ALDER DAM LONGER

The Alder dam. about two miles
up the river. will be longer and
higher. The crown will measure
approximately 1000 feet and the
cascading water will fall at least
800 feet. II was necessary to
reach down about 40 feet below
the rivers bed before the dam
could be anchored. Dams this
size usually require depths of at
least 100 feet.
In addition to supplying about
$4,000 kilowatts. the Alder dam
will also act as a reservoir for IT.
self and La Grande.
When the wall of Alder
goes up, the town of Alder
goes down. The site of the
village win be submerged 10
feet below water. Its homes
win be moved to a higher
land. The water will stretch
way hack to the backyard Of
Elbe. There will be lake
covering at least $500 acres.
Priorities, the bugaboo of the
nation. have not seriously affected
the building so far. Work on the
La Grande job will be completed
100 per cent. The Alder dam at
present will continue up to the
point of setting up the power
house. BY that time oNeil hopes
to have permission from the War
Production Board to complete the
job.
SAWMILL SELF-SUPPORT1NG
A self-supporting sawmill stands
as an outgrowth of clearing oper-
atoms. Before the water Is per-
mitted to back up. all obstruc-
tons and timber must be removed.
O'Neil devised the scheme to set
up a sawmill to process all the
lumber.
AS a result, the mill supplies
all the timber needed for con-
struction on the project. II also
supplies nearby commercial mills
with raw material for national
defense orders. O'Neil estimates
that at least six million feet will
be cut.
DIFFICULT I'd GET LABOR
Even though the pay 10 good
and the meals better, O'Neil says
that it Is difficult to get laborers.
He reports that even offering a
laborer $3.50 a day doesn't supply
the project with enough men.
In addition TO getting good
pay, the men are supplied with
comfortable living quarters.
Meals are served ut so cents
each. A sample meal consist
ed of soup, two meat dishes,
vegetable, dessert. and believe
IL or not, coffee.
The project is estimated to cost
about IA million dollars. O'Neil
anticipates it viii be paid off IN
about 20 years. He contends fur
Their that If no unusual demands
are made on the lighting system.
Tacoma viii be self-sustaining and
will have no cause to buy out
side power.
The dams are scheduled for COM
pletion in about a year.
