Germany CMies Purchases. In' 1922 the Kiruna field used to sehd three shiploads of ore daily to the Norwegian port of Narvig. At the present time there is scarcely a shipload a week.

Germany formerly took the greater part of this ore. She has the furnaces to handle but her purchases have ceased since the flurry in the Ruhr. and France have no furnaces suitable the reduction of the Swedish ore. The Bethlehem Steel company has furnaces which are capable of using this ore, and some or it goes to America. Sweden exported nearly 6,500,000 metric tons of iron ore In 1922, and over 80 per cent, or this went to As early as 1913 Oermany bought Over tons of.

Swedish iron ore for the Ruin furnaces. I Tho railway which runs from Lulea, on the Gulf of Bothnia, to Narvib, north of the Arctic Circle In Norway, lives on the ore traffic. It hauls export ore from Kiruna to Narvig, and from Gellivare and other mines further south to Lulea. But the latter port freezes, and in midwinter the export ore reaches tidewater entirely through the Norwegian port, Narvik. i Cities of 10,000 Grow About SaUroad.

'Great Britain has about 1,000,000 tons of iron ore stored tit Marvic in addition there are about 1,00,000 tons more which belong to various commercial organizations. This accumulated before the armistice. Great Britain bought her part to keep it from going to Germany, but he British furnaces cannot use it, and appa ently it has been impossible to find markets elsewhere. Spain and Morocco yield an abundance of ore which is adapted to British and French furnaces as they now equipped. If German furnaces do not speedily come into the market again for the Swedish ores, and it Great Britain does not alter its steel industry, to handle Swedish ore, the otrtlook for the Swedish iron mines is far from promising.
