Two prominent Alaskans have
been elected to the board of dir

Dunn, Pan American district traf
fic manager at Juneau, now rep
resent substantial Alaskan inter
ests in the tin company.
Mr. Walsh has been identified
with mining on the Seward Penin- !

Walsh came to the booming gold
camp on Norton Sound. He was
married in Nome and has raised
10 children, most of them living
in the territory.
Walsh served in the territorial
legislature, is a past president of
Igloo No. 1, Pioneers of Alaska,
was on the territorial school borard
and is presently a regent of the
University of Alaska.
According to Kadow, “The dir
ectors of the U. S. Tin Corporation
are greatly pleased to have Mr.
1 Michael J. Walsh join the board.
His advice and counsel on mining
matters in the Second Division
will be most valuable to the suc
cessful operation of our company.’’
“The executives of the U.S. Tin
Corporation also express their ap
preciation of Mr. B. Fred Dunn of
Juneau to a place on the board
of directors. Since air transporta
tion is the lifeline of our mining
operations, Mr. Dunn’s knowledge
of air operations is expected to
be most valuable to the company,”
Mr. Kadow said.

ment of the property by private
engineers and the U. S. Bureau
of Mines has established that at
least 4,151,000 measured and in
dicated tons of ore containing 28,
000,000 pounds of tin and 5,000,000
pounds of tungsten are ^available
for mining.
A new 100-ton mill has been
erected on the property under the
supervision of Mining Engineer
Paul M. Sorenson, who is in
charge of operations at Lost River.
Milling will start almost at once.
The daily output of the mill is
! expected to be about two tons
of concentrate per day. consisting
of an estimated 65% metal.
Officers of the corporation are
Kenneth J. Kadow, of Juneau,
president; Fred Furey, Seattle,
vice president; Robert McIntosh,
who has mined on the Seward
Peninsula for 40 years and is now
living in Seattle, vice president;
Fred Loomis, Seattle, treasurer;
and R. “Scotty” Gibbon, secre

The U.S. Tin Corp. is in a most
unique position in the nation’s

deposit of lode tin under the Am
erican flag is on the Seward Pen
insula and the federal government
has designated mining operations
there as vital to the defense effort
of the nation.

Mines Phil R. Holdsworth recent
ly visited the U.S. Tin Corp. prop
erty at Lost River and is very
enthusiastic about the future of
this operation as well as the fu
ture for tin throughout the Sew
ard Peninsula.
Both territorial and federal
mining agencies are planning fur
ther exploration work through
out the area.

ment of Mines will receive bids for the
