Stocks Continue Rise
As Gains Reach ST.;
Trading Is Moderate
By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, April 21.-The
stock market carried through its
advance today for the second
straight session.
Most sections joined the rise
which extended to around a
point. Losses were fractional and
with one or two exceptions they
didn't exert any pressure in q
major group.
The advance was modest and
trading was moderate.
Railroads were active and
higher. Steels also were active
but they presented a mixed ap-
pearance. Air lines. which are
enjoying a consistently high
traffic movement, were popular
early in the day. They turned
quiet but held to the bulk of
their gains. Radio-televiSions
were active but didn't get any,
where.
Among other higher divisions
were motors, utilities, building
materials and chemicals. Oils
were steady as the Government
filed a civil antitrust suit against
five major companies.
The market got a lift out of
continued highly favorable earn
ingS reports for the first quarter
from some of the larger compa-
nies such as General Electric,
Du Pont, Goodrich and United
States Rubber.
All of those stocks were high
er, and others advancing in
cluded General Motors, Wool
worth, Boeing, Zenith Radio,
American Telephone, ConSoli-
dated Natural Gas, Kennecott
Copper. Allied Chemical, West
inghouSe Electric, American
Woolen, Southern Railway, Pan
American World Airways and
United States Gypsum.
There we're some losers includ-'
ing United States Steel, Good
year, Phelps Dodge, Interna-
tional Paper and Warner Bros.
Corporate bonds we're irregu-
larly higher. Government securi-
ties held steady in the overtime
counter market.

Defense Dept. Considers Closing Commissaries Near Civilian Stores

WASHINGTON, LR - The De- fense Department is reportedly considering closing commissaries at military installations where civilian stores can be reached within 20 minutes.
 Rep. Brooks O-La) conferred with department officials on the matter this week and afterward said he was told the 20-minute rule was under consideration.
 He said he assumed it meant 20 minutes walking time. Brooks said a 20-minute automobile trip could involve considerable distance.
 Congress earlier this year dir ected the Defense Department to see what could be done to elimi- nate government-operated stores on military posts in this country and let private concerns handle the business.

NOTES FOR PROsPEcTORs

' The interest in iron deposits is still high. Representative of steel companies will be in the territory again next year looking for possi- bilities. Anyone knowing of req sonably accessible occurrences of iron would do well to investigate them to determine whether the tonnage is likely to be large.
 With the development of the new treatment methods for low grade iron ores in the Mesabi Range, the possibilities of mining deposits like Klukwan and Snett- isham in Alaska are increasing.
 Large deposits of barite are in demand for use as drilling mud in the petroleum industry. For this use, the barite must be low in cal cium and have a specific gravity higher than Az. As the price of barite is low, the deposit would have to be near water transporta- ton.
 Another industrial mineral that is in increasing demand feldspar. In addition to the glass and cera- mic industries which have long used feldspars, it is now reported : that the steel industry is begin ming to use fe1dspar as a flux in new snl lelting processes.
 Anoth er new use is in cleansers. Like barite, feldspar is low priced and deposits would have to be large and near water transporta- tion to be of commercial interest.
 Flourite, or fluorspar, is yet an- other industrial mineral for which there is a growing demand. The price for it is presently quoted at from $40 to S60 per ton, depending on grade. It is used largely by the steel industry as a Aux and also by the hydrofluoric acid industry
 This latter industry is expand ing rapidly because of the increas- ing use of derivatives by the pet roleum industry in making insec-

 Strongest Eskimo Alive

Alfred Mazonna, AMIGA store manager at Wales, is reputed to be the biggest and strongest Eski- mo alive.
 He stands 6 feet 1 inch tall, tips the scales at 246 pounds, and takes size 50 jacket or shirt. So you can see why he is known from one end of Alaska to another as Big Alfred"
 John Paden reports that he has seen Alfred actually lift 280 pounds with one hand and heave it over his head. Alfred is a full blooded Eskimo and splendid example of his race of fine people.
 With all his great bulk and physical prowess, he has keen brain and shows it in his deal ings with the problems of his na- tive villagers and with AMIGA.
