Vhile gold dominates the Alaska mining picture, the boost in the price of silver to 77.57 cents an ounce and the recommendation of a Congressional committee that $175,000 be appropriated yearly for three years to look into tin deposits in the States and the Territory gives added impetus to mineral development in the North. Though Alaska is not a noted producer of either silver or tin, records reveal that over the period of years between 1830 and 1933 the Territory pro- duced $1,259,641 worth of silver and from 1902 to 1933 a total of $1,096,000 in tin. Not impressive, but it does reveal the possibilities of mineral wealth that abounds here. The Hyder district probably posits and development work wa ried on there, until the white metal took such a decided slump, at an estimated cost of 50 cents an ounce.. Now with silver at 7757 cents and possibilities of it going even higher—the silver plea being for $1.29— there is every indication that operations could be carried on profitably. Silver-lead deposits have been worked cn a small scale in the Kantishna dictrict, ncrth cf the Alg Range, but cost of transportation proved prohibitive, especially when silver was selling from 56 to 35 cents as it did frem 1927 through 1933. In the Valley of West-Central Alaska, about nine east of Chulitna station on the Alaska Railroad, a unique deposit containing ruby si was found five or six years ago. Also in the Nixon Fork dist Kuskokwim region galena deposits that carry silver, lead and geld have been discovered. Of course, cilver is found constantly in gold ore and as its price goes upward silver naturally will tend toward giving further encouragement to gold mining. The principal area where tin lodes are known to be near Ycrk and Tin City on the Seward Peninsula. Since 1602 tin has been taken out of that district, the peak being reached in 1917 when $123,300 worth mined, but a survey probably will show paying possibilities in other sections of the Territory. With the United States dependent upen importation for tin, it appears to be a logical move on the part of Congress to consider develop- ment work along this line and if actually carried out will prove a boon to the North as well as con- in silver de- S0 Susitna miles is was tinental United States. Despite the fact that Alaska is famous as the land of gold, there are other untold mineral resources here as surveys of the past have shown. Higher price of silver undoubtedly will encourage endeavor along the line and if real effort is made to mine domestic tin there will be no difficulty in finding it in Alaska. The Geological Survey in its findings on tin deposits says: “Resumption of tin mining in Alaska, when conditions of world business improve, can be predicted with assurance.” That report is based on surveys over the last 30 years and clearly reveals the fact that there is abundance of tin Silver and tin mining may not beccme our great- est industry but rising prices and development can make the two of inestimable benefit to the Terri- ct of the ° tory, thus the silver jump and proposed tin survey comes as welcome and invigorating news to Alaskans. Senator Neely of West Virginia reads the comics while his colleagues try to disentangle themselves from legislative snarls. A chap by the name of Roosevelt seems to be able to read those Senate comics about as good as any of them, it strikes us. We'll pro.ably be seeing a new Mae West picture pretty They're digging up stories about her, the latest being something about a marriage in Milwaukee. soon. Another sure sign that spring is here is when Congre to talk about adjournment begins Stres (New York Herald Tribune.) The distant observer may find it hard to detect in the communique announcing the decisions of the Stresa conference those prodigies of success, soli- darity and pacification proclaimed by the statesmen who took part. Mr. MacDonald is “glad that the conference ended so successfully”; M. Laval feels that “we have maintained peace with much sac- rifice,” and the Duce is emphatic that “the vigor- ous, watchful, active solidarity of the three powers is such as to secure the tranquility of Europe.” Yet if one examines the communique one finds severe strictures upon German rearmament coupled with no very clear indication that anything is to be done about it; a rededication to the various projects— from the Locarno guaranties to the Eastern security pact—which have been going the rounds for months, yet nothing definite as to how any are to be im- plemented—and very little else. The British are painfully anxious to make it clear that they have accepted no new ‘“commitments.” Russia is not mentioned. There is the greatest vagueness upon the question of how France proposes to reconcile her obligations to the Little Entente with her ap- parent yielding to the Italian desire to permit Austria and Hungarian rearmament. Particularly, there is no solution for the deepest dilemma of all-how a harsh rejection of the Ger- man claim to military equality can be combined with a new system still theoretically based upon freewill German participation. If Stresa seems, however, to have settled all its detailed problems by the old method of postponing them, it still leaves a strong impression that something has actually been accomplished. It appears to have gone far toward building a practicable bridge over which Europe ‘may pass from the old Versailles stem, based upon German impotence, to a new system frankly recognizing Germany’s return to the status of an armed and equal great power This bridge is a new military solidarity among the former Entente powers. If it has not, after all, been enshrined in written treaties of alliance, it may be no less adequate to its purpose, which is to make all the non-German great powers at least cure enough of each other's support to permit lem to adjust their policies to the new situation ithout rt to panic or preventive war. It seem- ed doubtful that, without more definite commitment from Great Britain or clearer definition of Franco- Italian r such a dge could be built strong to carry it is because .xk three powers realize that, the t. If Stresz has enough done so, regardless, ¢f commitments, eally joint action would be, le course for each should an actual war danger arise. Thus one may hope that Stresa will actually to eliminate any immediate war danger. It y has not solved the European problem. But 1( it Aulg\-u er with the elaborate negotiations which led up to it) has provided a means for making the dangerous transition from the old system to the now inevitable new one, it has done much, even though it bequeaths to the future the inordinately difficult task of conducting that new system, of which a powerful and incalcuable Germany will be an establisned and permanent element. Sea Travel. (Tacoma Ledger.) The current winter-spring season has been mark- ed by an increased volume of travel at sea, accord- |" ing to the monthly survey published by the Amer- ican Express Company, but there is more ahead. April cruises along South American routes this year exceed those of last April by 20 per cent. The trans-Atlantic and Mediterranean services have an increase of 28 and 30 per cent. Sixty-eight an- nounced cruise tours during the month of April to the Caribbean, West Indies, Gulf of Mexico - and South America were so popular that 23 more sail- ings were soon added, making a total of 12 more than the number of such trips last April. Sailing to the Pacific Coast, to the Far East, to the South Seas and to Alaska are also more popular than ever. We may be all at sea in some of our land affairs, but large numbers of us still have the wherewithal, the time and the inclination.to go to sea for pleasure, health and stimulating change ‘of scene.
