THE MINING SITUATION

April copper shipments totaled 234,-
100000 pounds, bringing surplus
stocks down to 231,O00,00O pounds, or
less than one-month's consumption.
Yet copper is selling at price that
means loss to some mines and small
margin of profit for others.
Silver prices are holding fairly
steady despite sales by China and
slight modification of Indian demand.
China will most likely change to the
buying side and the Indian demand
will be resumed on a much larger
scale.
World consumption of lead has in
creased to a point where the rate of
output is scarcely adequate to satisfy
demands. This is attributed to heavy
use of lead pipes and paint in the
building industry of this country and
Europe, to the large amount of lead
required for telephone cables, for stor-
age batteries for automobiles and in
radios. The United States is now the
largest producer of lead.
U. S. Geological figures show that
2,99S,500 long tons of phosphate rock,
valued at $11, 100000, were shipped
from mines of this country during
1928, most of which came from Flor
ida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Idaho and
Wyoming

WESTERN INTEREST IN MINING

The selection of Sacramento, Cal
ifornia, as the seat of the 1924 con-
vention of the American Mining Con-
gress has caused a great deal of sat-
isfactOry comment from old time min
ing men. Every foot of soil surround
ing Sacramento is hallowed by the
early deeds of the sons and daugh-
ters of the east, north and south
the leaders of that first mad rush
for gold in the days of 1849.
Within two hours drive of Sacra-
mento is one of the richest gold bear
ing areas in the world. 1t is planned
to take members of the convention
through the great Grass Valley min
ing district, where mines discovered
Is years ago are still steadily offer
ing up their golden boards. A meet
ing such as this should help focus
public interest on mining as one of
this nations greatest industries which
stands back of our permanent pros
perity.
Mining is no longer the speculation
it was in the days of '49, and it is de-
serving of the encouragement and
backing of individuals and financial
institutions.
While the history and romance of
mining has been largely built up
around gold we must not forget that
the more lowly metals such as silver,
lead, zinc, and copper contribute
vastly more to our material wealth
than gold does.
Production of these metals employs
tens of thousands of workmen and
the mines pay millions of dollars an
nually in taxes.
If the Sacramento convention awak-
ems public interest in western mining
and it's needs it will be of great ben
eft not only to the mining industry
but to the country at large.

TWO COMPANIES CLAIM WALNUT
GROVE DAMSITE

The controversy between the Ma
daburg Irrigation district and the
Carey Act project, both seeking to
utilize the waters of the Hassayampa
river to reclaim several thousand
acres of lands in Maricopa county,
was aired this week in the house
chambers at the Capitol before the
state land board and water commits
sioner. At the close of the hearing,
both sides were granted 80 days in
which to file their briefs supporting
their claims with the board. The
board also instructed the state engin-
eer to make a survey of the two pro-
jects and to report to the board.
The hearing was held on a petit
ton filed with the governor several
weeks ago by the land owners of
the Nadaburg Irrigation District
asking that the water rights granted
to Joseph Wittmann of New York
City by former State Water Commits
sioner w. S. Norveil for the use of
the waters of the river for irrigation
and power purposes, he declared void.
1t was the contention of the Pc
titioners at the hearing yesterday
that the rights granted to Whitman
and his previous rights obtained
from the old Walnut Grove Irriga-
tion district, had lapsed by reason
OF the fact that he had failed to
comply with the water code of the
state. The representatives of Witt
mann claimed that the rights had
not lapsed and that all the provisions
of the water code had been lived up
to.
During the hearing it was brought
out that Mr.. Whitman had offered
to apply the waters granted to him
to the lands that would serve the
best interests of the state, whether
this was on the lands on the Carey
Act or under the Nadaburg Irriga
tion District The representatives
of the Nadaburg district declared
thew had offered to let the Carey Act
project build the dam and to pay
its builders up to 10 per cent on
their investm ent for the water and
to later buy the dam. This they said
was refused and they had been un-
able to get together on common
ground in the matter.
The Nadaburg Irrigation District
was organized in 1920 while the Carey
Act project dates back to 1883, when
water rights were granted on the riv-
er and a storage dam built. This dam
washed out in 1890 and never has
been rebuilt. although for a number
of years Whitman, who is the SON.
in-law of Henry Van Buren,, the bull
der of the original dam. has had plans
under way to rebuild the dam, it was
related during the hearing.
The Nadaburg district was repre-
sented by Judge D. L. Cunningham
and R. H. Williams, engineer for
the district, while the Carey Act pro-
ject was represented by Judge E. S.
Clark and w. A. Parish, engineer
for the project.

POVERTY, MOTHER
OF PROSTITUTION
GERMAN SHOWS
Int'l. Workers Aid Gives
Proof OF This.
BY LOUIS p. LocHNER.

(Staff Correspondent Of the Fed. Press
BERLIN, April pa grim contri
button to the question, Why Girls
Become Prostitutes, is made by a
Berlin physician, DR.. Minna Flake
who lectured on behalf of the Inter.
national Workers Aid before loca
teachers association. Citing example
after example from her medicinal
practice, she showed that it is al
most invariably economic need that
forces girls upon the streets and into
houses of prostitution.
Without word of comment, sim.
ply adding case after case, DR.. Flake
gave one of the most stirring address
es ever heard by the teachers. Here
are but three cases which she cited
which l give in verbatim translation
Case IA. G., aged 16. Cash girl
in a store. She is found guilty of a
minor theft, a ribbon or a pair of
gloves, and is fired. She finds
new job but, altho reliable and sat
isfactory in every way, is dismissed
Immediately when the management
hears of her previous offense. She
finds no work, and is scolded at
home because she increases the
economic difficulties of the family
by eating without earning her
board. She grows respondent and
disappears. She is next heard of
as a prostitute"
Case ia. X, aged II. Intol-
cradle conditions at home. Embit-
tered by hunger, the family quar-
rels constantly, each blaming the
other. The girl serves as maid till
November, 1923, but after that tries
in vain to find a position. She
spends the night in the rescue mis-
sion, where all her things are stol-
en-. Then she falls i'll with grippe
and, as she comes home from the
hospital, entirely destitute, the fam
lily denies her admission. She now
earns her living as a girl of the
+, street."
Case Ill.-"R. s., aged 10. A case
of hopeless loneliness; the mother
dead, the father blind, nobody cares
about the child, she hasn't any
friend and no one to counsel her.
She ends as a prostitute The mon
ey thus earned is used either to
purchase food or else. since she has
an irrepressible desire for some
thing to cheer her up. to visit the
movies"
