New Cses for Copper.

Bisbee, Ariz., Sept EFF you
can't find a market for your pro-
duct, make one. This is the un-
derlying principle of a new volun-
tary organization recently formed
in the Arizona copper district.
For months copper has been a
drug on the market. There is d
surplus Of metal and the great cop
per mining industry Of this state
has stagnated; men have been
thrown out of employment: great
pieces of expensive machinery are
lying idle and depreciating in val
ue without producing anything for
the owners.
Now comes the Copper and Brass
Research organization. headed by
r. L. Agassiz. president Of the
Calumet and Hccla Mining COM
pany and numbering among its
members virtually all the great
copper mining companies OF the
United States.
The purpose of the organization
is to create new nses for copper so
that the surplus now on the mar
ket may be cleaned up and de-
mand created for the ore still un-
derground.
One new use for copper is eX-
pected to be found in Arizona next
year if plans for adapting copper
for use in manufacture of auto
mobile license plates materialize. 1t
also is proposed to use copper
plates in marking automobile
highways.
