: NOT IN ACCORD
WITH BOLOVIA’S
POLICIES, QUITS
BUENOS AIRES, July 7 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The recent resigna
tion of the Bolivan minister to Bra
i nil, Jose Carrasco because he was not
in accord with the government’s as
pirations for a port on the Pacific
has caused much comment in South
American newspapers and revived dis
cussion of the Tacna and Arica case.
The newspapers here publish a re
sume of Senor Carrasco’s letter of.
resignation to his government in
which he tells why he cannot fulfill
his instructions to work in favor of
obtaining for Boliva, through action
of the League of Nations, a port in
the Arica zone, whose ownership is
disputed by Chile and Peru.
The Bolivan diplomat, formerly
vice president of his country, makes
an analysis of historical facts which
go to show, he says, that Arica be
longs to Peru and that Boliva has
recognized this in various treaties
some of which “were sealed by the
blood of Peruvians and Bolivans in
combats never to be forgotten.”
Boliva, he declared, had neverthe
less, “followed the politics of Chile,”
has now mingled in the Tacna and
Arica dispute and “compromised her
interests in irremedial form.”
The minister opposes an alliance
with Chile of this sort. He adds that
the territory desired by Boliva is
foreign territory and that he cannot
conceive of the League of Nations
"disposing of the territories of the
continent on motives of geographical
necessity.”
American nations judge that Boliva
has a right to demand an outlet to
the sea, but it is from Chile that
she should demand this port—one of
the ports wrhich she took from Boliva
in the past, not a port which belongs
to Peru, the minister asserts.
Chilean and Peruvian newspapers
have entered into a sharp controversy
over the merits of his argument.
PUBLICITY WORK OF
PORTLAND IN ORIENT
SHANGHAI, July 8 (by Associated
Press).—Portland, Ore., probably is
the first city in the world to send
* abroad a publicity agent to advertise
its advantages as a commercial center
and J. F. Buckley, who is Oriental
traffic agent of the Port of Portland,
certainly is the first city representa
tive of this kind to come to China.
In Shanghai he has set in motion a
campaign of publicity to acquaint
shippers throughout China with the
extensive port improvements that
have been and are to be carried out
by the Rose City.

FROM ALASKA
IS FEATURED
Among the leading features of the
mining congress held recently in
Seattle was an exhibit of gold and
precious metals from the Alaska Bu
reau of the Seattle chamber of com
merce. Gold ores from $1.20 to the
ton rock carrying as $600 to the ton
were shown. Among the delegates,
1500 in number, were some of the
leading mining men of the nation, to
whom an appeal was made to fight for
legislation which will free the north
ern territory from the restrictive leg
islation which is holding back the
proper development of its unrivalled
resources. In the exhibit were gold
ores from the Treadwell, Chichagof,
Port Wells, Willow Creek and Fair
banks districts; copper from the fam
ous Kennecott, Latouche, Ellamar,
Russian, Brown and other noted mines
in the Ketchikan, Prince William
Sound and other copper regions. Lode
and placer tin ores were also shown,
with the rich platinum, molybdenum,
magnetite, hematite, and chrome iron
ores from the southeast sections of
Alaska, Throne peninsula and the
Keene islands; tungsten from the
Fairbanks section; graphite from the
Seward peninsula, cinnebar, gypsum
and marble. The exhibit attracted
a large amount of careful attention
from delegates and visitors. In ad
dition to this valuable exhibit, the
chamber of commerce displayed a
chart placing the valuation of miner
al products up to and including the
year 1919 at $437,436,930 as follows:
Gold, $311,238,961; copper, $114,243,
033; silver, $6,248,255; tin, $842,657;
tungsten, $85,420; coal, $1,471,150;
platinum, palladium, marble, gypsum,
petroleum, etc., $2,569,861. Total,
A’aska commerce for 1919 showed
shipments from Alaska of $42,476,018
and the shipments into the territory
were valued at $29,296,869. Although
Alaskan development js ret even in its
infancy due to the conservation policy
of '>906, an idea of the tremendous
wealth of the territory is gained from
the figures showing the value of
Alaska’s products for the year 1919,
as follows:
Minerals: Gold, $9,000,000; copper,
$8,500,0000; silver, $650,000; tin, $50,
000; lead, $100,000; coal, $350,000;
platinum, marble, gypsum, petroleum,
etc., $200,000; total, $52,031,238. Fish
products: Salmon, $47,180,139; hali
but, $1,600,000; cod, $850,000; herr
ing, $891,299; clams and crabs, $145,
000, total $18,500,000; furs and skins,
$5,176,537, miscellaneous, $249,211.
Grand total, $75,306,988.
