Much of this copper, nearly all of which

Although Denmark has strictly for

siderable quantities of the much-needed
metal have made their way through
Danish firms Into Germany within the

leaking.
At the opening of the war British
ofllcials believed Holland was also send

Dutch regulations have been changed
and The Netherlands has gained such
control over Its merchants that any
shipments of copper now reaching Ger

lieved by British officials to be incon

it was privileged to ship what copper it
produces wherever it chooses. Previous

SEVERE DRY BILL KILLED

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. IS. The House
of the Arizona legislature today de
feated the Powers bill for the drastic
enforcement of the new prohibition
measure by a vote of IS to 16. A simi
lar measure in the Senate has not yet
come to a vote.
The severity of some provisions of
the Powers bill was deemed by its spon
sors to be responsible for its defeat. It
provides that all beverages containing
one-half of 1 per cent of alcohol should
be considered liquor, and included all
liquids which would produce intoxica
tion. It put a ban on clubs and ex

WAR THOUGHT WORST EVIL

LONDON. Feb. 17. Presiding at a
scientific lecture In London last night.
Viscount Bryee. ex-British Ambassador
to the United States, said that if there
was a chance of ridding the world of
the worst evil of the human race, war,
that chance ought to come now.
"If this doesn't cure us." said Vis
count Brycc. "nothing will."
The speaker ventured the hope that
there would be a stronger feeling for
peace after this war than ever before
and a stronger sense of the detestable
consequences to which the worship of
may bring a great people. If to. he
added, the sacrifice would not be made
in vain.

STONY LOGS UNEARTHED
GRADING OST COLUMBIA HIGHWAY
REVEALS ODDITY,
Onyx-like Petrified Wood, Showing
Grain Plainly, Found Near Bonne
ville Bridge-Bid Day Here.
An entirely new attraction on the
Columbia Highway has been discovered
on a half-mile stretch near Bonneville,
where grading through a cement
gravel formation has unearthed a num
berof petrified logs. Rufus C. Hot
man, chairman of the Board of County
Commissioners, says this feature will
prove of interest to all who traverse
the highway, so unique is the discov
ery. , "
"The great logs have been turned
into stone," said Mr. Holman, "and will
be in plain view in the cuts. Tho grain
of the wood is shown beautifully and
the stone itself is an onyx-like forma
tion. The trees lie from 12 to 25 feet
below the surface of the hills.
Bids will be opened this morning at
11 o'clock for the last bridges to com
plete the highway to the Hood River
County line. There are three spans
of reinforced concrete to be built and
a fourth bridge will be constructed
later, it not having yet been decided
whether tho structure will be of rein
forced concrete or native rock. The
bridges will cost from $40,000 to $50.
000. One, across Pierce Creek, has a
magnificent span 150 feet long. Con
tracts for the bridges call for their
completion by July 1.
Grading along the highway will be
finished within two weeks and then
work on the bridges will commence.
When they are placed the highway
will be ready for paving to the Upper
Sandy River bridge. The proposed
bond Issue for paving then will bo
taken up and. If it carries. It is the
plan of the Commissioners to open up
the road on the east bank of the Sandy
River, which, it is said, will vie with
the Columbia Highway itself in scenic
attractions.
