Fabulous Wealth of
Big Hurrah Mine
Goes to Portland Firm
Articles of Incorporation have
been filed in the office of the ter
ritorial auditor for the Big Hurrah
Mine, which is being operated by
the Alaskan Associates Ltd. of
Portland, Ore., with George Hel
lerich, well-known engineer, in
charge.
For over 30 years mining men
have attempted to pump out the
mine which filled with sea water,
but until now they have been
unsuccessful. Charles D. Lane and
his wife, Anna Lane, the original
owners, were unsuccessful. Their
sons, Tom and Louis Lane, also
tried and lastly the grandson, Tom
Lane Jr., who left here this sum
mer, turning it over to the new
organization.
The fabulous wealth of this
mine has become a legend over
the years and many stories are
told of huge nuggets having been
taken from this property from
time to time. It has proved a chal
lenge to all who have tried to
mine it and this time it looks as
if the time has come for it to pay
off.

> KETCHIKAN, UP) — Gov. B.
Frank Heintzleman says what Al
aska and central British Columbia
need most in the near future is
a system of car ferries to carry
passengers and freight in vans or
railway cars.
Heintzleman advocated car
ferry development in a talk Wed
nesday at the convention here of
central British Columbia Boards
of Trade and Alaska Chambers of
Commerce.
Heintzleman noted a car ferry
system already is used to serve
Ketchikan’s 52-million-dollar pulp
mill, and he said conferences
should be held this year by of
ficials from each side o'f the
border to get a larger plan under
way. He said private carriers can
handle the operation if given
proper help.
The Alaska governor also said
Canada should be encouraged to
build roads up the rivers from
southeastern Alaska to serve both
areas. He said he is sure Alaska
would approve construction of
access roads through the south
east coastal strip to serve Can
adian mines, but he did not men
tion by name the proposed Fro
bisher Ltd. power and metallur
gical project on the Taku River
near Juneau.
An access corridor to the pro
posed Frobisher project is said to
be essential if the power of the
Yukon River headwaters is to be
harnessed on the Canadian side.
W. J. Borrie, Vancouver, B.C.,
president of the Canadian Cham
ber of Commerce, told the con
vention Canada will continue its
supporting role in world affairs
but it wants fair recognition based
on its expanding trade and world
importance.
Borrie said Canada feels quick
ly any change in American tariff
policies and added he hoped lib
eral trade policies would be con
tinued.
Tremendous Earthquake
Nearly Wipes Out Several
Villages In Algeria
ALGIERS, Algeria, UP) — A tre
mendous earthquake early Thurs
day levelled about a fifth of the
city of Orleansville in northern
Algeria and nearly wiped out sev
eral nearby villages. Unofficial
estimates put the number of dead
at 800 and the injured at over
1,000.
Authorities described it as
North Africa’s worst quake in 40
years.
Some unofficial death estimates
ran as high as 1,000. The exact
figures remained uncertain be
cause telephone and telegraph
communications between Algiers
and Orleansville were knocked
out.
One report said that in Orleans
ville alone there were 200 dead
and 1,000 injured. Eyewitnesses
said the city of 32,500 looked as
though it had undergone heavy
air bombardment.
The quake, striking in the mid
dle of the night, trapped the pop
ulations of whole towns and vil
lages in their beds through a 50
mile-wide strip of northern Al
geria.
