 with the Improvement of trans portation facilities" said Williams at The Arlington today, there is no doubt that much mining machinery will be imported l expect to see this business open during the coming summer.

 Williams says prospecting in the Lituya Bay district has revealed good deposits which undoubtedly will be developed this season. This property is strictly for dredging. The Glacier Bay copper claims also show signs of great productiveness. VII. Hams said.
