GENERAL RUSH FOR
CARNOT|TE CLAIMS

AS a result OF the threa tened passage
OF the resolution to withdraw all radium
lands many local people are locating all
available carnotite deposits. says the
Moab Times. Scores OF claims have juet
been located between Moab and Thomp-
sons, and much locating has just been
done in the vicinity OF the Pack creek
fields. An idea OF the number oil claims
that are being taken up can be gained
from the fact that during the past ten
days the Times has sold between 500 and
1000 location blanks.
That the withdrawal OF all Tadium
lands will hinder the development CT the
deposits is feared throughout this sec
ton, and many who are conversant with
all phases OF the matter are OF the opin-
ion that the radium industry is little
understood by the people at large and has
been grossly miSrepresented 10 tho NOM
bers of congress- II Is generally under
stood throughout the cast that practi-
cally all Of the carnotite ore goes to Eu-
rope for extraction. while statistics show
that during the past year a large guam
tity remained IN this country.
The Times has just received the fol-
lowing telegram from o. Barlow Will
marth, the well-known ca rnotite ore
buyer, who is now in Washington:
