Access roads have been prepared into the area, camp sites and other facilities were revamped. The project has been sampled and mapped by various geologists since 1958, Erickson said, and a 250 ton per day mill had been partially installed.

When do you think it will get bade to that point? Name withheld. Sir: The next bull market could be very dynamic and carry through 1,000 like Grant took Richmond. But to answer when, is to speculate. The market hit an all time high in the great bull market of the late 20s when in 1929 it hit 381. Then the collapse. It took 25 years to regain the lost ground. In 1954 it finally went over 381. Deear Dear Mr. Blackburn: I thought your readers would be interested in the following statement that I came across in the first report I received from Chemical Fund: In these uncertain times there is need to protect capital against the threats of political unrest, labor disturbance, war and inflation. The report, by the way, is dated October IS, 1938. So really nothing ever changes. Paul Payne. , Dear Mr. Payne: Thats a great one! But can you outdo this one: Our earth is degenerate in these latter days; bribery and corruption are common; children no longer obey their parents; every man wants to write a book, and the end of the world is evidently approaching. This quotation is taken from an inscription on an ancient Assyrian tablet by an unknown philosopher some 3000 years ago. Dear Mr. Blackburn: What about the penny market? Is it time to jump in? W. R. B. Dear Sir: "For the investor in penny stocks, it is still too early to throw caution to the winds. Low priced issues will continue to decline even after the stock market resumes its upward trend.

Considering what isrecoverable with available technology, the council said the oil figure is about 14.1 billion barrels. The number and size of the field which may contain these projected reserves are extremely conjectural, the report said. The presence of one or more giant accumulations is possible. Practically speaking, most of the potential will likely be found in many small to medium-size- d accumulations in the area's vast sedimentary rock formations, the council said. One reason the potential so far outstrips what has been proihiced in those states so far is that the drilling has been ' relatively shallow and widely scatted, the report said.
