The discovery and development of { mining regions, however, even ¢ these must be exhausted in time, is often of the greatest importance to a ¢ ymmunity, and in the earlier stages of its development bring about the opening up and settlement of remote tracts of country, which subsequently develop other industries. Such a trans. formation has taken place in many parts of Canada, where the develop- ment of the mineral areas has fur- nished the incentive for the utiliza tion of the water-powers, the tone struction of railways and the estab- "| lishment of many permanent settle- ments. s-- es United States Would Round Out Naval Air Armament A despatch from Washington says:-->Steps to round out naval air armament to an extent which may revolutionize basic strategy have been announced by the Navy Department.
