DALI DISSOLVED BY
 ORDER OF DE VALERA:
 ELECTION JANUARY "A

DUBLIN, Ire, Jan. 4,-President De Valera has announced the dis solution of the Dali and called for an election January A.
 The action of the government came as a surprise at time when seven Labor members on whose votes it's majority has depended for several months threatened to bolt over the policy of civil ser vice pay reductions.
 A plan for bonus cuts for civil service employees went into effect Monday despite Labor opposition.
 Opponents of the government seemed to regard the order for dissolution and a new election as a stragetic move by de Valera.
 It was pointed out that former President Cosgrove has a new pol itical party in which he hopes to combine the most powerful anti government clements but that the organization is still uniformed.

IDAHO MINE IDLE 35 YEARS REG|NN|NG
 NEW OPERATIONS

PIERCE, Idaho, Jan. 3, Work was started Monday on the old Ozark quartz property on Rhodes creek after it has been idle for al most 30 years. The Ozark and Ajax claims were discovered and worked by John Gaffney about 35 years ago and at that time net ted substantial profit for the owner. About 1902 the mine was sold to the Wild Rose Mining Company and they did good deal of development work until the Wild Rose mine was discovered and the machinery removed from the Ozark mine to the Wild Rose diggings. Since that time the Ozark group has been idle until a few weeks ago when it was sold by E. B. Steele to some Washing ton men.
 The plans of the new company are to install a rod mill and a fotation process by which they believe they can save 95 per cent of the values.
