per acre and today enjoys higher
standard of living.

an ammunition bearer, daringly
moved about getting it to the guns.

YOU COULDN'T PICK better time to study
up on the iron tax situation, Mr.. Johnson.
new mining era lies just ahead.
True, much of Minnesotas open-pit iron is gone.
But in addition to the remaining highgrade ore,
have ncalculable billions of tons of low-grade and
taconite ores.
These lOwer-quaity ores must be used, along
with the highgrade ore, to keep Minnesota in the
mining picture. If they're used in big way, 1t can
mean big things for the state.
1t can mean more jobs Because extracting the iron
from lowgrade and taconite ores is complex manu-
featuring operation more manpower will be needed.
Example: it will take tlCiCe as many men to fill
oreboa with taconite concentrate against from
an open-pit mine.
Manufacturing can also mean more years of
payroll revenues for Minnesota labor more income
for our railroads, more business for our merchants
more demand for the produce of our farmers.
Yes can help bring this to pass-by treating our
mining industry fairly we treat other industries.
And yet right now, some people proposing new
iron ore legislation which would tend to discourage
the producers from investing maximum amount to
develop lowgrade and taconte ores. Does this make
sense?
Fair treatment would make sense. Fair treat
ment would help MnnesOta's iron ore industry COM
pete with the tacOnite and lOwgrade ores of other
states and the highgrade ores of other countries.
1t would help give Minnesota bigger ore industry
than it has ever known before.
Why we publish these foets
We of the iron industry want to stay in Mime
sota-permanenty.
We want to insure the future of Minnesota iron ore
wealth by investing the millions of dollars needed to
hasten development of low grade and taconte ores
We want to help make it possible for the people of
Minnesota to enjoy even greater benefits from this
expanded industry-both in dollars and jobs-for
many generations to come.
We publish these facts so that no matter who you
are, where you live, what you do for living Won
may rest assured that

A down-to-earth
suggestion
from Blue Earth

Already the cry has gone out
let's raise the iron ore tax" writes
NJ. A. Johnson, editor of the Blue
Earth Post. Taxation within the
state has been levied the easy
way, taxing as much as the traffic
will bear. Lack of correction has
taken industries to other states.
Before we increase iron ore taxes
let Minnesota study our pre-
carious tax situation"
