COMPANY PLANS
ORE OPERATION
ON ROCK CREEK
Commercial Production To
Be Started by State
Corporation

R. NJ. Tone, president, E. B.
HUBBARD and E. G. Hansen of Mon
tana Chrome, Inc, made recon-
Nuisance of the Rock creek canyon
south of Red Lodge, Tuesday, to
plan location of the concentration
plant to be built for development
Of the Hellroaring chromite de-
posts.
Statements issued in Red Lodge
corrected a supposition that the
project will be an experimental
enterprise. According to Mr.. Hub
ard, the feasibility of Beartooth
chrome production has been al
ready proven, and the company
now intends to go into commercial
production, though on a small
scale at the outset. It is under
stood that there is an unlimited
market for ferro-chrome, the COM
bination of chromite and ore to be
smelted in this region. Ferro-
chrome is the alloy used in MAX
ing stainless steel.
AS soon as weather permits,
tunnels are to be surveyed in the
Hellroaring field (above and west
of the Rock creek canyon), trails
will be cleared, necessary tram
ways and structures will be erect
ed. The concentration plant, or
mill, probably will be located at
the mouth of Hellroaring creek
(near the Morrison-Knudsen high
way camp, and the ore conveyed
from the plateau by trans or
chutes.
The plan as described by COM
pany men calls for production of
chronic oxide at the concentra-
ton plant, and the production of
ferro-chrome and perhaps steel in
a smelter, to be located either in
the Red Lodge region or at Laurel.
Iron contained in the Beartooth
chromite, which assays about 45
per cent chrome, is said to be
sufficient for production of ferro-
chrome, although later develop
ment may demand iron ore from
other Montana fields. The Rum
ming Wolf field near White Sui
phur Springs has been mentioned
as a possible source.
Articles of incorporation have
been filed by 10 Montanans who
hold claims to the Beartooth
chromite lenses and whose re-
sources are behind the project.
Incorporators are: j. c.. O'Don-
nell, A. A. Nicolaus, DR.. L. w.
Allard, A. T. Peterson, R. M.
Tone, F. C. Cline, E. G. O'Keefe

number was 1872. State school

In Main Bouts

In two feature bouts of the 90
round boxing card scheduled for
Saturday night in the Red Lodge
Workers hall, Charles Saasta-
moinen, local favori4e, will meet
Herman Knaub of Fromberg, and
Albert (Huck FINN Mihelcic of
Washoe will mix with Bob Petit
of Billings.
Three or four preliminaries and
semifinals have been arranged by
Matchmakers Henry Albert and
Leland Newman, enthusiasts and
promoters of the fist: sport in
this region.
In the semifinal, Don Cook of
Red Lodge, 140 pounds, and Cliff
Geihart of Washoe, las pounds,
will battle at catchweights. Cook
has exercised control over every
one of his weight in this town,
but is expected to meet some real
resistance in Geihart, who is a
heavy slugger.
0rville Williams, fast hitting
lightweight of Washoe, will bat
tie four rounds with Art Santa
vica of Bearcreek. The opening
matches will bring together Mar
tin Nyback and Earl Christensen,

pected to show some of the action
he uncorked at Salt Lake City last
month, when he won the light
heavy division in the A. A. u. in
termountain boxing tournament
by a series of three knockouts.
His opponent is by no means a
setup, as is well known by Red
Lodge fans who have seen young
Knaub at work in the ring. He
has lost only one or two decisions
in this county, and has met al
most every come-on in his divis-
ion in the county. His last APP
pearance in Red Lodge was last
Fourth of July, when he subdued
Buck Rigby of Belfry. Both
Knaub and Saastamoinen will
weigh in at about ITO pounds.

SCHOOLS need
SAME LEVY AS
THAT OF 1882
Trustees Declare 12-Mill
Levy Necessary to Keep
r. L. Schools Open

That grade schools of district
No. l, Red Lodge, will need the
same extra levy as last year in
order to carry out the purposes OF
education in this city was the con-
clusion of the board of trustees at
Thursdays meeting.
The taxpaying freeholders will
again be asked for the additional
12-mill levy for the school fund in
addition to the levy provided by
state law. Official notice of the
special election, April %, is
printed in this issue of the News.
Taking stock of the school sys-
tenn and operation costs, the board
Thursday faced the facts that the
extra 12-mill levy Ia lower extra
levy than had been allowed in the
years preceding 1882 will be
necessary in order that the
schools can operate according to
state standards of education, and
that if the taxpayers refuse to
grant the usual money, the schools
will not be able to give instruc-
ton for a full school year in 1885
"a.
When the extra levy last year
was reduced to IL mills, the school
board put into effect drastic econ
omy measures, cutting salaries
and operation costs while endeav-
oring to keep the system running
on a standard school rating.
Further reduction of teachers
salaries may be forthcoming, but
the cut should not diminish the
necessity of the 12-mill levy, due
to the fact that school funds are
in a state of depletion because OF
delinquent taxes. The board has
promised to perform every econ
omy. short of a curtailment of the
school year or lowering of educat-
ional values, if allowed the mini
mum amount necessary to work
with.
The schools have met the chal-
lenge of hard times received last
year. The teaching staff was re-
duced, one Red Lodge school
building was temporarily vacated,
pupils were concentrated in class
rooms that are now crowded to
the point where further reduction
of the teaching staff would cause
inefficient instruction and a low
ering Of educational standards.
Salaries of all school employees
were reduced from eight to IS per
cent, Superintendent Field taking
a voluntary cut Of $3.50 a year.
Financial records Of the school
district show that the system has

Following reports that the Ohio

Greek oil for the Imperial Oil
company of Canada, it was re-

crude were shipped from Bridger
last Thursday, and that about
10000 barrels a week are to be
