Mining in British Columbia
Among the Canadian Previnces, British Columbia is the lead-
ing producer of Lead, Silver and Zinc.
In this Provinee about 45% of Canada’s Silver, 97% of the
Lead and 93% of the Zine are produced.
British Columbia has produced approximately $1,300,000,000
worth of minerals.
About 200,000 square miles of unexplored mineral-bearing
lands are open for prospecting. —
Practically every mineral known to be
found on the continent occurs to. some
extent in British Columbia. ‘

*The decrease in freight car
loadings which began in 1930 has
continued almost uninoterruptedly.
Tn 1931 up to the end of the first
week of December, 658,359 less
treigut cars had been loaded on all
Canadian Railways than for the
same period of the previous year.
During the same period of this
year 376,016 Jeas cars were loaded
than in 1931, The decline in pas-
senger business has been rela-
tively the same. The resultant ef-'
fect upon railway earnings -has
been naturally disastrous. For the
first ten months of 1931 Canadian
Pacific gross revenue declined
22.1 per cent. as compared with
that of 1930. For the first ten
months of this year now closing
there was a further decline of
15.4 per cenit. The decline con-
tinnes, and there certainly ap-
pears to be no evklence in sight

them entirely eliminated and our
earnings back where they were in
1928."—E. W. Beatty, K.C., Chatr-

was shipped by Canadian Pacific

‘via Canada,and was carried across
the Dominion on a special Can-
adian Pacific train, having abso-.
lute right-of-way. The train tray-
elled without lights and was pro-
tected by scores of armed guards.
