McNARY SECURES TARIFF CONCESSIONS
Due to the work of Senator Charles McNary, Oregon lum
ber and Oregon wool will not become pawns in the game of
trade agreements that President floosevelt will probably
soon be engaging with foreign nations under the priveleges
of the new tariff measure.' The measure, giving the chief
executive wide power to raise or lower rates on imports ac
cording to his desire in trade pacts he might enter into with
other countries, has been passed by the senate and goes
;back to the house for minor changes before soon being re
turned to him for his final approval and law.
During recent debate on the measure in the senate, Sen
ator McNary sensed victory for the bill so, gathering the
minority forces behind him tactics wore employed and con
cession's won and agreed to by the administration forces that
exclude lumber, wool, copper, oil and coal products from pro-
; visions ot any trade agreement the president may make under
his new tanit powers.

MINING OUTLOOK BRIGHT
Here's an encouraging paragraph, taken from the Mining
Review of Salt Lake City : "Increasing activity in the metal
mining industry, augmented by $35 gold, and a more favor
able outlook for the other metals, is the gladsome refrain
now growing in volunle and strength from all sections of the
West. A recent survey among 'mure ''than foui' thousand
companies from Arizona to the Canadian border gives defin
ite evidence of a return to activity . . . Assayers are busy
again, old mails are turning wheels that haven't moved in
'more than three years and many new ore treating plants are
; contemplated, smelter receipts show a substantial' increase
in ore shipments, and equipment and supply houses are
; awakening, after a long nap, to realize that there is a grow
ling interest, in their merchandiso." 1 '
Workers, fanners, storekeepers, professional men, indus
trialists of all kinds, will smilo happily on reading that; 'It
i means thousands of potential jobs, a vast jump in Western
purchasing power, a tremendous field for selling services
'i, and commodities of every kind and shape from legal know
f ledge to groceries. And it likewise moans revived tax in-
come for government. The outlook for mining-is better than
it has been for many years. That, in titrn, considerably im
f proves the outlook for recovery in general.
