entire mountain Is being blown away
In twenty-three terraces, each flixty
feet high, in a. spectacular low-cost
search for copper, zinc, lead and, in
cidentally, silver.
The folders say 2.400 men are em
ployed here, but Joe saya there are
about 800, and he knows. Their pay
depends on the price of copper, not
silver. Consequently they -get little
right now. But they are working
twenty-four daya a month, whereas
they were working twelve during the
depression.
To Joe. silver and gold are only
ornament ores to sell to tourists. Cop
per la the real metallic base of his
economic life, and. in fact, of nearly
all silver and gold mining areas.
Joe's personal observations can be
confirmed by the sharpest mining
authority In the state of Utah. Any
unquestionable authority will tell
you confidentially that the adminis
tration could forget about gold and
silver as far as this region Is econ
omically concerned. If It would boost
the price of copper to twelve cents a
pound. (It Is now between eight and
nine cents.)
The New Dealers could also forget
about sliver If they could Induce the
people of the midwest to paint their
homes, factories end stores, thus us
ing lead, of which silver also is an
incidental by-product.
The trouble Is It Is not profitable
to mine a lot of copper and lend Just
to sell the sliver to the government
at a subsidized price. It might be
profitable If the government boosted
the silver price to its goal of 1.20
an ounce, but few mining operations
here desire that. It would mean the
storing up of copper and lead, thus
possibly Influencing the price of these
more Important commercial metals
adversely.
What the most prominent silver
authorities here want Is a lot less
than the sliver senators havo been
contending in Washington.
The mine owners would be content
to know right now that Treasure?

Autoist Forced To Drive :
Men From Olympia To;
Spot Near Grants Pass I
Left Gagged, Tied To Tree
B. A. Garner, 49, of Vancouver, j
Wash., la recovering today In a
Medford hotel after a harrowing ex-
perlence he was forced through, at'
the point of a gun, by two hitch- ;
hikers he had befriended near Olym- ;
pi a, Wash., last night. The two took !
his car from him, forced him Into
the back seat and drove south Into
Oregon.
At Eugene they abandoned Gar
ner's machine, which was out of
gasoline and missing badly, and
stole another from the streets of
that city. At 4:00 o'clock this morn
ing, about four miles north ot
Grants Pass, they forced hlra out
of the stolen auto, bound him to a
pole with ropes, gagged htm. and
after threatening to kill him, left
him and proceeded south.
Block Highways
Garner succeeded tn squirming
loose, and walked Into Grants Pass,
where he notified state police. All
roads and highways were immed
iately blocked, and It Is the belief
of state police that the two men,
both described as about 25 or i!6
years old. one tall and dark and
the other smaller and shorter, could
not have escaped the country.
State police are working on the
possibility that the two are the
same men that shot and killed
Deputy Sheriff Loll near Portland
Sunday morning. It Is believed that
the two may have driven north
Into Washington after the fatal
shooting, and taken that means ot
doubling back on their trail to avoid
apprehension.
Garner stated here today that
the two seemed familiar with the
streets of Portland, and both men
were armed. When the trio stopped
for gasoline near Eugene last night,
they gave Garner a cigarette, with
the remark "You'd better enjoy that
one, buddy. It's the last one you'll
ever (smoke." Again.' as they tied
him to the pole, they sneerlngly
told him to watt until the state
police came for him. "We'll 'tell 'em
where you are when we get to Med
ford," Garner recalled the men say
ing. They took the number of a
nearby telephone pole, apparently
for this purpose, but they did not
notify police here. It was learned.
Threatened Ufe
It was while he was tied to the
pole that the second threat against
Qarner's life was made. One of the
men, leveling a gun at Qarner's
head, said: "Well, good-bye. old pal."
and then apparently thinking better
of the matter, laughed and walked
away.
All roads In southern Oregon and
northern California are being guard
ed today. When the two are ap
prehended, a charge of kidnaping,
carrying the death penalty under
the recently enacted Lindbergh law,
will be lodged against them, state
police said. It will also be possible
to file a robbery charge against
them, they having taken a purse
from Garner, containing "less than
$50," he told police.
Garner's car was discovered this
morning on the streets of Eugene,
exactly where It had been aban
doned. The car in which the two
disappeared near Grants Pass was
described asta 1927 Studcbaker se

Week-End Drunks

approximately two years, the city
