men receiving say $137.50 will get but $105.00 under the new scale. These cuts are rather heavy, the men not being able to get by on their present wage, it is said. It is possible that there may be a more equitable adjustment, but the companies claim that they are reduc- ing the wage for the purpose of stringing out the money that has been set aside for upkeep and new work during the shutdown so that more men may be kept at work. If the new rate is acceptable many more men will be put to work. The copper companies are trying to keep every possible man at work, but the direc- tors have only set aside a certain fund to maintain the properties dur ing the temporary shutdown and when a resumption of work is undertaken a new wage scale will be put in eff feet, it is said. .-..

WHY NOT FORM
 A WESTERN LEAGUE

From time to time the Appeal has advocated a western league of con gressional members to protect the in- terests of the people, this side of the Rockies. Such a movement was pos sible, and now comes the announce ment that the westerners have band ed together to put over anti-Japanese legislation.
 There are other problems to the west just as important as the Japan csc question, and to many of the in- ter-mountain states perhaps more per tinent. Irrigation, mining, precious metal laws and other projects that are annually set aside by the majority on the eastern side of the big divide, all because of lack of unity on the part of the members from the west.
 It has been possible to form a league to fight the Japanese invasion, mainly in California. While this league is in the making it had better clan and take up the other proposi- tions. Let the west drop political and party lines for one session of con gress, get together on a solid vote on what the ywant and the east will take the drubbing of a century. The trouble has been that party was serv- ed first and the west overlooked. The conditions could be reversed and the whole of the> people would soon look to congress to put through advantag- eous legislation.
 Should the League of the West real ly function the question of money for reclamation would be solved; should an attempt be made to repeal the Pitt man silver act it could be handled, they could be put over with the com bination of a solid front of western representatives.
 There is many an eastern and southern project that gets the support of the western representatives, which, without their aid, would be killed off. Once let the people of the east and south find that the west had an or ganization, irrespective of party, on mutual and interstate projects, and there would be some lively scrambling to get the western support.

CRAZY TIMES

Strike and the world strikes with you, work and you work alone; our souls are ablaze with Bolshevik craze, the widest that ever was known. Groan and there1l be a chorus, smile and you make no hit, for we've grown long hair and we preach despair and show you daily fit. Spend and the gang will cheer you, save and you have no friend; for we throw our bucks to the birds and ducks and borrow from all who'll lend. Knock and you'll be a winner, boost and you'll be frost; for the old sane ways of the pre-war days are now from the program lost. Strike and the world strikes with you, work and you work alone; for we'd rather yell and raise blue hell than strive for an honest bone. Rant and you are lead er, toll and you are a nut; twas a bitter day when we pulled away from the old time workaday rut. Wait and there'll be a blow-up, watch and you'll see a slump, and the fads and crimes of these crazy times will go to the nations dump.-N. Y. Sun.

COPPER SURPLUS OVER
 ONE BILLION POUNDS

Strength in the copper shares is doubtless reflection of the belief that the closing of the large copper mines will hasten an improvement in the price of the metal and thus place the companies again on a paying basis. But at the current rate of consump- ,tion, in conjunction with the large sur plus, it will take many months to re- tduce the surplus, to a normal figure. { In fact, it was the result of an in- ,vestigation of the total surplus by the producers that lead to the closing of the mines and it is understood that the surplus today is over 100000, ,00O pounds in this country alone. The European surplus is not known but in view of the enormous tonnage of scrap copper that has been shipped
 back to this country for refining it lis believed that the war copper has been pretty we'll taken care of.
 With the surplus hanging over the market the future of the copper in- ,dustry was very black especially since of the 50 per cent production of
 capacity only 60 per cent was being consumed thus adding 40 per cent of the production to an already large : surplus.
 : Placing the curtailed production of copper at 1000, 100000 pounds per an mum there were being curtailed add ed to surplus 400,OO0,0OO pounds per annum leaving 600,0OO,0OO to be con- sumed. On the monthly basis, there !, fore, the consumption was approxi- mately 50,O00,000 pounds.
 | With the production now running at around 25,0O0,0O0 pounds per month [ the surplus, with mines closed, should be reduced to the extent of around . 25,000,000 pounds per month, or at the annual rate of 30O,O00,0OO pounds, of course the current rate of con- sumption is the lowest for years and any improvement in general business will add to the activity in the reduc- , tion of the surplus.
 The low price of which copper is selling should in itself stimulate con- { sumption, especially if there is any increase in general business activity, yet the large surplus now on the mar , ,ket may prevent any marked advance in the price, so that the mines that
 have remained open will not obtain much advantage over those that have closed.
 The companies that have closed are
 unlikely to hold the bag for the oper- ating concerns and are likely to offer all the copper needed at going prices
 with the avowed purpose of cleaning
 up the surplus. Many months must
 pass before there is marked inroad
 into the surplus, and it will probably
 be six months before the mines now closed will consider the resumption of production.-Ealy Times.

AhALCANATED TO SOON
 BE RUNNING FULL CREW

E. A. Ritter, consulting engineer of the Oatman Amalgamated and Ari- zona Mossback mines, was in King man this morning. MT. Ritter has charge of the present development on the Amalgamated and while only a small force is being employed it is expected that the mine will soon be running under full crews. The drifts from the 600 level of the property for the purpose of getting under the good ore bodies that were opened on the 300 level. The company is well fi- nanced and expect to keep work go- ing to a successful conclusion.

BROKEN STEERING kNUCKLE . WRECkS CAR ON GRADE

Paul E. White suffered serious in- jury Monday nights coming down Goldroad hill when the steering knuckle of his machine broke, the automobile going over the grade into the rocks. His back was badly in jured and he suffered other. bruises and decorations. A passing car pick ed him up and carried him to King man, where he is now under the care of g physician. It is expected that no serious results will insue and that the injured man will soon be out again. The car was badly damaged.
