Treasure Hunt Will Be Most Thorough In History of the U. S.


 WASHINGTON-Uncle Sam is conducting a treasure hunt-the most thorough in the country's history.
 It's scientific search for seven minerals essential in the making of war weapons. They are: man. ganese, tin, nickel, chromium, tungsten, antimony and mercury
 The Army and Navy Munitions minerals'-that is, if this coun- mlnreals"-that is, if this coun- try went to war, all would have to be obtained, in whole or in part, from sources outside the United States.
 A four year investigation of ore deposits is being made by ex pertS of the Geological Survey and the Bureau of Mines. Ore samples are being analysed in government laboratories and the Bureau of Mines is doing re- search on metallurgical methods.
 What We Have-And Haven't
 Here's the situation on the sev en sought-for metals:
 MANGANESE - Probably the most critical mineral deficiency. Little U. s. ore is of type suit able for making ferro-manganese the alloy used in steel manufac- ture Needed for airplanes, other weapons and precision machin- cry; Chief hope is future develop ment of methods to improve the considerable quantity of low grade manganese ores.
 TIN-SecOnd most serious min eral shortage problem. Domestic production less than 1-10 of l per cent of consumption. Some na- tive undeveloped resources. Most of our supply comes from Asia. Used in gun metals, soldiers, bear ingS and for protective coating on steel tin" cans.
 NICKEL Hardly any domes- tic resources but Canada has about 90 per cent of world sup ply. Essential in toughening steel and manufacture of armor plate. Nickel steel used in large cal iber rifles, marine shaftings, au- tos and bridge construction.
 CHROMIUM-Current produc- tion insignificant but consider able undeveloped chromite ore which could be used in emergen- cy, providing methods are work ed out in advance. Essential for rust-resisting steels. Used in ar mor plate, projectiles, high speed cutting tools.
 TUNGSTEN-Domestic produc tion, about half of nations con- sumption, could be stepped up in an emergency. Ores widespread in U. S., but commercial produc- tion confined to II western states Essential in certain tool steels and incandescent lamps. Our big gest imports from China and Brit ish Malaga.
 ANTIMONY-Most of our sup plies come from a Texas smelter which treats Mexican ores. U. s. resources in this country very limited, but proximity to Mexico helps our strategic position. Used in bullets and shrapnel, anl alloy ed with lead for storage batter ies.
 MERCURY u. s. imports about half of its required sup plies. Self-sufficiency might be attained for brief emergency period under stimulation of high prices. Used for detonating high explosives and for many indus trial activities. Several substitut- es, but for military use mercury

YVES IS UP IN THE AIR
CHAPTER VII

T have asked you to come in, , Dr. Woodrow Wesley York was say ing, because it is faculty ruling that we make a first-week check of our students, Miss Bailey. Pueblo University always maintains close touch with its registrants, to assist them in every way. Have you found your courses satisfactory? What you hoped they might be?"
 "Oh, yes, pr. York!"
 Bonnie Bailey had a way of say ing "Oh, yes" She emphasized the yes, made it sound of enthusiasm and gratitude so that it was dis tinctly complimentary. Dr. York looked up from his record book at her.
 "Ah - quite so," he murmured then, inadequately. Miss Bailey always distracted him.
 And Dr. York, I'm sorry I got myself talked about. Am l to be punished? Daddy said I ought to be skinned for"
 Miss Bailey, you are regarded as an adult here, which of course you are. Pueblo does not punish Of course, certain disciplinary measures have to be invoked from time to time, but your ah - episode with the airplane and the Border Patrol was distinctly your own af- fair, and not reprehensible in the slightest, so far as can see. 11- strateS the need for additional autogiro planes in the border serv- ice. With only three autogiros now, more should be added as rapidly as"

 "Yes! Do you?"
 "Why, ah - no. That Is, l nave never once been in"
 Goodness, Dr. York, you ought to be ashamed! This isn't the cov- cred wagon era. This is 1940!"
 Quite so, Miss Bailey. But my scholastic pursuits"
 "Oh, ps-s-s-s-st!' She hissed at the idea, wrinkling her nose, then winked impersonally before she talked on. Listen here, Dr. York, the kids all say you are very hu- man, really"
 "They - they - how was that?" He put down his record book and frowned. in credulous, through his henvy trimmed spectacles.
 The older students say you are a swell sort if you'd let your- sele be, and you're not broken down in years. Now listen--you're going flying with me-todayp
 Why, aw, Miss Bailey, T."
 Come on! Glasses are over for the day and it's still just 3:30. Come on, Dr. York! Don't be a droop!"
 "A - droop." He echoed it. Droop. It was new in his vocabu- lary of recognized slang. Droop. Patiently, one was not expected to be droop, if one would exert proper influence over the students. And the university president had said that he, very young PhD., should perhaps be closer to the student activities than any other faculty man. The thought of flying and Miss Bailey's unmistakably charming manner and, ah, her lips

 "Oh, quite!"

Wered hlS thoughts, shouting III HIS ear. Like it?" Her grin was impish.
 "Oh, quite!"
 Good! We'll coast some"
 Sliding, loafing along up high, motor idling, enabled them to talk more easily. Ronica noted that his somewhat pale, indoorish skin had taken on pink glow of exhilara- tion. Also, he had taken his glasses off.
 Its surprising how much dif- ferent you look," she said,
 T beg pardon?"
 "Without your glasses, I mean. You look so much nicer. No, don't mean that, Dr. York. I mean younger. Of course you look nice with them"
 'I-ah, thank you. T."
 What I mean Is, you should get smaller frames, think. These are to heavy. Do you have to wear them?"
 "Only when I read, but one gets into a habit, and"
 That's all of that, then. You start leaving them off,"
 He looked at her with raised eye brows. Here was a girl, student, actually ordering him! Giving him personal commands. It wasn't done in a university, he felt, but-oddly, he liked it. It was distinctly pleasant and it made sense.
 Dr. Woodrow Wesley York blink ed. He glanced at Ronica Bailey again and decided that yes, she was undoubtedly the prettiest of all the girls who had ever matriculated at Pueblo University. It made one wish that Fate had not
 There's a dance Saturday night" she suddenly announced.
 Quite so."
 Stop it!" she commanded, gaily. "'Quite SO is something to say when you turn 50 years, Dr. York. Can't you be yourself?"
 He was shocked again, and looked it.
 "I-I-you-"
 She laughed happily, musically. You're funny but I like you, really. I think you haven't been any too happy. Have you?"
 'I-yes. That is"
 Will you take me to the dance Saturday, Dr. York?"
 She might have shot a gun. Or power dived or looked a loop or, say, slipped him. No matter; it couldn't have sstonished him as much as what she had said. His own voice, though, was paralyzed now.
 "The kids say you have been girl shy,'' she went On, eyes danc- ing, but the truth is, you're awfully looking and you're not as old as you think you are. I told some of the girls I bet l could break you out of your shell.
 Still he could say nothing.
 Mind if I drop the Doctor? I mean outside the classroom, of course. How about Wesley? What do your intimate friends call you?"
 "W-Wes." He finally croaked that.
 "Wes. It's okay - Wes! It's hu- man. Here, you want to handle the controls some? Seriously, I'm not trying to f1irt with you. never f1irt. I despise hirts. Wes. I'm just trying to stir you awake and hope you don't get mad at me. Now grasp this lever first, and"
