The New Springing The mining frontiers are being pushâ€" ed out far to the north. Some of the most striking successes of the year have Mining is Canada‘s third largest inâ€" dustry, being exceeded only by manuâ€" racpuring and agricultural production. Canadian metals and minerals are largely exported. The inflow of foreign money from these sales has admittedly a strong influence on the national fiscal pcosition. By the end of the year, The Northâ€" ern Miner review says, Canada will have 141 gold mills in operation; this compares with 30 plants in 1931. The advarce is unparalleled in any country with the possible exception of Russia. There are at least eight new mills proâ€" posed at this writing and the number may be augmented before year end. This country now produces 18 metals, four fuels and 20 nonâ€"metallic minerals, exclusive of structural materials. Canaâ€" da now supplies the world with 85 per cent. of its nickel requirements, 47 perâ€" cent. of its platinum; 25 per cent. of bismuth and cobalt; over 10 per cent. of its copper and lead; nine per cent. of its zinc and 11 per cent. of its silver. Canada‘s ranking amongst world proâ€" ducers of metals is striking for a naâ€" tion of eleven million people, it is pointâ€" ed out. The per capita output is higher than that of any other courtry. It stands first in world production in nickel and platnum metals; second place in radium, bismuth and cadâ€" mium; third place in copper, zinc and cobalt; fourth place in gold, silver and lead. Immense advances have been made all along the mineral front in this country. Gold, nickel, copper, zinc, platinum, asbestos, aluminum, oil and structural materials output are at levels not previously attained. Other materials and minerals have shown material gains from the low points of 193%. is in the happy position of being able to report a record production, which should approximate a value of $415,000,â€" 0C0 for the year. The figure compares with $361,000,000 in 1936â€"which was an all time high.

Silent Zone Mounting In the 1938 cars, McLaughlinâ€"Buick engineers have made it impossible for the body to act as a "sounding board" for road and chassis vibrations by deâ€" veloping ‘"silent zone" body mounting. Through study and determination of both low and high points of road inâ€" duced chassis vibration, "drumming" sounds in the body are eliminated by special methods of securing the body to the frame at points of least vibraâ€" tion, and the use of special insulation at other points. As a result, body bolts are located at the centre of the rear cross member and on the side rails adjacent to the dash, three zones free from vibration, with additional body bolts well insulated at the body brackâ€" ets on the side rails. Lubrication of the rear suspension is unnecessary, with the result that eight points for lubricating the car have been eliminated. dian upm y, to the executive staff on the occasion o g pointments of R.

This fine balance also contributes toward the reduction of body roil and side sway. w# where the front wheels lead. On sharp turns or gravelled roads there is pracâ€" tically no skidding and on icy and wet surfaces there is a greater margin of safety before skidding can occur. The new rear coil springing likewise has reâ€" suited in a substantial reduction in unâ€" sprung weight, contributing greatly to riding comfort and eliminating the chatter of rear wheels on the road when brakes are applied suddenly. l Bouncing and pitching of passengers Toronto Telegram:â€"Japanese banker says Japan must try to attract foreign capital to develop China.
