Chilean treaty Siirs
Arizona Mass Meetings
Citizens Condemn Proposed Re-
duction in Copper Tariff.
Denver POST

Denver POST
PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. %, 1885,
CA. P.)-Leaders in Arizona's des-
perate fight against proposed reduc-
ton of the copper tariff through a
reciprocal trade treaty with Chile
expressed the belief Thursday state
wide mass meeting protests would
be an important factor in the oppo-
sition to the state departments con-
templated action.
Resolutions condemning sugges-
tons that the tariff be decreased
vert adopted Wednesday night by
thousands of Arizonans, alarmed at
the danger to the states largest in
dustry, at about l25 community pro-
test gatherings.
The gross income from the Ari-
iona copper industry is about 14O
million dollars annually, Charles F.
Willis, editor of a mining journal,
told listeners at a Phoenix protest
meeting, and producers spend about
70 million dollars yearly within the
state.
Destruction of Industry Foreseen
Complete destruction" would
come to the Arizona industry, upon
which a large per cent of the states
population is either directly or in
directly dependent, if the present
Accent tariff were cut 2 cents per
pound, Willis declared.
"A 2 cent reduction in this tax as
proposed in the treaty Immediately
would reduce the pay rolls of Ari-
IONA mines 2 million dollars annual
ly," he said. But that would not
be all. Our mines cannot pay So a
day for eight hours work, pay social
security and old-age benefit taxes
and still compete with mines which
pay a daily wage of $3.50 in Chile,
ST just across the border in Mexico
and so cents in South Africa"
Production Cost Lower in Chile
Opening the door of the United
States copper market to Chile would
mean opening it to all the world
with subsequent benefits to every
nation except the United States and
Germany, Willis continued.
A government survey, the speak
er claimed, showed that the average
cost of producing copper in Chile
over a ten-year period was 81 cents
less per pound than the Arizona
average.

The senator said Wednesday night
he was particularly concerned over
the effect the proposed treaty would
have on the southwestern New Mex
leo copper district.

Do You Know Thai!

l. In 1880 it was the vote of Sill
yer Bow county that insured the
passage of the university millage
tax?
2. In 1910 this millage tax will
come up again, for vote of the peo-
pie of Montana?
3. The university depends very
definitely on the passage of this
measure, for its funds?
A. Labor's vote is now five times
as large as it was in 1890 when with
out labor's vote the millage tax
would not have been passed?
5. If DR.. G. F. Simmons is still
president of Montana U in 1910 labor
will probably not vote for the mill
age tax?
6. The state convention of the
Farmers Union went on record, after
careful investigation, as demanding
the dismissal of President Simmons?
7. The chairman of the legislative
committee for investigation of the
university, G. M. Moss, who still has
the duty of reporting findings to the
Legislature, has been St" q. forced to
the conclusion that DR.. Simmons &.
has failed as a successful admins
TRAITOR, and that the state board of
education would make a mistake to
retain his services in his present
capacity beyond the current aca-
demic year.
8, One of Montana University's
most distinguished alumni, winner of
the Nobel prize and many other sci
entific honors, DR.. Harold c. Urey,
executive officer of the department
of chemistry at Columbia Universe
ty, has written to Governor Ayers
that. "The very existence of these
difficulties enumerated by your
committee shows that DR.. Simmons
has failed as a president of the uni
versity." (The difficulties enumer-
ated refer to the so-called eight
finds of fact" reported by the Bor-
toni osman committee of the state
board at the September II board
meeting that called for the resigna-
tons Of the five professors.)
8. According to a faculty pol
taken in Missoula this fall by three
neutrals, men of unquestioned in
tegrity, only 10 per cent of the uni
versity faculty voted for the present
administrative policies? (Reverend
Bennett of the Episcopal church.
Reverend Bennett of the university
church and DR.. T. T. Rider took this
secret poll)
10. Senator B. K. Wheeler has
written to DR.. Simmons urging due
process for the five professors, and
been told by him that two of the
cases are closed, although the board
has not yet passed on them.
II. The state board will meet in
Helena on December II and IL for
its regular quarterly session, from
which citizens have a right to expect
an explanation of the present uni
versity situation, and an attempt tc
correct it according to methods ac-
ceptable in a democracy.
u. If the state board delays a So
luton of the ~university's present
administrative difficulties beyond
this meeting, the affair will prob
ably develop into a national as well
as a state issue involving not only
academic freedom and tenure rights
but basic civil liberty rights as well

Mobilization, In 1914 And In 1899

THE general mobilization that is taking place in
Europe today is another evidence of how the world
has changed since 1914
In those primitive days, general mobilization was
everywhere considered the next thing to war itself
1t was only after the Russians modified that war
became inevitable. German ythen insisted that it
must mobilize to protect itself, and the others fol-
lowed. Everybody conceded that once the great
armies had actually been set in motion it was too late
to avert war.
Today, or sometime before the end of the month";
Europe will have eight million men standing to arms
They call it maneuvers, but it is nothing less than
general mobilization.
Yet is by no means certain. It may happen
and there private tips circulating to the effect
that the end Of August will also see the beginning of
the end of civilization, that is war.
But it is by no means certain. We in the midst
OF period of white war, technique whereby
nations try to down the nerves of one another by
constant and continuing threat of war. These tactics
are especially effective in these days when war; the
very day it begins, will show it's ugly face at every
mans front door.
Nobody wants war-that is, the German people
don't want it, the French people don't want it, the
British, Polish Italian and Russian people don't want
it. But the aim of the leaders apparently is to make
the threat so present. so menacingy close as to
wear down the nerves and endurance of the oppos-
ing side that it will at last yield without fight.
1t worked year ago. Today it is by no means GER
tain The Poles have shown sign of nerves as yet
The "alhes are far better prepared than year ago
Iher nerves. too, are less shaken Europe is Tar less

day than it was when thin tricke of troops passed

Wise Words

TODAY and yesterday, tomorrow and thereafter,
brings to us the constant plea of "be patient"
How hard it is to obey, how difficult to heed the
warning of patience and it's virtue. There is the wis
dom of words and quality of genius in the obeyng.
From childhood comes to us from lips we love,
"you must be patient From adulthood we speak
the to those we love- The man who is wise pays
heed
The Bible gives the counsel of patience and the
things to be accomplished through it.
There may be patience for evil, but patience for
good is the right sort of staying power Too bad, that
too late we appreciate the wisdom of the quality and
too often are too busy to try it out.
We notice that the man in Nogales who gives up
smoking usually takes to growing in place of it.

THE STRATEGIC CARIBBEAN

The increasing strategic Importance
of the Caribbean area in the defense of the
United States is emphasized by the ap-
pointment of Admiral William D. Leahy,
now Chief of Naval Operations, to succeed
Governor Winship.
That Puerto Rico is to be main link
in the defensive chain in the Atlantic
ocean is evident in the decision to place
the island under the jurisdiction of the
Navy.
The Army is also establishing major
air base on the island and last week Brig
Gen. George C. Marshall, recently desig-
mated as Army Chief of Staff, on his way
to Brazil, took time to inspect proposed
sites for the aerial center.
Readers may wonder why the United
States suddenly finds it necessary to make
Puerto Rico an island stronghold. 1t is
plain that responsible leaders of this coun-
try are convinced that the possibility of
danger exists in the Atlantic ocean. This
is contrasted with the fact that, during the
World War, no need was seen for any un-
usual development of the island.
The answer, we think, comes when
one realizes the tremendous strides that
have been made in aviation. AS Gen. Mar
shall says. New strategic lines of defense,
far in advance of those heretofore con-
sidered adequate, have now become neces-
sary." One reason for this is the pos
sibility that the totalitarian powers may
win war in Europe.

fact, the present Congress is APP
propriating much more money
