Mining Man Predicts Permanent Revival Of

To the Monte Vista Journal:

The majority of our citizens who
know nothing about mining are un-
good business to build a mill until
the mine is thoroughly developed
and sufficient ore blocked out or
mined and on the dump to more than
pay for the mill. In former years
such rule was necessary for n safe
and conservative mining Investment.
owing TO lack of definite knowledge
of the geological conditions that
generally accompany ore bodies
found in large quantities and the
foundation upon which our pay
mines is based.
In recent years. however. sd-
vances have been made in economic

lating to certain conditions essential
TO the forming OF an ore body and
the result Is that At present time
1t Is recognized by our most expert
xoologists that undeveioped ore
bodies lying at considerable depth
below the surface can he accurately

and resultant paying mines are now
being found In various parts OF the
globe.

GERMAN WORK
ERS LOSING
S-HOUR DAY

By international Labor News Service.
Washington, ID. C, Aug. 9.-The
S-hour workday in Germany is disap-
pearing.
This is the conclusion of r. c. Mil
Ter, assistant chief OF the Western
European Division OF the United
States Department of Commerce,
Mr. Miller points out that the Ger
man workers have waged hard fight
for the S-hour day. but that unem-
ployment has weakened their resist
ance and they have been forced TO
give up the shorter workday.
by DEGREES of November Is, l9iS,
and March Is, 1919, the S-hour day
was established in Germany" says
Mr.. Miller, who continues:
Although attended by the usual
objection on the part Of industry, the
6-hour day came into general exist
ence and encountered little more
than ordinary resistance. However,
after the chaos of the summer OF
1928 the industrialists became more
and more insistent that longer hours
of work would be necessary If indus
trial operations were TO continue pos.
sible. Added force was given to the
contentious by the prevailing de-
moralization of industry, extreme
difficulty of securing raw materials,
credit shortage, and similar obstacles.
Labor fought bitterly against this
removal of one of the chief benefits
which the working classes had gained
from the war. However, the large
numbers of unemployed weakened
the resistance of the workers and the
decree of December 21, 1923, pro-
mulgated on January l, 1924, and
granting numerous executions to the
o-hour day, was the result.
Thus in number of branches in
the leading printing, metallurgicai,
chemical, and textile Industries, prac-
tically prewar working hours are
again in force"
