HELP TO INDUSTRY
i Modern gold mining and mill
ing methods are largely respon
sible for the substantial gold pro
duction of the world. The handi
cap that had been placed on com
pany operations in the United
States, thru restrictive laws, nu
merous reports, increased book
keeping and other red tape, has
caused men to hesitate before
forming a company. There are
fewer new companies in the field
but the production of gold is at a
I high level and gives promise of
| increasing. Gold mining is caus
ing many new operators to launch
new companies and add to the
employment and prosperity of the
nation in the face of red tape
rules.
j The auto truck, airplanes, good
* roads and modern m ining and
milling equipment make gold min
ing today much more attractive
than it was in former days. New
placer machinery saves gold that
was formerly lost. Economical
| power drills and electric haul
age add to the profit from ore
reserves. Floatation mills add val
ue to the certain ores where there
was formerly a penalty. Modern
mills and smelters compete for the
,'ore production of many districts
jand this competition adds to the
■profits of the producer thru bet
j ter facilities
Gold production is large but the
metal is so scarce that we never
isee a gold piece. There seems to
be a financial battle under way
for the gold of the world and
find England’s leading financier
in the United States, evidently for
the purpose of prying this na
tion away from part of its gold
reserve. It would be an excellent
time to call the visitor’s atten
tion to the sad mess his nation
has made of world commerce.
England has thrown the monetary
silver of the world out of balance
thru dumping the metal of India
and the debasing of English sil
ver coin.

WORK BE SUSPENDED
The special mineral investigations
which have been under way during
the season by the several parties
of the U. S. Geological Survey, with
the object of developing tonnage
for the Alaska Railroad, are being
suspended for the year with the
approach of cold weather in the
various districts which are being
investigated, says the Anchorage
Times.
William Kidd, 31 years old, a
miner, died in Juneau recently, ct

GOLD SUPPLY IN THE
O.S. IS GREATEST IN
HISTORY OF NOTION
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Sept. 18. UP)
—Interrupted by the rush to richer
fields in California in ‘49 and
again by the civil war, gold min
ing is being resumed in the Ap
palachians.
Lower production costs as a re
sult of deflated prices of materials
and machinery promise to make
abandoned mines more profitable.
In Mecklenburg county. North
Carolina, shafts dug by slaves are
being cleared on the Frank King
farm.
Less than a mile away is the
Capp’s Hill mine which yielded
more than $2,500,000 of gold ore in
its day, more than 25 years ago
Near by also is the old Hovey mine.
Near Rockwood, Tenn., A. K.
Johnson, a doctor, is digging a tun
nel into an old cave. He claims to
have come into possession by an
old bearskin map by Chief Owl, an
old Indian whom he befriended.
Digging has been resumed in the
Coker Creek district in Monroe
county, Tennesee
In the Dahlonega field, Georgia,
one operation alone has resulted in
the sale of more than $40,000 of
geld to jewelers in the past five
years.
