THE DEBT OF THE WORLD
SINCE THE WORLD WAR
SOME COMPARISONS WITH PRE-
VIoUs INDEBTEDNEss-lN-
TEREST CHARGES.

The national debts of the world now
total $685.. 600, 100000. according to q
compilation by o. p. Austin, statisti-
clan of the National City bank, in the
current issue of The Americas. This
compares with s44OOO,O 900, 900 at the
beginning of the European war, an
increase of 1921. 100000.
In discussing this subject, the ar
ticle says, in part:
1.-The national debts of the world
now approximate s265. ZOO, OOO. OOO
against $44. ,OOO,O 900 at the begin
ming of the great European war. The
interest charges on the grand total
now exceeds $4,000. OOO 900 per annum,
as against about 1,75O,0O0.OOO in the
year before the war. The per capita
70 the national Indebtedness averages,
for the aggregate population of all
countries for which debt figures are
available. about $780,, against approx
imately S27 per capiat in 1913, and an
nual interest charges about Sc per
capita at present as against about 81
per capita in 1918.
"These figures are, of course, in
very round terms. 1t is not possible
TO measure with extreme statistical
accuracy the total national indebted
ness of the world in any designated
month or year, since the official state
ments of national debt are in many
cases comparatively infrequent and
in some instances stated in terms not
readily comparable with those of
other countries, while the figures COW
ering the interest rates ON tine various
issues, and therefore the annual in
terest charges, are even more difficult
Comparative Figures.
IN general terms, however, it may
be stated that the debts of all coun-
tries and colonies of the world in
which national obligations are created
and recorded aggregated a little over
81, 600 OOO 900 in 1900. $4,000, OOO.O 900
at the beginning of the Neapoleonic
wars in 1898. and about $1,000, OOO.O 900
at its close in 1916. In the thirty
eight years of comparative peace
which followed the Napoleonic wars
the advance was comparatively slow,
the world stotal standing at about
IS, 800, 900, 900 at the beginning of the
Crimean war in 1854.
I'm the twenty years which includ-
ed the Crimean, the American Civil
and the Franco Prussian wars, the
perid 1854 to 1874, world national
debts increased $50 per cent advance
ing from sS,5OO 600 600 in 1854 to s22.-
900, 900, 900 in 1874.
Then came a forty-year period.

extracted as is now done in the Head

thus be converted into commercial

PRODUCTION OF GOLD
S345,OOO,OOO IN 1878
INDICATION THAT 1920 WILL
SHOW FURTHER DECREASE IN
THE UNITED STATES.

The United States geological survey
department of the Interior has given
out some preliminary figures showing
the production of gold throughout the
world in 1919. The production in the
United States was S5S,2S5, 1856; Canada
is reported to have produced S14,6 -
600; India s1O.O2S.OOO; Australia mot
including New Zealand or the Islands),
$29. PCS. 900; the Transvaal, s171, 640, e.
1913; Rhodesia and West Africa, $751;
631 go There was a probably large
decrease in the production of gold in
Russia and Siberia in 1919. Some in
crease was probably made and South
America, which, however was doubt
less offset by decreases in the output
of other countries. The incomplete re-
turns now available indicate that the
worlds production of gold in 1919 was
between $Si5, 100000 and $3.50. ZOO, 900.
The worlds production in 1918
to $3.50. 9245OO
Estimate for 1920
The geological survey further states
that information received during the
first six months of 1920 indicates a still
further decrease in the production of
gold in the United States and that the
output for the year will probably be
less than s5OOOO.OOO The production
in Alaska, Colorado, California, Ore
gon, and Montana will be much less in
1920 than it was in 1919, because water
is very short for placer mining and
many stamp mills are closed. Canada
as a whole may increase it's output, al
though the production of the Yukon
districts viii be smaller than last year.
The output of Russia can not be esti-
mated That of Australia will show
decrease. That of South Africa and
South America will probably show no
radical decrease. According 10 the
geological survey the indications are
that the decrease in the worlds pro-
duction of gold in 1920 will not be so
great as it was in 1919.

Standard Regulations to Promote

Some standard regulations govern
ing operations of underground haul
age are included in d recent bulletin
OF the Colorado bureau of mines. Cars
operated by hand should have a con-
venient handle so that it is unneces-
sary for the trammer to place his
fingers inside or outside the car1body.
Depending upon the system used, the
capacity of car should not be too
great nor should too many cars be
hauled in one train. The body and
running gears of cars should be kept
in good condition Where necessary
cars should be provided with adequate

sonably overcome. Grades should not
be so teep that they offer danger from
deraiment of cars. Locomotives
should be of an approved type with
all necessary appliances for their safe
operation They should be provided
with headlights and gongs. Gasoline
locomotives should be used only by
special written permission of the
commissioner of mines. Locomotives
should be kept in good condition. The

haulage is used. shaft stations must
be electrically lighted and haulage-
ways should have electric-Hght bulbs
at least every 200 #. For animal

the first car of the trip or by the driv-
er. For hand-tramming a light must
be carried by the trammer or on front
of car. Rails should be of such weight
as to safely carry the maximum load
that may be imposed at maximum
speed. They should be firmly spiked
have suitable joint fastenings, and
rest on a sufficient number of ties
of adequate dimensions. Frogs and
switches should be properly blocked on
motor haulage roads The track
should be properly aligned and free
from high Joints. broken rails defec-
tive switches and frogs. Chute lips
should not project more than three
inches over the nearest side of the

cars moving at a speed ex-
ceeding four miles per hour should be
prohibited. Cars without brakes
should not be ridden on grades. Speed
Of trains should not be greater than

Gas Only Obstacle.

The only real physical obstacle in
the way of mining petroleum sands is
the matter of gas. but by efficient ven
tilation, the use of permissible explo-
sives, thorough inspection. strict rules.
and laws regarding operation it is pos
sible that underground methods could
be applied successfully.
AS the gas problem is very serious
one in mining operations. much OF the
gas may be extracted in advance of
actual mining by the application of
vacuum through a number of properly
spaced drill holes many months or
even years in advance of actual min
ing. The gas will follow the line of
least resistance, and would therefore
flow toward the low pressure areas.
This movement could be augmented
