dyke which extends from the Boul-
der river on the west to Chrome
Mountain on Rock Greek are to
be found more or less continuous
lenses of chrome ore Biologists and
prospectors describe these chrome
lenses as varying from 10 inches
to six feet in width and containing
heavy concentrated masses of chro-
mite oxide content varying from
80 percent to As percent This ore
concentrates easily to AZ percent
chromite oxide with a ratio OF
one and one-half tons of ore
into the ton of concentrates. This
concentrate averages as follows:
Chronic oxide 1870 to 500
Iron oxide 1870 to ~ 30i
with average at 20%
Aluminium oxide 1910 TO 10 70
Magnesium oxide so to 1870
Caldium Traces to- 70
Silica O.5% to Luz
Capable engineers have estimat-
ed 3O,OOO,OOO long tons of ore can
be removed from these deposits. The
eastern or Red Lodge end of the
deposits while disturbed by fault
ing can be the most easily mined.
Here. some 100000 tons Of ore av-
erage as follows:
Chronic oxide 269o to 4O%o
Iron oxide 1879 to $40
Aluminium oxide 1870 to ITO
Magnesium oxide 1919 to 1870
Caldium oxide Trace to so
Silica go to 1910
This ore can be readily mined
and dropped to road level which
allows easy down-grade hauling on
the oiled road to Red Lodge, some
IA miles distant. The western end
of the deposit is more difficult OF
approach, requiring some road
building, but the lenses are easily
followed and it is estimated that
26,000,00O tons of ore should be
recoverable i'm the area.
There are additional deposits in
the area, constituting what is be-
lieved to be the largest commercial
chrome deposit in the United
States. These properties are held
by local groups who are without
adequate lluduGGS " uGfGAOp LACAA
and chrome importers in the East
have discouraged efforts to finance
development, in the past. The new
world conditions created by the
war may make it possible to fl
nance this development in the inn
mediate future.
A competent survey, conducted by
the Mineral Resources committee,
will make it possible to submit
these deposits to the attention of
the federal government which needs
a large amount of chrome for its
rearmament program Thus private
capital may be induced to develop
this ore, for sale to the government
at present prices which offer OPP
portunity for profitable operation
plus amortization of the cost of
research and construction.

Drastic Precaution

Action of the city fathers in drastically forbidding all-night parking within one-half mile radius of Exchange Place is not unexpected. Nor is it any more drastic than it should be. For years now Waterbury has Leen faced with grave after-dark problems caused by congestion along streets that were both residential and business. For years various officials, mostly fire, have been warning us of the dangers of allowing automobiles to be parked all night long. There are so many hazards attached to this that in many communities long ago it was out lawed.
 While this may seem like hardship on many car owners who haven't garage facilities available in their immediate vicinity, nevertheless, the real effect will be beneficial to both the owner, his neigh bor, and the city at large. Traffic isn't too severely impeded by this type Of all- night parking until winter weather ar rives. Then the fun begins with only one lane of travel available on the mar rover streets and two lanes at the most on wider ones.
 Add to this the problem that fire men face when they are called in the middle of the night to blaze on a street that is lined with parked cars. Not only is it difficult to get hose at tached to the hydrants, but there's always the danger of fire spreading and the parked automobiles providing good finder We knew that such q law would ultimately be drawn up for our mutual benefit. Let's face it graciously and willingly now that it has come.

A Cry From Tortured China

For more than three years China has been overrun by Japanese armies, her cities bombed from the air, her ports Shelled from the sea. Hundreds of thou sands have been killed. Many more thousands have died from exposure, star vation, and disease. For the most part China has fought alone. She has stood up against awful odds But there are limits to the agony men and women can endure. To emphasize this, it is only necessary to quote one paragraph from a recent report from Hong Kong by Madame Chiang Kai-shek, wife of the head of the Chinese government and command of its armies.
 This Chinese Christian woman, appeal ing to Americans of all creeds, said: "The temporary closing of the Burma Road has so depleted our medical supplies that major operations are still being performed without anesthetics. The sight of men and women and children being tortured in agony, and our utter helplessness to alleviate their pain, are experiences which hope will never be known by other people"
 To try to bring some help to China, a China Emergency Relief Committee has been formed, largely by the same people who few months ago constituted the Women's Committee of Tribute to China. That voluntary committee did it's bit to- ward relieving the terrible suffering of Chinese soldiers and civilians. IL fur nished 200 base hospitals with stcrilizers 60 badly needed when operations are per- formed. and 90 hospitals with modern eufN|caI implements 70 take the place 0f EtNI|e unsa NHlnN4faN hA1'AIV cut W pieces

RADIO SCORES IN BANDIT
 CAPTURE
(Hartford Times)

Nx1cI l1O10 A11ASoI
 Effective police work, when an- alyzed, is not the result of genius or some mysterious intuition which tells an officer where to find his man. It is, with an occasional bit of luck, just plain, efficient, quick action.
 Two-way radio fits into that sit- uation almost perfectly. It's recent installation by the State Police De- partment proved its effectiveness when, within an hour, three men, who had robbed a store in Man. chester, were captured in Spring field. The radio message got there ahead of them and officers did the rest. One officer received the mes sage at Warehouse Point, and, thanks to his sending device, told headquarters where he was as he sped to the highway, just in time to see the fleeing car speed north. Springfield officers had been put on the alert by radio. Thus the bandits were fleeing from one pursuing of ficser only to run into the waiting guns of other policemen.
 An important effect of such up- to-the-inmute police methods is crime prevention. Robbers will think a little longer and may not act at all, as they speculate about their chances of 6 getaway when two- way radio can put officers far and wide on their trail or athwart their path. It is entirely likely that two- way-radio will prove all that is claimed for it as an aid in the de- tection and prevention of crime.

Arguments over the Police and Fire Departments of Waterbury, relative to their comparison with those of other cities, could go on indefinitely without a meeting of the ways. But the Water bury Taxpayers League is obviously motivated in its present campaign by desire to bring about more economical city government locally. That is highly commendable and no one should find fault with it. Perhaps we should encour- age such efforts more than we have in the past But there are various ways of encouraging them. And certainly one is a proper discussion, pro and con, of the claims advanced. There are certainly two sides to the question of an over manned police force or fire department. And when discussing the same it should not be taken for granted that the present city and department officials are going counter to the aims of the Taxpayers League when they argue that the uni formed forces are not too large nor the apparatus too numerous. They speak from what they regard as the practical viewpoint, gained by experience. It car rieS weight, too.

We Are Being Protected

The defense meeting held in Waterbury yesterday afternoon was not open to the public What went on during the entire session is not available for public con- sumption, but just knowing that such a meeting was held and that various public officials attended and spoke is sufficient to assure Waterbury that everything pos Sible is being done to protect the city and it's 100000 citizens from bodily harm and property damage during these peril ouS times.
 The war has not yet come to this conti- ilent and pray God that it never does. But when the world is so unsettled war and hatred and violence are contagious. We must ever be on the alert against the enemy who dwells with us in seeming peace and contentment. We are confi- dent that this is best done by reposing complete confidence in our public off cialS and their understanding of the Situ ation and their preparations to cope with it.
 That it is capably understood and be- ing handled in similar fashion was demonstrated by yesterdays meeting here in Waterbury. Somehow or other after reading of it and some of the things that took place feeling of security is aroused within us. We are willing to abide by decisions our public officials make and to allow. them to conduct any necessary campaigns to wipe out treason or sabotage in our midst.

They Are a Peculiar Race

The boys in France in 1918 used to have song whose words asserted that the French, they are peculiar race. But the British, they are a peculiar races too. They are supposed to have caved in long ago. But they do not cave. Further, though thousands of civilians have been struck down by bombs as they slept, the British still don't like that method of waging war.
 They have over there an institution like the Gallup Poll, which has functioned right through the war without any in- reference from the government. Re- gently in the poll, this question was asked: Tn view of the indiscrininate bombing of this. country, would you ap- prove or disapprove if the R. A. F. adopted similar policy of bombing the civilian population of Germany"
 And 46 per cent of those boiled said they wouldn't approve it. The same per centage guessed they would. And eight per cent just couldn't decide. Our guess is that poll after the bombing of Coven- try would tell another story.

In addition, it supplied 15O,0OO doses of abatrine for the treatment of S5,OOO people suffering from malignant malaria, about one mil lion quinine tablets for the further fight against malaria epidemics and 850,000 doses of sulphathiazole, the so-called magic bullet" used in coping with bu- bonic plague.
 Even these figures are not impressive when compared with the terrible needs of stricken people whose numbers run into uncounted millions. There is, as consequence, one more urgent call to American charity. Everybody recognizes that the appeals to that charity are seem ingly endless. America is asked to ale viate hunger and suffering all over the world. China has one very big claim to help: in resisting Japan, she is resisting and maybe helping to exhaust war making totalitarian state none too friend ly to the United States.

Waterbury's first real -snow-storm of the current season is one of the earliest on record in recent years. That of two years ago was just two days later as it did not materialize into storm until Thanks giving Day And on the basis of what fol- lowed that 1888 storm it might be argued or even predicted that the approaching winter may be cold, but it's likely to be we we didn't % M have one of sizeable size proportions we recall it the snow failed to last long as it did year ago.

 The feud began when Ickes got reports of breakdown in law and order in the Virgin Islands, and sent an investiga- tor to look into the situation. But without waiting to learn very
 much about the investigation,
 Governor Cramer began firing hot letters to Secretary Ickes protesting that his personal life : was being investigated.
 Later Governor Cramer came to Washington for conference with Ickes, and as he was about to leave, Secretary IckeS drawled: Just one more thing, Governor. You've never sunk lower in my estimatiOn-if that's possible"

over the wires between God and man, causing a short circuit and keeping the heavenly power from coming into our souls. We may eX- pect no blessings from heaven, no sure answer to our prayers, while we nurse grudges, cherish lusts, deepen our hates, or tell lies and live them. These things are dead cats which short circuit the power by which God would refresh and strengthen our souls.
 When our Lord wanted to de- scribe a sinner, He told of a man sitting in pig pen filling his belly with the husks that the swine had left. Our Lord believed in using gross figures to describe scenes of grossness. The figure of dead cats may not be elegant, but 1t describes the nature of many things which prevent Gods grace from reaching the needy hearts of men.

 Reports from London bring the news that practically the entire bird life of the more heavily populated areas of England has been destroyed by the Nazi raiders. Thousands upon thousands of song and insectivorous birds may be seen on roadways and in fields, killed by the terrific concus- sion of German bombs.
 While merely incidental now to the waging of the most terrible war in history, the los sof it's bird life will prove a considerable blow to Britain for years to come, for these feathered friends perform an important task in keeping down the insect pests that attack growing crops.

Goddess is said to be working on transparent plastic bars which will be strong enough to hold wild ani- mals and yet be invisible to spec tators This scheme sounds plausible enough at first glance, but how will Gargantua, the gorilla, react to it? Already frenzied by a dark, male- volent hatred of the human race, would such an idea not drive him to even greater excesses? Other doubts arise. Just how far can one go safely in modernizing such a hallowed tradition as the circus without antagonizing the old-fash- toned among the customers? MT.

Selected Poem
THE OLD TOWN TAVERN

(By Herbert Durren Smart in the Boston Post In memory's picture comes to mind
 The old stage-coach we knew; I can see it now coming over the hill
 And into closer view. It stops at the tavern and guests alight The host is at the door; And cordial welcome awaits them there, In the old tavern of yore. When at last the guests depart, the host Regrets to have them leave; He charges them only moderate price
 For the service they receive. Tempting meals appease the appetites
 Of transient guests galore; And there were "all the comforts of home" In that old town tavern of yore. The jovial host is at the door
 To speed the departing guest; The rumbling old stage-coach rolls away Up the hill and over the crest ... The picture vanishes from view,
 The old stage-coach Is no more; And only Q wistful memory now
 Is that old town tavern of yore. Nashua, N H.. le4O.
