PENNSYLVANIA GRIN AND TSAR IT "I am amused at the news that I was burned in effigy in Penn sylvania—Why, that's not my stater Strategic Mineral Samples Featured in MI Display "Stragetic" became virtually a household word during the late unlamented war, and nowhere is the term used more appropriately than in reference to minerals. The School of Mineral Industries, among many other has set up in the MI building a case of samples of strategic in which the United States is•deficient. Quartz crystal, mined in a Brazil, rose sharply in demand in the war because of its use in mak ing radio oscillating equipment. Bolivia facilitates that famous American custom of "eating out of a tin can," since it is the source of most of the world's tin. "Tin" cans consist more of steel than of tin, a fact which enhances the value of manganese, an ingredient of steel. South Africa is a large producer of manganese. Those shiny aluminum pots and pans which the radio quizmasters give away to the thrilled ladies are made from bauxite, aluminum ore, much of which is imported from British Guiana. India supplies chromite, ore of chromium, while Italy sells us that heavy liquid, mercury. With inflation here, a nickel will not get you onto the New York subway, nor will it always buy you a shrunken, post-war candy bar; but for whatever it's worth, nickel is mined at Sud bury, Ontario. The American coin, of course, contains copper and other materials besides nickel. It may be significant some sort of providential invitation to international trade that ma terials necessary to a complex modern life are not concentrated in any single country.
