STUDY MADE
OF CASES ON
RELIEF ROLLS

Intensive study of the 500 cases
yet remaining on the direct relief
rolls of the SRA is being made under
the direction of Homer Miller, I'm
perial county director for the SRA.
In an attempt to place the wage
earners in private employment or
with the WPA.
In carrying out the investiga-
tions, SRA workers will ascertain if
unemployables might be made en-
ployable by means of medical or
surgical aid, Miller said. If the ex-
penditure of necessary sums for
medical or surgical aid might take
certain percentage of the cases
from the relief rolls, he said, a
considerable sum would be saved
and the individuals rehabilitated
Many of the cases still on the
rolls are unable to do heavy labor
and efforts will be made to ascer-
tain if it is possible for them to
handle any kind of light work, Mil
Ter concluded.

MINES IN WEST
GO SCIENTIFIC,
LOSE GLAMOUR

PHOENIX, Arr, Nov. 20. UP)-
Another bit of color of the Old
West is slipping from The stage, in
the person of the old-time pros
pector, mining men say.
Once the picture of the patient
prospector matching patience with
his grey plodding burros was au-
thentic.
No longer is that true-not for
a majority, or even a sizeable per-
centage of the thousands who have
poured back into the gold districts
with the rise in value of the yellow
metal.
Perhaps there are not 100 Of the

pack animal, the burro. once of
some value, is today worth less
than nothing. Hundreds of them
roam the desert wild, particularly
in the western mountain districts.
where they damage ranges and
cause cowmen difficulties.
Become Wild as Deer
AS wild as deer, they are prac-
tically impossible to trap or shoot,
and outSpeed the fleetest horses.
While the prospector's aide has
speeded up and taken to wild
life, the prospector has settled
down. There are perhaps as many
prospectors as ever, but they oper-
ate differently.
No longer driving burros across
the hills in search of gold, most of
them confine their activities to a
single community, or to only few
communities, and move at rare in
terVals. Oftentimes, they will work
years in development of a single
prospect.
The result is that when they do
move, they do SO by train or auto.
Easy Diggings Vanish
Economic factors have contrib
uted TO the passing of the old
method of prospecting. 1t no long
er pays. The most easily discev-
cradle deposits of rich ore having
been taken, it usually requires more
digging and development for claim
to have demonstrable value.
The digging or development can
not be done in a short time, and
SO the prospector chooses a locality
which shows favorable indications,
and settles down to go to work.
With the increased price of gold
and silver, as well as copper, many
who have patiently worked without
leturn for years are now beginning
to realize on their labor. But for
the majority there is still no rain
bow at the end of the trail.
Depended Solely on Luck
This is partly due to several
e S onS. Popular impressions
which assigned geological or min
geological in sight to the prospector
was mostly Wrong-and so were the
prospectors. Many of them, in ad-
dition to being without minerologi-
cal knowledge, were without cap
ital.
To correct the former failing. the
