War Maps for Library

State Librarian Henry E. Dunnack
Is making a start on a collection OF
official maps Of the World War
areas and has received his first con-
tribution, seven maps from Capt.
George c. Danforth. who served with
the American army through the war
and now chief engineer with the new
Maine Water Power Commission.
Four Of the maps are French gov
eminent maps covering the areas &C.
cupied by the American End Army in
Germany. including the Coblenz.
MainZ. Longwy and Liege sections.
Captain Danforth was then with the
S02d Engineers. with the corps en-
gineers for the 7th Corps. The 56th
Pioneer infantry. a Maine organiza-
ton, was with this army and had it's
headquarters at Minningen on the
Mosel. near Coblenz.
The other three maps are French
war office maps, showing the French
front lines and the German trench
system, including the railroads, rail
heads, artillery positions, ammuni-
ton depots. etc. The Vigneulles

the strongest fortified positions ever
occupied by troops.
These maps make fine nucleus for
a State library collection Of war maps
and Mr.. Dunnack will appreciate any
contribution from the boys in kahki

part Of the battlefields or scenes of
any OF the operation Of troops. Many
OF them must have been brought

ADVISES AGAINST FURTHER
 TUNGSTEN PRODUCTION IN U.


 Frank L. Hess. a United States government engineer. interior depart. ment. after spending the last two years or more investigating the tung- sten resources of the United States, has published an article in the Eng neering and Mining Journal, issue of Nov. l. entitled The Tungsten Re- sources of the World"
 His conclusions will be interest ing if not pleasant reading to those producers of tungsten who willingly and openly furnished MT. Hess with all data at their command. and in many cases entertained him as q friend While making this investigi- tion. MT Hess spent considerable time in Tucson and is well known I'll Arizona mining circles
 His conclusions are as follows:
 The United States is small pro ducer of tungsten ore, therefore rath- CT than encourage the mining Of th's ore, by placing a high tariff on tung- sien and putting a premium upon its production. it would be much better 10 make use of the cheap ores from he Orient now and conserve our home supply for a possible future use in a war which seems to be staring Us in he face" He denies that high tar- if would tend ;o develop new tun;- s;en mines Further. that only sao people engaged in the production O: tungsten would be affected and these would soon he able to find employ ment in opening up ether mines
 Les these arguments be insuffoien. he winds up the article that not ,c buy South American and Chinese ores is to throw ayay the reciprocal trade of those countries"
 According 10 MT Hess arguments t naturally follows that the cil in dns'ry should be suppressed for d. net the eminent geologists put forth the theory that our oil supply will be exhausted within the next 30 or Al years? The same reasoning holds for our other limited natural resources. That a tariff would not tend 10 develop new tugnsten mines is pure rot. And his final argument about "recoprocal foreign trade" makes the whole read as if inspired by the chemical trust
