For such minerals there may be reasons other than that of necessity for aiding or restricting this movement. 3. Minerals Should be Concentrated, Smelted, or Fabricated Near Source of Supply, With Limitations In the interest of reduction of bulk and efficiency of transport- ation, the concentration, refining and fabrication of minerals near sources of supply should be encouraged wherever conditions permit. Countries fortunate enough to possess large supplies of a needed mineral, deficient elsewhere in the world, are entitled to the ad- vantages that may come from conversion. and fabrication of raw materials, unless local conditions make this possible only at ex- cessive cost.
