Alaska School of Mines
Makes Available Book On
GeOchemical Prospecting

The University of Alaska schoo.
of mines last week made available
to the public copyrighted print
ed booklet titled Elementary
Geochemical Prospecting Meth
DDS"
Editor of the publication, which
is the first of its type, is Leo
Mark Anthony, assistant professor
of mining extension.
The geochemical prospecting
methods explained in the booklet
are the general reconnaissance
methods developed by the u. S.
Geological Survey and the Uni
versity of Alaska School of Mines.
Prof. Anthony said that geo.
chemical prospecting supplements
the older methods Of prospecting
for ore deposits and enables the
proSpector to seek out invisible
signs of naturalization which
have gone undecided in the past.
In its use of sensitive, but cheap
and rapid, analytical methods to
find mineral dispersion patterns
in water, soil, vegetation, sedi-
ment and rock, geochemical pros
pecting offers a new approach to
the problem of probing the pros
pecting areas.
Written in easily understand
able terms, the booklet is avail
able at ST from the school.

Hints BIC. May
Trade Power For
Alaska Corridor

VICTORIA, BIC, PA yelled
suggestion British Columbia might
be willing to trade Columbia
river hydro power for access
rights through the Alaska Pan
handle was issued Monday night
by Premier WAC. Bennett.
The guarded invitation to the
bargaining table was made by the
premier in a banquet address to
the 35th general conference of
the Pacific Northwest Trade Asso-
citation.
The BIC. government is fully
aware" of the needs of the US
Pacific Northwest for power, he
said, "juSt as I am sure they are
cognizant of our needs, for ex-
ample, of an outlet to the Pacific
through the Alaska Panhandle"
eff the interests of both parties
are understood then certainly a
mutually satisfactory arrange
ment can be reached the pre-
mier said.
Bennett said his government
must safeguard the vital inter
ests of our people :. and assure
that adequate supplies of power
are available for our present and
future requirements"
But he felt the Columbia river
power development can be solved
in the best interests of all parties
concerned"
He said BC.'s dependence on
the US. market for sale of its
products has potential dangers"
"A small fluctuation of demand
lumber, for example in the
United States can have very un-
favorable repercussions on our
economy" he said.

proceeds from ID cities in 1854
and 1855 shows sales decreased
$9O8,800, according to a report
compiled by the Alaska Resources

Total inferred sales during 1854
amounted to $53,145,3 $50, COM
pared to $52,236,75O in 1855, a
decrease of IT per cent, accord
ing to the report. Six cities show
ed gain in sales, seven showed
loss and one remained even.
Ketchikan and Seward showed
the greatest losses with drops of
$1,3O4,75O and $759,7OO respec-
lively.
Sitka and Cordova showed the
greatest gain. SitkaS increase was
$521,800 and Cordova'S was $685.
$50.
Retail sales for Anchorage,
which has no sales tax, were not

shows that 19 municipalities in
the territory had per cent sales
tax last year. Pelican had a l
per cent sales tax.
Anchorage, Kodiak, Port Alex
ander and Unalaska had no sales
tax last year. Kodiak, however,
adopted a 2 per cent tax this
