1880 square miles to the east Of
Yellowknife River.
Previous to 1929 the principle min
eral developments in the Northwest
Territories were the location and par
tial development of lead-zinc deposits
near Pine Point, Great Slave Lake, and
the discovery of oil at point about
so miles below Norman On the
Mackenzie River, where there are now
two producing wells. AS a result of
aerial explorations carried out in 1929,
copper-sulphide deposits were discov-
cred in the area between Great Bear
Lake and the Coppermine River, and
this was followed by a notable discov-
cry of pitchblende-silver deposits, from
which radium is obtained, at La Bine
Point, on the eastern side of Great
Bear Lake, in May, 1880. In 1885 gold
was discovered near the mouth of yell
lowknife River and on Outpost Island,
and also in the vicinity of Taltson
River on the south shore of Great
Slave Lake. In the Fall of 1885 a gold
strike was reported at Gordon Lake, SO
miles northeast of Yellowknife Bay,
which seems likely to rank as one of
the most important finds in recent
years. A nickel and cobalt-bearing
mineral deposit has been located a few
miles east Of the point where the
Francois River enters the eastern arm
of Great Slave Lake.
According to recent reports, Can
ada's northern mineral front continues
to be the scene of great activity, and
aerial transportation companies are
busily engaged in carrying freight,
supplies and men to remote areas. In
most Of the mining country Of the
North there are numerous lakes which
provide suitable landing for aircraft
with floats in Summer and with axis
Ia Winter.

Opens Up New Frontier
OF Mining in Canada's Northwest

OTTAWA, Canada.-Just as the COW
cred wagon and pack traiL- of pioneer
days carried the tide of civilization
westward on the North American con-
tinent, so the airplane of today is
opening up a new mining frontier in
the Canadian Northwest Territories
Long regarded only as region OF ice
and snow, this vast expanse, which
embraces more than one-third of all
Canada, is now destined to play an
important role in the economic life Of
the Dominion due to the introduction
of aerial transportation. Many areas
once almost inaccessible are now
within q few hours flying time from
large centers OF population, and regions
rich in minerals of economic i'm
portance-radium, copper, nickel, gold,
lead, zinc and silver-await the pros
pector.
The year 1929 was the turning point
in the affairs of the Northwest Terri
tories, when mineral exploration COM
panies demonstrated that the airplane
could be used to advantage in these
northern latitudes. The range of the
prospector,s activities had previously
been restricted mainly to lands in close
proximity to rivers and lakes, and little
was known of the country back from
navigable waters. With the advent Of
aerial transportation the movement Of
the prospector became more wide
spread and the necessity arose for
maps far more detailed than those
then available. BY resorting to the
airplane and the modern science Of
map-making, including aerial photog-
rahpy, Typographical and geological
mapping were speeded up. In 1890
and 1881 an area Of II 900 square miles
to the east Of Great Bear Lake was
photographed, and. last year, to give
the most recent example, "a AREA o4

the softening formulas Of diplomacy,
but it was refusal just the same.
Then, on October 20. Italy slightly
changed its attitude and, in Difference
to French and British wishes, 1t agreed
that the recall of volunteers ought
to take precedence over the granting
Of belligerent rights to Salamanca and
Valencia, but without indicating how
many men would be involved in such
move. The meeting of the Non-In-
tervention Committee in London fol-
lowed, and Italy felt that once again
the way was open to play for time
by raising all kinds of secondary
issues and thus, behind the screen
Of diplomatic controversy, to prepare
safely for final victory in the Span
ish peninsula.
Presses Military Preparations.
All sort of huge military prepara-
tions on Italian territory pointed to
the Duce's resolution to do his utmost
to achieve the rout of the Valencia
government before the end of the
year-a resolution that. at this writ
ing, the discussions of the Non-Inter-
vention Committee do not appear
likely to counteract seriously.
A few weeks ago the French consul
in Malaga was ordered by the nation
alist authorities to keep to his house.
Apparently. the penalty was inflicted
upon him because the French govern
ment had ordered the arrest, in French
territory, of Comdr. Truncoso, military
governor of Irun, who had organized
raid on a government submarine in
the harbor Of Brest. Later on, Gen.
Franco had to recognize that Comdr.
Truncoso's action could not be de-
fended-yet the French consul was
not released. The only possible ex-
PLANTATION is that he was put under
lock and key because, had he been
left at large, he would have observed
the arrival of Italian troops and war
material in the neighborhood of NAL
aga, great port.
In addition, deeds Of piracy are still
being recorded. On october 4, the
British cruiser Basilisk was attacked
between Malaga ana valencia, AND
notwithstanding the denial that Lon
don issued for the sake of Anglo
German relations-it can be added
that the cruisers assailant, the Ger
man submarine U-24 of Wilhelms-
haven, was sent to the bottom.
On October "a, French submarine
chaser had the worst of an encounter
with an unidentified airplane off
Minorca. and the French admiralty
had to admit that in this juncture its
patrol had proved inadequate.
Did Mussolini, during his stay in
Berlin, succeed in obtaining from
Adolf Hitler and Herman Goering that
promise of unlimited military assist
ance which, hitherto, he had vainly
endeavored to get from them? Or are
both dictators convinced that their

losophy in the methods adopted by
Italy, Ethiopia, Japan and China
might appeal to nations which have old
scores to settle with their neighbors.
1t is for all these reasons that Wash
ington is not inclined to treat lightly
the Rome Berlin Toxic axis. The ad-
ministration recognizes the dangerous
implications, and is aware what a
complete confusion might be created
in the world If this new alliance is
successful in obtaining all the dicta-
tors want.
There is no unity of policies and of
views between Great Britain and
France, which are the pivots of Euro
pean democracy. In the light of what
is going on in Europe, the State De-
partment feels that the Western pow
ers will be forced to yield every time
Hitler and Mussolini hold out their
mailed fists.
Washington is not concerned over
the fact that France and Great Brit
ain might have to yield few thousand
square miles of their African possess
sions. 1t is concerned over the fact
that the example set by a successful
German-Italian-Japanese policy might
become standard to be followed by
other nations.

own, so as to cut off the Valencia gov
ernment from all outside supplies?
At last the British government was
moved out Of its passivity and, not
withstanding the German and Italian
refusal to attend, the Conference of
Nyon was summoned. Here nine Med
iterranean powers gave British and
French squadrons the mandate to de-
stroy summarily every attacking ship
or airplane Mussolini gave way, with
a deep sense of humiliation. And he
was forced to attend. 10 days later, a
convention clearly intended to keep
him within bounds.
Had he surrendered? Was he about
to revise his wild schemes of terri
torial and political upheaval? Was
he about to perceive that such an
upheaval could not fail to prove more
advantageous to the pan-Germanist
policy than to his own? Would he
realize that his Roman Empire, in
such a case, would be overshadowed
by Germanic domination and that he
had better seek some kind of COM
promise with the Western powers?
With such thoughts as these. the
deep-roted optimism of the British
ministers was revived and once more
blossomed. On September 20 Mr..
Eden, in talk with Mr.. Delbos, the
French foreign minister, harped on
the old theme that for the present
there was no necessity of urging Italy
to withdraw from Spain the 10000
or 10000 men who fight under Gen.
Franco, or to evacuate the Island of
Majorca and other points of vantage
"Let Us Wait" Says Eden.
LET us wait" said Mr.. Eden, until
the Spanish Nationalists have won
their victory. Then we shall know
for certain whether the Italian troops,
being deprived of all plausible mo-
tives for remaining where they are,
will at last re-embark or, alternatively,
more deeply intrench themselves"
But" retorted Mr.. Delbos, mean
while they will have been given q
long respite and it will be all the
more difficult to compel them to clear
Odos 1aiiO tifS SdlllC ACul1lh
to the Germans in Spanish Morocco,
in the Canary Islands. at Ifzli and in
the Rio de Oro."
Mr.. Eden was shaken in his i'm
perturbability by the French foreign
minister's exhortations. He hastened
back to London CT shall be more USE
full there than in Geneva!'). -Four
days later the French Charge DAFT
faires, with the full support of his
British colleague, proposed to Italy
that the problem of the volunteers
should be singled out for direct treat
ment in an Anglo-French-It Italian ne
gotiation.
A week afterward joint note Of
the British and French governments
officially formulated that offer. The
refusal of Italy was wrapped up in

the value OF which now averages more
than $2,000,000 month, and the ire
mendous contributions made by the
United States Treasury to the Philip
pine government in the form of re-
funds of Philippine coconut oil tax
and Philippine sugar processing tax.
These windfalls amount to more than
$30,000.000 annually. Last summer
accumulated collections of coconut oil
excise tax totaling approximately $780,
100000 were paid to the Philippine
government.
After spending eight months abroad
President Quezon returned to Manila
last August and called the National
Assembly, q unicameral body which
he Is now seeking to make bicameral,
to special session. He recommended
means of spending the windfall from
the United States.
First problem he tackled was the
ancient agrarian trouble, which has
caused sporadic uprisings in various
parts of the archipelago. He recon-
mended the appropriation of $500,
900 for the purchase of large haci-
endas. Observers were surprised by
the small size Of the allotment. QUE
xon explained that if he announced
that the government would buy all
large estates, those who would want
to sell their haciendas would promptly
start tenant trouble. He said, how
ever, that he was determined to
destroy the political power of haci-
enda owners, who control the social
and political life in their respective
bailiwicks.
In line with the Commonwealth
policy to develop Mndanao, Quezon
revealed that he had been In negotia.

example is followed, as it surely will be,
by other Latin American dictators,
consequences of the most serious sort
will follow for the United States. Such
a development would mean the death
of Pan Americanism. 1t would also
mean the death of the century-old poll
icy of the United States of compelling
Europe to keep "hands off" the states
Of Latin America. Except for Cuba and
one or two other countries. the ties
binding the United States to the re-

strong. 1t is doubtful If they could
keep the continent bound to democ-

Oyster Eating Is Urged
To Obtain World Peace

COLCHESTER, England @.-A
suggestion that world peace might be
attained by eating oysters was made
by Sir Holman Gregory, former re-
corder of London, at the local feast
celebrating opening of the oyster
season.
Nowadays" he declared, "the
world is bubbling, and there seems no
chance Of settling down. What pity
it is that We cannot cultivate enough
oysters to give to our politicians
throughout the world and get them
into the state of mind that we are in

COmfrey Man Fatally
Injured Under Train

Comfrey-William Baier, So,
died at New Ulm hospital Sun
day evening from horrible injur-
les received about 80 a. m. Sun
day when his body was run over
by a freight train at the Comfrey
depot platform. He had lain by
the tracks from the time of the
accident until $3.50 a. m. when
found by Section Foreman Reetz.
Coroner G. F. Reineke of Brown
county decided the death was &C
cidental. Baier may have fallen
asleep on the platform and rolled
onto the tracks or he may have
been sucked under by the passing
trains. Two freights meet there
at the time the accident is be-
lieved to have happened.
His left arm was severed below
the elbow, his skull fractured, his
left leg and right arm broken and
his body one mass of bruises. His
wife and daughter survive.
