/ world is looking hopefully 10 US to do
this thing. Is there any wonder that
1t is? Do you blame the world for
looking hopefully to US, prayerfully
and tearfully, to do this thing? Par
ticularly those parts OF the world, those
governments, which, so far as the
terms OF the peace treaty are concern
ed, have profited much, and hayt, so
far as that document discloses, sacri-
feed little, II anything at all, 10 that
high and vague idealism OF which we
hear so much and about which we
know SO very little.

scheme approved and adopted by the
Senate without let or hindrance, and
we are told that the soldiers who gave
their lives gave 1t for this precious doc
ument OF unAmericanism and OF in
ternationalism, and the soldiers who
survived the hell of battles are as eager
for It. most emphatically deny that
this is true, and l as unhesttatlngly

Manganese Production in the United
States Has Increased Little Each
Year Until Home Demands Were
Almost Supplied.

The United States promises to be

ganese if there is no check put on the
budding industry. In 1917 the domes-
tic product was only about one-third
of the total consumption.
When Uncle Sam entered the world
war the unprecedented demand for
manganese caused men to turn their
attention to developing the known de-
posits Of this mineral in this country.
Secretary Lane of the interior de-
partment issued historic appeal for
men ito discover America" and help
relieve a possible mineral shortage.
One result of this has been the in
crease in the production Of mangan-
ese until it is believed that in 1919
the steel industry could be supplied
entirely with home produced mineral.
In this increase the Mena field was
figured upon to produce in 1919.
As an indication of the growth of
the manganese industry in the coun-
try the Manufacturers Record says:
During the first six months of
1918, according to a communication
from the United States Geological
survey, the output in this country
was 1864 tons of manganese ore,
containing above 35 per cent of the
metal, and ore of that grade was be-
ing shipped in October at he rate of
$4,000 tons monthly, or $4,000 tons
per year"
