"Arabian Adventure," by Douglas Carruthers, does not deal directly with the Arabâ€"Jew problem but does give an extraordinarily fine idea of what sort of people the Arabs have become. Second only to "Lawrence of Arabia," this young Englishman lived among the Arabs and had adventures which, like "Lawrence‘s" seem almost impossible. His stories are well corroborated. In "Senor Burky" the reader will find as thrilling and in spots as amusâ€" ing an autobiography as O. Henry himâ€" self might have written for one of his Central American banana republic generals. William P. Burke was apâ€" prenticed at 13 to a farmer in the wilds of Australia, eventually got to London, then to Iquitos on the Amazon. Folâ€" lowing a career aboard Brazilian river steamers, he joined the Peruvian navy. From an important post there he rose to be inspectorâ€"general of sanitation in the Dominican republic. New Ssmuts Biography In contrast to this volume is "Genâ€" eral Smuts," a biography by Sarah Gertrude Millin. Lawyer, gengral, statesman, philosopher, idealist, man of action and above all a great leader, Jan Christian Smuts has had a career as great as any man of the century. The general‘s personal susceptibilitiee have not been spared.

NC I of Mining Produces Million per Day in New Wealth Payments in Labour and Supplies Exceeded $180,000,000 in 1935.. Over 80,000 Workers Employed Directly Last Year. Summary by Hon. T. A.

It should be read a1r Jon. : "Lt‘_ by all fo In the first place, an industry that produces $1,000,000 in new wealth each working day is unquestionably of very great value. The payments in labout and supplies, which prosably totalled cver $180,000,000 in 1935, suggests its value to domestic‘ trade generally through the huge markets provided for the products of Canadian farms and factories.

Nevertheless thi terrItOry is reaily AaAdaptlaDnis to the putrâ€" suit Oof agriculture. Nevertheless this more or less settled part made the Dominion one of the world‘s leading agricultural countries and the word "wheat"‘ synonymous with Canada in the markets of the world since the beâ€" ginning of the century. But what of the remaining 85 per cent. of this vast half continent? Large areas of it are forested ang have proâ€" vided revenue from lumber, pulpwood, and furs. But this revenue declined under the severe competition of foreign countries.

The murder seemed a but clever work by the police from the slender clue of a piece of upholsterer‘s twine led to the arrest of John Fiorenza, 24 years old and an exâ€"convict. He is said to have confessed. He is quoted as saying that he called at the house early in the morning, committed the crimes, and then returned with another uphoisterer to do some work for the house.

From 1929 to 1983 the tonnag« acks *o{ revenue freight declined 50 pezy cent PV Dominion rests almost entirely upon the mineral wealth it is made to yield. The scouts of the great mining army are already abroad and each year they bring back information that prompts renewed efforts on ahe part of capital to transform the wildernpss into a possession of national importance. I must emphasize this factor of capiâ€" tal. Few laymen are aware of the vast/ sums of money requireqg to develop mines. The great deposit of the Flin Flon mine in Manitoba required an expenditure of $30,000,000 before there was any return on this large investâ€" ment. The mine at Noranda in Queâ€" bec required $25,000,000 to enable it to produce the refined metals in the large quantity it now does. The average gold mine take from $1,000,000 to. $3,000,.â€" 000 to develop and equip it to the stage of production. Much money must be risked in the early stages of developâ€" ment as there is no positive assurance of success. Courageous capital is thus an essential to new mining enterprise. But the rewards, national and perâ€" sonal, are great, The discovery of a gold showing in the Porcupine area in 1909 has resulted in the production to date of $420,000,000 in new wealth and in the emergence of the prospsrous town of Timmins. The discovery of golq in Kirkland Lake gave birth to the present community of 15,000 people and to new wealth that has now reachâ€" ed $235,000,000. And the end of the production in these areas is not in sight and will not be for many years. Canadians may take heart in a study of the country‘s mining history. It is a series of chapters of expanding minâ€" @ral production. In 1886 the value of the output was $10,200,000.. Ten years later this amount had doubled, and the following decade saw the new figure multiplied two and half times. The value had reached $221,500,000 in 1933 and $310,000,000 in 1935. That it will reach half a billion dollars within the next ten years, it is reasonable to exâ€" pect. An industry which promises such a future must not be neglected; must assuredly not be a young country whose prosperity varies in no uncertain manâ€" ner according to the extent of her exâ€" port trade. A <sreview of the industry cannot ignore the significant fact that Canada exports more than 90 per eent. of its total output of metals. The major item is gold, with nickel and copper next in order. In 1935 the combineg producâ€" tion of nickel, copper, lead, and zinc was valued in excess of $88,000,000. Thic cutput of 609,000 tons was not only 13‘% tim«s that of 1900 but 21 per cent. above that of 1930. Of the base metals namâ€" ed 92 per cent, of the production was exported. Gold has a nonâ€"compctitive world Gold has a nonâ€"compctitive world market, and nickel from Canadian ores largely monopolizes the num@rous inâ€" dustrial markets for that base metal. The annual exports of primary metallic mineral products alone now realize cnough to meet almost twoâ€"thirds of the yearly interest and dividend payâ€" ments on all Canadian securitiss heid avroad. Mining, then, is a vital factor in Canadian national life. In 1934 there was an dncrtase ol nearly 20 per cent.., of which over oneâ€"half was attributed to mineral products. Mines in or near production, apart altogether from the heavy aggregate expenditures of many prospectors and syndicates, palid a $12,000,000 freight bill in 1934 anq no doubt much more than this in 1935 because of the increased deliveries (Continued on Paze Thrce) DL PAAA A AP L D 4* tA o+ P probl th
