REPUBLICANS GATHER IN
 PHOENIX FOR CONFERENCE
(From Tuesday's Dailyl

PHOENIX, Jan 3-For the pur- pose of selecting a national com mitteeman for Arizona to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Al Ian B. Jaynes, members of the re- publican state committee are gath ering here today at the call of Al bert NJ. Sames, state chairman. Other matters of importance to the organization will also be taken up at this time.
 The meeting. of the committee is scheduled for o'clock this after noon at K. of F. hall, which for many years has been used as a meet ing place for state republican gath erings.
 Many republican leaders arrived yesterday and this morning and the hotel Hobbies are beginning to take on the buzzing activities which fea- tured the old-time political convet- ton before the days of the primary law.
 Among the advance guard from Pima county were Mrs Josephine K. Littlejohn. A. H. Lyon, H. w. Zipf and Mrs. Allan B. Jaynes of Tucson, Aaron H. Powers of Prescott, and Roy N. Davidson of Jerome were among the Sunday arrivals from Yavapai county. Other prominent members of the committee who ar rived yesterday included Col. Fred r. Breen and Jerrie w. Lee of Coco nino county, Phil Freudentha1 and w.. O. Futile from Graham county.
 Much of the morning was taken up ill caucusing of the various coun- ty organizations. Andrew Baumert, IT,, secretary of the state committee, IS apparently leading the field as candidate for the national commit teemanship. Other names have been suggested, including those of Sena- tor Ralph H. Cameron and Colonel Fred s. Breen. General sentiment, however, strongly favors Baumert as the logical man for the position, and especially so in view of his close intimacy with the former committee man.
 Cameron is not here, but his in terests are being watched by Frank R. Stewart, and the senator's son, Ralph Cameron, Jr. The latter re- ceived word from his father today that he is improving following a slight operation, which he underwent in New York city.

EXTRA BOARD AT THE
 SANTA FEE IS CUT DOWN
(From Tuesdays Daily)

Twenty-Five firemen yesterday were laid off at the local Santa Fe roundhouse The lay-off followed that of nine engineers last Saturday. None of the men affected were those holding steady "runs," but men em- ployed as extras, working only when vacancies occurred through the ab- sence by illness or vacations, of those regularly employed. The ac- tual lay-off of the engineers really did not total nine, as some of these men took the place on the extra board" of some of the 25 firemen affected.
 It was stated at the Santa Fe of- fees yesterday that decreases in the business of the road necessitated this move, causing the extra board to carry too many names. The move, officials contended, could not really be called a lay-off, since the extra list being so long, none of the men affected was actually working more than one day in two weeks, and often longer.
 Each man on the ''board" had to drop to the bottom of the list when the man whose job he was filling returned to work, and from there pass gradually up to the head again, often as long as a month being re- quired before he was again in line for the first vacancy The lay-off is officially known as cutting the board"

MASS MEETING FOR
 LEGION TOMORROW
(From Tuesdays Daily)

An open meeting of the American Legion will be held at the Red Cross house, Whipple Barracks "Wednesday evening at 7 p. m. Ali veterans Of the world war are urged to attend that the program of the year 1921 may be outlined.
 It is expected that the veterans will give their idea of what the ex- soldier organization should accom- plish for their buddies. Questions concerning the various bonus meas ures are apt to come thick and fast, as well as those about loans on homes and farms.
 The convalescents at the Barracks are anxious to get positive informa- ton as to disability, especially total permanent. Some are known to be anxious as to how long compensa- ton continues after they are dis charged from the hospital, and if so, how much. Others are wondering if leaving against advice" will make Iany difference in the awards from the war risk bureau.
 It is forecast that the ex-soldiers this year are going to take an active part in the management of the af- fairs of the local post, and insist on going over the top with information and action to settle the many ques- tions of readjustment.
 This year is felt to be a time when the policy of the government toward the disabled will be fixed, affecting the men for years to come. The disabled veterans and their more fortunate comrades are massing this year in cx-soldier organizations, and demanding that their leaders bring these questions to the front. And they are backing their attitude by showing their buddies that it IS the humber of members in the organlza- ton that is going to count. The number of votes that can be mus tered to favor those who work ill the legislative branches of the gov ernment for the fair treatment of the nations disabled veterans, is what is going to put over the legis- lation needed to carry out the orig inal provisions and intentions of the Sweet bill.
 That the ex-scrvice men are in danger from those who from mo- tives of economy, or from short memory, seek to ''prune" out from appropriations money necessary to Icarry out provisions made for the disabled, is apparent to many of the 'men, and they are urging their cop- radcs to join the count" of men who will present united opposi- .tion 10 any trimming on the prom ises of lair treatment made when the nation was at war.
 That within the bureaus are those who are unsympathetiC with the real and beneficiary provisions of the Sweet bill, is felt by many of the

disabled men. The local legion post has been approached by those who take this view. These will be rep resented at the meeting Wednesday might. As an open session includ- ling all veterans, this meeting prom ises to furnish instruction as to what the ex-soldiers themselves want done.
 Thursday evening, the usual night of the legion meeting, will be the occasion of the first series of fea- ture movies, an innovation secured by Red Cross Director Case as a regular attraction for that evening.

slight improvement in the produc- tion of gold from copper ore and the steady output from the Oatman re- zion. More than half the output of gold from Arizona came from gold ores in the San Francisco district, in Mohave county The United Eastern company remained the larg- est producer of gold in the state, and the Tom Reed company contin- ued its large output. Of the copper properties, the Calumet & Arizona, United Verde and Copper Queen mines were the largest producers of gold.
 | Silver
 The mine output of silver in- creased from 5,266,6O5 ounces in 1919 to about 5,532,OOO ounces ill 1920, and the value increased from $5,898,59S to about $6,O32,OOO. The largest producers of silver were the copper mines in the Calumet & Ari- zona Copper Queen, United Verde, Magma and United Verde Exten- sion mines. Besides these mines, the largest producers of silver were the Shattuck lead mine, the Bunker Hill mine, at Tombstone, and the Com !monwealth mine at ,Pearce, which produce silver ore.
 Copper
 The mine output of copper in- creased from 53S,1OOS44 pounds ill 1919 to about 559,235,OOO in 1920, an increase of about 4 per cent The value of the output decreased from '$1OO, ,OS6,757 in 1919 to about $95,- .741,000 in 1920, owing to the de- crease in the average price of cop per from 18.6 cents to about 17.12 cents pound. Most of the large smelling plants produced more cop per than in 1919, but no effort was made to reach the totals of 1918, for the demand for the metal was not so great as had been expected. Toward the end of the year the price of copper decreased so much that many of the large mining com panies operated at a loss. At Ajo the New Cornelia Copper company continued the teaching of copper ore and increased its output of electro lytic copper to about 3,300,000 pounds per month.
 Lead
 The mine production of lead in Arizona increased from 10,205,07S pounds in 1919 to about 14,000,000 pounds ill 1920 The value of the output increased from $540,763 to about $1,147,OOO. Most of the ship ments of lead ore were made from the Shattuck mine, in the Warren district; other producers were the Bunker Hill at Tombstone, Kingman Consolidated in Mohave county, the Aravaipa Leasing company in Gra- ham county, and several properties in Santa Cruz county.
 Zinc
 The output of recoverable zinc decreased from 1,717,0O0 pounds in 1919 to about 1,4570OO pounds in 1920. The value decreased from $125,341 to about $118,000. The Arizona Hillside Mining company in Yavapai county, was the only large producer, and this mine was closed late in the year.
 Dividends
 The dividends paid by Arizona mining companies during the first eleven months of 1920 amounted to about $16,7O6,7S3, exclusive of $4, 5O0OOO of the Phelps Dodge cor poration, which also operates mines in Mexico and New Mexico. The that paid dividends were the Miami, Inspiration, New Cor 1elia, Iron Cap, Shattauck, United Eastern, United Verde, United Verde Arizona Copper, Calumet & Arizona, Ray Consolidated, and he Phelps Dodge corporation

MINE PRODUCTS OF STATE
 DECREASE THREE MILLION
(From Tuesdays Daily)

Supplied by the U. s. Geological Survey, department of the interior.)
 The value of the gold, silver, cop per, lead and zinc produced by mines ill Arizona in 1920, according to the estimate of Victor C. Heikes, of the United States geological sur Ivey, department of the interior, was about $1O7,725,OOO, a decrease of nearly $3,433,OOO.
 The quantity of all these metals except zinc increased, but the total output for 1919 was far below the average for the previous five years. In spite of the increase in the quan- tity of most of the metals and in the total value of the gold, silver and lead, the combined value of all the metals was less on account of the low price of copper. During the last two months of the year, when the price ofs copper fell below Is cents a pound, many of the large copper companies again curtailed production.
