Well, there's lots of it | waiting for you—$100,000,000 that Congress has appropriated to buy essential war minerals. It's not gold, now. Prospectors these days are looking for such metals as manganese, tungsten, chromium, tin. For, de- spite Uncle Sam’s natural wealth, the Geological Survey lists more than two dozen minerals in which he is deficient. ; The major activity is by mining companies, but -the romantic fig- ure is the lone prospector, who starts on a shoestring. Typical of these old timers is Charles Dorsey, who has made and lost two substantial stakes in i gold mining. “The west is the only place for the small prospector,” said Dor- sey, here to outfit before return- ing to Battle Mountain, Nev. “Practically all of the land in the east is privately owned. Out here there’s plenty of government domain and it belongs to anybody who'll stake a claim, “Of course, the going is tough. That's why it's still public do- main. But there's rich mineral there, and a lot of it is just what the government's needing.” - ->oo Subscribe to Tne Daily Alaska Enipire—the paper with the largex paid circulation, e — Empire cusvifieds pring results. azis Honor France’s ‘Soldier’ 4 } HAD THE PORTER CHECK | IT_AND PUT IT IN WITH THE TRUNKS N THE BAGGAGE CAR- YOU WON'T NEED IT-| ANYWAY ~ YES - BUT-1 CANIT FIND MY GRIP - IT WUZ IN ME ROOM A MINUTE AGO THIS CORNED BEEF AN’ CABBAGE WILL TASTE GOOD WHEN t GET_ON THE TRAN -NOW FOR A I THINK I'LL HAVE A SQUARE BUCKET MADE SO 1T WILL.
