Chief Engineer of the Alaska Road Com missicn, who returned here today following a month inspection trip of roads and trails. A feeling of optimism is encountered in all mining regions. he said.
 The most important new develop ment is that on Valdez Creek, 60 miles from Cantwell on the Alaska Railroad. There a quartz property is being developed that gives much promise.
 A vein carrying good values has been traced 5000 feet along the surface and an extensive amount of trench work has been done. A small amount of tunnelling was also done. A pilot mill was hauled in over the snow early last Spring and put into operation during the summer. The ore run through it during the season had an average value of SAP per ton, MT. Sterling was informed.
 A company operating on Peters Creek in the Cache Creek region, operators along Steese Highway, on the lower Kuskokwim, the entry of w. E. Dunkle into the Flat district, operations at Fairbanks and Nome and in other placer mining areas, all reported better results and brighter outlooks.
 The placer miners were aided in their operations by an unusually rainy season. But road construc- ton work was materially retarded by the rain. However, good progress was made on new construction and
