President of Utah Copper in Salt Lake Colonel Jackling, President of the Utah Copper Mining Com-pany was a Salt Lake visitor this week and said as to the produc-tion of copper here altho weath-er conditions made work rather slack he could not vouch an op-inion on the prospect of the fu-ture. He also said that a tariff on copper would result in injury to the United States as long as this country was an exporting nation and found plenty of for-eign markets for its consump-tion." The South America copper that is coming to the United States he said is not affecting the local market enough to wor-ry United States mines. The companies in the United States are finding plenty of mar-kets abroad, and as long as it continues to be an exporter of copper there is no need for a tariff.

The demand for lead has been so strong that domestic mining companies have been un-able to fill it. In fact consum-ers have bought heavily of for-eign lead, which has to hurdle a tariff of 2 1-- 8 cents per pound before it can be admitted to this country in the form of bul-lion. This is indeed a period for operating lead mines to full cap-acity or beyond and bringing those lead prospects which have indications of becoming produc-ers to activity. Unfortunately, new lead mines as we have point ed out repeatedly, are scarce. Their development has not kept pace with the increased world-wid- e consumption of the metal. This has caused many well informed observers to an-ticipate permanently high prices for lead hardly at the present level. The situation is discuss-ed at length in the market sec-tions of the newspapers. Lead is an exceedingly useful metal, and there are certain in-dustries, such as storage battery manufacturing in which it is al-most indispensible. The world will doubtless continue to call for more and more lead, but where the added supply is to come from it is difficult to predict. Here is a call to the prospec-tor in every part of the world to make an intensive search for new lead deposits. Wak and Brave. A great deal depends upon a man'i courage when he Is slandered. Weak men are crushed by detraction, but the brave hold on and succeed.
