a hungry horse on his hands. Tex

Arnold owed Tex six dollars the
cowboy had given him to eat on.
When Huntern came back, he
gave him three dollars more.

When he opened the door OF his
stable, Black King came running
in from the corral and stood in
front of him. barring the way. He
looked bigger than the night be-

fake of hay in his arms, afraid
to chase him back.

TO the office where he used 10

him the whole story, knowing the

new DIVISION
HEAD NAMED FOR
OIL INDUSTRY

The creation in the Office of Pc
! troleum Co-ordinator Of a new division
of petroleum supply, with Robert Lee
Minckler in charge as director, was
announced by Co-ordinator Harold L.
Ickes
It will be the responsibility of the
new division to coordinate action on
the many complicated and overlapping
petroleum supply problems in a man
ner that will assure the availability
Of the required kinds of products at
the right time and the right place, in
quantities which, so far as possible, will
meet demands.
Explaining further the functions Of
the division, Deputy Co-ordinator
Ralph K. Davies said:
MANY Of the supply problems con-
fronting the oil industry in meeting
its war obligations affect more than
one functional division of the industry:
that Is production, refining, transpor-
tation and marketing Actions taken in
one functional division may affect the
operations of another The solution of
a problem may be found partly in
one division and partly in another.
There may be choice of solutions,
one affecting one division, another af-
fecting some other division.
ITO correlate the functional activi-
ties so that the proper quantities of
the proper kinds and qualities of prod
ucts are at the proper places at the
proper time, the division Of petroleum
supply has been created.
This division will be fully informed
as to the military and civilian require
ments for petroleum products, and the
sources and availability of supplies.
The division will be responsible for
determination of the character and
extent Of changes in production. trans
portation, refining and marketing &C
tivities which affect quantity, charac-
ter and location of supplies. The func-
tional divisions will devise and carry
into effect the operating plans re-
CURED to effect such changes.
Mr.. Minckler comes to the co-ordi-
nator's staff from his duties with the
General Petroleum Corp. of California,
with which he was connected since
July, 1924, when he went to work in
the comptroller's department. A large
part of his work was involved with
statistical study. In 1884, he became
to the president of the COM
pany. He was also a member of the
board of directors and chairman Of
the companys supply committee.

CHROME ORE IN
WYOMING WILL
BE- DEVELOPED

WASHINGTON Senator OGaho.
ney, democrat, wyoming, disclosed that
the Metals Reserve Corp. has giver
premilinary approval Of a plan for a
large chrome ore development at Cas-
per- Wyo.
OAdahoney said the plan might pos
sibly be acted upon finally next week
1t would provide for construction of
a mill at the foot Of Casper mountain
to produce more than 10000 tons of
concentrates a year, he asserted.
The disclosure was made in a tele-
gram ONdahoney sent to Oscar Chap
man, assistant secretary of interior,
who is conducting a meeting Of Wyo-
ming and South Dakota mining ex-
perts at the State university at Lara
mic, Wyo.
He also told Chapman he had been
informed by Charles Henderson, chair
man of the Reconstruction Finance
Corp, that the RFC was sending an
engineer and credit specialists to con-
fer at Casper with W. F. WilkerSon
state director for the war production
board, on the possible utilization Of
Wyoming facilities for war work.
He said he had been assured by
Donald Nelson, WPB chief, that in
Nelson's opinion it was "of the utmost
Importance to cooperate for the maxi
mum production Of raw materials"

SAYS
Motor Starter Location

The necessity Of locating both the
motor and the starter IN approximately
the same ambient temperature lam
bent means the temperature Of the
air surrounding the equipmenD is
quite apparent when you stop to think
about it. Yet, many starters are To-
Gated incorrectly because the function
of a starter was not understood
For example, assume that a motor
driving a stoker is located in a boiler
room which is always warm regardless
of outside temperature. The starter
for this motor. however, is installed
in an outside unheated entrance where
it is 40 below zero. Assume too, that
slate, rock, or other foreign objects
in the coal used in the stoker, over
loads the motor which increases the
current drawn from the line. This in
creased current flows through the
starter heaters and generates addi-
tional heat. Normally this extra heat
would cause the bi-metal strip to bend
to trip out the starter, but in this
case, the low air temperature sur
rounding the starter cools the bi-metal
strip as fast as the extra current in
the heater can heat it. Therefore, the
starter does not trip off and the motor
will burn out
However, assume that this same
stoker were driven through an extend
ed shaft so the motor could be located
outside, where the air temperature
surrounding it is the same as for the
starter. Then the motor could carry
considerable overload without burning
out because the extra heat in the
motor caused by the overload is dis
sipated by the low ambient temper
ature If the overload reaches a dan
gerous point, the starter would trip
out and stop the motor
A difference in ambient temperature
between the starter location and the
motor location, may be partially COM
pensated by using different heaters.
If the starter is in a colder location
than the motor, use a heater with
smaller ampere rating than called for
by the actual full load motor current.
If the starter must be in a location
warmer than the motor, larger heat
er may be used but this method should
be avoided whenever possible.
The practice of leaving starter doors |
open is just as bad as leaving all the |
lights on when visiting your Jill" 1t
defeats the purpose. The heat from
the heaters flows out the door instead |
of working on the bi-metal strip which |
your motor Also, the dust
and dirt which accumulates is sure /
to cause starter trouble.

MURRAY ASKS
HIGHER PRICE
FOR MANGANESE

WASHINGTON-S Senator Murray OF
Montana has asked the war production
board to sanction a raise in the pro-
duction unit price Of manganese as an
incentive to small producers.
With ]. Carson Anderson, secretary
of the American Manganese Producers
association, of Washington. D. c., Muir
ray called on Chairman Donald Nell
son Of the war production board.
Nelson assured him, he reported, that
a nationwide survey of the manganese
situation would be made with view
to consideration of the senator's rec
ommendation.
Pointing out that erection Of a s21.-
600 900 manganese plant in Minnesota
was contemplated, Murray said it
would be two years before it could
bring forth manganese production.
Meanwhile, he said, ore producers in
Montana would be turning out their
product if the production unit price
now about 80 cents, were increased
to 81.
Ores in Minnesota, he said, average
only 8 percent manganese, while those
in Montana deposits average 20 per-
cent and higher.
He discussed with Nelson establish
ment of a manganese mill at Philips
burg, and was informed that the WPB
and Metals Reserve Co. ordered a sur
vey of manganese ores in the area.
The senator said that when the
surveys were completed the WPB
would announce the size and type Of
mill ito be located at Philipsburg."
"Since it is estimated that the ore
from the major government plants will
cost more than 81 a unit" Murray said
in a memorandum left with Nelson, /
why should the government not pay
to small producers, not requiring gov
eminent plants, 81 per unit $40 a tom .
for ores running 40 percent and above
in manganese and let widespread pro-
duction in the United States start
without delay?"
Meanwhile, Representative O'Connor T.
of Montana received word from the
Metals Reserve Co. Of the Reconstruct
ton Finance Corp. indicating that the
M. r. c. expected a considerable ton
mage of chrome ore to be handled
from the Boulder river area east Of
Livingston, Mont, in the next two
years. The corporation asked for in
formation on roads in that area from
chrome deposits to Livingston and to
Big Timber, Mont.

GOLD MINERS
GET CONCESSION
ON PRIORITIES

BUTTE@In confirmation Of tele-
grams received on Thursday by H
Lowndes Maury Of the Broadway Con-
solidated Mines, Neihart, Mont, JOS
eph Yob, Philipsburg Mining Co.
Philipsburg and U. v. Brown of the
Bunker Hill & Sullivan Mining g. Con-
centrating Co, Kellogg, Idaho, cover
ing a modification of the priority re-
strictions on companies producing 80
percent or more Of their values in
gold and silver, a letter has been re-
ceived by Carl j. Trauerman. secre-
tary-manager Of the Mining Associa-
ton of Montana, signed by DR.. Wilbur
A. Nelson, administrator Of the mining
branch of the War Production Board.
Dr. Nelson indicated at the Denver
meeting that he would probably make
the decision that mines in the afore-
mentioned category producing appre-
ciable amounts Of strategic minerals
and those producing Siliceous ores for
necessary smelter fluxing purposes In
addition to gold and silver, would re-
ceive priorities in obtaining supplies
and machinery.
At the Denver meeting on March IA,
Governor Carr of Colorado asked DR..
Nelson to sign a statement to this
effect, which DR.. Nelson did not do.
Therefore the signed statement re-
ceived by the Mining Association Of
Montana practically covers the request
Of Governor Carr and is a distinct con-
cession granted to mine operators
through the efforts of mine operators
and the mining associations in the
various western states.
Messrs. Maury, Yob and Brown were
appointed as a committee to wire DR..
Nelson the night of March 16, at the
meeting held to confer with oscar L.
Chapman, assistant secretary Of the
department of interior, and his staff
at the School Of Mines on Monday
last. The text Of the telegram has
already been published In these col
iu11ns and it asked for a modification
Of the order Of March 2 by DR.. Nelson,
taking away previous high priorities
Of mines whose production value Of
gold and silver was 30 percent or more.

I'VE will have rotary kilns set up
every few miles so that we don't have
to move shale very far and then all
the shale is dried and after that we
screen out the large nodules and wash
the fine ones out" said Andrew Leith,
chief of WPB's manganese division.
I'VE take the nodules to stock piles,
and from there, when needed, it goes
20 blast furnaces-Gary, Ind, Pitts
burgh, or maybe even at st. Louis or
Duluth"
Leith said low cost methods Of pro-
ducing so percent concentrate at the
mine site had not yet been discovered
and meanwhile it was intended to
blend the low-grade ore with manga
nese of higher concentrates at the
same time experiments were continu-
ing and better concentration methods
may be developed, he said.
Under the present plan 100000 tons
of nodules would be produced annual
". These would contain 16 percent
metallic manganese compared with 48
percent commercial manganese.
Unless a metallurgical process de-
velops to reduce the cost of processing
the low-grade ore, Representative Case
said it is planned to blend the South
Dakota ore with high-grade ore from
Montana, Minnesota and Nevada, some
of which runs above go percent-to get
a as percent manganese.
Case reiterated that during the past
few weeks he had been hunting for
cheap source of pyrites located where
freight rates would be cheap to permit
processing Of the ores at Chamberlain.
