C8l1lSs
 Engineers estimated the tunnel, started in May, 1897, would be flns islaed in May. Wogkltaen say the en. gineers' estimates, made those four years ago, will be correct.
 .Netunnel, starting from Tooele on the western slope Of the Oquirrhs, was designed to provide drainage for mines att he upper end of Bingham Canyon, site ot fabulously rich deposits of copper and rare metals.
 Water from the mines will flow through the tunnel to irTigate hun. dreds of acres of Ylow.arid lands in desert.like Hooele valley. Through the tunnel will be hauled ore from the mines to slmelters already oper. ating here. The ore now is hauled over Q tramway that crosses the summit of the mountains, named the 0quirfhs because that is the Ute Indian word for west Flills". The mountains rim the western edge of the vallek of the Great Salt Lake.
 Drill 3S Feet In Day
 Average progress of the miners is about 3S feet a day. Last August Q monthly record was established when the bore was advanced lI042 feet in Si days.
 Hard rock and treacherously soft rock. in addition to floods of water, have presented the chief difficultiee to the tunnel workers.
 When hard rock was encoun. tered, 6 drill carriage was brought to the face of the tunnel. Five drill- CTS mounted the carriage, drileld the rock face in 3S places and load- ed the holes with dynamite. The powder, exploded electrically, shat- tered tons Of rock from the face and 1t was hauled out by full gangs"
 Engineers put the average rock broken out with each round 0! blasts st l26 tons.
 The soft dirt presented the dan ger of cave.irs and carpenters were kept busy, fashioning supports Sor the roof of the tunnel.
 The water, trickling through the mountains from November to June came through at times in virtual torrents. Last December, . subter- ranean stream was struck that re. leased @ flow of 5,514 gallons 1ain- ute. Aveage flow is 4,3o0 gallons e minute.
 Excelsior as BlOtter
 Duly through use of tons of ex- celsior-fashioned into huge blot ters--a,1d miles of steel rods that supported the excelsior was the water kept away from the working surface. Four major faults geological tern for a strata Of rock formed by eartt slippage-have been encountered st far. Superintendent A. w. T1lio1 believed one more fault will be on, countered before the tunnel is fin ished. ..r on Feb. iS of this year c faul was encountered that was so hart that crews required 90 days to figh' their way through % feet of water and rock.
 The tunnel is being drilled by the National Tunnel and Mines Com, pany, Q subsidiary of the A1aaconda Copper Mining Company, whict .lso controls the International Smel. ting and Refining Company, opera. tor of the Tooele snelterS and the mines with which the tunnel will be connected.
 The bore was named "Elton tun. mel" after J. o. Elton, general man.

 The film, which was produced with the cooperation of the ?. 3. I. In Washington, Is wholly unlike previous motion picture treatments of the Bureau in that t does not dwell upon the "G-Man" and the Tommy gun" '
 Realizing thst AInsyicasss are al- ready well aware Of the excellent record of J. Edgar lsccVsT and his able stan in checking kidnapping and interstate crime, the editors ot tine March o{ Time show the special agents oS the y. B. I isl their new role tcday-the pre-. vention of espionage and sabotage In defense industries.
 DramatiZing an actual recent case of espionage involving bur- glayy and murder jn a factory working on defense orders, in which special agents of the F. B. I. play tlIeiF yeal-life yoles, the March of Time tllm shows how the efi- cieHt men of the Justice Depart llaent's most publicized bureau eri- ploy the latest and most scientific methods of crime detection in as- sembling, aaalysiag attd piecing together the bits of evidence reces- sary to find and convict Americas internal enemies.
 During the period of the First World War 2S years ago, the March of Time points out, many patriotic, weli-meaning but untrained groups of people attempted to do the job which Is now entrusted to the Y. B. I. Today however. after years of p4inStaking preparation and experience, the E. .. !. Is now able tQ torestall a sepetition Df sue hinstanees of sabctaee as the famous Sleek Torl explosion. and thus maintain the internal security of the nation.
 Far from being an American 0estapo. the March of Time shows, the "Men of the ?. B. T." consti- ute nevertheless vigilant and ef- ticient arm of national defense.

 Shaft Down 2A5S Feet
 The tunnel will connect with thc Rood shaft of the Utah Apex mine in Upper Bingham canyon at the 2A76 foot level--2,746 feet below the surface of the mountain. This mine has been operated down to the $500 foot level in previous years but the lower levels have been abandoned because of the high cost of pumping water that was con- stantly present. n. This water now will be drained by gravity through the Eton tunnel. eliminating the costly pumping op. mineral deposits to Dc tapped.
 When the drills are pulled out, the differs will rush to safety as the torrent Of water Is ioosened and starts pouring through the tunnel. Digging operations will be halted until the mine is dained down to the tunnel level. Then ti will be com pleted. ".
 Total cost of the four and one. half mile tunnel is estimated at 4i, ,26O 900.
