the Northport Smelling & Refining

the smelter at Ira !, B. c., with a

The production of silver hes not
been stimulated by the present high
price, and the output continues to
come mainly from the Chewelah dis
trict. The output of copper will be
far below normal in 1921, as the
Sunset mine, in Snohomish county, IS
idle, and the shipments from the
United Copper Co.'S property at Che
welah have been restricted to 1875
tons of crude ore month The con-
centration mill is idle. At Northport
the lead mines are making no ship
ments, as it IS impossible under the
prevailing conditions to profitably
market lead ore which contains no
silver. Zinc ore from the Northwest
mine, or Make property, near North
port, continues to be shipped to east

Commissioner Haynes Starts Army
of Fifty Thousand Enforcement
Officials ut Work
BY RALPH F. COUCH

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 18.-
The greatest vide against liquor since
the United States went on dry basis
is in full swing today.
An army Of approximately $4,000
law enforcement officials is co-operat-
ing with Federal Prohibition Commits
sioner Haynes in .nistering the
Volstead law.
With score of government agen-
cies and departments assisting in en-
forcement of the dry laws and con-
gress considering amendments to
make the Volstead law more nearly
100 per cent tight the next six months
will be the most arid the country has
yet experienced If Commissioner
Haynes puts into effect all his plans.
Liquor, halted at the borders of the
United States, now is piling up in sta
lions of the United States customs
service. Rum runner stock is being
seized faster than the government
can legally dispose Of it.
