In his paper on the hydraulic mining of a low-grade gravel in California,* Mr. W. H. Radford expresses the hope that other members of the Institute will contribute, for the benefit of all, their experience in similar lines. In these notes 1 shall describe the conditions and results of the operation of the Gold Bug Mining Co., of Cleveland, O., at Georgetown, Eldorado county, Cal.

The gravimetric determination of titanium in irons and steels is extremely difficult. It may be well, therefore, to call the attention of those members of the Institute who are interested in the chemistry of iron to a colorimetric! method, which I have slightly elaborated to adapt it to the case under consideration. Schön * discovered that hydrogen peroxide produces, in certain solutions of titanic acid, a very intense color similar to that of ferric

Foreman remains key man in any safety program, as men attracted to the industry must be trained in safety thinking. Diesel engines underground aid safety and widespread use of roof bolting is reflected in reduction of roof-fall fatalities.

FACED with processing an increasing volume of raw material through its existing plant, early in 1955 Calaveras Cement Co. of California considered incorporating liquid cyclones in its raw mill grinding circuits. One of many problems was the prospect of handling larger volumes of finished slurry through existing pipelines. Fixed capacities of the mechanical classifiers also placed limits on plant expansion.

AS it is commonly understood in the bituminous coal mining industry, pillaring means removal, as completely as is practical, of all pillars formed in the development of headings and rooms on first mining. The degree to which this can be accomplished, termed percent of recovery, is of course dependent generally upon the physical conditions of the bottom and the overburden, the system of min-

During 1938, oil activities in the Argentine Republic showed a favorable balance due to the increase in crude-oil production, the incorpora- tion of new producing areas and the discovery of deeper productive horizons. Drilling was as follows:

The Glenharold mine is a multiple seam dragline operation where many different stripping methods are employed. This paper describes the production operations of over-burden removal, coal loading, and haulage. Emphasis is placed on the methods used to uncover fie seam using draglines, scrapers, and a small shovel.

J. W. RICHARDS, South Bethlehem, Pa.-I think that the diagrammatic results can be much more clearly set forth if they are plotted as follows: The present diagram, shown on page 1227 of Mr. Jeffries' paper, Logarithm of Per cent of Maximum Wattage Used plots the variation of wattage with temperature in a very inconvenient and uncertain-way. If, however, you plot as abscissas the logarithms of the wattage, you get very nearly a straight line, so that you can interpolate the values with much greater accuracy than you can by using

In the late 1960s the mining industry was in an apparent slump due to a combination of factors. Enrollment dropped significantly at schools offering mining engineering degrees, resulting in a shortage today of experienced mining graduates to staff middle management positions. How has this limited supply affected salaries? Does the shortage impair the mining industry's ability to respond to national energy needs?

I have been asked to speak to you on the subject of "Scrap Metals from the Army." With your kind permission I'd like to change this subject to "Scrap Metals from Ordnance," as the Property and Salvage Section, which I head, is a part of the Office, Chief of Ordnance, and only handles Scrap, Cuttings and By-products produced by Ordnance establishments. Scrap, Cuttings and By-prod-
