Leavy Wants
RFC to Help
Demands Use of
Mognesite Ore

f>Wfflal 10 Inc tttHF@f
WASHINGTON. II. ca plea
Tor immediate government con-
struetion with RFC funds Of a
plant to use Eastern Washington
low-grsde msgnesite ore in pro
duction Of magnesium was made
IN the House Of Representatives
hv Congressman Charles X. Leavy,
who was nominated Thursday as
federal judge for the Tacoma dis
trict.
The Washington representative
called for an end 10 delay by the
RFC and OPN in encouragement
Of production OF the important de-
tense metal. He proposed that
Grand Coulee's enormous electric
power output be used in a new
process of magnesium production
developed recently at Washing
ton state college.
Dean A. f. Drucker of the
W. s. c. school of mines said re-
serves Of magnesite ores in Stevens
county will last decades.
Two critical bottlenecks
confront the oPM and RFC
and other agencies struggling
with defense production" de-
clared Congressman Leavy.
They are electric energy and
raw material for light metals.
Here we have both located
within q few miles Of each
other and yet no action Is
taken.
The Germans have been MAX
ing this marvellous metal for the
last six or seven years in great
quantities out of ore. Their Stuka
dive bombers are practically built
of magnesium. instead OF alumni
mum, because of the great saving
in weight. Their shell castings
are magnesium. instead of alumni
mum. for the same reason"
