Copper Price Spurs Attack on Mountain _ BINGHAM, Utah, niay 13.—Utah’s ; 2 most famous mountain, like peaks Festival Queen the world over, was moulded by | nature but the price of copper de-\ termines its contour. Under the stimulus of improved red metal quotations, steam shov- | els are eating into this mountain of copper and, little by little, changing | its form. The Utah Copper company, which | operates this property, has been | | the world’s ranking producer of the | red metal the last three years. Its| 1928 production amounted to 273,- 800,000 pounds, or 136900 short tons, of refined marketable cop- per.

The General Motors” recent pur- thase of & ¢ontrolling interest in the Opel automobile plant at Rus- | selsheim, followed by the launching in Berlin of the American-Euro- pean talking movie combipe and | by tépeated rumors of Ford ex- pansion pléns through purchase of the Brennabor plant at Bran- denburg’ have aroused hopes that Germany will play a star role in Europe'’s economic future. The American automobile indus- try leads all foreign enterprises in size and investment In the Ger- 3 In addition to the enormous number of American sales agencies in all parts of the country, eight leading American motor car firms have assembling These are Chrysler at Berlin, General Motors, at Borsigwalde, the Overland plant at Adlershof in con- nection with the English Crossley company, Hudson-Essex and Dur- ant at Spandau, Graham-Page at Johannisthal . and Studebaker at Hamburg A total of 14500 or more than 22 per camt of all American cars as- figures are available, were built in Germany. The present Ford plant here is | planned to turn out 20,000 cars an- nually. American automobile body making is being introduced in Ger- many by the Ambi-Budd company. The only other foreign business in Germany that compares with the American motor industry, is the Dutch-English margarine and oil group. The later handles three- fourths of the entire margarine production and two-thirds of the oil production of Germany. Other American enterprises rep- resented by German branches in- clude soap factories, sewing ma- chines, electrical household de- vices, refrigerators, floor polishers and vacuum cleaners. Similarly, in the safety razor in- dustry American interests have a strong position. —_—————— QUITS POLITICS Charles Koen, the democratic war horse of St. Michael, has quit poli- tics, at least for a while, and is now engaged in the commercial acquisition of dollars, as he has accepted the position of Agent for the Northern Commercial Company at.

George A. Parks. None of them were important and sub- jects covered by two of them are already provided for, it was said. A Senate measure undertaking to make surveys of mining claims ap- plicable as annual assessment work was not approved. This provision, said the Governor, was in conflict with Federal statutes on the sub- ject. A bill, by Mr. Ziegler alloting $5,000 from the First Division road fund for building a road between Tongass Highway and a cemetery proval. The road program for 'the current season, includes this work, the Governor said, making the allotment by the Legislature unnecessary. The third measure failing to get the Governcr's approval was a bill appropriating $1,500 to build a sidewalk on the beach and drain swamps at Kotzebue. The title to the measure, the Governor said, ject matter of the bill. For this reascn, he did not sign it. SMOKER GIVES FANS 600D RUN Three technical kayos, a decision, well-earned, and a draw featured | Saturday night's fight card spon-| sored by the Fair Athletic Associa- tion. There was a fair-sized crowd that got a good run for its dinero. Chester Willis, Wrangell Indian, won from Joe Leyson, clever Fili- pino boxer, via the technical knock- out route. Leyson's seconds threw ! in the towel in e middle of the| sixth and final round to save their | man from further punishment. Ley- | son was apparently outweighed by more than the announced five pounds. In the semi-final event, Jack Cas- tello pounded out a cear cut vic-| tory over the Texas Flash. In fact| the latter was willing to sit and| let Jack carry on alone and did so early in the fourth round. Kid Saraby had his man—Kid Villa Pancho—outclassed. In the| third round the battler with the reversed bandit name had more | than enough anc nis seconds mer- | cifully tossed the towel into the| ring and hostilities ceased. Speedy Dadong boxed and fought his way to a wel rned decision over Kid Vilarde the first bout on the card. Ii went the full four rounds. Young Nash and Kid Hollywood danced through four rounds to a draw. Neither man was hurt by is exercise. The battle royal with three men in the ring furnished both amuse- ment and excitement. All were little brown brothers with names longer than they were and the en- counter was a survival of the fit- test. It only went for one round,| haymakers ending it early and in fine shape.
