DEPARTMENT
SUBMITS ITS REPORT
sff, OOO, 900 FOREIGN
BORN HAVE II PER CENT
POSTAL SAVINGS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Post-
master General Burleson's annual re-
port made public tonight says the
European war has cost the American
postal service $21 100000 but that
economies of administration have re-
duced the audited deficit to a little
more than $11, 900, 900 for the fiscal
year which ended last June.
Chief among accommodations to
Congress are a renewal of previous
proposals for a change from the
weight to the space basis of fixing
pay to the railroads for carrying
mail; a renewal of recommendations
for government ownership of tele-
graphs and telephones; a renewal of
the four pound limit on first class
mail; and the adoption of more lib
eral limitations on the weight and In
a of parcel post packages.
The greatest expansion in the
postoffice, the report shows, was in
the parcel post. Statistics gathered
from fifty principal postoffces show
IL ~ DO q III al IL pOotol ouol-
ness, and that more than a billion
parcels are being transported every
year. Before the parcel post vas
established not more than one fourth
that number was handled. The
amount of postage collected from
that source approached $4,000, 900,
during the first fifteen days of Oct
ober this year alone.
While the war has crippled the
money order system it has doomed
the postal savings banks. The num-
Der of depositors and the amount de-
posted exceeded any year since the
banks were established. More than
a half million depositors were on the
books at the end of June 1915, a
gain of So per cen for the year and
they had on deposit nearly $66,OOO,-
900, a gain of more than so per
cent.
The increase in deposits in some
cities was remarkable. They in
creased in New York, 1919 per cent;
Bridgeport, Conn, 1873 per cent;
Brooklyn, 1877 per cent; Patterson,
1872 per cent; Jersey City, 1872 per
cent; Detroit, 112 per cent. Other
stiles show gains ranging from so to
100 per cent. OF all the depositors
more than So per cen were foreign
born and they had more than II per
cent of the total depisits. The figures
are represented as showing plainly
the attraction of the postal banks to
the immigrant.

PROJECT TO RECOVER
POTASH FROM WATERS
CONTAIN RECOVERABLE
SALTS

The Union Pacific esystem yester-
day established a freight rate OF
$3.50 a ton on potash from Saltair
to Chicago, and the Utah Chemical
company, a subsidiary of the South
ern Cotton Oil company, will at
once begin the erection of the ma
chinery, which is on the ground at
Saltair, to extract potash from the
waters of Great Salt Lake. The cor
poration+ is capitalized at 100000
900 and the laboratory tests which
have been made by the chemists in
charge of experiments for the South
ern Cotton Oil company show that
the waters of the lake hold potash in
solution and that by a simple pro-
cess it can be recovered.
The Lynch-Cannon Engineering
company, which has the contract for
the erection of the buildings and
the machinery for the chemical COM
pany, began setting the boilers III
the boiler house yesterday. 1t will
complete the contract within 80
days, and the officials of the South
ern Cotton Oil company have noti-
fled the traffic department of the
Union Pacific system that the ship
ment of potash may begin in As
days
The potash is to be taken to Menu
phis and Atlanta, where the South
ern Cotton Oil company has factories
for making fertilizer from cotton
bulls, and where it also has a
market for potash in raising the to-
baccO crop.
1t is understood that the Southern
Cotton Oil company has conducted
experiments extending over a year
with the water Of Great Salt Lake in
it's search for potash. The idea of
potash from it's waters or
iginated through the experiments

was begun, some of the low-grade

market established for the product
from surrounding territory.
With the advance in the price of
potash and with encouraging pros
poets for successful recovery of
the salts from alunite, the attention
of engineers working in behalf OF
private enterprises, as well as those
employed by the government. has
been directed to the search for
alunite deposits of sufficiently good
grade and volume to warrant ex-
ploitation.
This interest has conferred largely
upon this immediate neighborhood,
as offering the most substantial
promise for finding the mineral in
the desired quantity. Mr.. Barndt
states that theoretical conditions in
this region for the presence of pot
ash in alunite, are superior to any
of which he has knowledge. Strong
indications of potash have been OBJ
tanned through his tests and he is
well pleased with the results of his
Investigations.
The search for potash in recent
years has been chiefly confined TO
the dry lakebeds of arid regions, IN
which many deep d~rill-holes have
been sunk, but without success. This
field has been practically abandoned
for the present in favor of the moro
promising alunite possibilities, al
though deep boring is to proceed in
Railroad Valley company, the Pacif-
ic Borax company, formerly con-
trolled by "Borax" Smith, and the
SOlvay PROCESS company of Belgium,
the foremost chemical producing
company in the world, have expended
large sums in drilling for potash and
all are now in the field, in quest of
alunite deposits hat contain potash
in commercial quantity.
During the past season govern
ment engineers have drilled a NUM-
Der of deep wells in the Smoke Greek
desert, neal Gerlach, which is in
the great Lahontan drainage basin,
and a number have been drilled in
the Black Rock desert, Railroad Val
ley, Death Valley and other dry lake
beds or playas of Nevada and adj
jacent states.
Mr.. Barndt has conducted the
work of sinking a number of drill
holes. varying from 1000 to 1850
feet in depth, in eight different
drainage basins of Nevada. d. r.
Walker. who has superintendent the
government work during the past
two years, and formerly superintend-
ent for the Railroad Valley COM
pany has established some remarka-
BILE new records in sinking. He is
now in charge of government work
in Texas. Mr.. Barndt's report will
be submitted shortly to his asso-
ciates and upon it will be based their
plans for further exploration of this
field.
