SILVER IS KING IN ARIZONA
Old and New Mines Are (3eing Opened
After Peace Brought Slump
in Copper.
SIlver Is king again in Arizona, says
. P. 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. One till lion joImndhs
of copper. more than ai third of which
was Arizona prolductlon, ar estlimited
to lie awaitnlag siiale. So copper Is
down and silvir Is upm.
