League Of Nations credits begin to
come in; the establishment of THE
Austrian National Bank, together
with the determined effort to pre- ent
further initiation Of the crown, are
meant to restore Austria's credit to
som eextent in the eyes Of her native
investors.
The rehabilitation Of Austria is one
of the most serious of all after-war
problems. The country has been re-
duced to a fragment of the old en-
pire, of whose area and population
she has now about one-eighth. Her
share includes, on the one hand, j
considerable part of the poorest and
most mountainous districts, and or
the other hand, a large and luxurious
capital, Vienna, with about one-thirC
of the total population of the country

monarchy took place st a time Of in

THE ECONOMIC SITUATION IN
AUSTRIA.


With the economic life Of Austria
as a whole, rs well as its government,
being carried on at a heavy loss, and
with initiation at a level which is only
outdone in Russia, the news from
Vienna that subscription books have
been opened for the new Austria Gold
Loan of 1922, and for shares Of the
new Austrian National Bank, is OF
particular interest when it is realized
that the rehabilitation of that coun-
try is one of the most serious Of all
after-war~ problemsm.
The present loan is thought suffl-
Gent to cover the deficit for two
years, according to information re-
| ceived by the Guaranty Trust Com
pany of New York, and this period Is
considered long enough to restore
| Austria's credit and to introduce the
necessary reforms. Expenditure is
calculated to exceed income by ESQ.,
100000 gold crowns per annum, but
it is hoped that considerable econ
omies will be effected by winding up
various state enterprises and by ma
t~erially reducing the number OF gov
eminent employees.
The loan amounts to six million dol
lars Of six months treasury notes in
denominations of 10, 40, and 100 dol
lars. The holder has the right, up to
June 30, 1923, to demand redemption
in Austrian crowns at the rate OF TO-
600 crowns per dollar.
Security for the loan is given by
the gross receipts from import and
export taxes and of the tobacco mon
opoly. Besides, these notes form
part Of the temporary short-tern1
credits with a maximum amount OF
1870 million gold crowns, which wil
; be paid back out of the internationa
. long-term loans to be floated unde'

What is expected Will result in one
OF the largest mining ventures in the
history of Montana will be started
shortly by the Porphyry Dixie Gold
Aiming Company on property situat-
ed between Butte and Helena, now
that James Breen, one of the best
known mining men and metallurgists
u the west, has secured control of
LOO T Of the famous dixie which,
through IN expenditure of more than
$4,000, shows an estimated tonnage
OF low grade gold ore amounting to
more than 100000 tons.
1t will result in a steam shovel
proposition, the only steam shovel
gold mining in the world, and if pres-
ent plans are consummated will be
the largest gold mining proposition
ever attempted in Montana.

ing a series Of tunnels and raisssl
through which the ore was taken,
about 10 per cent, or about 1,500, 900
tons, has been sampled and cevel-
oped.
The character of the ore is the free
milling, a characteristic Of all quartz
found from there to a distance of 20
miles northwest Of Maryville. The
process to be used is not only the
simplest known to ore treatment, but
also the oldest. The ore will be
crushed by the gyratory process to
1k inch where it will be dropped by
gravitation to Harding ball mills.
The gold will then be recovered by
amalgamation on silver-plated copper
plates.
While preliminary work of clean
ixg up and getting the mill ready Will
start shortly, Mr.. Breen stated that
because of the heavy now and cam
ditions of the road leading to the
property, it will be May before opera
tions viii start on a large scale. a
complete plant is now at the proper
! ty, consisting of a 300-ton mill, cleo.
trio power, assay offices, blacksmith
and machine shops, as well as build
ings for employees.
In the early days of Montana the
district adjoining the porphyry dixie
was one of the leading gold sections
