Nitrate Deposits In sahara7

The nitrates of Chile are the larg-
est known to exist, and are one Of the
greatest sources of that country's
prosperity. Their exhaustion would
mean disaster to Chile and a great
loss to the world. But it has been
suggested that Africa might compete
with Chile, If not take the place of
that country In this industry. Ex-
perts are said to be convinced that
nitrate deposits even more extern
sive than those of South America ex-
lst all over the western part of the
Sahara. 1t would cost more to get the
product to the coast than 1t costs In
Chile, but 1t Is averred that this extra
expense Of transportation would only
counter-balance the high export duty
on Chilean nitrates.-Wash-

Westminster measures forty; in

the height of towers measures
here 262, while London's is 225.
There are similar variations in

that the architect was seeking q
