Frank Manley Minerals of R-aches End Territory
{ sLG, VAS THE ONLY MINERAL THAT SHOWED INCREASE
 DURING 1932.

WASHINGTON Department of the Interior announces, through ad- vance statements prepared by Philip s. Smith, of the Alaska branch of the Geological Survey, that mines in Alaska. are estimated to have pro- duced minerals valued at $10,938, ,000 in 1882, as against $12,278,000 in 1881. The total value of the mineral output of Alaska since 1880 is appror- imately s652, 2,0OO,000. The figuresrfors 1882, which are preliminary esti- mates and consequently subject to re- vision, are taken from the Geological Surveys annual report on the mineral resources of Alaska, nonw in prepara- ton. The source of this mineral wealth was approximately as follows, the 1882 figures being estimates:
 Gold: 1882, $9,53a, ,999; 1881, $9,- 5O7 ,OOO.
 Copper: 1882, $ss1, ,ooo;. 1ea1,. s1,- s77, ,0O0.~
 Silver: 1882, s73,ooo; 1881, s1o2,- 900.
 Coal: 1es2y $535yOoo; 1884,, $556,. 000-
 Other minerals (lead,, petroleum, marble, tin, platinum, etc.,: 1882. $260, ,OO0; 1881, $236,OOO.
 General C0nditilnss-
 The genenral condition. of industry in the United States during 1882 ad- versely acected Alaswa mining devel- opment. This condition was in large measure attributed to, the low@prices that prevailed for all .the. mineral comities except gold. For. instance, the average selling price of copper and lead during the year were less thann three-fourths. of the prices that prevailed during 1851, which, it may be remembered, was also year of especially low prices. At the current prices for these metals there was not onnly no incentive to speed up pro- ductim at the already. known minnes or to search for axtenxions of athese deposits hut there was decided ten- dency ta curtaiL production and opera tions, so far as, practicable. It was extremely difficult if not impossible to interest capital to undertake many new mining ventnures, evenn tnhough there was. some stins,2atien. in pros pecting and simple mining operations that could he carried on by persons who otherwise would have been unem- ployed.
 Weather conditionns have at all times an effect on mining operations in Alaska, and in 1932ithe effect was especially noticeable. The snowfall during the. winter of. 193la32 was un- usually heavy, SO that, the season of 1882 was late. i'm opening. This caused delay in starting: ma1asuE tha placer mines. but wass advantageous in naf- fording a plentiful supply of water for their operationsar The summer was marked bNY exceedingly heavy rainfall, and althoughs sins many camps this was advantageous in maintain ing large. supply snfsfwater:. else where it wss xsseriousshaiadiaap for it occurred i'm, destsuctiueiwwoftme. putting tha tfanspDHAxtisnii. facilities out of esmMizsi0n fprfdpnp .perini1k..

Washington, D. c., June 16.-
I'VE are coming to a time when
we are going to think less about
the amount of money we can get,
so long as we have enough to live
on decently, and think more about
the joy we have in our work." said
Mrs. Roosevelt to the Seventh
National Al Club camp here.
The lat boys and girls at the
camp received this warning about
the New Deal to carry back home
with them. Mrs. Roosevelt did not
tell them how they were going to
get enough to live on decently"
but tried to make the children
hope for the "joy we have in our
work" by thinking "1ess about the
amount Of money we can gel"
Probably because we are going to
get less and less money as the
New Deal advances.

BANKERS LARGEST
SECTION OF BUDGET

At the end of May the debt of
the Federal government amounted
to somewhat less than $22 billion
dollars as the result of the extra

recurring deficits. This year it is
expected that the governments cp-

about s1,7O0, 100000. If the en-
tire Roosevelt program goes thru
additional billions will be added to
the public debt.
The debt is now at It's highest

Thrown Out of Job By
Cudahy Packing Plant
Worker Loses Home

Milwaukee, Wis, June TO-
Steve Gage, of Cudahy, Wis, 43
years old, came to the u. S. in
1907 from CzechOslovakia. He
worked a few years in a packing
plant in Omaha, then moved to
Cudahy, Wis. He worked for 7
years as millwright IN the Cudahy
packing plant and then was laid
off on Nov. 10, 1880.
Being out of work he could not
meet the payments on his house.
Even though he had paid for his
house the mortgage holders fixed
it so that he still owed $4,000. His
home was foreclosed last week,
and he, his wife and two children
IL and Is years old, were evicted.
TO OLD FOR JOB AT 4S
Being desperate, Cage went back
to Cudahy's plant and asked for
work. They told him he was too
old. AS he argued with the sup
erintendentA one Of them struck
him. In the fight which followed,
Gago drew a revolver and shot two
of the superinteadents, one thru
the jaw and one through the arm.
Now Cage is being held by the
police, facing a serious charge.
The International Labor Defense
is calling meetings and issuing
leaflets to the workers of Cudahy,
showing that the real criminals
are not Cage, but the officials of
the Cudahy Packing, who fired
him because he was "too old" at
43, and caused him to lose his
home, until his suffering made him
mentally unbalanced temporarily.

year were $4,000. One of the
