U. 5. Deficiency Grows
In Some War Minerals
By the Associated Press.


The United States has strength
ened its position as a producer Of
nitrates, potash, platinum and some
other strategic war minerals since
the World War, but is more de-
pendent upon foreign countries for
manganese, chromium and nickel.
DR.. John w. Finch, director of
the Bureau of Mines, said this
country no longer is virtually de-
pendent upon Chile for nitrates,
since a substantial part of the con-
sumption is supplied by synthetic
material He added that a large
part of the Nations supply Of pot
ash is produced at home and that
the capacity is ample to supply all
needs.
Operations in Alaska have in
creased the domestic production of
platinum, while molybdenum and
vanadium supplies are adequate.
Pyrite, which the United States
imported from Spain during the
World War, is now produced in sub
stantial quantities.
The deficiency of manganese and
chromium was attributed to world
war depletion OF limited high grade
reserves. The nickel shortage, he
said, is traceable to the transfer of
refining operations from the United
States to Canada.
This country still is entirely de-
pendent upon foreign imports for
tin, DR.. Finch asserted, and alu-
minum manufacturers have obtained
much of their ore from South
America since 1923 although they
are large bauXite deposits in Ar
kansas.

The Political Mill
Democratic Majority in Senate
Is a Certainty for 1910

OF the % Democratic Senators
up for reelection II may be listed
as strong supporters of the New
Deal President and all his works,
2 strong supporters of his pro-
gram except the court-packing bill
and 8 anti-New Deal Democrats.
The - who went along with the
President through thick and thin
are Andrews of Florida, Ashurst of
Arizona, Bilbo Of Mississippi, Chavez
of New Mexico, Guffey of Penn
sylvania, McKellar of Tennessee,
Mead of New York, Minton Of In
diana, Radcliffe of Maryland, Pitt
man of Nevada, Schwellenbach of
Washington and Truman of Mis-
souri,. Connally of Texas and
O'Mahoney of Wyoming broke with
the President over the court bill,
but have been with him on prac-
tically every other issue of i'm
portance.
Anti-New Deal Faction.
The Democratic Senators who are
generally considered anti-New Deal,
up for reelection, are Burke of
Nebraska, Byrd of Virginia, Donahey
of Ohio, Gerry of Rhode Island,
Holt Of West Virginia, King of Utah,
Maloney of Connecticut, Walsh OF
Massachusetts, and Wheeler of Mon
tana
In the elections next year, some
of the most ardent of the New
Dealers are likely to fall by the
wayside, either in primaries or gen.
eral election. Guffey of Pennsyl-
vania has bitter opposition in his
own party, for some of the Demo-
Gratis accuse him Of wrecking the
party in 1888, when he split the
organization after he had been re-
fused gubernatorial nomination.
Pennsylvania swung strongly to
the G. 0. P. last year, and the
chances are Guffey will be defeated
even If he be renominated. Senator
Guffey has been one of the most
ardent supporters of a third term
nomination for Mr.. Roosevelt, the
theory being that with the President
again on the ticket the Pennsyl-
vania Democrats would again unite
and the big Negro vote in the State
would go Democratic again, plus
lot of liberals.
Seantors Minton of Indiana and
SchWellenbach of Washington are
two more 100 per cent New Dealers
who may have difficulty winning re-
| election. Minton will, of course, sup
port Mr.. Roosevelt for a third term
If the President seeks it. Barring
Mr.. RoOsevelt's open candidacy,
however Minton will go to the limit
for Paul V. McNutt, F. S. A. ad-
ministrator and former Governor of
the Hoosier State. McNutts nomi-
nation for President might swing
Indiana to the Democratic column.
But Senator Minton's own race for
reelection is not the motivating
reason he is backing McNutt for
the presidential nomination. He is
a friend of McNutt and believes he
will make good candidate as well
as a good President if elected.
Chances of Republicans.
OF the anti-New Deal Democrats,
several may be defeated by Repub-
lican candidates, even if they win
denomination at the hands of the
Democrats. This is true of Burke
in Nebraska, Donahey in Ohio, Gerry
in Rhode Island, Holt in West Vir-
ginia and Maloney in Connecticut.
Even King in Utah and Walsh in
Massachusetts, might have a tough
time winning reelection If the po-
litical turnover In the presidential
election is large.

pick up Senate seats in IL of the

SHANGHAI, Aug. 29.-A secret
session of the New Kuomintang
Party Congress, presided over by
Wang Ching-wei, disaf1ected former
Premier of China, now acting in
concert with the Japanese, was re-

motion of censure for Generaissimo

peace.
Wang was said to have been
elected president of the new party

Japanese conspicuously stayed away.
The 240 Chinese delegates repre-

trades.
The meeting was held at the
strongly fortified home of Wang,
just outside the International Set

Wang broke with Chang Kali

broadcast a sweeping peace appeal,
