Copper In Them Thar Hills?
Laidlaw, B.C., Sept. 1. Exploration work now in progress on the high slopes of the Cheam Range 15 miles south of Laidlaw in British Columbia's Fraser Valley may lead to the greatest copper discovery in Canada.
Seven diamond drillers and
engineers are working as a min- ing team close to the summit of Mount Foley. They are explor- ing what Heologists describe ns "Canda's Brat really important copper discovery since Noranda.” The team weke in almost complete isolation. Its only outside contact is a- Uny hellcop- | der, hired occasionally at a cost of $100 per hour.
Early reports by mining en gineers
there was at elained least a known body of surface ore of some 20XX0 tons, averag- lag a depth of 50 feet-which would assay 10 per cent and would be worth somewhere in the vicinity of $1,000.000,
$10 Million Worth
The project now under way near the mountain peak is de- signed to survey the depth to which the surface ore extends isto the mountain itself. Ac- cording 10 geologist's report on the area, if this small sec- tion of exposed ore should ex- tend to a depth of only 500 feet, It would produce about $10,000,000 worth of ore, Should
it extend further, it would earry untold wealth.

CHINA MAIL
RELEASE Of War CRIMINALS
Reds
May Have To Follow Allies' Lead
Washington, Sept. 2.
Diplomatic sources said today that releases of Japanese war criminals held by the Western allies would put new pressures on the Soviet Union and Communist China to free several thousand Japan- esc imprisoned there for war crimes.
These sources said the "more liberal approach" which the allies were taking concerning war crimes prisoners held under their jurisdiction in the Sugumo prison in Tokyo would probably strengthen the Japanese demands on the Communists in the current negotiations on prisoners.
Since August 31, the United States has released 22 of the 210 war criminals held under its jurisdiction In Japan, and the Netherlands has rejcased 19 of the 131 prisoners it holds.
Ometals said it was quite pos- sible that Britain would announce the release of some of the 80 prisoners under British control. Australia helis 140 war criminals.

The decision to release these war leaders would almost cer- tainly hasten freedom for the other lesser convicts.

She replied, "No,” to the question, after the objec- tion had been dealt with.
The accused are Ng Wai-leg, alias Ka Tsai, 20, unemployed; Ng Chun-chol, 21, unemployed, Chan Kwok-yau, 18, office boy, and Chow Kau, alias Yau Tsal allas Ah Kau, 26, car cleaner.
