"The quantity supplied by the Americans in that year was 1,110,000 tons, whereas we sent only 117,000 tons to the Domin- ion. Why have we failed to meet American competition?

In thc case of steel made in the West of Scot- land, South Wales, or the Mlddles- brough district, where the works are nearer shipping ports, and in some cases much nearer iron ore mines. than are works in the Sheffield area, the inclusive inland transport costs are obviously considerably lower. IBut Sheflleld and other inland steel makers can meet American compet- tlon in Canada if they try. ' "To the $6 per ton, or less, here calculated as the inland transport cost carried by a ion of our steel up to the ship's side, there has to be ‘added the freight to Canada.

April 2a (o. P.)—A modest landsman in a small pm- vincisl town in western Human]; possesses the country's largest for. tune, about $6.000,000,-most of it in bar gold.

Monk Frugal The Monk Mlhall took his frugal living from the meager land of the cloister, and converted thc entire income from the estate into gold. I-le never spent a penny for his personal needs. In the course of years, he a- massed millions in bar gold,. most of 1t deposited with the Credit Lyonn- ais. l-fe left it all to Dinu when he died. Dinu leaves it as he received it. -in gold. His wants are simple and he receives enough from the income of the estate, now somewhat cilrtall- ed by the new land laws, to give him ' his living. The gold has withstood the finali- tunes in recent years. and, although it is unproductive. Dlnu is content to. leave it deposited abroad, where he knows it is safe even if it ls not earning anything-six million dol- lars of it! Banker Next. The family Bcrcovitz, headed by the banker -Eli Bcrcovitz, perhaps come next to Mlhail.
