SUGGESTIONS Francisco Chamber of Commerce has taken stands number of matters regarding mining which should be of interest to all mining communities affected adversely as a result of war closures of non-essential mines. Four resolutions have been passed advocating the following Enactment of Federal legislation providing for the establishment and maintenance of metals and minerals stockpiles during and after World War II. 3 The use and free exchange of gold as a monetary standard in any international currency stabilization plan having the participation of the United States Amendment of the War Production Board's order L-208 which closed the gold mines, so that the mining companies may operate sufficiently to cover their out-of-pocket overhead and maintenance expenses during the war period. Provision of secured loans by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to tide gold mining companies through the war period to permit the resumption of operations later. According to the San Francisco Chamber, during the early months of this year, gold production in The San on a California averaged about $446,000 a month, and the |conference when all these suspicions and misunder- | decline is continuing. Production of gold in 1942 was more than $29,000,000; in 1941, more than $49,000,000, and in 1940, more than $51,000,000.

Roosevelt, came into the presidential office. The event was hailed in many national capitals as a move that might hold back the gathering clouds of war It was in November, 1917, that the Bolshevists overthrew the Kerensky Interim Government in Russia and established a dictatorship.

This country’s conservatives from the first thought the new gov-} ernment an upstart regime that had little chance for permanency or success. History proved them wrong The end of the first decade of new diplomatic relations between the United States and Russia finds the world again acclaiming an agreement to which th two nations are parties as important in the peace hopes of the world. The agreement is the recent four-power declaration participated in in Mos- cow by representatives of the United States, Great Britain, Russia and China. Tbhe declaration calls for the four to carry on the war until their enemies have surrendered unconditionally and then to stand together to keep the world at peace There were periods in that decade when relations between Russia and the United States were strained One was when Russia went to war against Finland. | Another was when Russia reached an agreement with Adolf Hitler that apparently freed the Nazi leader to carry on his war against the democracies without fear of interference by Russia. However, the threat of the powerful Russian bear poised on his borders drove the power-hungry and distrustful Nazi chief to invade Russia June 22, 1941. Britain was quick to welcome Russia as a partner against the Na: Even though they were on the same side there still was a lack of complete understanding between Ruyssia and the democracies, a lack highlighted by the second-front issue | The enemies of the United Nations tried hard to | capitalize on this misunderstanding, tried to keep alive ‘ the distrust that two widely divergent political ideolo- gies had built up.
