WOMAN CLUB COMMITTEE MAKE JAIL INSPECTION

A committee from the Woman's Club was invited to inspect the jail and premises before uuy cleaning rp was done.
 A member of the comm ttee saiG '1t is impossible to discribe the filth and sanitary conditions, existing there. In the cells for women, there were no cots, only few filthy blank. cts; windows were broken and wat, CT running all over. The mems cells were even worse.
 The Board of Supervisors have agreed to have the place cleaned plumbing repaired, and new cots and beddinge has been ordered.

in less than year, so sure were they of their preparation and plans But at the end of this time the fight was only fairly started, and the copper they had prepared was shot away with their object still unachieved, so they had to resort to any means pos sible to secure a new supply. It is estimated they secured about 200 900 tons from roofs, bells, locomotive fire boxes, house finishing, ,utinsils, etc. Austria Hungary contributed in like manner and Belgium was robbed of every pound available in any form.
 Big Stock in United States
 The United States was working every copper mine, big and small to supply the demand made by the Allies for the metal and when we finally joined the forces against Germany there was still greater need for cop per, and We strained to meet it. The ending of the war, this being earlier than had been anticipated, found i'm mense stocks in the hands of tue U. S. government, for which the produc- tion had been made, and which set the price at 26 cents a pound, high enough to permit good profits and get every deposit of copper ore and copper rock going to it's limit Better than a billion pounds were on hand, and the government pulled away it's purchases in the market. The price slumped to 14 cents and at this the sales were not as heavy as were ex
 pected. The foreign countries that had been heavy buyers in pre-war times had no credit here. Their mon ey fell in value to almost nothing as compared with the American dollar and this discrepancy i'll exchange rates still seriously affects the cop per industry. There is still a surplus of about one-half billion pounds of the metal hanging over the market, which affects the price now under 15 cents a pound as against produc- tion cost averaging about IT cents. a condition that cannot long prevail, as there's a limit to financial sacri- fees no matter how powerful some of the producers nay be. Nearly all of them are at the end of their own credits, and some will surely have to close down solidly unless improve ment in demand and Erice comes soon. All are max,ng reductions in output which will soon clear. away the present surplus.

 "After my inspection i thought that it was rather a credit to a backward country like this. However, I had no means to find out otherwise, as I felt that they had 1t all primed for any inspection.

Deputy Arrests
 Wrong Woman

Phoenix, Ari., Dec 2S-Among four opinions handed down by the supreme court today was one in the cass of J. T. Miles, sheriff Of Pima county, ap- pellant, against Helen Wright and her husband, J. R. Wright, apr ellees, affirming the judgment of the court below. This was suit for damages for false arrest.
 On telephone message troIl Sheriff Montgomery of this. county, directing the arrest of certain Nina Wagner, wanted for the theft of Liberty bonds to sthe amount of $2,700, it was de. clared that George Holloway, dep uty of Sheriff Miles, entered a South ern Pacific train as it was passing Tucson, awoke Mrs. Wrigat, who was in her, berth, and took her off the train at Benson.

Tns principal defense of the sheriff WAS that the deputy in making the arrest was merely trespasser and not a re prase, tative of his office.

Whats the matter with copper? Is a question frequently asked these days when dividends are passed and the metal is selling lower than for many years, when investments in copper shares are receiving feeble, or no return, and with the price of the shares tumbling more rapidly than that for the ingots. It's a reason. able query, too, in the face of the great prosperity that has attended the operations of the associate metals of which steel is one of the most promi- nent. Steel has thrived amazingly ever since the close of the war, and has been in great demand, and it's a standing argument that copper ought to go lhand-in-hand with steel. It always has until recent years when there appears to have been a dissocia tion of these. interests.
 War Helped steeI-Hurt Copper
 Both copper and steel enjoyed great prosperity throughout the active course of the recent war, each being demanded to the limit of capacity oi mines and smelters and fabricators We used to read about the pounds of copper in the form of iron bands that were employed in the firing of projec- tilesA how the copper was necessary to swadge through the rifling of the gun that there might be mparted to the protective the proper circular mo ion so it could maintain it's flight with accuracy, and how this copper was also necessary in protecting the rif1ing of thesgun barrel. We used to figure the rtamber of tons used in the firing of SO many shots and it all sounded well to the copper miner who was do- ing his full duty in. supplying this need ed material. We read how the Germans were using copper roofs and church bells, door knobs and other things to provide metal for, similar use in their guns, this after they had exhausted the big suply of the metal they had accumulated during the many years while anticipating, and preparing for this attempt at humiliating the world. The Germans figured they would win

.ELKS SURPAsS PREVIOUS
 EFFORTS IN GRAND BALL

Again the Elks have ushered in the New Year, in their usual charm. ing manner with a grand ball which has surely surpassed all others.
 The Auditorium on New Years eve, was veritaotc fairy land and if the ''poor tired members of the decorating committee had heard the ''ohs", and "ahs" of the guests upon entering, they surely would have felt amply repayed for their efforts.
 Christmas trees, and more Christ mas trees, and you couldn't decide which looked the prettiest, and the rows and rows of coiored lights cast a rosy glow which made everyone look beautiful. The huge snow ball suspended in the center of the room causeda great deal of comment un til, at about midnight it mysterious. ly opened and gave forth shower of snow balls. A wild scramble answer ed, and you might imagine yourseii in the northland having a real snow ball fight.
 A huge Christmas tree on the stage was decorated and lighted and loaded with gifts, enough for one and all.
 The music was furnished by the Fl Paso orchestra in air usual pleasing manner.
 At nine thirty the Grand March was lead by Exalted Ruler and Mrs Burtch, and one had a -nance to gaze at the lovely ladies and theil escorts. Indeed, many beautiful gowns were displayed in every colol of the rainbow
 The floor was rather crowded but no one seemed to mind, and then "that punch, oh that wonderful Punch" which didn't last half long enough. At eleven o'clock the i'm pressiye roll call for the departed members was given. Perhaps the most original feature of the whole affair was when "Old Father Time with long white whiskers, shoulders bent from the burdens of 1920, was driven thru the hall. by the sweetest daintiest little spirit of the New Year 1921. These characters were sustained by Bro. M. w. Juleg and Miss sister Martin (aged 3.
 Caps, horns and every conceivable noise maker possible were distributed at midnight then the fun began, the gifts from the tree were not drawr for as originally planned but, mos everyone managed to get something as a souvenir programs were dispens edwith for an hour and supper was served down stairs coffee, sandwiches cakes and ice cream. Dancing con I tinued until two thirty.
