ties Of the Oliver Mining company Of
the GOgebic n MenCmhnie ranges re-
sumed operations on full time basis.
The Davis and Puritan mines in the
Gogebic range also started operations
this morning on a similar basis. APP
proximately 5000 men went to work
this morning in the mines on the two
ranges on a six day a week basis.
Heretofore they had been working on
a part time basis. In the Gogebic
range mines the men worked in two
shifts, n shift working one week
and h other the mex In the Me
nominee range the men were working
on a three day a week schedule.
Orders to start work Monday were
received last Friday by D. r. Suther-
land, superintendent OF the Oliver
Mining properties,
There is considerable iron ore in
stock with the Oliver properties
throughout the ranges. No instructions
have been received for shipping ore
although word In expected within a
few days. Railroads are making
arations to move about double the ore
shipped last year. II was said that the
resumption Of these mines leaves but
two iron mines-the Colby and the
1ropton-on the inactive list. These
mines are owned by the Mckinney
Steel company OF Bessemer.
Operation of the mines today has
now restored them to practically the
same basis as existed before the per-
iod of depression which forced an al
most complete shutdown in June.
1921. With the exception Of the Oliver
mines in the Gogebic ranges-which
operated eight days a month. the 9TH

Sentiment III business circles is
much more cheerful than at any time
last year, and this Is especially note
worthy throughout the agricultural
districts. Although price conditions
aresregarded as yet far from I%satisfac-
keen realization of the losses they
have suffered, the country has gener-
ally recovered its poise, and is ready
to face the future with courage and
confidence.
Building operations are on a larger
scale than q year ago, and sufficient
to employ fairly well the workers in
the building trades and building ma
torial industries. The automobile in
year ago.. and contracts for railroad
equipment are on Il larger scale than
at any time since the VIZ. The effect
Of activity in these several lines has
given a pronounced stimulus to the
iron and steel industry.
For the first two months of the
present year. operating revenues of
the 201 Glass l railroads total $780,
S13,S89, showing a decrease from the
Operating expenses. on the other
hand, amounted to 1852, 05,06S, were
$~l64.947,673 less. Notwithstanding
the heavy falling off in gross, there
fore, net operating revenues of $751;
1881 were $~84,613,2s2 greater. and
net operating income was ST, III,
instead of a deficit Of $~3,626,343 for
the first two months of 1921.
Coal Strike.
The nationwide GOA! strike has
been in effect n month, during
which time production from non
union mines has been equal to about
one-third the total normal produce
ton. AS yet accumulated stocks
have been sufficient to prevent seri-
GUS interference with industry OF any
considerable. advance of PRICES, but if
the shutdown shall last another
month the influence probably will be
more apparent.
The situation presented by the coal
industry is a very complicated one.
The United States Geological Survey
said of it:
The bituminous coal mines of The
I United States lave a developed capa-
city and a present labor, force far in
c of that required to supply the
demand. In consequence the capital
nj labor engaged in the industry are
idle a large part of the time. During
the last so a the mines have been
idle an average Of 90 working days in
every calendar year.
There is no material disagreement
about the main facts OF the coal in
dustry. and the situation is SO simple
that it seems strange that so little Is
said of the remedy that is within the
reach of the miners themselves. Since
Toe many workers are seeking employ
ment in the industry, some Of them
should leave it and find employment
elsewhere. It then would be neces-
