TACOMA MAY NOT
GET STEEL PLANT

Ii took Birmingham, ALABAMA,
so years to develop steel in
dustry in a spot where blast fur
naces could be built almost on top
of the mines producing iron ore
and coking coal. 10 was Birming-
hams natural advantage to have
such a combination. but just try
TO get IL translated into an in
dustry and payrolls.
Tacoma sits In such a spot to-
day. Probably 1t will not get a
steel industry; some wise men
back east have insisted 1t wouldn't
be feasible-that the west coast
scrap plants plus rail and water
shipments from the east coast will
always be able to meet west coast
requirements.
The fight right now Is for as
Segment OF more aluminium pro-
duction to Pacific northwest sites
among them. Maybe
we'll win there. in spite of eastern
industrial resistance.

A note about the rock known as
granite appears in letter from
Mr.. Nels Mattson. He points out
that granite is ''plutonic" and not
volcanic" rock.
To make that point clear we
must go into the substance called
magma" 1t is molten rock which
exists in many parts of the earth's
crust. below the surface. Often It
is thrown into the open air by a
volcano and when it flows out We
call it lava" The lava hardens
and becomes rock.
Sometimes magma has welled up
but has not reached the surface Of
the ground. In these cases it some
times has found large openings be-
tween layers of rock and flowed
into them. Later it hardened into
granite.
In other words, granite came from
the same kind of material as lava,
but 1t hardened underground. Pres

sure from rocks above 1t gave 1t q
special hardness.
If that is so we may wonder how
great masses of granite can be found
at the surface of the earth. The
answer is to be found in the work
of weather and running water
through the ages.
Scientists tell us that rain has
been falling on the earth for mil
lions of years, 1t sinks into the
ground or else runs over the sur
face. On the surface the water
forms into streams and rivers.
Slowly it can-and does-wear away
rock.
More might be told OF the way
rock layers at the surface have been
broken up and worn away. After
a long time masses of granite have
been exposed at the surface OF the
earth.
The rising of parts OF the earths
crust also has been important In

bringing granite from deep places
up to the surface.
Granite ranks among the ex-
tremely hard rocks OF the earth.
We may speak of it as q close
cousin of such lava rocks as obsidian
and basalt.
A great deal of granite is gray,
but that is by no means its only
shade. Much granite is black or
red. and some is white or green.

Deportation Of t20 Aliens
SUSPENDED Six Months

Attorney General Jackson notified
Congress yesterday that he was sus-
pending for six months the deporta-
ton of 120 aliens who are deportable
only because of technical violation
of the immigration laws.
Details in each case were fur
nished Congress, which has power
to set aside the Attorney Generals
ruling.
Mr.. Jackson said the 120 were of
good moral character, are eligible for
admission to this country and 'in
each case deportation would result
In serious economic detriment to
citizen or local resident who is the
aliens spouse, parent or minor
child" He added that a large
number of similar cases is pending
before the department.
The new Alien Registration Act
made it obligatory on the Attorney
General to notify Congress in these
suspension cases. Before that dis
cretion was vested entirely in the
Secretary of Labor, who formerly
administered the immigration laws.

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-Wheat prices
fell almost 3 cents a bushel today as
the market reflected trade reaction
to Government plans for ultimate
disposal of grain acquired by the
Commodity Credit Corp. through
default of loans in 1889 and 1910.
While prices at which this grain
will be offered are above current
market quotations, traders said the
plan to sell ITO, 900 900 bushels of this
wheat amounts to what some de-
scribed as a flexible ceiling" over
the market. Some dealers also ex-
pressed belief the plan may affect
farmers attitude in holding back
l941 grain for loans.
At noon wheat was 1h-2 cents
lower, compared with yesterdays
finish: December, 1928; May,
sl.254; corn, w down: December,
1898; May, 1855; soybeans, M
higher.
Some Of the selling Of wheat was
believed to have been hedging
against increased receipts at several
markets. The IL terminals received
861 900 bushels. compared with 727,.
900 a week ago and $4,000 a year
ago. Grain men noted that Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wickard strongly
opposed suggestions that restrictions
on 1912 wheat acreage be removed.
Late short covering, prompted
partly by Secretary Wickard's OPP
position to suggestions that restric-
tons on 1912 wheat acreage be re-
moved, rallied prices to some extent.
Wheat closed 1A-1% lower than
yesterday, December. $1233s; May,

December, 1875; May, s3b-%; oats.
