matter of an affinity but OF a recrea-
ton. For years the popular bank

counted.
But now it is announced that Mir,
Wise has joined the General and In
ternational Order of Autobugs and
qualified for membership by plrchas-
ing a car. 1t is truth and not rumor.
He say he has been considering the
question OF buying an automobile for
some time, and so he decided not to
pass up the opportunity OF a bargain

Famous Engineer
Sees Bright Future

John Hays Hammond. mining en-
gineer of international renown. is OPP
as to the future of the met
ais industry. He is at present visit
ing in San Francisco, and as his opin.
ions are generally considered reliable
the following interview is OF interest.
Mr.. Hammond is quoted as saying:
The gold mines have been hard
hit. not because of the price of the
metal but because the cost of work
ing the mines has increased. while the
price per ounce on gold has remained
the same. Other metals also were
adversely affected; the cost of work
ing the mines increased, while the
price of the metals fell.
Insofar as gold Is concerned. | can
not see much chance for a higher
price. although there has been con-
siderable agitation for a bonus. II
seems unfair to establish a price. as
the government has done, without
making allowance for the increased
cost of production. | can see no i'm
mediate redress for u grievance.
Insofar as the other mines are
concerned-copper, lead and the 9TH
er metals believe that better times
are ahead, but only when conditions
generally improve. General conditions
will not improve until this country
can relieve itself of the surplus prod.
ucts of its industry.
This relief will come only through
the exporting of these surplus prod
ucts, which is dependent upon making
arrangements to advance long-term
credits to European countries. not
through government agencies, but
through private channels"
