New Mineral Bureau
Southern Pacific R. R.
Aids Manufacturers

Many Maine manufacturers. who
have been at loss sometimes to secure
sufficient minerals such as aluminium,
bauxite, volcanic ash, diatonacious and
infusional earth deposits. used in the
manufactury Of their products, are
taking advantage of the recent newly
inaugurated Industrial Minerals Serv-
ice Bureau of the Southern Pacific
Railroad.
The railroad maintains a geological
department, something in the nature
of an innovation. WHICH makes Il sur
vey of the mineral deposits in the
western states through which its
tracks run. Through this survey the
location, extent, analysis and name of
owner of each deposit is listed, to-
gether with the information as to
whether the deposit is or is not for
sale.
A long list of the findings of the
survey, containing information on all
kinds of ore from asbestos to quick
silver tale or soapstone, is being sent
without cost to manufacturers all over
the country upon request OF any man
ufacturer who might have need of
such knowledge.
1t is believed that the Southern Pa
ciic Railroad is the first to institute
a service of this nature. which is con-
sidered an Industrial service of ines
Unable value.

Japan Interest In
Air Route Over Poles

Berlin. Mar. 8 CA. p. by maiD-
Germany, the Scandinavian coun-
tries and Japan, all are showing in
terest in proposal to operate an
air route over the North Pole area
from the coast of Russia to Alaska.
The idea is not particularly new, but
it has been revived recently because
of the improvements, of late years,
in airship construction. 1t is under
stood that DR.. Fidtjof Nansen has Of
feed to lead such an enterprise, I'M
der international support.
An airship a little larger than the
Los Angeles is contemplated for the
run. May is regarded as the best
month in which to start. Murmansk,
on the north coast of Russia would
be the European point of departure.
the route would be over Emperor
Francis Joseph Land to the Pole and
then over the unknown territory of
North Canada to Alaska. The return
trip would be over Boring Strait,
Wrangel Island, De Long Island, and
the unexplored territory of Nova
Zembla.
The Japanese are especially inter-
ested because success might result
in quicker communication between
Europe and Japan.
