WESTWARD MINERAL

When Westward Alaska is some day more thoroughly proSpected, or shall we say, when it is prospected at all, it is not too much to expect some surprising results. Enough minerals have been found at widely separated points to indicate the presence of much more in between. In fact so little is known of the country from a mining standpoint that it is very possible some great things are being overlooked.
 Ever since the days of the fam ous Apollo mine on Unga Island, where millions were produced, there have been sporadic attempts at prospecting but it has not been done on any thing like the scale as prospecting is known in the Inter ior. The whole trend of the white invasion into Alaska was naturally switched to the Interior by the big gold camps, while those who did go to the Westward were after furs and fish.
 However, it is now announced that they have found what they think is the extension of the fam ous Apollo vein and propose to de- velop it.
 Another good prospect of copper has been located on the peninsula above Katmai harbor and British Columbia capital will look into that matter this summer.
 Placer gold has been found on the beach sands of Kodiak and were mined to some extent some years ago. Other minerals, such as lead, silver and copper have also been found on Kodiak and some development work was done, but sufficient capital has never been available for that section of Alaska 1t appears. These indications give at least a promise that Alaska has another great storehouse of miner al wealth that may some day be unlocked.

CROP
 BELOW AVERAGE
More Spuds Than Last Year
 Is Forecast

Washington, Aug. IS Condi- lions to August 1 indicated a United States potato crop totalling 372,- 557,000 bushels compared with 39S,- 419,000 bushels the outlook a month ago, 359,796,000 bushels harvested last. year and 392,605,OO0 bushers the average production of the five years 1924192S. This prospective crop is 3.5 per cent greater than the crop harvested last year but 5.1 per average. Severe drouth in many of the middle western states together with wet weather in Maine is larg- ly rsponsible for the decline in pros poets.
 In New England the potato crop is expected to total 52.955,0O0 bushels compared with the indicated produc- ton a month ago of 55,630,000 bush- els. 5S,9SS,000 bushels harvested last year and 47,400.O00 bushels the five year average production 1924 1928. Conditions have been quite favorable to the growth of potatoes in southern New England but less favorable in northern New England where rainfall has been too heavy and temperatures too high for po- tatoes to make a healthy growth.
 The Maine potato crop is estimat- ed at 44,2S0.e00 bushels, 12 per cent less than harvested last year but nearly Is per cent above the five year average. In Aroostook county the potato crop does not present a very satisfactory appearance. A few fields. have already blighted badly
New Britain herald., 1930-08-15

and many others show evidence of some blight, Heavy showers have been frequent and temperatures gen. orally high. The heavy showers have also washed out gullies in some fields and caused the fertilizer to bleach out badly. The final out
 turn, however, is very dependent on weather conditions during August.
 Potato prospects in the eioht major late crop states (Maine, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin,, Minnesota, and North Dakota) declined 8 per cent during July and are now expected to be 8 per cent more than the light crop harvester last year but nearly per cent below the five year aver. age for these states. The outlook in, the 12 minor western surplus states is quite similar to that of the jor states. In the 20 late surplus states the outlook is for a crop nearly S i per cent greater than harvested last year but about 4 per cent below
 average.
 | A particularly light crop is ex- pected in the 14 late deficient states l the most important of which are To- ! cated in the Ohio valley where the 1 drouth damage has been greatest i In this group the outlook was re
 duced per cent during July and production is expected to be about
 13 per cent less than in 1929 and
 IS per cent below average. This
 situation will tend to increase the
 carlot movement of potatoes from l surplus areas.
 In New York the potato crop made
 good growth until late July when it
 was checked by the hot dry weather generally pr@valents over most of the
 state. On Long Island however. the potato crop is making excellent yields the digging of the Cobbler crop being Nready under way. Iii
 Pennsylvania the crop has been
 damaged by drouth which is serious

yielded quite we'll generally but late crop prospects are Very discourag- ing.
 Rhe other important surplus states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota, have been dam aged by drouth and high tempera- lures to limited extent. The early crop in these states will be light while the final outturn of the late crop is rather uncertain and largely dependent on weather conditions during August. In Idaho most of the potato crop is grown under ir- rigation and, therefore, escaped drouth damage.

MOS|,EMS OPPOSE

80,00O,000 in India Doubt Good

Bombay, Aug. Is RN-Wails rais- ed by Moslem leaders in various parts of Indian indicate that the S0,- O00,0OO members of that faith have little confidence in the good inten- tions of their Hindu neighbors.
 In a few districts descendants Of the Mohammedans who ruled the land with an iron hand until the British came. 200 years ago, have supported the Gandhi movement. their leaders and held aloof from thei rleaders and held >aloof from the attempt to gain immediate inde- pendence for their country.
 AS viewed by the, Moslems, the Gandhi campaign is aimed at de- struction of both the present and former foreign rulers of India. They can not forget the centuries in which Hindus and Moslems have been bit ter enemies
 Ten years ago there was a time when Mohammedans and Hindus united against the British. But the alliance in that 1920 civil disobedi- ence campaign was dissipated by po- litical disagreements three years later and all attempts to renew it have failed.
 There are about 920.000,000 Hin dus in Indian and of these fully B. 100000 are organized into the Gand- hi nationalist party. making it ad- mittedly the strongest single politi- cal force But the British claim that this Swarap section represents only a minority of the Hindus themselves, since the numerous caste of the 'un- touchables' has been excluded from it.
 Then there are Sikhs, Indian Christians, Angla-Indians, Eur opeans and other minorities and the British claim that none of them sympathizes with, Gandhi and his followers in the civil disobedience campaign.
 On the other hand the nationalists assert that the Moslems are unduly alarmed. The Gandhites made re- peated promises that they would not come to any agreement with the British which would not protect the rights of all minorities. It is assert ed that safeguards have already been property, religious, cultural and considered for taking care of the other rights of all sections of the teaming land.
 ,The Simon commission, the Brit ish governments examining body which spent two years Investigating India's capabilities for self-govern- ment, said of the differences be- tween the Hindus and Moslems:
 Tt is a basic opposition manifest ing itself at every turn in social cus- tom and economic competition as well as in mutual religious antipathy Today, in spite of neighborly kind ness in ordinary affairs made by men of good will in both communi- ties to promote Hindu -Moslem ac- cord, rivalry and dssension between these two forces are one of the chief stumbling blocks in the way of 8 smoother and more rapid progress
