SURVEY FINDS
TUNGSTEN IN
POTOSI area

Montanas mineral resources sur
yey, a part of the state-WPA ma
tional defense program, has just
completed a survey Of the Petosi
mining district, 10 miles from Pony
the third of its kind to be COM
pleted during the last few months.
Previously surveyed and to be re-
ported upon are a manganese de-
post south of Ennis and a nickel
deposit southeast of Dillon
Sponsored by Montana School
OF Mines. the project is under the
direction of President F. A. Thorn
SON Carl Trauerman, president OF
the Montana Mining association is
state supervisor
The report on the Petosi mining
district will be finished within the
next few weeks complete with maps
showing mineral deposits. Reports
are TO be made also on the other
two deposits and forwarded to the
Bureau of Mines and the War de-
partment in Washington, d. c.
Results of the Petosi survey
show there are several hundred /
thousand tons of tungsten (hub- !
nerite,) low grade ore which will |
probably average one half of one
per cent, present in the area. !
Tungsten is a strategic mineral US (
ed for hardening tool steel and for
radio lamp filaments. Since about
SO per cent of the present supply
comes from China. a supply which
is being gradually cut off, the find
is of considerable Importance.
The two survey reports soon
available concern the manganese de-
post Is miles south Of Ennis and
the nickel deposit 20 miles south
east of Dillon. Manganese is used
in the manufacture of high grade
steel and nickel is used extensively
in almost every kind of war mater
ial.
The projects field work policy
is to investigate all strategic min
eral deposits brought to attention
and. upon recommendation Of the
sponsor, to make a superfine field
examination, including mapping,
and making a report on
availability of power, water, tim
Der and transportation
Providing technical supervision
can be obtained, six crews of 10
men each will begin additional
surveys as soon as weather per-
mits. The next work will be with
lntimony deposits near Thompson t
Falls and Dillon and with chrome
deposits in Carbon and Madison !
counties. &
In order to bring to light many
strategic deposits of minerals pre-
'iously surveyed which have been
dormant since the last war, the
'roject is editing and bringing I'D
o date photography of all Mon n
ana mining districts for both me- 4
allie and non-metaic minerals.

a circuit court decision holding
that Henry Ford was within his
legal rights in distributing pamph-
let's to his employees criticizing

was overruled by the sixth
circuit court of appeals on
grounds that 1T infringed the
constitutional rights of free
speech and free press.
A high justice department Off
cial said that a definite decision
on the subject of appeal has been
reached and that the issue is vir-
tually dead" within the depart
ment, but that the possibility of
reconsideration remains.
Decision not to appeal leaves
the circuit court decision final and
binding and stands as an import
ant precedent.
