 Almost half of the enterprises are essentially hydraulic mines and about a quarter of these plants use scrapers or bulldozers or pumping plants. Relatively low costs are sometimes obtained at well equipped hydraulic mines, but consideration must be given each individual piece of ground. A bulldozer-pumping plant com- bination may be economical on one creek and a white elephant on another.

Colonies Would Give Italy,

By WALLACE CARROLL
United Press Staff Correspondent

GENEVA, Sept. 21,-CUPl-
British Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden yesterday told the
League of Nations that the Uhlt.
cd States could take an important
role in restoring order among ,ne
ouarreling nations of the worsa. :.
He spoke of the dangers Oh d
general European war ana h'au J
broad gestures of friendship any J
cooneration toward Germany ana
ItaIv as well as the United States:
DeIeoates of the world forum Oh
nearly three-score nations con,
wenad in the midst of widespread
tension and undeclared wars: - -.
construed Eden's speech as lndi,
eating his belief that United
States collaboration would go far
in soothing the Anglers OF Ger
many and Italy. 49,.
Eden said that a British-Amer,-
lean commercial agreement would
he a most important step toward
uniting the world on the road to
security and better times.
at is a fact of greatest import
ance," he said, that under the
leadership of President Roosevelt
and Secretary of State Hull the
United States has adopted a con-
sistent, rigorous policy for reduc-
ton of trade barriers"
An Anglo-American agreement
on a most favored nation basis.
he added, would stimulate world
trade because Britain has the
largest import market in the
world while British and American
markets absorb nearly 80 per cent
of the worlds trade output.
In significant sequence, Eden
turned toward Germany's de-
mands for return of her colonies
and access to raw materials. The
raw materials problem, he con-
tended, is not essentially mat
ter of colonies because all col
onies together produce only three
per cent of the worlds raw prod
uctS.
Zone of the chief difficulties is
not in obtaining raw materials
but paying for them," he said.
He said Great Britain was with
out prejudice and was ready to
discuss any powers suggestions
for general reduction of tariffs
in colonial possessions, providing
reciprocity was maintained.
1--WE also are ready at any
time to join in an international
agreement for reduction and linn
itations of ornaments" he added.
"But until such an agreement has
been reached Britain will rearm
to the extent necessary to her
own security and that of the Brit
ish empire, and to fulfillment OF
her international obligations. In
cooperation we can achieve much
in conflict we shall lose all"
Then, to impress the powers
that British Cancellation has its
limits, Eden announced that Brit
ain is now building 100000 tons
of new warships, costing S65O,-
100000. These warships are a
part of the $7,5O0,0O0,0OO Brit;
ish rearmament program that will
reach it's peak in 1889.
Many statesmen believed that
Eden's bid for United States CO.
operation took it's cue from Sec

not have the same trouble Umr
Fluker's Indicator had during the
softball series.
