More Railroads Com
 ing, Brooks Opinion

It is the opinion of Dr Alfred H Brooks, chief Alaskan geologist. that the time is soon coming when the rail road line rQoaine between Seward and Fairbanks wlll be merely 0 connecting link for branch lines running through Alaska. He sees no cause for delay n the building of a railroad system here that will tap the country for colnmer cial uses and thereby render a profit able service to the people of the coun try.
 Pointing to heemineral deposits that cannot be touched without the con- strUction of railroad to haul the ore in quantities that would pay. he calls to mind the fact that Alaska is not es- sentially land devoid of possi bilities, but has all the assets to make it greater and greater as the wears go by.
 Among the deposits that can only be handled in paving quantities when some way isearranged to take it out is the one at White River, where copper deposits are known to exist. Another is the great coal feld lying east of the Chicaloon river.
 Another belt that needs a railroad is the kantishna and the country lying to it's west following the lode mining belt. That would bring in the Kusko- kwim valley, which would undoubtedly profit by the influence of rail trans observation-disclosures News. Miner.

gLakehurst. N. J.-The average speed of the dlrigible ZR 3 in her flight across the Atlantic was 62 65 miles an hour for the 5,066 miles from Frederickshaven to Lakehurst. The actual time of the grant rigid airship for the voyage was 8l hours IF minutes. The fuel tanks were a quarter full when she arrived at her noorings. This is great diff ference compared to the fuel tanks of the R-54, which held nearly half hours supply at the end Of her journey.
 The plans for the operations of the ZR-3 in this country have not yet been fully mstured. It can be said. however, that prac tically all parts of the country will have an opportunity to see the airship in operation as a commercial carrier. The possi bility of demonsr rating a trans Atlantic mall schedule with the ZR' 3 has been discussed and may be tried If it should material ize, the world may see a three day. or less, mail delivery be- tween New York and London.
 The entire field of commercial aviation will receive great boost from the operations of this new airship. The practicability of airship service over long dis tances, running into thousands of miles. carrying freight and passengers in fraction of the time consumed by train, will be demonstrated by the operation of the ZR 3.
 The American business man of today is about to witness what may we'll prove to be revolu- tionizing of our present day methods of transportation. The airship is another step in the long line of development of transportation which started with the feeble back of man himself, and has developed up wards with animals. ships, wagons. trains, automobiles, and now aircraft.
