week.
Based ON election returns, amend
ments restricting to highway use
only revenues received from gaso-
line and other automctive taxes,
passed by vote of three TO one in
Kentucky and six to one in Pennsyl-
vania.
Stevenson attributed the sweep
ing victory accorded the measures
in both Kentucky and Pennsylvania
to desire on the part of the people
to safeguard road funds in order
to insure their availability for high
way construction projects as well
as cushion against imminent pest
war unemployment
Stevenson stated that although
Montana is not at present divert
ing highway funds TO ether psar-
poses, a constitutional amendment
such as has been passed by Hen
lucky and Pennsylvania and LIS
other states of the Union, would
set up a permanent alLtfrne safe
guard against diversion OF such
funds to other than road purposes.
Gasoline license taxes and auto
motive registration fees were In
augurated by this state TO provide
funds for highway construction and
Improvement We should continue
to uphold this sound principle. We
should also go one step farther and
assure once and for all that the
practice we are now following will
never be violated. This step should
be in the form of a Constitutional
amendment forever guaranteeing to
highway users the Integrity OF his
tax dollar paid for highway pur-
poses.
1--WE hope that the people of Mon
tana may be afforded the oppor-
tunity at the earliest possible date
to vote ON such an amendment to
our constitution. All citizens should
support such a move because il
will benefit all.

TRAUERIAAN F0RESEES
HIGH SILVER PRICE

Distinct possibilities of higher
prices for silver are seen by Carl
J. Trauerman, secretary of the Min
ing Association of Montana, in a re-
cent association bulletin which
quotes one of the nations foremost
silver experts as follows:
The present shortage of silver, in
my opinion, will soon force the
price TO a higher level The indus
trial demand during the next IL
months will abOunt to more than
twice as much as the domestic pro-
duction. The coinage demand for
the next five years throughout the
world will be the greatest in its
history.
According to late figures the
United States will this year use
100000, 900 ounces of silver in indus
try against domestic production of
less than 100000 ounces. The
world viii use 125, 0OO, 900 ounces in
industry against world production
this year of 100000 ounces. Re
Gently the OPA advanced foreign
silver from 45c to Tile per ounce
the same as the price for domestic
ally produced silver. Senator Green
of Rhode Island, has introduced a
bill, S. 1903, to extend the privilege
of u. 5. silver manufacturers to bury
surplus treasury silver at not less
than lille per ounce for a @eriod
of two years after January /, 1916.
Senator McCarren of Nevada has
introduced two bills to raise the
present domestic price of silver to
S1.29 per ounce. Our domestic silver
manufacturers are distinctly short
of silver and it seems the only way
to get 1t Is TO stimulate domestic
production by raising the price
Manufacturers using silver hereto
fore have opposed price raising but
some are said at this time to urge
higher prices"

a technical mission to Europe.
The costly tasks of cutting, drill
ing, blasting and loading coal were
completely eliminated In most In
stances by the new invention, DR..
Savers reported. A plow-like ma
chine which shaveS coal from an
underground seam as simply as
carpenters plane trims soft pine
board, the coal planer is capable of
mining 500 tons of coal daily from
single working face, according to in
formation obtained by John w
Buch, supervising engineer of the
bureaus anthracite mechanical min
ing section and one of the bureaus
four solid fuels technicians sent
overseas with the cooperation of
the foreign economic adrninistra-
ton to study European mines, col
lect records and research docu-
ments and interrogate mine per
sonnet.
The coal planer employs the same
principle as the ordinary wood
plane, from which the Germans OBJ
tanned the name Kohlen-hobel, Buch
reported. Taking a 12-inch slice
from the lower third of the coal
seam, the planer loads onto a chain
conveyor as 1t Is pulled along $50
foot long wall of coal by 10 ton
test wire ropes mounted on electric
or compressed air hoists. The upper
two-thirds of the seam caves over
the planer and into the automatic
loading troughs.
About Is feet in length, the coal
planer actually is two units in one,
Id - Il
bolts and shock absorbing springs.
Each has its manganese steel plow-
share cutting blade and loading
trough but they face in opposite
directions, permitting cut to be
taken from the coal face each time
the planer shuttles back and forth.
The planer used in hard bituminous
coal employees four or more pneu-
matte bits and adaptation of the
jackhammer instead of a single
cutting blade.
In mines where conditions per-
mitted its use, coal was broken so
rapidly by the planer that the
Germans experienced difficulty in
conveying 1t, and they also en-
countered problems in organizing
other work, such as timbering and
backfilling, to keep pace with the
machine. The planer is perhaps best
adapted to the longwail system of
mining, which Is not now widely
used In this country, and 1t op-
crates most efficiently in seam
of solid coal where rock partings
or dividers will not prevent the
upper part of the coal bed from
caving as it is undermined by the
cutting blade

after the last war"
Senator Ellender said he spoke

enterprise" but emphasized that
