Britain Has ~ Large Manganese Ore Resources

(Canadian Press.)

SYDNEY. 1N. S. Sept. 9.— Two papers were prepared by Sir Rob- ert liadiield, the listlugnished Eng. lish metaliurgist, for the meeting oi‘ the Empire llllning arid Metall- urgical Congress held at Sydney, N. S., on Sept, 9, but the author himself was unfortunately not able to come to Canada to attend the meetings. '

Sir Robert ‘is perhaps best known as the discoverer and inventor of manganese steel, Tile actual dis- covery dates from IBBZ/but it was

sic paper he communicated to the institution of Civil Engineers, Lon- lon‘, England. it is not too much to say that this discovery revo-lu- tionized the steel-making industry. and as a resillt manganese ore has becolne indispensable. Sir Robert showed tiiat the Bri~ tish Empire possesses large resour- ces ‘in such ores_-—lurger ill fact than those oi‘ any other country The deposits are mainly iil india and Africa (Gold Coast), produc- tion from which ill 1925 was re- spectively 710,000 ions and 339,000 tons of high-grade ore. Russia (Georgia) with 513,000 tons, and Brazil with 307,000 tons. are the other main sources of supply. iln Canada no large nlanganese-ore de’ posits are known, although some 40 l_ r e Ylfigiiilciiizlii tiilhgouivliaw Ilflxlllgeilglflalfl the liiuritilntl provinces. Sir Robert's first paper was ch- titled “Manganese, the Ores and the Metal with an Account of the llistory and Production of Fenro~ Niangunestu" 'i‘lle latter is a gell- cric term for the crude pig metal containing visually about 80 per cent. mungnilcstl and ii or 7 per cent. carbon. ill connection with tilis carboil Sir llloberi manic the ivery interesting statement iililt "ibis h curious unii innervating fact that had iiic author ilecn able, in the curly days oi‘ his exporinlc t- nl work, to obtain ilighgrailo fcrrtl. manganese as free i‘-roln carbon as it is now possible, he might ill all probability have missed making the discovery of manganese steeP-a discovery which ranks ill the some c-riiel‘ of inlporianclfils the discov- cry of the effect of quenching on carbon steel. Tile distinguished characteristic oi‘ this manganese steel-which normally contains 12 or l8 per cent manganeso- is that it is non-magnetic. lll his paper Sir Robert pays cloqueilt tribute to the famous French mctnllilrgisl, M.

New Australiaii-ltace

SYDNEY, N. S. -'W., Sept. il.—~ The gradual egolution of a new typc of people in the tropical northern parts of Australia is expected by one of this coilutrys most noted anth- ropologists, Dr. Herbert. Basedow.

Observing recentlyihat. the term “White Australia" had become 11 cherished doctrine, if not actual gos- pel’, Dr. Baedow said that he assum- ed the northern tropics would ulti- mately be settled with people of Anglo-Saxon, or_ Nordic strain. If that. were done, witiliii a generation or two, the skins oi‘ their descend- ants would so change that, to use a colloquialisni, their own fathers, would not know them.

A point that would have all im- portant bearing on the appearance of the future Northern Australians, said Dr. Basedow. was the fact that. the humidity of the tropics so di- lubed the atmosphere that, in order to introduce sufficient oxygen into the lungs to enable them to per- form their psychological functions, larger volumes of air would have to be inhaled. That would mean that. ultimately the Northern Australian would be o. man with n larger lung capacity than ills southern ‘relatives living in a more temperate cllme. Moreover, it would be necessary for the air to roach its destination by the quickest route, so that the ele- vated nose would be eventually re- placed by a comparatively flat. saddle-shaped nose with wide nos-i trlls. ,

"Hence," said.Dr. Bssedow, "We can visualize the ultimate white Australian of the tropics as an indi-. vidual with dark brown skin, dark hair, and features usually described as primitive."
