Canadian activity and financesâ€"that is, apart from the big cperatorsâ€"are dissipated over a great varisty of preperties, good and bad. The Soviet system is consentration of activity. * Canadian From the Canadian angle, the chief point which sticks out cf the asove figâ€" ures a. the mcement is the sugsze>sticn thas Russia knows a lot more avout god@ mining than Canada. The speod with whicsh Russi‘a cvertcck Canadian ‘g0ld production makes it like a twoâ€"way raze, with Russia movinx ftorâ€" wardâ€"and Carada going Backwarda. . Why? We know a lot about Canada‘s demccratic system of gold producticn. We have read ssocmething absut Rusâ€" sian methods; and, making no allowâ€" ance for the fact that propaganda may be a big hand in the gold game, the system seems to be that the Soviet herds up large gangs of workers, sends them into gold areas, anmnti tells th>m to woerk while the government provides the concentrated dirertion cof their azâ€" tivities. A chart published by. the Ontaric Deâ€" partment of Mines a year or ago showed that, while Russia was an eariy aatibler in gold preducticn, its cuiput Lell to practically zero in 1920. At tnat time, Canadian producticn was about 75¢,003 ounzes. So takirg 1920 as the startingz point, the gold race has gone semething like this, according to the government chart: In 1925 Russia, 5G0;000 curces; Canada 1,750,000 cunces. In 1930, Russia 1,300.000 ocunces; Canaâ€" da 2,100,0090 cunces. In 1935, Russia 8,5C0,00C jounces; ‘Canada 3,100,000 ountes. The gueswork for 19377â€"not asâ€" tributed to the governmen{tâ€"is: Russia 14,310,000 Canada 3.500,000 cunsges. The forgign editor, mentioned above, goes on to poirt cut that Russia has becoeme the dark horse in the worid‘s goid race, that Russian reserves $7,000,000,00€, compared with American gold holdings cf $11,500,000,000 ard that, as a result of ‘being able to. purchase war supplies for gold, the Soviet is in an ideal position to take the hides off Messrs. Hitler and Mussclini if they ever force a real shcowdowr. Sovict officials are said to be consigering ths question of granting to the foreign editor of "Business Week" the priviege of viewing the huge gold resgrves. since they are both supposed to ue fairly well cleaned cof their gold, it might not be a bad move if they coulid be convicned that gold is more infborâ€" tant in waffare thar At least, cver" the. long run.
