j. +. Macdonald Of Mountain
Springs, who has just returned
from Il trip to Phoenix, reports that
prosperity has again descended ON
the Hassayampa state ana that
there is much activity, particularly
in mining circles.
Mines that have been closed ever
since the postwar slump are re
opening, among them the Magma
and Fortuna near superior There
is even rumor that the famous
Old Silver King, which has been
closed since 1850 and from which
more than million dollars worth
of silver ore WAS taken, will re
open, as II corps of workers is on
the scene.
At this mine. Macdonald saws,
there is one of the famous phantom
cities of which the west boasts
many, Chang over from the
boom DAYS when thousands of per
sons flocked into the camp. Rows
and rows of empty houses, fallen
into decay and long since unoccu-

Arizona---a very definite and we'll
aimed propaganda that would dis
courage the transcontinental travel
