Capital in Mine Projects. By Radio to The Star, JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, Oc- tober 7.—The proposal to amalgamate Southern Rhodesia and Northern Rho- desia under dominion status has impor- tant significance for America, as it the direct control of Downing street and provide fresh opportunities for Ameri- can capital and development. American experts are watching the situation closely, with their eyes direct- ed particularly toward the copper fields, where much American money already is invested. Nakana starts production next year and most of the other mines will reach the production stage at a time when the existing sources in other parts of the world will be petering out. At present non-British enterprise is unwelcome, but_self-government would | certainly open the doors much wider.
