MINE In NEED OF
$50 MORE MINERS

Expanding its operations to meet
government demands for metals, the
ST. Joseph Lead g. Zinc Co. mine at
HughesVille will increase wages and
employ more than $50 additional
miners, according TO Manager r. H.
Skeels.
Wages Of underground workers win
be boosted from s625 to 81 a day,
Skeel said Surface workers win be
paid 1925 a day for common labors
and upwards for skilled workers.
The new wage schedule is expected
TO alleviate a labor shortage which
has existed for some time at the
mines. More than $50 men now are
employed at the workings and efforts
will be made to increase the personnel
to more than 300.
st. Joseph placed its Hughesville
holdings in production late In May
after spending several months rehabil-
itating and removing water from mine
tunnels. Renovation work, including
underground ventilation, has been
completed.
Emphasizing the need for more
workers, Skeel declared the company
hopes to produce more than 5000 tons
Of zinc and 10000 tons Of lead this
year. Eventually this will be boosted
considerably, he said
Accommodations for miners and
their families are being provided
through housing program now under
by the company. The
project, being built at cost Of up
wards of $4,000, includes 40 units Of
four rooms each for families Of
workers.

u. S. MAY MAKE
GEO SURVEYS OF
PUBLIC LANDS

Geophysical surveys Of public lands
by the federal government may be
planned by the office OF Petroleum
Co-ordinator, it was limited Ia the re-
cent hearing of the Committee on
Public Lands and Surveys Of the q. s.
senate. Such a plan was suggested by
Everett Lee DeGolyer. assistant dep
uty co-ordinator.
r. w. Shannon, chairman OF the
production committee for district No.
4 Of the OPC, said the price differ
entails IN the Rocky mountain areas
are unfair. 1t was agreed by commit
tee members that prevailing prices are
one Of the major obstacles in the dis
covery effort for petroleum.
DeGolyer said in the course Of his
testimony:
The point that I wanted TO make
with regard to the public lands In the
Rocky mountain states is that these
other structures which may and prob
ably do exist viii be found only by
geophysical surveys. The geophysical
methods are relatively pretty expen-
sive. Independents use them to some
extent but not generally. Generally it
Is a big company job. The only sug-
gestion I have to make to meet that
difficulty Is that if on account of its
cost it is too big job for the indie
pendent, and if the independent is to
still have his opportunity at it, the
examination viii probably have to be
made by the government, and I think
that that is a thing that is worthy Of
consideration"

The rubber situation-the most ex-
plosive factor in the American con-
duct of the war-was still too hot for
President Roosevelt this week and he
declined to accompany his veto Of the
"alky" rubber agency bill with an ex-
position of the rubber situation.
Meantime, war broke out on local
front as the Cascade county tire ra-
tioning board resigned because the
government paid no attention to the
boards requests or recommendations.
The careful effort of the board in
compiling reports and preparing data
on local needs ended up, month after
month, in someone's wastepaper baS-
ket, it appeared to the board, so all
three members wired in their resig-
nations. Cascade county Is without
tire rationing board-but 1t doesn't
make much difference.
While the politicians are trying to
somehow capitalize the situation, the
oil industry has gone into high gear
In the manufacture Of synthetic rubber
and President w. s. Parish Of the
Standard of New Jersey told a house
subcommittee that faster processes
have been developed, to produce 34,-
100000 more automobile tires than
were expected, by the end of 1914.
Synthetic rubber will be better on the
whole than natural rubber and
whereas all of this new rubber will
go to the military, 1t means that de-
spite the politicians the army and navy
viii have adequate rubber.
1t is understood that the veto of
the bill to create a separate alky-
rubber agency carried a promise to
use a greater amount of alcohol from
agricultural products for making rub
Der in the future Meantime there will
be no interruption of the program
whereby petroleum products will be
swiftly converted into rubber.
