Reliilger. presldenit of the As soclatioll of Arizoina Mlliiing Menl, ne cording to the Philadelphial Ledger's Phoenix correspondent. Wiith the Cop per market stagnant its a result of Ithe Cessation of wIl rrequirements, the dIe mids for white mtetal ire pourinig in from all quarters of the globe. Many of the producers are replacing their copper handling equipment with plants to turn out sliver. "There Is a big demnid for sliver In China and India," says George D. Bethune of Glohe. "The 'nited States government Is filling It at $1 an ountce, the same price at whl<4d It Is supplying 200,000,000 ounces of the metal to the British government on contract." , Years ago, when Tombstone was at the height of Its fame, Arizona was a great silver producer. Then came the slump. Copper was discovered. Last year, according to the estimate ofl the United States geological survey, Ari zona produced $102,000,000 worth of copper. "Give us copper," was the cry from the United States and the allies. With the armistlee conditIons changed overnight.
