And lacking the knowâ€" dledge, they as a result lack the fai‘hn in the merits, which are more obvious as the years go by. Unforâ€" tunately many of our citizens who do know and believe our ccuntry‘s wealth, are unable to demonstrate financiaily their knowledge and faith, because of circumstances; these, because of cheir circumstances are forced to miss sharâ€" ing in the hundreds of millions of do!â€" lars that our mines are colloctively producinz annually.
