Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mineral Resources of Armenia and Anatolia
Flourishing industries therefore, are perforce subordinate to the existence of order and peace. Fortunately, there is reason to believe that the nation who will kindly lead us will intend to carry out a broad-minded policy to favor the expansion of min ing and its allied industries in our own country. With the adop tion of such a course many interesting features of technical practice in these territories will doubtless be revealed within the next decade or so. Most mining engineers are familiar with the admirable results obtained in Mexico, within a com paratively short period of time, nor is the result of push and energy in our own country less strikng.
Comparisons are instructive, at times, and it was futile to: belittle the importance of granting due recognition to modern industrial tendencies as exhibited in the practice of the more advanced nations. A study of these features and the causes conductive thereto, may advantageously shape the policy to be adopted by those upon whom the responsibility of developing the country'smatural resources has been thrust.
