UNCLE SANS MINE

A government coal mine in
Alaskan Why notP What is the
difference between running a coal
mine in Alaska and running one
in North Dakota-providing it is
done successfully?
Uncle Sam has already proven
himself a successful coal miner.
He owns q nine at Williston,
North Dakota. From the mine he
gets the coal. With the coal he
runs the power plant. With the
power plant he generates electric
ity. With the electricity he runs
the pumps. With the pumps he
lifts water out of the Missouri
river. With the water he irri-
gates thousands of acres of arid
lands. And when be has done
this he Transforms barren acres
into fertile fields; he literally makes
the desert to blossom like the rose.
This whole project is managed
by Uucle Sans servants in the
Reclamation Service. Uncle Sam
owns the coal mine; his engineers
operate it, a. they do also the
power plant and irrigation works.
And this government owned and
operated coal mine, conducted on
model lines, il able to produce coal
ut 81 go q ton.
The retail price Of coal at Will
iston maintained by private oper-
ators 10 $3.50 q ton. Hence the
government is mining its own coal
at 80 cents q ton less than it could
be bought in the open market.
And the engineers in charge are
reported - saying that if the mine
were operated all the year round
lit is worked only four months of
the year, during the crop growing
season) it would be possible to
produce the coal at nearly twenty
