After four successive increases in wages—amount- ing to $1.25 daily in Montana mining districts and 25 per cent. of wages prior to October 1 in most f the other Western camps—the copper porducing companies have posted notices of decreases in wages effective May 1, as the result of the failure of the price of copper to stay above 19 cents a pound in the New York market. This decrease was ex- pected, the third increase, made effective in March, was accompanied by a notice to the effect that it would remain in force only so long as copper stayed above 19 cents. The decrease amounts to 25 cents daily in Montana districts and to 5 per cent. of wages prior to October 1, 1928, in the zona districts. In Nevada and Utah the de- ° is made in proportion to the wage. Miners’ con t prices have /been adjusted accordingly. The basic daily wage in Butte, after the reduction takes place, will be $5.75-daily, the highest in any period up to this year. H. G. Wells on World Peace. (Manchester Guardian.) Mr. Wells said in the Reichstag on Monday, with the admirable force and lucidity which never desert him, some things well worth saying on the subject of the desire for world peace and the drift away from it The desire by itself will never bring peace. “Many living and sensitive and possibly, resentful obstructions” have to be removed, and above all the difficulty of the sovereign independ- ence of States The Kellogg Pact and the rest amount to no more than “faith-healing.” Ten years of that “are enough.
