Pitter-p -patter, raindrops, how sad
you sound tonight,
AS though you're lonely and de-
pressed and long to see sunlight.
AS you fall upon this world, this

You must think how sad it is for us
to have to fight.
For us to have to fight Is one Of
those sad things
That's forced upon this land of ours
by lords and greedy kings.
Oh, raindrops, as you fall tonight,
just pray that we will be
At peace once more with all the

Rioters Work
For the Axis

II HE rioting Of last night and today is the most
disastrous thing that has happened to Detroit
since Pearl Harbor
Unless it stops at once it may we'll become a
disaster to the United States war effort, disaster
as grave as the loss of major battle on one Of
the war fronts
Because unless it stops Immediately it is
bound to interrupt war production in this war
production center Of the world.
If it continues, many war plants here will
have to close because the rioting inevitably will
spread to those plants.
Now is no time to argue the causes of the
rioting which is depored alike by the great decent
majority of Negro and white citizens Of Detroit
The trouble obviously was fostered by unruly and
irresponsible minorities of both groups.
NOW is THE TINE FOR ALL PATRIOTIC
DETROITERS, REGARDLESS OF RACE, TO
COOPERATE IN A DETERMINED EFFORT
TO STAMP OUT THE DISORDERS.
A counts of Detroit's riots will be the best
L news of the day to Axis leaders,
Detroiters who participate in rioting or
encourage it, ACTUALLY ARE WORKING
FOR THE AXIS ALTHOUGH THEY MAY
NOT REALIZE THAT.
There is one immediate and direct and
effective way for Detroiters to help quell the
trouble
That Is 64 attending strictly to their o,cn
business;
And by Keeping their tempcrs ,ceH in check;
And By not copg,egaiag in c,ords on the
streets or in public places.
If they observe these three suggestions they
will be aiding in the best possible manner to keep
peace in Detroit

 So far in northwestern Alaska the part which the Territorial Department of Mines has played in the strategic minerals pro- gram has been mainly the gath ering of information on a large number of deposits and the des- cr;ption of individual deposits. Such information is necessary to production during the war and should also influenSe postwar lode developments. In the Inter for where the war minerals pro- gram was begun earlier than in this part of Alaska, several mines are now producing war minerals and more are expected to come into production during this year and next.-ESkil Anderson, Field Engineer, Territorial Department of Mines, Nome, Alaska.

STRATEGIC MINERAL RESUME OF THE DEPT. OF MINES

rock crystals were examined. An occurrence, near Kiana, of col umbium and tantalum, rare me- tals which are much needed dur ing the present war, is also be- ing investigated.
 Examinations of antimony, tungsten and mercury occur renceS, and of a coal and a lead silver deposit in the Kug- ruk river basin were also made. Many of the prospects examined are in regions accessible at pres ent only by back-packing in the summer but most are not far distant from the sea or naviga- ble rivers and transportation costs would not be much more of an obstacle to development than the cost of transportation in the Snake and Nome river basins.
 Reports on examinations made during the 1943 field season will be prepared during the coming winter and will be on file at the Juneau and Nome offices of the Territorial Department of Mines.
 Three government agencies have been working on mineral deposits in northwestern Alaska during the summer. The chief function of the Territorial De- partment of Mines has been to make preliminary investigations as described above. The U. s. Geological Survey has also been engaged in making preliminary IesoIom 1eQMemos qa!M) sIeo!Ho examinations and in mapping and geological studies of the tin deposits near the tip of Seward Peninsula on which the U.

General Functions of the De-
 partment of Mines

The Department of Mines is a Territorial agency headed by the Commissioner of Mines for Alas ka, B. D. Stewart, with head quarters in Juneau. Under the Commissioner of Mines are two field engineers, one at Anchor age and one at Fairbanks, field engineer and assayer at Nome, and three Territorial assayers stationed at Ketchikan, Anchor age and College.
 Before the war the Depart ment of Mines was mainly con- cerned with gold mining and prospecting for gold. During the past three years, however, most of it's facilities have been direct ed towards the discovery and de- velopment of strategic mineral deposits. The assay offices at College, Anchorage and Nome have become purchasing depots for the Metals Reserve Company for ores of mercury, tungsten antimony and tin.
 The majority of the cities in Alaska are situated in or near mining districts and in normal times are supported almost en- tirely by the mining industry. The purpose of the Department of Mines has been to render any assistance possible to the mining industry as a whole and to pros- pectors and miners as individ- uals. Exploration work and the provision of an initial stimulus to the development of new de- posits has become an increasing ly important function since the beginning of the war.
 The field engineers give tech nical assistance to miners and prospectors, make mine and geo. logical examinations and collect information on mineral deposits
