 SEATTLE. Sept. 11-With the ap- preciable increase in all industries, and the ensuing growth in popula- ticn, as well as the nutritional ed- ucation being carried on by the Government for the furthering of family and community health, milk and milk products take a most im- portant place on the list of health building foods.

Mine Men To Meei in
 Convention
Eighth Annual Metal Al. fair 10 Be Held in San
 Francisco in Week

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24-Faced with the possibility of shortage of machinery, replacement parts and supplies for operation of their mines, over two thousand mining men will assemble at the 8th an- rual metal mining convention and exposition of the American, Mining Congress at San Francisco from September 29 to October 2, to dis cuss the need for adequate priority treatment by defense agencies for the equipment and supplies nec- essary to maintain production of the metals.
 With the national defense organ izations clamoring for an ever-in- creasing production of metals to meet the requirements of the ar senal of democracy, mine operators fand equipment manufacturers have expressed growing concern as to the securing of materials for all types of mining machinery, replacement parts and supplies. Recent issuance of general preference rating order by the Office of Production Man lagement has eased the situation in certain respects. Resulting from several months of effort by the American Mining Congress. this order grants preference rating of | A-3 to manufacturers producing machinery directly necessary for underground and open-cut pro- duction Of both metals and coal, and for milling and beneficiation of metallic ores However, no general priorities treatment has yet been approved whereby mine operators may readily obtain current operat- ing supplies and repair and main- tenance requirements.
 At the forthcoming meeting of the American Mining Congress del- egates will hear Dr.. Shaw Liver more,, of the Office of Production Management, outline the progress to date in the establishment of priorities for mining equipment as well as what steps the OPM, is plan ming to take to meet the increased demands of the mining industry. He will speak at the afternoon session. Thursday, October 9. and immediately following bis address delegates will have the opportunity of discussing their problems with him. H
 All mining men have been invited to attend the convention, at which problems of priorities on mining equipment, taxation, labor relations and legislation affecting mining will also be discussed

 AFTER VI5IT TO |
 IOWA BIRTHPLACE

Prosperity has rounded the cor ner with alacrity in the States. but Banker John Beck, president of the First National Bank of Ju- neau, nevertheless. wouldn't swap places with anyone south of Taku Glacier.
 After a six weeks trip through the Middle West and up the Pa cific Coast. Beck returned to Ju- neau last night on the steamer Princess Louise. He visited several banks in Chicago and then paid q visit to his birthplace in Straw berry Point, Iowa. In Cushing, Okla. he visited his sister, Mrs Dora Lohhaus, a former resident of Juneau.
 Everyone is making money and labor is scarce" Beck admitted, but the States are too hot for me. I never saw such hot weather The Middle West, of course, hasn't benefited as much by the defense boom as have the manufacturing centers, but the agricultural picture this year is the best it's been for ] long time. Even in Oklahoma, which isn't much of wheat state, the farmers are figuring on cash profits this fall. They have tre- mendous wheat crop this year
 On the return trip, Beck vaca- toned briefly in Los Angeles and San Francisco before heading homeward.
