 Adams expressed himself as greatly interested in bringing about more direct means of communication with the Sulzer and the mining properties in the vicinity of the Jumbo mine. This can be done by making route around the lower or south end of Prince of Wales island instead of going around it. For the discussion of this project meeting was called, at which Mir Adams presented his argument in it's favor from the miners side. MT. Adams considers better cOmmunica- tion with these mining properties would be of direct and great advantage to Ketchikan.- .Ketchikan Chronicle.

ALASKA MINING
 NOTES

Apex property as soon as the men and equipment can be taken out, MT. Cam said Ten men will be used on the work at the start. Drilling ma chimes and 5000 feet of air pipe will be taken out from Juneau. MT. Cam expects the mine tender and will leave as soon as possible, taking the men and equipment with him. MT. Cam said he does not know just what work has been done on the Fl Nido prop erty during his absence According to the survey, the vein should be struck at any time. When MT. Cam left it was estimated the vein should be reached in about 30 days. One hundred and sixty feet of tunnel were left to be driven, 5S0 having been driven at the time.-Juneau Empire.

GOLD AND PLATINUM MAY BE YIELDED
 BY PHILIPPINES

MANILA, Sept. 27. Will the Philippines yield both oil and plat mum as result of explorations and mining now being carried on for the first time by ample capital? In samples from placer mining at Lianga, Suriago, Mindanao, the Bu- reau of Science found 6S per cent platinum and per cent gold. But compared to the number of yards of material passed through the dredge, the platinum recovery was small. A thorough survey is to be made for the owners, Persian capitalists of Hong Kong, to ascertain whether or not the platinum is in paying quanti- ties.
 Platinum is widespread in the Philippines and Mindano, where this latest find is made, is only a channels distance from Borneo, the field in the world. Until 1882 min CTS of Borneo tossed the platinum away as worthless, debased metal Up to date it has not been found in paying quantities in the Philip pines, but it would surprise no one if pay deposits were found.
 As to oil the Standard Company keeps on with it's wildcatting on Bondoc Peninsula, Southern Taya- bas, and has also acquired properties in Leyte, considered now to be the much better field. The latest we'll at Bondoc has indicated both oil and gas, but seemingly not con- centrated. Other wealthy American companies have an eye on the work of the Standard Oil Company, which operates here as the Richmond Pe troleum Company, subsidiary of the Standard Oil Company of California.

Local Legion Men Regard
 Bonus Bill Still in Doubt
Officers of Birmingham Post Think Measure Has Hard Journey in Senate, With Outcome in
 Great Doubt

Although passed by the House by soldiers bonus bill is still very un- certain, according to statements made yesterday by local officials of the American Legion. Marked op- timism was apparent in the state- ments and the hope that the bill would be passed without hitch was expressed
 George Lewis Banes. post com mander. said. We expected to see the bill pass the House but we were surprised to see the overwhelmingly favorable vote. However. at all times we have said that the real fight would take place on the floor of the Senate. Accordingly we have saved our most important testimony to be presented to the senate when the. bill comes up.
 'No tune is going to be lost by Legion officials in Washington in seeing that the Senator's are spoken tb Tn regard to the matter, We had lined up the House for several weeks before the passing of the bill and it is our intention to do the same thing with the. Senate. Although the bill has been passed by the House, its fate Is still very uncertain."
 Effect of House Vote
 Arthur Greenwood finance of fioer of the post. said; "The best evidence we can show the senators IS the number of votes east for the soldiers bonus bill when it was passed hv the House Thursday. This should have good results as the fig ure snrely exceeded out anticipa-

tons.
 "why some Of the people oppose the bonus bill Is more than I can un derstand. It means that the fellows who panhandle on the street will have enough money to live decently until the employment situation opens up. We are gratifled that tho rep resentatives passed the bill and hope that the senators seq it in the same light"
 Crenshaw Chamberlayne. post ad- jutant: The real reckoning of the bonus bill is yet to come. Although 1 am as optimistic as several hun dred others, l see in advance a heavy battle.
 q am glad to note among the members of the American Legion that they are almost to a man counting upon taking insurance instead of the money if the bill passes the Senate This ought to demonstrate that this is not a Dill for grafters but one for the ex-service man who needs pro tection and money to aid him during the depression"
 Hard Journey Ahead
 Matt H. Murphy, national post committeeman: The way I see it, the bonus bilrs journey through th Senate is surely hard one. Scores of the representatives voted for he bill Thursday simply to aid them in reelection. So many of the repro sentatives have close races that I think that they voted for the bonus bill to help them back home.
 Unless we get to work and con vince the senators that we are out for business, and that the bill mus. pass. we are going to have hard run of If ''
