from hundred to hundred and
fifty metallic and non-metallic
mines. They need only power for
economical development.
in the Goodsprings-Yellow Pine
district alone more than $4,000, 90
has been taken out in ores.
"The dam means different things
/ to different communities; Flood
control and irrigation for the I'm

estic water supply for Los Angeles
and more than two dozen other
cities of the Southern California

In his usual delightful way, Sen

statement that every requirement
for putting the bill into effect in

The Senator made the statement
that the greatest and permanent
prosperity CT Las Vegas would fol-
low the completion of the dam
when our natural resources would
be developed and great industries
built by the use of cheap power.
He suggested that in the oper-

CARBIDE WILL
BE MADE AT
VEGAS--BALLIET
Important Industrial Manu-
tacture Destined tor South
ern Nevada with Power
Development, Says Ballet.

The production in Southern
Nevada of great quantities OF
carbide, which is used in the
manufacture OF acetyIene gas,
an industrial product growing
increasingly important in the
welding OF metaIS, Will be made
possible by the development OF
Colorado River power after the
construction of Boulder Dam,
for there is In these parts an
inexhaustible supply Of Lime
and an abundant supply OF
coke availabIef rom Utah by
direct transportation according
to LetSOn Ballet, TOnOpah en-
gineer, who recently visited this
city making a survey Of the
chemical industrial possibilities
OF tbs city and envirOnS for a
number Of large eSatern firms.
Most Of the carbide made in tht
United States is made at Niagara
Falls in electric furnaces under the
Niagara Falls power plants, say
Ballet, and the remainder is made
under the electric power plants o.
the Mississippi River near Keokuk
Iowa.
Extensive Uses
Nearly all pipe lines for water
gas, electric conduitS, refrigeration
compressed air, that are now being
laid in the cities and in the mines
are welded. Railroad rails, frog:
and crossings have great use fol
the Welding torch.
"Acetylene gas is used in light
houses and signal buoyS, for To-
comotive headlights and for IL
of railway coaches.
"a proper mixture OF grouno
coke and lime is used in an elec-
trio furnace for the production Of
carbide. If pure Utah coke
and good quicklime, which can be
made abundantly in Nevada, is u.s.
ed in the electric furnace at from
7 900 to 10000 degrees Of heat
there is formed an ingot of very
pure carbide surrounded by cruSt
of less pure product"
Great Future"
Ballet sees a great industria
future for this city because OF the
presence of various mineral re-
sources which would have beer
utilized long ago but for the fac
that power rates were prohibitive
wit hthe developing of cheaper
power much manufacturing nov
done in the east because Of thu
