UTAH COPPER WILL i RAISE DIVIDENDS The Utah Copper Co. has j : posted a dividend of $1.00 per 1 share payable March the 31st, -- ., declaration of the $1.00 divi- - I -- tlend doubles the rate which has I vbeen paid quarterly since the f shut-dow- n in 1921, when the disbursment to stockholders was J cut of 50 cents per share. Dur-- I ing the war the Utah Copper i Co. paid $1.50 per share. Increase of dividend rate by 3 the company reflects the im-'- I provement that has been made irt the copper industry during recent months. April of last A year the company started work-- 4 ing its Arthur mill. During the summer work of remodeling the 1 Magna mill into a flotation plant ' 1 .similar to the Arthur mill was , started and each unit as com- - pleted has been put into opera- - tion, the last report was that I five of twelve planned units were working. i An annual report of the com- - j pany for 1922 has not yet been I issued. The report for the third I quarter of last year showed $ Utah Copper net cost after al-- j lowing for gold and silver, in- - r eluding all fixed and general i charges but not including fed- - i eral taxes at about 8.50 cents a i pounds. During the past week I the copper market ha3 showed ? a marked advance, the present I price being 17 cents a pound. I Increase of the dividend of I the Utah Copper company for the current quarter' from 50 cents to $1 a share advances the quarterly disbursements from .$812,245 to $1,624,490 and the $ .grand total of disbursements to $120,437,357.60. Fifty cents a V - .sKaf e has' been the dividend rate I since the second quarter of 1921 when it was reduced from $1. i of Knights of Phythias also a member of the Order of Rune-ber- g, Lodge No. 113.

Metal prices are exceptionally good but it is conceded that lead is in the most favorable position, the fact that Mexico is believed to' have reached the limit of pro-duction gives assurance of the prevailing high price for many months. In the 'silver-lea- d camps of Utah the incentive for rapid production is double; the time is approaching when silver will have to compete in the world market instead of selling for $1.00 under the terms of the Pittman act and lead is at its highest point for more than two years. In southeast Mis-souri mining companies are con-sidering the advisability of in-creasing the wage of miners as the only means for obtaining an adequate force to mine an increased tonnage. So in the words of Monsieur Coue we might describe the metal min--; ing situation as "Better and Better every day in every way." Under existing conditions cap-- able maehinemen are hard to' get and although an attempt may be made to lift the draw- - . gates and admit a new flood of immigration to this country,' it : seems as a whole the nation is pretty well satisfied with the present .'restrictions.' Lowered ' cost of production is indeed a desirable thing, but not a price ) present immigation laws are ; pf American standards. The i present immigration laws are "That the number of aliens who may be admitted under the im-- ; migration laws of the United " ' States in any fiscal year be lim- - ited to 3 per centum of the num- -, ber of foreign-bor- a persbns of' such nationality resident in the United States as determined by the United States census of 1910." . , BINGHAM BOYS PLAY IN STATE BASKET-BAL- L TOURNAMENT Before an estimated number of 3,500 spectators the Bingham High School basket bailers played an easy game with the boys who are accused of eating too many carrots, we mean Moroni, at the Deseret Gym on Wednesday evening. The Bing-ham boys turned in the largest score of the day, winning 56 to 31. Before the last half of the grame had been played a large number of the fans started to move out, feeling there would not be sufficient entertainment, after seeing the former lively battle of the West-Dixi- e. The first half ended with a score of 29 to 13 favoring Bingham. The Bingham players had little com-petition and did not need to put any extra effort into the battle. Chiara played a fast game of ball throughout, scoring seven field goals, Stillman and Gayth-wait- e and Thomas also played excellent ball. The score: Bingham G. T. F. P.
