In time of war the mining and smelting of copper, so greatly needed in mili tary operation, is fighting for the country as much as making muni tions or guns or equipment or going to the front. An agitator or any one else who endeavors to close mines in order to curtail the output of copper Is doing an act that is unpatriotic and disloyal and is operating as an enemy to the country. The strikes in the mining sections of the west are not directed against the mining companies so much as against the government of the Unit ed States. In realty It Is a blow at the country. An abundance of copper Is a help to the United States of great Im portance In its war operations. A shortage of copper In of material as sistance to Germany. To Incite a strike in the copper mines Is playing the game of the nation's enemies; It Is an act of treason to the United States under the circumstances and conditions.
