Genoa, May 12.-(By The Associat'
ed Press. )-France will never agree
to the project for a mixed commission
sitting indefinitely while the conference
is going on, to study Russian affairs
according to a statement issued by the
French delegation.
Foreign Minister Schanzer Of Italy,
addressing a body Of newspaper rep
resentatives in attendance upon the
economic conference, expressed the
opinion that the Russian reply would
not prevent the continuation Of the
conference.
Vice Premier Barthou of France and
Foreign Minister Jaspar OF Belgium
had a long conversation over the reply
and agreed to follow an identical
course in the further developments of
the situation. Both were awaiting in
structions from their respective gov
ernments.
Reply Impossible, Say French
"Russia's reply is utterly impossi-
ble," the French statement declares.

to the lavish prominence accorded them
since their arrival in Genoa, including

The attitude of the soviet represent

fled the positions Of both France and
Japan, that the communist leaders
would endeavor to drag on the negotia-

affairs postponed consideration Of the
reply to the allied memorandum until

British and italians Agree
The British announced that they
agreed with the Italians in favor of the
appointment of q mixed commission
by the conference to study Russian
credits, debts and the treatment of for
eign private property in Russia, as
suggested by the Russian reply; but
would not consent to such an arrange

and the other European countries to

Still Basis Left for Peace
"A statement of the British view in

very stupid from the viewpoint of

ain is not to adopt the view that Eu-

Russian people further consideration
in their misery simply because Of q
stupid argument. 49,.
"As far as Russia is concerned"
continues the statement, 'help will
undoubtedly be placed and surrender
made difficult, but that is an affair of
the Russian government. We are quite
prepared to 60 into the suggestion
that the question Of credits, debts and

this means that Russia will have to

Regarding the other aspect OF the
Russian document, namely the peace OF
Europe, this affords a satisfactory ba-
sis for further negotiations. To break

the states bordering on Russia might
be exposed to the dangers Of war and
peace be fundamentally disturbed.

Are O for us or
against us?

In the article Of yesterday it was said that
cooperative ownership, to be mutually salts
factory, requires only correct and successful
business management.
1t was also said that two of the fundamental
factors in the economic reorganization, now
going on, are cooperative ownership and scien-
tlfic management.
Applied, as an example, to the Wood and SAT-
ford Company, scientific management means
that the operative program of this institution
is SO laid out that success and profits are abso-
lutely assured.
In the statement of the operations of this
Company for the last nine months of 1922,
which appeared in last Sundays Tribune, it was
shown that the profits of the Wood and Stafford
Company for that period would be not less than
$50, 100000.
The total outstanding capital of the Company
at the end Of this year will not exceed
$780, 300 and this means that the Wood and
Stafford Company is now operating to a pro-
gram which will result in a net profit for the
last three-fourths of this year of 40%o to the
share holders.
And this is in no sense unreasonable. Every
great manufacturing institution that has at
tanned national Importance and success, has
accomplished results quite as remarkable-the
National Cash Register Company or the Bethle-
He'll Queer company, Tor example.
Now it is the policy of this organization to
explain our methods and plans fully to the pub
lie. And one of two conclusions is Unavoidable:
either l am a hopeless fool or a very remarkable
thing is being done in this community. Now in
the course of a long and rather busy career
have had to defend myself from many charges.
But no human being ever yet has called me
a fool.
This article may seem rather pointed, but we
are bringing the situation into definite shape
in Great Falls, and l am going to speedily find
just how this community stands, SO far as it
has to do with our interchangeable is those
who are interested, those who are skeptical and
those who are Indifferent.
Inasmuch as we represent, not our own ambi-
lions, but the inevitable coming change in COM
mercial methods, it is proper for us to drive
publicity of the sort we have been putting forth
from day to day to conclusions. And we shall.
We want to know who are in sympathy with us.

mandate 10 foreseen with the reported
decision of France to invoke the San
Reno oil agreement, in which Great
Britain and France agreed not to nego-

Palestine and Mesepotamia. France, It
is reported, holds that Great Britain
has not lived up to the exact letter of

It became known Thursday that the

TRANs|ENTs MOVE
EAST AND WEST
Great Army of Men Rides Frsieht
Trains That Pass Through This
City ON Two Transconti-
mental Railroads

It is asseverated within railroad
circles that more idle men are now
moving both east and west at this
time than ever before in the history
of railroading in Nevada. It is true
that the early nineties saw whole
sale migrations of the unemployed,
but the tendency then was to travel
in larger groups after taking pos
session of trains, move that was
made necessary by the rules forbid
ding free rides. But railroad Off
cialdom has laid down new edicts
which permit Of the carrying Of men
going to an objective as objects Of
charity, the view being entertained
that the danger of depredations is
thus lessened.
A well known special officer
whose duty it is to keep down crime
and apprehend offenders visited this
city recently and commented upon
the extraordinary conditions pre-
vailing now. He has seen the great
movements of humanity in their
ebbs and flows throughout past
years and delivered the opinion that
the conditions of the present period
are without parallel in the coun-
try's history. "What strikes me
with fullest force," he said, ';s the
fact that so many Of the transients
are actually looking for work. An
other thing that impresses me is the
immature years of great part of
those who are travelling as hobos."
Local American Legion authori-
ties are sponsor for the statement
that Vernon Robins post receives on
an average of ten calls each day for
assistance from men who claim to
have had military service. It is the
opinion of the Legion members here
that about one in five of the in
stances is actually deserving. Many
Canadians are among those who ask
for aid during brief sojourns in this
city.
Recently Commander Norman Bell
made an investigation of the medi-
cal. wants of those who ask the local
post for aid of this nature. He
found, much to his chagrin, that a
considerable number of the bene-
ficiaries are users of narcotics.
Assurances come from the ma
tional capital that although the peak
of unemployment is being reached
this month, to continue until March
1, that early spring will bring q
revival of industry to the point
where men who want work can have
it almost without exception.

MORE ABOUT THE
PLATINUM HERE
Silver State Chemical Company to
Start Treating Platinum Ores
As Soon A. Cold Snap 10
Thing Of the Past

The Silver State Chemical Com
pany, discoverer of platinum in the
ores found in the camp of Platinum,
is soon to treat on an extensive
scale the ores from the O-B-H claim,
where the first discovery was made.
Temporary equipment is being in
stalled at the big plant now near
completion in the eastern edge of
Winnemucca alongside the Southern
Pacific tracks. The initial run will
probably be made within the next
week or ten days, as the cold
weather Of this period is distinctly
inimical to the tests in prospect for
obvious reasons. Machinery cannot
be set in concrete, nor would the
necessary chemical solutions with
stand the freezing temperatures.
The first tests to be made will
absorb something like ton Of the
ore from the O-B-H claim, this ore
now being in the hands of the cham
ical company. The same general
method Of reclaiming the platinum
content will be used as was applied
in making the assay runs wherein
determinations showing platinum in
paying quantities were effected. Ex-
periments are now being carried on
by L. E. Sewers, chemist, in which
a practical commercial method may
be evolved for the extraction of
platinum from the more or less re-
fractory ores found in Platinum dis
trict. Carrying on duplicate tests,
embodying commercial and labora-
tory methods, he has obtained re-
suits in commercial sense approx
mating sixty-six per cent Of the
values derived through assay runs.
It Is interesting to know, in view
Of the disputatious conversation that
has been carried on anent the exist
ence Of platinum at Platinum, that
similar controversy has arisen up in
western Washington, as will be
shown by the following letter from
J. d. Champlain, consulting engineer
of one Of the large active mining
companies Of the northwestern
state:
"Mr. L. E. Sewers, Winnemucca,
Nevada. Dear Sir: My friend Mr..
Watrous of this city (Tacoma), to
whom you wrote concerning the dis
covery and extraction Of platinum
from ores in Nevada, very kindly

Several months ago we sent sam

Pass, Oregon, and got splendid re-
turns in platinum and palladium.
We afterwards learned Of other as
sayers there and samples were sent
them also, with practically the same
returns, varying somewhat in guam
tity. Local assayers and chemists
were then asked to confirm these re-
ports, but all failed to get even a

JUDGE LANGW|TH
IS SULPHUR KING
Spoke at Wednesday Chamber of
Commerce Luncheon and Effort
Was One of Most interest,"
ing of Recent Times

1t has been a long time since
local speaker SO thoroughly en-
crossed the attention of his audi
ence as did Judge ]. A. Langwith
yesterday in his address before the
business men of the city in attend
ance at the mid-week luncheon. 1t
probably is fact that most Hum
boldt county people have failed to
sense Alright the importance of the
sulphur industry. By the same
token they have failed to give
due importance to the presence
within the county Of one of the
worlds largest and purest sulphur
deposits. For these reasons Judge
Langwith's talk aroused interest,
created discussion and gives added
hope for the morrow in this great
county. His talk, in part, was as
follows:
"What I am going to say may
sound like a fairy story, but l as
sure you have no stock to sell and
only wish to call to the attention
of the members of this chamber
and the public one Of the great pos
sible industries Of Humboldt county.
"Most Of you know, in a general
way, that there is sulphur deposit
in Humboldt county, but that is as
far as the information of most citi-
zens of the county extends. Tradi-
tion tells US that the sulphur mines
at Sulphur, in this county, were first
discovered by an Indian more than
fifty years ago and that he sold to
a Chinaman for a horse and saddle.
The Chinaman worked one of the
deposits for some time, taking out
only the very richest ore. In the
very early '70s the mines came into
the possession Of three men named
Rover, McReady and Sharp. Then
followed one of the great tragedies
Of Humbofut county. Sharp was
murdered and his body cut up and
buried in various places. McReady
accused Rover Of the crime and he
was tried in Winnemucca and hanged
just at the rear of where the jail
now stands. It is said that the ghost
Of Sharp still walks abroad on the
anniversary Of his death.
1.-THE mines then were owned by
local business men, among whom
were the late Alex Wise, Senator
Nixon and Harry Warren. At that
time there were only about thirty
thousand tons Of sulphur used in the
United States, and as they. had to
compete with Italian and Japanese
sulphur the operations were not a
great success. The mines have been
operated and owned by various COM
panies since that time and have
been a steady producer, although
not on a large scale. The present
operators took possession in July,
1920, and since that time have been
spending money in the erection of
machinery which will eventually
handle large tonnage. The old mill
on the property burned down short
ly after the war started, or rather
after we got into the war. The
owners Of the property, the Nevada
Sulphur company, sent A. j. Crow
