SOME PROBLEMS OF
THE MINING INDUSTRY

The following are brief points made by
Samuel y Taylor, president OF the
American Mining congress. In his annual
address last week at Spokane:
Safety and efficiency in mining opera
tons
Conservation of national resources should
be directed along logical lines rather
Than conlinc il To the prchIbitive lengths
tho east desires.
= Fake and wildcat mining and ilie5itimate
stock prometiWls should be eliminated by
adequate laws.
More uniform state laws governing tho
industry arc necessary.
Federal laws governing mineral lands.
power sites and rights uf way over pub
lie domain should he modelled after the
needs Of all not confined merely TO theo-
retlcal phases.
Laws for developing Alaskan resources
needed.
