CANNOT Build ON
AUDITORIUM WALL
Special Meeting Of School
Board Tuesday To Act.
On Sale While They Last

A committee from the School
Board went with Architect Kent to
the High School yesterday to con-
slider the question of additional IA
cilities for an expected increase in
enrolment next fall. After an ex-
animation of the walls it was agreed
that the proposal to build an addi-
tional story on the present walls of
the auditorium was impracticable,
would cost more than $4,000, would
not be completed for several months
and would not guarantee security
even though 1t We're attempted.
With this possibility eliminated
the possibilities were narrowed to
two plans-one the purchase of two
portable buildings, to be located at
the rear of the present building,
and heated by separate heaters;
and the other the erection of a two
room addition at the west end of
the present building, which would
be tied into the present building
and be heated by steam from the
general furnace. The committee
will hold special meeting next
Tuesday morning to consider the
matter with Architect Kent, at
which time a representative from
the Alexander Lumber Company, of
Pittsburgh, will also be present to
discuss the portable building propo-
sition.

PLAINTIFFS FINISH
 ROAD DISPOSITIONS

Deposition for the plaintiffs in the case brought by Judge P. H. Prince against the Conway and Damascus road district, which have been in progress at the courthouse since Mon day, were concluded at noon today, although Judge Prince said he might take additional testimony later Among the witnesses examined were County Judge E. L. Smith, former County Judge J. A. Lea, County Clerk J. A. Hutto, former Clerk John Reeves, Tax Assessor Roy Rogers, Mayor W. D. Cole, chairman of the board for the district, and R. w. Rob- ins, attorney fer the district.
 When the plaintiffs conclude their testimony the defendants will be al- lowed 30 days in which to take their depositions. It is therefore unlikely that the case will be ready for sub mission at the adjourned term of chancery court to be held here on May 3.

PLAN AGGRESSIVE
 FIGHT ON MALARIA

Little Rock, April 14.-L. D. Tricks
 of Memphis, who is in charge of the
 malarial control work of the south,
 was in conference yesterday with Dr.
 Garrison and the field force with ref erence to an extension of the work
 in Arkansas. Dr. Garrison will go
 to Memphis tomorrow to meet Dr.
 John A. Farrell of New York, director of the public health work in the
 United States. According to plans now being put into effect, the United States public health service, the in- ternational health board and the state boards of health are cooperating in these campaigns. The first control unit in the United States was estab- lished at Crossett, Ark, in 1916, and it is now planned to extend the work to IF localities in the state this year, including new areas at Prescott, Ar kadelphia, Newport and possibly Cur don. From Arkansas the work has spread into all southern states and many are now far ahead of this state. The annual cost to the government in Arkansas is about s35,0O0 and be- ginning July 1, the state for the first time is making available an appro- priation of $5,000 annually to assist in the work Had this not been done by the last legislature, federal aid would probably have been withdrawn. As result of these demonstrations the incidence of malaria is much re- duced.

ANTI-F|RF FIGHT

Little Rock, April 1a.-The per slstsnt sl1sesszs5s nat has been made
 csaesampaig against the fire ;s during recent be bearing fruit. nat hazard appeT announced by the a @ It has just Insurance, Bruce T. yoar commisslonf loss ratio for the yea. yea Bullion, tho 6s, and for the five s.sss~.year 1920 m 1916 to 1920, it was 45.51.year peria9 the loss ratio was 47.S6. These figures are exceedingly small, when compared with the ra- tios reported several years ago, when destruction by fires seemed to be at its height. For instance, in 1913 the loss ratio was 125.8 and in 1915 it was 102, which means that for every S1.00 received by the company in premium in the year 1915, S102 was paid back to the insured, and in 1913 $1.25 was returned.
 The premiums in 1920 received by fire insurance companies operating in the state amounted to $7,997.057, and for the five year period the total was $27 ,402,617. The losses for the year 1920 were $3,253,S97. and for the five year period $12,444,361.
 MT. Bullion ascribes this favorable showing to the campaignsc of fire prevention that have been carried on during recent years and to the edu- cation of the people against the fire hazards.

ALUM PROPERTY
INCREASING ITS
WORKING FORCE.

Official announcement was made
this morning by w. B. Roberts, pres
ident and general manager of the
Western Chemicals, Incorporated
that final payment has been made
on the anhydrous sodium sulphate
deposit located near Clarkdale, Ari-
zona, and that the company now
owns outright both that property
and the potash-alum deposit located
near Silver Peak
Mr. Roberts came to Tonopah for
the purpose of employing additional
men at the Silver Peak property. He
states that two teaching tanks are
now in use and that the mill is in
operation treating on an average Of
about 80 tons of potash-alum daily.
Preliminary tests have just been
completed and it has been demon
strated that a good earning can re
suit from the treatment of the
product
For the present about 80 tons will
be treated daily, which will result
in an extraction of 90 per cent alum
and Is per cent sulphur. However,
it is expected to increase the ca
pacity to from 80 to 100 tons daily
in due time.
Officials of the Western Chemicals
are feeling quite optimistic over the
closing of a contract running for
FIVE years with the Balfour- Guthrie
company an English corporation. for
the sale of the entire product, con
sisting of potash-alum, flowers of
sulphur and anhydrous sodium sui
phate at a figure which leaves no
doubt concerning earnings of the
company from its two properties.
1t is hoped to gradually increase
the working force at the property in
Esmeralda county, and the outlook is
now promising for the employment
of quite a number of men in the
near future.
