MAKE COPPER
FROM CANS
Try New Process in Arizona
in Obtaining Copper

Phoenix, Ariz., July 3l.-The bust
ness of turning tin cans into cop
per-" as the process is popularity de-
scribed, is reaching large proportions
in Arizona.
The process which actually consists
in recovering copper from water
through the use of scrap iron, which
displaces the copper in solution, is
by no means new, but has been ex-
tended and improved in recent years
so that several hundred carloads of
tin cans, as we'll as large quantities
of scrap iron, are now shipped to
Arizona mining centers each year.
At most of the mining centers in
the state the process is subordinate
to main mining operations, being u.s.
ed merely to extract the copper from
water seepage pumped from the
mines. This water contains small
quantity.Qf copper, less than, two
tenths of one percent, In solution
The water is run through sluices
where scrap iron has been placed
Part of the, iron goes into solution
and the copper is deposited in The
bottom of the sluices and is collect
ed at intervals. The process is val
uahle principally on account Of thu
low expense involved. -$.l,sAs
At Ajo, a mining camp in the south
western part of the state, the pfin
ciple has been extended and the scral
iron method. is used as one step IL
the electrolytic process Of extract
ing copper from ore. The process
according to mining men, is not con
fined to Arizona mines but is als'
used in Montana and Utah.

HARNESS co,
Fraud in War Contracts Is To
Be Charged

Washington, July 3i-Counsel here
for the United States Harness COM
pany, which bought from the govern
ment more than million dollars
worth of surplus harness after the
conclusion of the war, were advised
Saturday that indictments charging
conspiracy to defraud' in connection
with the sale were returned by a
federal grand jury in Elkins, w. Va,
Saturday against four officers of the
company and three former war de-
partment officials.
Those named in the indictments
were Earl r. Estes, formerly of the
war department claims board; John
G.. Skinner, formerly chief clerk of
the war department, surplus prop
terty division; E. c. Morse, who was
director of sales under secretary
Baker, and Joseph e. Ryan, George
B. Boetz, Azel F. Cochran and Henry
w. Benke, all officers of the COM
pany. ~
The case is one of those worked up
by the war frauds division of the de-
partment of justice. E. c. Morse, one
of those mentioned in the indictment,
wa1 also indicted last August in
connection with the sale of the Old
Hickory Powder plant near Nash
Vile, Tenn. Civil litigation was in
stituted over the harness transactions
two years ago, and President Hard
ing in proclamation declared the
contracts were invalid.

FINDS WAY TO
SEPARATETW0
ELEM ENTS
DIR. Harkins Discovers Means
of Dividing 'HIndivisible"
Elements

CHICAGO. July 3l.--Two chemical
elements hitherto considered Indivis-
iblr have been separated by DR.. Will
liam d. Harkins, professor of physical
cago, whose experiments In this field
are expected to revolutionize the
chemical theory Of century.
Dr.. Harkins explained how he tried
to separate chlorine, the grcenish yell
low gas used by the Germans when
they first introduced chemical war
fare. Chlorine has long been consid-
cred one Of the 80 odd elements, like
carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. which
have defied all attempts at division.
These so-callcd elements are present
in the earth and in the sun.
"For five years we worked" he said.
1--WE tried all sorts of apparatus and
used more than ton of hydrogen
chloride before we succeeded. The
gas was d,ffused through the stems
of church warden pipes. These pipes
are made Of white clay and have
stems between IS and "a inches long.
The lighter parts of the gas passed
outward through the stems. The hea-
ver parts remained, and thus we
discovered that our so-called ele-
ment, chlorine, could be separated
and another time-h onored theory had
surrendered. Virtually all physicists
and chemists in the United States
have accepted the results"
DR.. Harkins then demonstrated that
mercury, also considered fundamen-
tai substance, can be broken up. Like
the chlorine twins, the parts of mer
curry look alike but are vastly diff
ferent in weight, he explained. DR..
Harkins is performing similar exper-
iments with zinc and cadmium to see
if they too are mixtures instead of
elements.
"These experiments indicate, then,
that there probably is only one fun
damental element instead of the 80 we
have been pinning our faith on all
these years." DR.. Harkins said. "That
basic element is hydrogen, and, ac-
cording to my theory, all the so-called
elements are compounds of helium or
helium with hydrogen. But since he'll
ium itself is built up from hydrogen,
then all the elements are intratomic
compounds of hydrogen"

Sacred Places

New York. July 31.-The sacreo
places of the Holy Land, the places
hallowed by the human presence OF
the Saviour a.e in danger of becom-
ing shabby and neglected. That Is
the word issued by Archbishop Pan
teleimon, representative of the Patri-

places and maintaining them in the
dignity to which their sacred ASSOC
Citations entitle them.
The locations includes the Holy
Sepulchre, Bethlehem. Nazareth. the
Mount of Olives, and others woven
into the life of the Lord. They have
been maintained in the past by the
Patriarchate Of Jerusalem, one OF the
four great branches of the Orthodox
Eastern church. But today the Pa
triarchate faces the rapid exhaustion
of it's funds as a result Of conditions
following the world var, aid tn.
archbishop is here to cooperate with
the American Committee on the Pres

K. w. JOHNSON,
FORMER DAKOTA
PROMOTER, HELD

Denver, Colo, July 31.-Ralph W..
Johnson, 25, formerly of Valley City,
N. d., who asserts that he was at
one time president of the Farmers
Livestock corporation at Bismarck. is
held here on a federal charge of for
gerry.
Johnson says he is scion of one
of North Dakota's wealthy fami-
lies, and that he served in the
air division of the army almost en-
tirely throughout the World war. be-
ing commended for bravery in &C
ton. He tells a thrilling story of his
rise in the financial world after his
return from the war. For three
years, he says, he matched wits with
manipulators of fast moving stocks
and bonds and fortune smiled or
him. But he adventured too far along
the rosy path and was "fleeced."
$25 Count Called Irony
Broke and in disgrace johnson
says he was forced to leave his fam
ily, and he went to Kansas City and
from there came to Denver, where he
obtained employment with the Colo
RADIO Home Builders association. A
money order for $25 passed through
his hands and he yielded to the
temptation to sign his name to 1t,
according to the charge.
ut seems like irony" johnson
says, "that after putting over deals
that ran into six figures ! should
have been caught on paltry $25
count"
Johnson is tall and handsome, and
even the prospect of term at Leav-
enworth does not greatly dampen his
seemingly habitual cheerfulness.
He was arraigned before U. S.
Commissioner FOote and bound over
for the grand jury. His bond was
set at 81 900.
