CLEAN BILL OF
HEALTH FOR OIL
MEN OF ALBERTA

LETHBRIDGE-The McGillivary
oil commissions report. covering a
lengthy probe of the oil industry
in Alberta, has beep released for
publication. 1t covers over 500
pages and, on the whole, the AL
berta oil industry energies with
colors flying. No serious or i'm
proper practices were uncovered.
The commission finds that the
public is pretty well protected by
reason of competition and price fix
ing by the government on gasoline
is discouraged. The report advises
that the industry be kept free from
government domination.
The commission takes the stand
that the government should not en-
ter the oil business, becoming there
by a competitor with its own citi-
zens. Refinery prices are held to be
fair and reasonable and excessive
profits have not been made by oil
companies operating in Alberta.
Dealing with the retail price of
petroleum products, the commission
finds that prices are not exhorbi-
tant in cities but they are in some
outlying sections. In this connec-
ton, it is recommended that the
retailers be required to post the buy
ing price, selling price and tax paid.
Application of the anti-dumping
provision at present in force would
encourage extension of the market
for Alberta OIL
SO important has the oil industry
become in Alberta that it is planned
by the government to add a school
Of petroleum engineering at the
University of Alberta and a research
branch to carry on work connected

NATIVE CHROME
ORE BREAKS IN
on u. MARKET

The purchase of domestic chrome
ore by the procurement division of
the treasury department is regard
ed as an important factor in the
announcement of chrome mining
in the northwest. Low bidder was
United States Chrome Mines COM
pany, which agreed to deliver 5000
tons of natural lump ore to the U.
S. Ordnance depot at Ogden, Utah,
for $4,000 and for delivery OF
1880 tons of synthetic Jumps
fob. cars at Philadelphia harbor
for $362,5OO. These were the
lowest bids among both domestic
and foreign bidders. U. S. Chrome
operates in California.
Development of Montana chrome
has not yet begun owing largely
to the fact that the American
market has spurned the native ore.
While the U. S. armament program
has emphasized the military uses
Of Chrome, the metals greatest in
dustrial importance undoubtedly
lies in the fact that it is neces-
sary ingredient in the production
of all stainless" steels. Once the
use Of domestic ores is established,
the Montana deposits may have
more rapid development.
Montana's chrome deposits are
chiefly in Saltwater county, in
the Red Lodge area.

SECURITIES ACT
IS LIKELY TO have
SOME AMENDMENTS

Proposed changes in the securi-
ties and exchange commission laws
is expected from the next session
of congress. with changes which
will speed up the flow of capital
into industry and make capital
available to numerous industries
which are vital in our defense pro-
gram" This news is revealed in
publication of correspondence be-
tween E. F. Connely, president of
Investment Bankers Association OF
America, with Clarence F. Lea,
chairman of the house committee
on interstate and foreign commerce
and with Jerome N. Frank, chair
man of the SEC.
The commission asked to be al
lowed until January. 1871, to give
it's recommendation regarding
changes proposed in H. r. 1907
and H. r. 10O13. in order to con-
fer with representatives of various
stock exchanges and of the invest
ment banking industry.
1t is understood that the mining
industry will ask for recognition
in the formulation of changes in
the law.
The attitude of Chairman Lea
is given in one letter in which he
states. "a broad problem that con-
fronts the nation is that of en-.
couraging capital investment. the
employment of capital, and the
consequent employment of labor
Any unnecessary handicaps to the
investment of such capital should
of course, be removed"

LEAD. S. D.-Since its discov-
cry by the Manuel brothers in
1876, the HOmestake mine has
mined 100000 tons OF ore each
year, producing roughly $19,000,OOO
in gold annually. 1t has been in
continuous operation for 81 years.
a long and enviable record for any
mine.
So states a pamphlet issued by
the company, which describes the
mine and its operations in detail.
The metallurgy of gold as ap-
piled to low grade ores such as
the Homestake deposits, resolves
itself into two main operations;
first to liberate the metal from the
worthless rock or gangue in which
il occurs; and second. to recover
the gold so liberated. The highest
degree of efficiency, both mechani-
zeal and chemical. is demanded OF
modern metallurgy in order that
low grade gold ores can be MADE
commercially profitable.
At Homestake. 35 tons of rock
must be broken to obtain one pound
of gold. To insure satisfactory re-
coyeries. 7O96 of this must be
broken to a fineness sufficient TO

Good Mines Are
Hard To Find

One would naturally think, to
hear some politicians talk about
the metal mining industry, that
mines developed and undevelop-
ed are scattered about the coun-
try and easy of access and dis
covery, and that if one mine
plays out all that is necessary is
to start producing from another.
For some strange reason the idea
prevails that there is nothing
difficult about the metal mining
industry, particularly as to find
ing mines. AS a matter of fact,
mines are hard to find, always
have been, and the difficulty is
intensified now that extensive ex-
ploration has caught up with most
OF the ore deposits which adver-
tised their presence by outcrops
or blowOuts.
No new mining district has been
located in the United States for
50 years, and during that period
but few individual mines have been
discovered. Most of the compare
lively few new mines since 1907
haze been located in the districts
already known. This situation
should give great appreciation to
existing metal mines.
