ing industry in Butte has been re-
vived with the reopening of the Emma
mine, and the construction of con-
centrating and nodulizing plant in
Anaconda. Manganese carbonate Qho-
dochrosite) ore is mined from the
Emma mine in Butte and Is concen-
trated and roasted to produce black
manganese oxide in Anaconda. The
operation is being conducted by the
Anaconda Copper Mining Co. One
thousand tons of rhodochroSite ore are
mined daily in Butte, from which $50
tons Of nodulized manganese oxide are
produced by the plant in Anaconda.
Tungsten
Production of the tungsten mineral,
scheelite, has for the past several years
been an increasingly important by
product of the gold mining operations
at Jardine in Park county. Recovery
for 1910 was so tons of concentrates
containing IS percent WO3 as COM
pared to 20 tons for 1899; 1941 pro-
duction will no doubt exceed that for
1910 as the recovery of scheelite is be-
ing emphasized. The mineral occurs in
association with the gold bearing
quartz veins and was probably dis
covered in the process of treating the
gold ore.
Potential sources of additional tung-
stem concentrate from Montana are
the misunderstanding quartz pegma-
ttte veins of the Potosi district in
Madison county. These veins have been
trenched and sampled by the WPA
mineral resources survey. They are
low grade but definitely mineable if
production of additional domestic
tungsten becomes a necessity.
Copper
Copper is still Montana's ranking
metal product and in this period of
national emergency and booming de-
tense production, which is requiring
far more copper than the nation can
now produce, the Butte copper mines
are among the nations No. l assets.
They are now in full operation and
development work is being pushed
ahead to open up new and deeper
levels in the mines while plants, equip

| Although the Montana miners can
not point to any significant actual
new mineral discovery made during
the past 10 years or so, they have
| founded, and are building, new AND
vitality important industries upon dis
coveries made years ago. These new
! industries which now utilize long
known but previously productive
mineral deposits are parallel in inter
est and Significance to new mineral
discoveries. They are as definite and
valuable an addition to state and ma
tional economy as a new discovery.
Wartime Stimulation
Factors responsible for the develop
ment of the new and relatively new
industries vary. Chromite and manga
nese production stem from wartime
necessity as do increased zinc, tung-
stem and copper production. Tale and
vermiculite mining are normal indus
trial developments although they will
no doubt be at least temporarily slim
ulated by the wartime industrial
boom.
Currently the most publicized of
Montana's mineral resources are the
chromite deposits of the Saltwater
Complex in Saltwater and Sweet Grass
counties and of Line creek and Hell
Roaring plateaus in Carbon county.
During 1910 and 1941 the chromite de-
posits of the Saltwater Complex have
been studied by the United States
geological survey and an extensive
program of diamond drilling and sam
pling has been carried on by the q. S.
Bureau of Mines in the Benbow and
Mouat properties east and west of the
Saltwater river to determine tonnage
and grade of ore available. This work
indicates one to two million tons of
25 to 30 percent Cr2O3 ore in widths
of to feet in the Benbow property,
and a similar tonnage and grade in
somewhat greater widths in the Mouat
property. The U. S. geological survey
in bulletin 922-N expresses the opinion
that 1t (the chromite) would con-
tinue to any mineable depth"
saltwater Chr0mite
The chromite band in the saltwater
igneous complex extends from Fish
tail creek south of Dean in Saltwater
county to the valley of the Boulder
river at a point some 80 miles south
of Big Timber in Sweet Grass county,
a total length of 81 miles. Paul A.
Schafer in Montana Bureau of Mines
and Geology Memoir 10 "Chromite
Deposits of Montana" estimated the
chromite band to contain 100000
tons of possible ore and 100000 tons
of speculative ore averaging Is per-
cent Cr2O3.
Plans are being pushed for the pro-
duction OF chromite concentrate from

traitor is being built and the deposit
is being prepared for mining.

JOB DISCRIMINATION FOUGHT

More than 60 prominent union lead
ers and labor editors in New York
have given their unqualified endorse
ment to the detectives of Governor
Lehmans Committee on Discrimina-
tion in Employment, says an an
nouncement by Industrial Commits
sioner Frieda S. Miller, chairman of
the committee.
Replying to a letter sent them by
Commissioner Miller, these leaders,
representing virtually all branches of
organized labor in the state, declared
they would be happy to do everything
possible to cooperate in the commit
tees campaign against undemocratic
employment practices, which has as
its objective equal opportunity for al
regardless of race, color, creed or ma
ClOflal exIfacLlOn.
A few months ago Governor Leh-
man appointed the committee, under
the State Council on National Defense
to deal with the problem, pointing out
that discriminatory hiring practices
deprive our defense effort of needed
workers, in addition to contradicting
our democratic way of life.
Commissioner Miller's announce
ment is good news. The discrimination
the labor representatives oppose must
go, if America is to remain true to
its ideals. AS Jacob Rosenberg, presi-
dent of Local 802, American Fedora
tion of Musicians, said:
eve do not inquire into race, creed
or color when we call upon Americans
to make sacrifices for the maintenance
or defense of the democratic prin-
ciples which underlie our form of gov

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

British organized labor is taking a
realistic and hard-headed view of aid
| to Soviet Russia. While not relaxing
in the slightest its opposition to Com
munism, labor recognizes that giving
of all possible help to the Russian
armies is now the best way to deal a
blow at Hitlerism.
The attitude of the British workers
was made clear at the annual Trade
Union Congress, just held at Edin-
burgh and attended by 600 delegates
representing 100000 trade unionists.
The meeting, by unanimous vote, ex-
pressed it's sincere satisfaction with
the alliance formed with Soviet Rus
sia" but drew the line against con-
verting the war cooperation into any
closer relations with the Communist
party.
Refusal to cooperate with the Com
munist party was dictated of course
by recollections of unfortunate ex-
periences with the party in the past.
Sir Walter Citrine, secretary of the
Trades Union Congress general coun-
ell, emphasized that the congress had
no intention of collaborating with the
British Communist group because, he
pointed out, it has proved itself un-
trustworthy. This was mild way of
putting it, in view of the fact that the
British and Russian Communists for
years did their best to disrupt and
destroy British labor organization on
the economic and political fields.
A furore was caused at the meeting
by charges that people in high places
hope that Russia and Germany will
exterminate each other. The specific
accusation was made that Britain S
Minister of Aircraft Production, Lieut.
Col Moore -Brabazon, held this view
view which has been expressed by
many Americans since Hitler invaded
Russia. 1t was further alleged that
Moore Brabazon had expressed the
hope that through this mutual exter-
mination, Britain would become the
dominating power in Europe.
II hope the government will remove

AFTER WAR PERIL EMPHASIZED

Danger of an economic, collapse
after the war and the urgent necessity
of planning now to avert the danger
were emphasized By William Green
George Meany and other Labor Day
speakers.
Green demanded the immediate
start of planning to cope with unem-
ployment at the end of the defense
program. He warned that the moment
defense production stops, millions of
workers will inevitably lose their jobs
and the worst depression this nation
has ever seen may ensue
The American Federation Of Labor,
Green said, had called on President
Roosevelt for the start of planning
now 'for expanded peacetime produc-
tion which will take up the slack of
war pTOuucIlOH WHEN the Iliue COIHSS.
1--WE have asked the President" he
added, ito invite representatives of
business, finance, labor and agricul-
ture to sit down with government rep
resentatives and draw up a long-range
program This is only common-sense
insurance against economic collapse"
Nothing except the problem of win
ming the war can be more important
than the planning action asked by
President Green. 1t should begin at
once, be pushed with all possible speed
and the nation should be kept fully

from it's ranks those who are reaction
ary and irresponsible enough to make
the statements they have and, in eff
feet, desire the defeat of the Soviet
Union," said the delegate who made
the charge against Moore -Brabazon.
Citrine declared he was startled"
at the charge and added it was a
very serious position if the accusa-
tion can be substantiated."
Interesting accounts of the heroic
defense of Warsaw by the city's work
ers when Germany invaded Poland
two years age are just coming to light.
poland Fights" bulletin issued by
the American Friends of Polish De-
mocracy, New York, says that the de-
fense of Warsaw was mot only a deed
of heroism, it was a great achieve
ment." 1t goes on to say that when
the authorities left Warsaw on Sep
tember 5, it was to be surrendered
without a struggle. The account con-
tinues:
"But the workers organizations,
and, following their lead, the entire
population, decided to continue the
fight The organization of workers
battalions began.
Meanwhile, anti-tank trenches and
barricades were being made in the
suburbs. On the eleventh, German
tanks penetrated the western suburbs.
They were repulsed with heavy losses.
Warsaw women threw bottles of petrol
at the tanks and set them alight. More
anti-tank trenches were dug Streets
were mined. Day and night the city
was subject to ferocious bombing and
artillery fire.
"But gallantry could not take place
of planes and anti-aircraft guns, nor
of food and water. When Warsaw ca
pitulated there was food for only three
more days and munitions for only one
day. Yet one member of the Defense
Committee, the labor leader Niedzial-
kowski, refused to sign the declara-
tion of capitulation. The working
class does not surrender he said, the
workers continue their fight"
