dren From Detention House.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLARENDON, Va, May 8.-The ex-
ecutive committee of the Organized
Women Voters of Arlington County,
meeting last night at the home of Mrs.

similar institution that might have a
deleterious effect upon normal children
of school age"
The resolution having this effect cites
that it has come to the attention of the
organization through conference be-
tween its representatives and the Ar
lington district member of the board
of supervisors and further through
newspaper reports that it was contem-
plated to establish house of detention
in the now unused building of the
Cherrydale School.
Mrs. Florence E. Cannon was appoint
ed to present the opposition views of
the organization at the hearing before
the chief engineer of the United States
Army tomorrow on the application of
the Sun Oil Co. to establish a wharf
and pier on the Virginia shore of the
Potomac west of the Key Bridge.

John Hays Hammond on Silver
(From Mining Truth

John Hays Hammond, world famous mining engineer, is the author of the leading article in Nations Business for October. Its heading is: Cheap Silver Means Reduced World Buying Power"
 '''The article is commended to those who still believe that sil- yer has sunk to the level of q commodity" and that the eff fort to restore it to prestige as a money metal is hopeless.
 Month by month, more pow erful voices are raised in be- half of the dethroned white metal. Day by day, the resolut- ion is growing in the minds of men to join the demand for sil- yer money. Week by week, the silver army is reinforced by those who have always be- lieved that silver should be re- stored but who were discour- aged by the apparent impossi- bility of the task.
 "Hammond's article is we'll worth pondering. The maga- zine in which it appears-of- ficial publication of the U. s. Chamber of Commerce reach es large group of readers who must be converted to the silver doctrine. They would pay no attention to articles in general business, financial, in- dustrial or mining journals. Hammond's article is carefully and conservatively worded, so as to convince by avoiding the appearance of controversy. A few quotations, however, will serve to show that Mining Truth has not been over-em- phatic in some of it's language. Says Hammond:
 European nations, not content with having demoni- tized silver, recently have heaped other indignities on it. :. !. As though to make the con spiracy for it's own undoing complete, silver has sought in vain for great new industry that would consume quantities

City Fewer Voted Down

In spite of all the agitation for the extension of govern ment and municipal operation of utilities, the idea does not appear to have gained much headway in the United States.
 Hundreds of towns have vot- ed to sell their municipal plants to the larger power companies in the last few years, and the trend is gener- ally away from municipal own- ership, especially in communi- ties which hope for marked in- dustrial development.
 After several years of rather unsatisfactory experience with municipality owned street car lines and other utilities, the voters of San Francisco recent ly defeated a plan to put the city into the power business on a large scale by a decisive vote.

TEN YEARS OR so AGO From the Hyder Alaska Miner,
 November ', 1919.

Confirmation of the reported sale of a big interest in the Pre- mier mine to the Guggenheim and Silverman interests. Re organization had been accomp- lished and plans made for a progressive program of devel- opment, R. K. Neill, general manager, reported in an inter- view.
 It was understood that a 40 per cent interest changed hands. It was expected that the resulting enlarged plans for de- velopment contemplated a rail way to the mine.
 Next week the motorsled ore truck ordered for a try-out by the Premier Gold Mining Go. should arrive on the Prince John. Superintendent w. G. Harris does not anticipate that proper test can be given the new hauling device until about the middle of December, as the heavy snow does not come as a rule before that time. It is the intention to install compressor machinery at the mine about the middle of December and put in power drills.
 An electric light plant h IS been installed and the bunk house, cook house, compressor building and ore sorting shed are now being wired for lights, and lines will be carried to the mine entrances.
