SALT LAKE ROUTE BLOCKED
Meadow Valley Wash Carries Away
Over 1000 Feet of Track

The Salt Lake Herald Republican
January 2: Washonts along the treach-
erous Meadow Valley wash on the line
between Acoma. Utah, and Caliente,
Nevada, have agaiu tied up traffic on
the Salt Lake Route. uecessitating the
reconstruction of nearly one-q quarter Of
a mile Of road bed and two bridges near
the Utah. Nevada State line. 1t will
take several days. possibly two weeks,
to repair the damage temporarily, and
in the meantime it is likely that passen-
gers for Los Angeles will all be routed
by way of the Southern Pacific. The
Salt Lake Route has all the available
men at its command working on the
damaged part of the road, and every
effort is being made to facilitate the re.
pairs.
The washouts occurred at points near
Acoma, Minto and Caliente, in the same
district where the first disastrous
floods in the experience of the road oc-
cnrred nearly three years ago. Fret
information of the trouble came to the
general offices of the Salt Lake Route
late Friday night. and r. e. Wells. gen.
eral manager of the road. who was then
in Salt Lake, went to the scene immedi-
ately with train carrying laborers aud
construction material.
The Los Angeles Limited train will
stop at Salt Lake. and it is expected that
arrangements will be made whereby all
tickets to Los Angeles will be honored
over the Southern Pacific. Train No.
yesterday went out on schedule time,
and will make the run to Acoma and
back to Salt Lake every day to take
care of the local traffic.

RAD|uM POSSIBILITIES
What May Happen If This Pre-
cious Metal Becomes Com
mon and Low Priced

When radium was found in pitch
blende, hopes were high that 1t
would make vital economic changes.
A product which gives light and heat
without loss Of substance meant, II
cheaply produced, g substitute for gas
and electricity. for coal and petroleum.
Imagination ran very high at such .
prospect. One thought Of q locomotive
getting its power from boilers heated by
a trifiing bit of radium-a fuel that
would outlast the great machine itself
and its successor for all time. A pin
point Of it in each room of . house
would light and warm the structure !;
and another would RON the family cook
ing range without replenishment. The
mills and factories might shut of their
coal or oil supplies, and, possessed Of
few grains Of radium. steam ahead at
full speed. All fuel bunkers on ship
board could be added to cargo space,
and an ocean liner could boom along on
lump Of metal no larger than a thim-
BILE. Another lump might light city
from the top of its highest hill.
These were some of the day dreams.
but they were soon to vanish. A little
matter of cost intervened. Something
like two million dollars an ounce was
the retail price of radium on the street.
1t was cheaper TO buy coal and gas for
generation than radium for day. So
the new metal came to be regarded as
curio which had mixed up theories
about the conservation of energy and
could have no practical value unless
pitchblende could be found in guam.

Perhaps-who knows?-the discovery
will come to pass. Already find Of
high grade uranium ore is reported
from Denver. No such mass of pitch.
blende was ever seen before, though it
is not yet known whether there is
enough to make the new metal avail
able in the worlds work. If so. some
of the day dreams may come true. If
not. hope will range high that other
discoveries will follow until dollars
rather than millions OF them come to
designate the market price.
