TWO SPECIALISTS OF DEPART
MENT COMMERCE SUMMAR
IZE RESOURCES
WASHINGTON, Aug., 3, (/P)—1The
dependence of nations on one an
other for minerals and the interna
tional commerce which has been
developed as a consequence is
shown in a survey of world miner
al resources and trade made by
Dr. J. W. Furness, chief of the min
eral division of the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce, and
L. M jrmp.c 0f the bureau of mines.
The United States, according to
the announcement of the comple
tion of the survev made public bv
the department of commerce, is the
largest comsumer of mineral raw
material and is the la'^st produc
er, but no country has a well
balanced supply of mineral'!. As
an importer of minerals the United
States is the vital factor in the in
ternational trade and the condition
of world trade in minerals is large
ly dependent upon the business
conditions in the United States,
the investigator concluded.

The dependence of the nations of
the world on one another for their
supplies of important minerals en
tering industry is strikingly reveal
ed in a study of mineral raw ma

Commerce has just issued. This
; survey which covers 28 minerals is
|the joint work of Dr. J. W. Furness,
,and L. M. Jones. The 28 minerals
'discussed, it is pointed out, consti
tute more than 70 percent of the
gross value of mineral raw mater
ials of commerce.
Eighty percent of the world’s
total mineral output, the survey
shows, is consumed by eight coun
tries and these together exercise al
most complete control over the
commerce and exploitation of the
world’s mineral wealth. The lead
ing countries are United States,
Germany, Japan, Belgium, Italy
and Spain.

SPRINGFIELD. Mass., Aug. 2,
(/P)—Destruction of the summit
house on Mt. Tom, in the Con
necticut valley, caused conster
nation among fliers, not because
they landed or stopped there but
because the lights had become
a natural beacbn.
Installation of lights over the
fire-swept ruins for the benefit
of sightseers has - alleviated the \
situation as far as the aviators
are concerned. The new lights
can be seen in a radius of more
than 20 miles. By day the peak
stands out although there is no
gilded dome now to reflect the
sun’s rays.
O. A. Braafladt, who has been
practicing dentistry at Fairbanks
for the past five years, is now at
Nome.

SMOKED SALMON
Smoked salmon, on account of its
perishability and the 'relatively
staple nature of the raw product
(salted salmon), is prepared chiefly
in the large consuming centers.
There is an extensive market for it
in the United States, but imports
even when duty free never exceed
ed three percent cf domestic con
sumption. Factors that favor pro
duction in the large consuming
centers apparently preclude exten
sive imports, altho improvements
in preserving processes may lead to
substantial foreign competition.
1,000 MILE “MUSH”
The recent trip of Ross Kinney,
Nome superintendent of the Alas
ka Road Commission, and Guy C.
Boyd, was in itself an Odessy and
would need a master artist to do it
justice. Traveling over a territory,
an empire in extent, over-coming
obstacles that would turn aside
men of weaker caliber, they spent
48 days on the trail, averaging
when they traveled, 30 miles a day
and averaging thruout the trip 20
miles, and covering 1.000 miles of
trael- When it is taken into con
sideration that a good deal of this
was done over unbroken trails and
under adverse conditions, it may
be safely said that it was a record
trip by dog team.
Leonard Seppaia, with his wife
and daughter, are located at Fair
banks where Leonard is in charge
of the 108 miles of ditch belonging
to the Fairbanks Exploration Co.
