s. F. Chamber Says Support Metal Miners

Purchase Of foreign metals at premium prices by the federal government at a time when its policies are sounding the death knell for domestic strategic metal mines Is vigorously criticized in a resolution passed by the board of directors of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, according to an announcement made today. The resolution which proposes more constructive policies from both an international ard a do- mestic viewpoint was adopted unanimously on recommendation of the chambers mining commit tee of which George B. Dodge Is chairman.
 Domestic metals production has made Americas phenomenal con tribution to the war effort possi- |ble, the chamber says, and. pro- ductive capacity should not be hampered for the duration Of the war. During 1943 the output of metals and minerals in the United States was the greatest in his- tory, exceeding $8.000 900 ,000.
 The chamber claims that the U. s. government policy of buying tungsten, quicksilver, antinony, chromium and other metals from foreign sources is operating great ly to the detriment of domestic producers who have made exten- sive investments at the govern ment's instance and request in or der to develop and produce these metals for the war effort.
 The chamber "deplores this policy as a gross injustice to do- mestic mines, and as one which tsaddles the entire cost of a na- tional foreign policy upon the owners of mines who have made large investments in good faith and reliance upon the govern ment's assurances that they would be permitted to supply United States war needs at compensatory prices, at least, during the pen dency of the war"
 Advocated by the Chamber of Commerce is action by Congress Hooking
 "(D To limiting the prices paid by the United States government to foreign producers of tungsten and quicksilver to the current basic domestic market prices; "(2) To the requirement that foreign purchases by government agencies, of tungsten, quicksilver, chrome, or other ores which taken together with the total current do- mestic production. are in excess of current war needs for domestic

he has served as lay leader and
has taken great interest in every

more worthwhile. His friends
are numbered by all his acquain-

has a1npretentious manner of
greeting his neighbors, his mani
lest interest in the unfortunates
AID above all, his high christian
cflaracter-all these characteris-
sszcs have made impressions upon
all nus friends that time cannot
efface. Therefore, be it resolved:
First. That in the loss of DR.. |
Bunch, the whole county has lost
an outstanding physician-one
iiUved and respected by all his

Second, That as a friend,

Third, That as a consecrated

Fourth, That we commend him
