THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, PHOENIX, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 30, 1921 PAGE THREE. Return of Prosperity in Copper Industry Regarded Sure in View Of Indications of Great Demand By Thomas N. McCauley President Central Copper Company The slump in price of copper is largely due to the patriotic spirit of the leading men in the copper indus try during the war. The domestic demand was neglected to supply the requirements of the allies ror war purposes. In some cases the domestic consumers were induced to substitute other metals for copper and subse quent to the signing of the armistice it was ascertained that the domestic market had been successfully invaded by other metals, and also that many of the largest copper producers had been driven so hard for large produc tion, for war purposes, that the phys ical condition of the properties had been weakened. Considerable time and many mil lions of dollnrs are required to re construct and properly prepare both the old and new ore bodies for eco nomical extraction. Nearly all the large copper producers have been closed down for some time, as the copper surplus was more than one billion pounds soon afer the signing of the armistice. At the present time, omitting about i 300,000,000 pounds held by the Copper Export associa tion for export only, and about 300, 000. 000 pounds in transit and in pro cess of being refined and made ready for market, the probable real surplus of copper today available for home consumption is only about 200,000,000 pounds more than the normal supply. During the present period of non production by the large producers the physical condition of the properties and their equipment are being re newed and mines are being put in order for future economical produc tion. The selling price of copper since 1860 has averaged 19 cents per pound and the cost ot production per pound during that period about 13 cents. The annual production of the metal has shown an Increase of over 8 per cent per annum since the Civil war. and the increasing consumption of copper has kept pace with the in creased production. ' Electric, brass and automobile in dustries have been large consumers of copper. The telephone companies use large amounts of copper wire. The conductivity of copper in carry ing the sound of the human voice is greater than any other metal that can be used for commercial purposes. Ariaona. Utah, Montana, Nevada end Michigan are the principal cop KOFIMST CASA GRANDE, Nov. 26. On Sat urday afternoon, November 19, the Woman's club of Casa Grande held a very interesting meeting in the parlors of the Christian church. Final arangements for the Wom an's club bazaar which is to be held during the next month were made. The bazaar has not yet been definite ly set. but it is probable that it will be some time. before the Christmas holidays. - At the meeting an art program in charge of Mrs. Angela Hammer was given-and a, number of paintings were displayed, which had been sketched by local artists. Among those shown were several handsome etchings by Mrs. Robert Denton, also some from the brush of Mrs. John Crawford, and several by Mrs. C. C. MacMur phey. Mrs. MacMurphey has almost lost her sight, but she is still able to do a little of this work and her paint ings are very fine. Miss Dorothy Sargent, who 'has been attending the Tempe Normal 1 schooL is home for over Thanksgiv- j ing with, her parents. I A. J. Vance and son of Dong. Beach motored over from California the early part of this week and will spend a short time in and about this coun try.

Osterman of Phoenix were regis tered at the Sacaton hotel Thursday.

At the San Carlos hotel the early part of this week were registered Mrs. Eatts and Miss Mary Batts, both of Washington, D. C. The la dies were enroute to Sweetwater, near the Indian reservation, where they expet to rmain for the winter and where Miss Batts will teach.

Miss Lorene Early, who has been spending the past few months in Los Angeles, arrived here last week and will spend some time with her par ents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Early, near town. Mrs. Gretchen Early and four EVE FROM CaSA GR per producing states, with Arizona leading any other three states com bined, as shown by the copper pro duction in 1919. Mining engineers and copper oper ators have been developing new methods of extracting the copper from ores on a more economical basis j than formerly and substituting those methods for smelting at a greatly re duced cost per pound of the metal. Copper cathodes are now being made at the properties by successful producers. The freight and smelting charges have increased the cost to producers. The manufacturing plants consuming large amounts of copper in the manufacture of brass and oth er articles for commercial purposes have been required to pay compara tively high selling prices for the metal. , Some of the large consumers of copper contemplate purchasing and operating their own properties. Large copper producers contemplate build ing their own manufacturing plants at tidewater, to produce cooking utensils, washtubs, chandeliers, hard ware, automobile supplies arid many other articles in large demand. The Copper and Brass Research as sociation will be a valuable factor in the future in providing new and ad ditional markets and uses for copper. The conditions precipitated by the world war are shifting the financial, business and industrial scenes and causing many radical changes, and probably nbne more than in the cop per industry. The construction of a railroad from the great copper fields of Arizona to tidewater, a distance of only about 100 miles, will materially reduce the cost per pound in transporting copper to the Eastern markets on the At lantic seaboard and reduce the selling price of the metal to consumers. When the reconstruction period in Europe has advanced far enough for credits to be fully established in the diiferent countries, their local de mands for copper can be supplied and the domestic demand for the red metal must be greater than ever be fore. It is Just a, question of time until the railroads will electrify their sys tems. This will require about 30,000 pounds of copper per mile. The consumption of copper and the great demand for the metal must ar rive with returning prosperity. It will tax the large producers to the utmost to supply the demand. children of Gilbert also are guests at the Early home. Chester Goodpasture, who has been spending the past few months here with his brother on his homestead, left the early part of the week for Springfield, 111., his old home.

Phoenix, Arizona Review Of The New Books Not in recent years, according to those who are most familiar with books and those who make them, has there been such a diversified and at the same time such a porthy output of fiction as is the case at this time. Almost every published has a novel that stands far out of the ordinary. until the question for the book buyer has become one of how many shall he take instead of which one shall he choose. Russell Freeman, in charge of per haps the most important book depart ment ;n the Southwest, whose ex perience in the book business extends over many years, in commenting upon the new books yesterday, said: "I cannot remember in the book trade the time when such an unus-ial number of wonderfully effective nov els has been on the market. All of our great contemporary authors seem to have excelled themselves in this year's productions, and even the new writers have written volumes which command attention."

"The Shiek" has been praised and blamed, elevated and thrpwn down until it has became easily the most discussed book in America, but whatever its merits or demerits, the fact remains that it is an intensely interesting sfory. full of life and action, and one calculated to keep the reader ab sorbed until the last line has been read. The film version was so dif ferent from the book that those who have not read the volume can do so with no fear that the tale will be twice told. . Standing out beyond the other nov els of the season for pure artistry, skill of workmanship and insinuating theme, The Briary Bush," by Floyd Dell, is worthy the attention of every reader. It has been praised by every critic who has looked at it, and from the angle of the art of novel making it is worth while. The story is that of a modern marriage in which two young lovers try to keep their mutual freedom, with revelations that give them a solider. If not as roseate, background for their lives. Dell will be remembered as the author of "The Moon-Calf." John Galsworthy has, in "To Let," a novel fully up to his usual stand ard and one which is having a good sale here. "The Crystal Heart," by Phyllis Bottome; "Success," by Sam uel Hopkins Adams, and "The Ardent Rover." by Reta Ruck, are three other novels which almost demand perusal. "The Arrant Rover' is a particularly fascinating tale. Ranking with the best of the sea son's productions is "Nightfall," by Anthony Pryde, a sfory which will engross the attention of almost any one who picks it up. Two years ago this author's "Marqueray's Duel" caused a furore in book circles by its tremendous sale a success which was followed last year by the beauti ful and intriguing "Jennie Essenden." The names of these two well known' novels are in themselves proofs of the merit of the new book, which is selling like wild-fire already. Alice Duer Miller's "Manslaughter." which delighted thousands of readers when it appeared in serial form, is still holding jjie attention of book lovers, as is "Tangled Trails," by Wil liam MacLeod Raine, who is now, ac cording to Freeman, a better seller in Arizona than Zane Grey. Louis Jos eph Vance has "Alias the Lone Wolf," which is way out of the ordinary, and a new writer, Arthur P. Hankin, has produced almost a masterpiece in "The Jubilee GirL" E. Phillips Oppenheim has in "The Profeteers" perhaps the best example of his work, as has Ethel M. Dell In "The Obstacle-Race," the story of a girl who found many barriers in her frearch for soul freedom. Olive Wadsley has an odd but likeable story In "Almond Blossoms."

Thergjs one novel, however, that is proving undoubtedly the firest story of the year, and while it is not to be classed as a lato novel, it is of the make-up which keeps a book forever new. This is Rafael Sabatini's "Scaramouche," which has taken rank in the highest place In the world of fiction. The story of a wandering actor during the French Reign of Terror whose adventures, humor, carelessness and shrewdness, carry him safely through the red days of the Revolution, it is one of the finest yarns to be put together in re cent years, and its acquisition meats that something really worth having has been put on the book lovers' shelves. o II N The ladies aid society of the Roose velt district is planning a bazaar and chicken dinner for December S.

A candy booth offering home-made candies is to be one of the tempting sports. The bazaar will be an all day affair, to be held In Neighborhood louse.
