Copper interests have been hit hard the past few months because of the low price of the red metal, but the mine owners aild smeltermen have faith in the future, and the market in- dicates that there will be a general upward movement in the near future. mark Lead has gone over the with a strong market in demand and predictions are out for a much higher nt price. Silver has been hovering around 63 and 64 cents. Mining interests are confident that as soon as some of the European nations go back to silver for a money medium, the price will go up considerable. It will be impossible for any of the foreign nations to continue much longer upon their paper basis. They must have silver and gold to do business in the world markets, and this condition will be brought about within the next year. Miners of the Alta, Cottonwood and American Fork districts are now waiting for the snows to melt off the roads in order that ore shipments may begin.

The growth of this country and general industrial activity is shown by the continued demand for the service furnished by electric light, power, gas and telephone companies. A specific illustration is the American Telephone and Telegraph company and associated companies. 1923 was a record-breakin- g year for the system, when it expended over $240,000,000 to enlarge and improve its service.
