Explorer Reports Ores
AT Great Bear Lake Bay

OTTAWA, Ont.-Maj. L. It. Bur-
wash, noted Canadian explorer, has
used the plane with good results In
connection with his extensive explora-
tion work. In July, 1880, he visited
Hunter Bay, the eastern extension of
Great Bear Lake, and as a result of
his investigations found that what
appears to be great fault strikes
from Hunter Bay northeasterly to the
Coppermine river, distance of As
miles, and along with this fault sew
erai concentrations of calcocite and
bornite float"
Burwash reported these gave prom
ise of important ore bodies in the i'm
mediate vicinity. Two crosscuts along
this line uncovered ore for width
OF 20 feet, but the heavy overburden
was still Solidly frozen and operations
were restricted. These properties are
to be further examined to discover
their commercial possibilities.
1t is also stated that to the north
east, as well, two other groups of
claims were located, each with prom
ising outcroppingS while at Dismal
Lake a crosScut uncovered 18 feet of
high grade copper ore. Strong indi-
cations of cobalt and uranium ores,
with economic possibilities, were also
found, and the Burwash hints of
great mineral wealth In these north
erly regions.

eve certainly lost seats in Parlia-
ment," he said, but these were out of
all proportion to the votes we lost in the
constituencies. We hope to double the
membership through those who voted
for US in that election"
Another important recent develop
ment is the formation of a National
Joint Council to secure closer co-opera
ton and consultation between the diff
ferent bodies composing the party.
Events have convinced the industrial
and political wings of the movement"
asserted Mr.. Tracy, that there must
be more cooperation than existed in
the lifetime of the last Labor govern
ment Many difficulties arose between
the trade unions and the government
because there was not enough contact
between ministers inside Parliament
and the trade union movement outside.
The newly formed National Joint Coun-
Gil will meet every month, and its busi-
ness will be to secure joint action on all
matters of common interest"
The national government candidates
made telling use of the charge that the
Labor party was subject to Trade Union
Congress dictation. But in Tracy's
view there is a feeling in trade union
quarters, intensified by recent events,
that it is necessary to exercise stronger
control over the work of the parlia-
mentary party, both in opposition and
when Labor is in office.
For the moment the question of
Premier MacDonald's communication
from the Labor fold-he, of course, does
not recognize its not more than a
subject of casual speculation, at least
outside his old party ranks. But in the
ranks there is yociferouS clamoring that
he will never get back. for it would
mean a party schism of disastrous con-
sequences.
Naturalization of the banks still fig
ures in the party program, although a
number of the wiseacreS in the Labor
movement say that such an unpopular
platform plank ought to be put COM
pletely out of sight.
Candidates are being chosen for the
various constituencies where Labor lost

who stood for Office in the recent cleo
ton Nevertheless, some of the defeated
ones were so hard hit financially and
have such small incomes that there are
still numerous vacancies. Intensive and
incessant propaganda between elections
has greatly aided Labor In the past, and
the party leaders are now intent upon
making the propaganda effort even
more thorough.

(FamouS Political economist
IF CURRENT press dispatches are
correct. it is altogether likely that
Canada will buy from Newfound-
/ land the ungainly and infertile
territory of Labrador for $780,
600 600. For the moment the conclu-
sion of the purchase is held up by
the hard times. But there Is no doubt
that the Canadian people at large con-
slider that Labrador is certainly worth
S1OO 100000 Indeed. it Is asserted on
what seems good authority that Ger
man syndicate is willing to pay that
sum for the possession OF the Laoraaor
territory lust for SO years. After that
thew would give back what was left
of it.
Now here is something which ought
to start any thinking man thinking.
If sovereignty that means
over naked territory like Labrador is
worth all that, what is the value OF
such a fertile extent as East Africa or
Mesopotamia or the Congo? Yet there
are those of us still alive who can recall
the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 when
these vast territories went begging as
mandates" accepted somewhat grudg-
inglv bv the Allied victors as part OF
the white mans burden. The United
States so it is understood, could have
had all of Armenia, including any
Armenians left alive in it, and wouldn't
take it.
Let us turn to the history Of this
matter and show what a mess 1t Is.
Recalls Louisiana Purchase.
In 1903 President Thomas Jefferson
persuaded the United States to buy
louisiana for SIS 900 900. The territory
included all the land between the Mis-
s:ssippi and the Rockies in one direction
and between Spanish America and the
forty-ninth parallel in the other. 1t
contained almost 100000 square miles.
But at the time most plain Americans
Evening star., 1932-01-17

thought the purchase a reckless ex-
travagance.
On the other hand, at the close Of the
Napoleonic War for the sake OF Whlcn
Napoleon had sold louisiana, England
got as the prize of war" huge slices OF
territory-the Cape of Good Hope,
Ceylon, British Guiana, Mauritius. The
increase of the national debt to ga
900 900, 900 seemed offset by the splen-
did addition to national wealth.
Alaska Was Held Bad Bargain.
But in the next generation, that OF
Golden and the Free Traders, the
uppermoSt idea was that sovereignty
over territory was quite worthless. Only
trade mattered and that could be had
Just as we'll without sovereignty. Hence
when the United States bought Alaska
in 1867 from the Gear Of Russia for
S7,200000 the ownership of this vast
territory of approximately 10000
square miles, otherwise called Stewards S
iceboX." seemed not worth while to most
people.
Yet within 20 years all Europe was
engaged in the scramble for Africa,
dividing up that dark continent and
the dark meat with it as if sovereignty
over raw material and natural resources
were of vital meaning to manufacturing
nations. And so they are.
In 1917 the United States paid $25,-
900, 900 for the Danish West Indies, the
Virgin Islands. Put together. all the
Islands would be 13 miles long and 10
miles wide.
But somehow at the Treaty Of Yer
sailles and in the settlement afterward,
the Allied victors missed the point Of
past experience. They imposed colossal
sums of money as reparations and re-
payments, none of it collectable with
out injury both ways, and let territory
go. In place of ownership was sub
stituted wishywashy, hypocritical
thing called mandate" a sort of
white mans burden. This, with its
Evening star., 1932-01-17

limitations, seemed Of no value. The
United States refused its slice and Eng
land gave some back.
Now, If the great war and the great
peace had been conducted on old
fashioned lines there would have been
not mandates" but out-and-out cession
of territory resources and black and tan
subjects thrown in. Everybody would
have been satisfied, including the black
and tan subjects England would have
matched its $4,000 ,000 900 of war debts
against 100000 square miles of fertile
territory and abounding resources.
France would have painted Africa green
to the waist line. Even MuSsolinl
could have found pasture for unborn
Italians. Germany, beaten In the
scramble for land, could have gone back
to industry and philosophy at home.
Whether the territory would have been
an asset or not is of no consequence.
The nations would have thought so.
In 10 years the bitterness left of the
war would have been over. These are
not fancies, absurdities, jokes. These
are facts.
And the United States? Why, of
course the United States would have
been the major claimant. And the
claim" is there on the map all ready to
stake out-the Congo Basin. Here Is
stretch of $500 900 square miles capable
of satisfying in rubber and tropical
products every need of the United States
for uncounted generations.
Turning back for o moment to Lab
rador. This territory and the question
of its recent transfer Gin 1920 from
Canada to Newfoundland is of itself of
no great interest to American readers.
But its present situation serves admi-
rably to illustrate the economic mean
ing of the ownership of territory in

LONDON. Reconstruction work on
q national scale is being undertaken
from January II to March by the
hardhit British Labor party, with the
object of adding 100000 new mem
bers to the party's roster which. it
Is confidently asserted, would eventually
mean the return of Labor to Office.
probably with full working majority.
Since Labor'S overwhelming defeat in
the recent general election, which in
stalled its former leader j. Ramsay
Macdonald, as premier in a National
government able to call upon the sup
port Of an unprecedented majority,
there has been a great deal of stock
taking in Labor quarters and much
criticism of the organization or ma
chine and the manner in which it
failed to respond to the acid test of
efficiency.
The present organized membership
is a composite one, including individ-
uals and affiliated trade unions. The
trade union membership, 3,250000,
comprises the vast majority Of the
party, and it Is for that reason that 1t
has exerted such powerful influence
on Labors legislative programs when
It has been in office. Nevertheless, it
was the contention of the trade union
lists that Macdonald often exercised
an autocratic authority and TO prevent
any leader in the future doing so
trade union movement will insist
'0on the closest contact with those
o. its membership shaping party policy.
i was in the belief that this section
of the Labor organization was really
trying TO pull the legislative strings
that lost that party thousands of votes.
But the party organizers are evl-
IDENTIFY unrepentant, for some of them
declare that the time has come to
take from the prime minister, who
forms a Labor government, the COM
pletely unfettered power Of choosing
the members OF his cabinet. A strong
section favors the method Of caucus
election of the cabinet. as practtced
by the Labor party in Australia. where
q panel of possibilities is submitted to
the premier and where, although the
latter has the power to select individ-
uals for particular portfolios, he can
not choose from outside 1t.
The reorganization planned Is the
first answer of the Labor party TO the
events of the late general election.
In the view of Herbert Tracy, a
haison officer between the Labor move
ment and the press, the election showed
a rock-bottom foundation in the con-
stituencies of nearly 100000 Labor
supporters, total not very much below

wv British admiralty two mys-
teriouS islands which have
appeared for hundred
years will have vanished.
They are Thompson and Lindsay
Islands, down in those stormy seas
known to sailormen as the frozen
fifties" Word has just reached Cape
Town that the whaling survey and ex-
ploring steamer Discovery II has
searched and failed to find any trace
of them.
This is a more surprising report than
the landsman might imagine. In the
past, Of course. large icebergs, masses
of wreckage derelicts and the flotsam
OF great rivers often have been mis-
taken for islands and found their way
onto the charts And it is true that
the reported positions of Thompson
and Lindsay Islands always were re-
garded as doubtful, owing to the diff

tions" remarked, That they do exist
somewhere seems morally certain"
Island Was Volcano.
Thompson Island was reported first
by Capt. Norris, famous whaling ex-
plorer of his day and master of a
brave little Hull whaler. the Sprightly.
His men landed there in 1925, killing
seals and catching fish THE island, "
he wrote. bears evident marks of hav-
ing been volcano as it is nothing less
than complete Cinder with immense
veins Of lava which have the appear
ance of black glass"
Lindsay Island was reported a few
years earlier by Capt Lindsay of the
whaler Swan. 1t was rediscovered in
1898 by the German deep-sea explora-
t1on vessel Valdivia, and found to be
almost exactly in the position given
by Lindsay single volcanic cone sur
rounded by steep cliffs, covered with
snow and ice
When Discovery II steamed over
these lonely seas recently, zigzagging
so that no trace of land could be
missed her officers saw nothing. Aided
by the most modern instruments of
navigation they made a thorough
search and satisfied themselves that
no islands had been missed.
Where are Thompson and Lindsay
Islands? Do they exist in some lonely
part OF the South Atlantic far from
Illc aled VI oedICil! Or nave they, like
SO many other islands, sunk beneath
the ocean?
Only just over the horizon from the
reported position of Thompson Island
lies BouVet Island-an icebo,lnd isle
which myStified navigators for 200
years. There is no doubt about this
lonely spot, however, for the Nor
wegians have raised their flags there
and claimed it as colony"

Many so-called lonely islands are not

But Bouvet Island. with its shadowv

Lawrence to the head of James Bay.
This whole territory includes about
500,0 900 square miles.
Minerals Change Lands Value
But it is only minor part of this,
the northeast section, an area Of 100,-
900 square miles, which was declared in
1927 to belong to Newfoundland and
which Canada will probably buy. This
Labrador includes, roughly speaking,
the land drained by rivers flowing into
the Atlantic, either directly on the coast
al strip, always part Of Newfoundland, or
by way of the inland valley draining
into the Hamilton River, with con-
ventional southern boundary along the
fifty-second parallel. The question of
possession goes back to rights Of New
foundland as arising from its recogni-
ton as British colony-it is the oldest
in 1583-and the rights of the Hud-
sons Bay Co. of 1910, which had juris-
diction over all the land that drained
into Hudson Bay. At the time and for
long afterWard no one knew, or cared,
to where the bleak uninhabited central
valley of Labrador was drained. The
modern search for minerals and power
put the matter in a new light. In 1927
the judicial Committee of the Kings
Council-the last court of appeal for
British colonial cases-declared that
the disputed territory was part of
Newfoundland.
Under the Cobdenite theory this
would have involved no loss to Canada,
since the Canadians could trade" with
Labrador. But in Labrador there is no
one to trade with. In the whole OF 1t
there is not even village. Apart from
mission stations and such choice spots
as Makkovik and Okak, and the land
