BY HERBERT T. SHANNON,
President of the Operative Builders

Washington is confronted with the
ever-increasing seriousness and i'm
portance of the problem, whether or
not the Zoning law can be created
and enforced adequately.
Considerable anxiety is expressed
from time to time as to whether our
present Zoning law can be maintained
at law. AS to the present law, a state
ment of yes or no on this subject is
after all merely guess, but there are
some facts existing today upon which
certain observations may reasonably
be made which would indicate that
we are to have a Zoning regulation
which Will operate TO control and
beautify Washington and one which
will, no doubt, stand up at law.
AS president of the Operative Build
ers' Association, which includes prac-
tically all of the largest builders OF
homes and apartments in Washing
ton, l have never heard from the
membership of this body anything but
the utmost praise for the basic prin-
CipleS of Zoning. In fact, just re-
Gently this body passed unanimously
a particularly strong resolution set
ting forth its belief and Offering it's
support of the principles of zoning.
There are natural differences of opin-
ion set up regarding the APPLICATION,
of these principles, but never a thrust
at the intent and purpose of this
particular form or regulatory legis-
lation.
Sees Need for Change.
Personally, I think that one of the
somewhat serious mistakes made in
the administration of the present zon-
ing law is a tendency on the part
of the board to stretch out" in it's
endeavors to please every one, and in
clude in particular cases too much
territory, where only specific changes
are asked for. This is but natural
in the beginning, but this will sooner
or later prevent larger developments
and curtail the conversion of unim-
proved land into higher taxable prop
erty as well as operate to impair the
character of improvements which may
be erected on such land.
Zoning should never prevent the
production of homes for the people
at prices which the people can af-
ford to pay.
The small home is even more i'm
portant to men of moderate circum-
stances than is the palatial mansion
which is most times but one home
of many.
Should the principles of zoning be
the size of home then the coming
law will be doubt-find itself in diff
cultieS.
Would Limit Stores.
Business properties necessary as
feeders to a residential neighborhood
should be granted only in proportion
to the actual business needs of the
community. This not alone meets the
requirements necessary as of the mo-
ment, but operates to protect ada
cent property against the long abb
sorptfon periods Of oversupplied bus.
mess properties.
As an illustration, recently there
was zoning hearing to discuss the
advisability of opening up for busi-
ness purposes some five or six con-
tinuouS blocks on one of our main
thoroughfares. Had this been done
not one-tenth of the property could
have been made financially success

Any Other Financial Institution,

With s4.660, ,sO9 495.19 in assets, the
1854 building and loan associations
of the United States have recently
forged to the front faster than any
other financial institution, according
to the figures reported by DR.. Horace
F. Clark, associate professor Of en-
gineering economics. Iowa State Col
lege, and Frank A. Chase, educational
director of the American Savings,
Building and Loan Institute.
The State of Ohio is reported to
have invested more money in real es-
tate mortgages through these associa-
tions than any other State in the
Union, with Pennsylvania a close sec
ond. Pennsylvania figures for Decem-
Der 81, 1924, are not yet available, and
may show that these two States have
about an equal amount Of such money
New Jersey is third, and all three Of
the leading States have assets well
over the half billion mark. Massachu-
setts, Illinois and New York rank next
in order, according to their accumu-
lated savings.

It Is intersected about 500 feet from the entrance of the tunnel, and drifts have been driven on 1t for about 160 feet to the south and for about 80 feet to the north, to a point where 1t pinches out: from this point the tun- nel has been continued north ward to the extension of the Southeast vein. The southeI- h 100 feet of the vein ranges from 8 inches to 3 feet in width, but the southernmost >26 feet is sparcely mineral ized and carries only a little gold. In the drift north from the crosscut tunnel the vein is also narrow but is better
 mineralized with sulphides.

At 50 feet in from the crosscut tunnel a 2O-foot raise and 8 40-foot winze have been opened on the vein The vein maintains a width of about 2 feet in the raise but narrows to 6 or 8 inches in the winze.

The tunnel was driven on the vein, which narrows to a stringer a fract- ion of an inch wide at about 200 feet from the entrance and does not thicken again within the length of the tun- nel. The vein within the tun- mel averages about 8 or 10 inches in width, with local pinches. The country rock is 8 shattered, slickensided gneis- sold granodioritic rock. The vein occupies a Assure and consists of quartz with local punches strongly mineralized with py1ite and galena and rarely with sphalerite. The vein has a general northwest strike, though varying con- siderably, and a steep north east dip. Assays as high as $20 to the ton in gold, silver, and lead are reported.

RIVERSIDE
 The Riverside group of claims Is on the east side of the Sal- mon River road little beyond Seven Mile, at an altitude of about 260 feet. The property consists of ten claims under development by Strong, Barb CT & Black. The developments consist of about 2,40O feet of underground workings ana numerous trenches and strip pings at the surface, made since SSptember, 1922. Three quartz sissnre veins in grano- orite are being prospected, known assthe Ickis vein, Cross vein. and Southeast vein or "msin lead"
 The Ickis vein has been pros pected iby three tunnels, the lowest bne about 15 feet long, the middle one about 20 feet long aud S5 feet higher (now covered by the dump from the upper hlnlelJ, and the upper oneL sh1ut 70 feet above the

average about $14 a ton. The
 vein is cut by two dikes ol dark andesite porphyry, and the tenor is reported to de. crease near the dikes. The sulphides are pyrite and gal. ena, usually localized in bands, with here and there a little sphalerite and chalco- pyrite. About 90 feet below the Lindeborg tunnel is an other adit about 150 fee. long driven on the vein. A, the portal of the adit is a z. foot quartz vein which pinches markedly about 5t feet in. Stringers of quartz occur in the adjacent countr, rock, and stringers and vein. of quartz are found along the remainder of the drift. There is here no well-defined per sistent mineralized vein, but sulphides, mainly pyrite ano galena, are present locally in considerable quantity. At the surface numerous trenches and strippings have exposed quartz with sulphides for g length of about 1900 fec up to an altitude of 900 feet. The amount of sulphidoS varies considerably. Layers of solid galena several inches thick and carrying consider able silver are found here and there. At one cut the quartz vein is 5 feet wide and contains IS inches of steel galena reported to as- say 27 ounces of silver to the ton. The present workings thus show a better-defined vein with higher metal con tent in the outcrop and the upper (Lindeborg) tunne, than in the lower tunnels. II the lower tunnels the vein has more of the nature of k stringer lead in schist, with thick punches of quartz ant small local pockets of sul- phides. Several dikes of and- esite porphyry cut the grano- diorite and the vein. The vein matter breaks freely from the walls.
 At an altitude of about $50 feet about 40 feet of vein matter is exposed, consisting in part of solid milky-white quartz and in part of a brecci- ated granodiorite with quartz veinings. A grab sample of this quartz is reported to show a little gold, though it carries practically no sul- phides.

AOW ACSsaA NV44CCut, ula11lly gold. The southern terminat- ion of the vein is not shown. About 15O feet of the vein, as developed in the tunnels, is considered workable. The sulphides comprise pyrite gall ena, and chalcopyrite, with rare sphalerite. The vein is in part frozen to the walls (gran- odiorite). It strikes about north and dips 30 degres E.
 By September, 1924, con tinued prospecting of this vein had developed new ore shoots, and it was planned to install 50-ton mill using both tables and Notation to treat the ore. Three shoots of ore have been found in drifting on the vein at the level of the crosscut tunnel,- a small one north of the cross cut tunnel, the one described above south of the crosscut tunnel, and a new 70-foot shoot 150 feet farther south. About 150 feet of sparcely metallized quartz intervenes between the two main shoots. The southernmost ore shoot in turn gives way to quartz metallized with pyrrhotite anu other sulphides but of low tenor. A winze has been sunk on the vein from the tunnel level 40 feet to a lower lev el, where drifts have been run on tn vein for a length of 180 feet, and no feet to 8 still lower level, where drifting is in progress. On the first level below the tun- mel 50 feet of fine ore has been exposed which averages over 3 feet in width, ranging from 2 to 5 feet, and is rS- ported to average $46 a ton in value, ranging from $36 tt $100 pc r ton. The ore aver ages about $7 or $8 to the ton in gold and 1 ounce of silver to per cent of lead. A sample from the muck pile of both the upper and lower levels which included some rock, yielded about 25 per cent concentrates. The pyrite concentrate obtained by sep aration on tables gave O.56 ounce of gold and 10.4O ounces of silver to the ton, A per cent of lead, 37.4 pc. cent of iron, and O.4 per cent of insoluble matter. The gal ena concentrate gave GAO ounce of gold and 58 ounces of silver to the ton, "A pel cent of lead, 4 per cent of iron and 1 per cent of insol- uble matter.
 The Southeast vein or "main lead" has been developed by two adits and a drift over 400 feet long from the crosscut tunnel. The crosscut inter- sects the vein at about 800 feet from the entrance. The vein here consists of quartz stringers, locally widening to several feet, in highly mash ed, minutely plicated schist- ose granodiorite. A 70-foot raise showed similar mater ial. A lens of solid pyrite several inches wide was found. About 60 rect above the main tunnel the vein crops out on the hillside, ana an adit about 300 feet long,
