SAYS LINCOLN HIGHWAY
WILL NOT BE CHANGED

Carson News: "The Lincoln High
way Association will continue its
program OF building a great trans
continental highway" Tuesday eve
ming declared Field Secretary Gael s.
Hoag, who will spend a few days in
Carson in the interest Of the organi-
zation which he represents.
And there will be no change in
location of the route" continued Mr..
Hoag. cit is a fixed policy of the as
ISOLATION that once selected a route
Is not changed" Asked IL his state
ment goes for the situation in vest
ern Utah and eastern Nevada the
field secretary stated with positive
ness that the Lincoln Highway AS
ISOLATION will not be re-routed from
Salt Lake City to Wendover. Neither
will a change In location be made in
the eastern part of this State.
The stand taken by the News edi-
trially a few days ago to the effect
that forces in Salt Lake City inimical
to the Lincoln Highway do not want
an improved and completed highway
leading directly west Mr.. Hoag en-
dorsed as absolutely correct. He re-
ferred to a recently published state-
ment of the we'll known Salt Lake
City road man, "Bil1" Rishel, who
practically admitted that Utah's chief
interests in the visiting automobile
tourists Is to keep them within the
borders of that State, and that the
showing in support of the northern
route is really camoufage.
Are the residents of southern To-
oele County, Utah, going to stand firm
in their support of the Lincoln High
way as opposed to the Wendover
route, Mr.. Hoag?" Most assuredly
they are" he answered. They will
not provide the funds necessary for
improvement of the road to Wend-
over. They have already reduced the
amount of their tax levy for road i'm
provement purposes to the minimum,
which is about nineteen hundred dol
lars, and have announced that they
will raise no more money until as
sured that it will be expended where
they vision the Lincoln Highway.
Nineteen hundred dollars will not
make much of a showing on the
Wendover road"
There are various matters to be
discussed with the Nevada highway
officials regarding Improvements to
be made on the route in this State"
Mr.. Hoag said. Agreements under
which the State of Nevada accepts
Lincoln Highway Association funds
for use in construction work in this
State have been made. Contracts on
which the time limit had expired
have been renewed. | am also going
over highway details with State Con-
sui Harrington, and will be in Car
son several days. OF course we will
continue u campaign for more ex-
tensive recognition of our road as a
primary and secondary route

v PRESS COMMENT
DOUBLE CROSSED
BY SALT LAKE

Tonopah Times: The Ely Chamber
of Commerce has rejected the recon-
mendation Of its committee to affirm
a tentative contract with the Utah
Highway Commission for the con-
struction of a road from Wendover
to Ely, cutting out the so-called Sieb-
erling cutoff which vas agreed upon
originally by joint action of Utah
and the officials of the Lincoln High
way. At an animated session of the
Ely Chamber of Commerce the cud of
bitterness was masticated to a fraz-
zle, with a strong vote favoring with
drawal of all support from either the
Sieberling or Wendover routes. The
latter route would be valuable chief
ly as an interstate link in the chain
of communications radiating from
Salt Lake as a means of building up
trade territory. but it would not
swing tourist traffic away from the
northern route across the State which
has been christened the Victory High
way. The opinion seemed to have
been freely expressed that Salt Lake
was not to be trusted and that the
only safe course was for White Pine
County to refrain from spending a
dollar on either promotion as any adj
ditional expenditure along the lines
urged by Salt Lake would initiate
against the Lincoln Highway. which
White Pine County espoused years
ago when Salt Lake entered into a
solemn compact to build the Sieber-
ling cutoff. Tooele County, Utah, is
opposing Salt Lake in the Wendover
movement, and the White Pine Com
missioners will probably let the mat
ter ride until they are in better shape
financially to entertain thoughts of
fresh construction to protect its or
iginal investment. When the agita-
tion for a connection with the Lin
coin Highway started our a ago
tourist travel from the east had be-
gun to assume great proportions, ac-
cording to Gael s. Hoag, secretary of
the Lincoln Highway Association. Mr..
Hoag's headquarters are in Detroit,
but he is well posted on Nevada con-
ditions as he was consul for the asso-
citation, with headquarters at Ely,
during the time negotiations between
the association and the people of
Utah were in progress.

UNIVERSITY PAPER
DEFENDS COED MORALS

While the newspapers of the coun-
try are running rampant with articles
and editorials discussing pro and con
the morals of the coed portion of the
American college, we congratulate
ourselves that little that is said Is
applicable to our school. Short skirts
and peek-a-boo waists are seldom
seen and the girl who Use rouge and
lip sticks is a rarity. Smoking, as
far as the women are concerned, is an
unknown art. Witness this on the
authority of Dean Mack, who states
that she has yet to find a coed with
nicotine-stained fingers or a cigarette
butt within the sacred precincts of
Manzanita. The girls are models in
demeanor and department. Ohmyyes,
but we love 'em just the same.-Uni-
versity of Nevada Sagebrush.

COPPER SlTUATION-Fh two features of the copper situation dur ing the past week has been the con tinued European demand even win increased price. With the exhaustion of the copper surplus, the producers have started to increase production but this increase will no! get on to the market for at least three months and before that time we will proba- bly see 15 cent-and possible higher copper.
 WARREN-I: was rather unusual coincidence that the annual report of the Calumet and Arizona Mining Company showed a deficit for last year of S694, ,STS.45 and the total paid in taxes on the property was 1892. .. 247.35 an almost equal amount
 JEROME-The sale of the Grand Island property to the Shea Copper Company needs only the ratification of the stockholders of the former which seems assured. The contract provides for work to start by July 1st and $50,000 at least spent.
 INSPIRATION-Co is to begin at once on a large number of houses for employees and officials of the Inspiration Consolidated Copper Company. The town building contem- plates a school, movie theatre and other things making comprehensive program.
 WILLCOX-The Central Copper Company is electrifying it's pumping plants. The plants have formely been run by air but a demand for greater air capacity made the change ad- visable. The lighting system in the town will be furnished from the new plant.
 PHOENIX-The horizontal railroad freight rate cut of 1211a% in the noun tain district means much to the mines of Arizona from which business or igina-es the greater amount of the freight handled in the state. A handI- cap of the mines has been the freight rates.
 MEAMI-The strike at the Raritan refinery in New Jersey has caused copper shipments out of Miami to cease. It has in no way curtailed production and about two and a hali million pounds are in the Information al smelter yards now. The striks is for higher wages. PARKER-The Copper Basin Con solidated Mines Company, who have done quite extensive development work on their property about eigh | miles from Parker are now making active preparations for a resumption | of acEivity.

ABSENTEE CAPITALISM"

The self recommended candidate for Governor in the Democratic Pri- maries, the Ex-Minister to Siam, has commenced a trade on what he IS pleased to call absentee capitalism '' We interpret the term to mean non residents of the state who have seen fit to invest their capital in the de- Velopment of the resources of Ari- zona. We find this absent capital present in our mining industry, re- presented by millions of dollars, without which Clifton-Morenci, Bis bee, Ajo, Ray Jerome, Globe and Miami would still remain prospects. We find this absent capitalism in municipal public utilities; we find it in our lumber companies, and in our railroads, and in some of our recla, nation projects.
 Without outside capital Arizona would still remain desert and a prospect
 While we have nothing against 'shome capital'', neither are we pre- judiced against absent capitalism , We would rather see nome capitaf' invested exclusively in all of our in dustrial enterprises, but sad to re- la.te, in the past the demand has far exceeded the supply.
 What little bit of absent capi- talism'' will do to start the wheels turning is being exemplified in this district just now where absent Capi- talists'' put $150,000 into the Stargo mines in this district and work is now under way contracting cyanide mill on this property and giving employ ment to scores of men. This incl dent is only a drop in the bucket. Millions and millions of dollars of absentee capitalism" has been sent into Arizona for it's development. Millions of this amount thus sent, has been lost while other millions have returned a handsome profit, such is the fortune of development work.
 What Arizona needs today is more and more assistance from absentee capitalism" to further develop it's prospect mines, it's reclamation pro jects and it's timber resources ana transportation systems.
 Absentee Capitalism" is not : political issue in Arizona. Capital whether it be '.absentee,'' foreign domestic" or international'' is wei come in Arizona where undevelopet resources afford opportunity for de yeIopment.
