PATTERN LACK
MAY CAUSE LOSS
IN OIL OUTPUT

Montana oil producers are afraid
that the state Of Montana Is going
to be held up TO shame for possible
failure TO meet the governments rec
commended rate for daily production
during the month Of May, as q result
Of lack Of flush production.
Drilling has been at virtual Stand-
still. despite favorable weather, since
December when the WPB rules on wen
spacing went into effect. Not until this
week was a spacing pattern for Cut
Bank approved by the government and
Kelvin field has Just received a pattern
that win do little more than care for
natural decline.
The OPC has recommended IS 200
barrels per day for May and the state
did not even make its April allowable
Of 23.700. This was due In part to the
fact that Kelvin runs were held at q
minimum, The Texas Co. refinery at
Sunburst having been shut down for
the spring overhaul Other refiners
have shut down during the last so
days, likewise for spring repairs, with
the result that there has been con-
siderable gain in storage. The March
storage gain was about 10000 barrels.
Some hope had been expressed that
The Texas CO. might refill its storage
tanks at Sunburst during May, In
preparation for spring and summer
capacity operation but Texas Co. pro-
duction has now moved past 100000
barrels per month-up 10000 barrels
from its average Of previous years. No
suggestion has been given that Texas
Co intends to open Kelvin field to
capacity, as has been done In some
years.
There is some / 500 to 1850 barrels
Of additional production available I'M
Kelvin field among producers who are
selling around 90 percent. While there
Is said TO be demand for spot oil from
Canada, this reserve production is not
available as operators are unwilling toi
break connections to serve a temporary
spot market.
Operators are fearful, however, that
failure to produce the recommended
volume will possibly result In future
curtailment in the states allowable and
nullify the advantage Of getting ex-
ceptions to the WPB order M-6S, re-
ferring to drilling pattern. A dozen
wells have been held up in Cut Bank
and possibly as many more in Kelvin
because Of the lack of an approved
spacing pattern.

DEMANDS RELIEF
FOR MINERS IF
WAR CONTINUES

WASHINGTON Senator McCarran
/ democrat, Nevada, told a special SEN
ate silver committee that unless Fl.
nancial relief was given to the meta
mining industry, war production soon
would lack such essentials as copper,
lead, zinc, manganese and tungsten.
Reporting to the committee on re-
cent subcommittee hearings at Reno,
Salt Lake City and Denver, the Ne
yadan said he would urge before the
senate finance committee, now con-
sidering tax legislation, that such
relief be given.
Senator johnson, Colorado, stated
that the treasury department favors
exemptions from excess profits tax
provisions Of bonuses being paid on
zinc, lead and copper production, on
the ground that taxation of such
bonuses would remove production ini-
tiative.
McCarran said that there is a dis
couraging' lack of development in all
mine operations of strategic minerals,
owing to labor difficulties, and urged
that depletion allowance should be
changed to give base period income
computed on the average of three out
of four base period years as compared
with three years in the 1910 revenue
bill.

ALASKAN ROAD
WILL OPEN UP
RICH TERRITORY

@Handicaps to the de-
velopment of the mineral resources Of
Alaska have held down the population
of that rich empire and left 1t a
prey to invasion. Washington bureau
Gratis are and have been largely re-
sponsible for the undeveloped state in
which Alaska is today. Conservation
policies as practiced in Alaska, had
they been employed in the pioneer
days would have left the west IN like
position today. With islands included
in Alaska territory now invaded by
the Japanese, there is speeding up
of the war program in Alaska to pre-
vent the Japs from overrunning that
land of undeveloped mineral wealth.
Military and aeronautical experts
are now emphasizing the crucial i'm
portance of Alaska to our tactical po-
sition in the Pacific war zone. Future
offensive action against Japan, they
say, is bound to take account of the
2, 547-mile air route from Dutch Har-
Dor to Yokohama, $50 miles shorter
than the distance from Pearl Harbor.
Alaskas susceptibility to attack by the
same route is matter of equal con-
Germ.
Analysts also observe that the great
est obstacle to the development of our
Alaskan defense establishments is the
5erritory's wholly inadequate system
If communications. Alaska's one rail-
-oad and few highways are entirely
within its own borders. The sea pas
sage requires eight days and is vul-
lerable to submarine and air attack.
To meet the essential need Of a
and connection, pioneer road Is
low being constructed by United
States army engineers through the
500 miles of wilderness which sep
rate Fort st. John, B. c., and Fair
,anks, Alaska.
The Alaskan highway, besides bring
ng new settlers to Alaska, may prove
o be the stimulus for an expanded |
Internal road system which will ex-
,edite the settlement and development !
f large new areas. 1t has been esti- |
mated that the territory could readily |
Import 100000 people. Thus both
trategically and economically, COM
lletion of the new roadway promises
o end Alaska's detachment from the
United States

Ton Of Coal TO
Make TEUO Barrels
OF Motor Fuel

New research IN the production Of
liquid motor fuels and lubricants from
coal by q process not hitherto inVes-
tigated In the United States has been
authorized In q recent appropriation
by congress to the Bureau of Mines.
The Fischer Tropsch method, de
veloped and now industrially operat-
ing in Germany, has a number Of ad-
vantages over the modified Bergius
INCORPORATION method which has been
investigated by the bureau for a num-
Der Of years. Both methods start with
coal, but the Fischer Tropsch process
gives number of the separated fuel
and lubricant products directly, while
the output Of the Bergius process is
a single nquefied coal which is fur
ther treated much like crude oil in
a regular refining process.
A further advantage of the new
method Is that much smaller plants
are economically possible, about 10000
tons a day against 10000 tons a day
for the Bergius process This enables
wider and safer distribution Of
plants. Also, the Fischer Tropsch
process requires less precision machin-
cry, and 1t can be used successfully
with almost any type of coal, while
certain Goals with high ash content
or extreme sensitivity to temperature
variations present serious operating
difficulties with the refrigeration
process.
Both processes produce about one
ton between $50 and 300 gaIlons) Of
liquid products from four to five tons
of coal

Oil Men Need
Not Lose Best
Men to the Army

Following conferences with Gov.
Sam c. Ford and members Of various
draft boards, James A. Johnson, presi-
dent of the Montana Oil & Gas Pro-
ducers association, has issued bulle-
tin to oil operators advising them to
make prompt application for defer
ment for critical employees engaged
In the oil business.
Such deferment is provided by gen.
eral practice for Essential industry
and the oil industry Is regarded as
essential to the war eI rprise. Proper
forms to be used by Mnployes in re-
questing deferments Can be obtained
from various local boards.

DEFINES MINE
.LESSEES UNDER
WAGE-HOUR LAW

NEW YORK-With speculative and
small enterprising mining greatly ex-
banded because Of the critical need
/ for metals in the war effort, L. Met
calfe Walling, administrator, wage
hour division, U. S. department of
| labor. defined the factors which de-
ternine whether mining lessees are to
be considered employees under the act
or bona fide independent operators.
In the typical lease under consider
alton the lessee is given only a small
portion of a mine to work, the block"
Of ground leased being usually cubic
space about 100 feet in each direction.
In some cases leases are given In
mines no longer operated by the les
sor; in others the lessor is engaged
in mining new unworked portions Of
the same mine. An increase In block
leases win result from the appeal of
the War Production Board for the
greatest possible increase in metal
mining, Walling has been advised.
The statement, which follows a
fact-finding conference of the industry
in Salt Lake City, continues the policy
announced by the administrator two
years ago of determining each case on
the degree of actual control exercised
by the lessor over the lessee, as well
as on the formal terms of the lease,
and sets forth five factors to be looked
for in a bona fide independent lease:
Lessee must not work under such
supervision OF lessor as would indi-
cate an employee employer relation;
the relationship is subject to special
ccv,,fiY,xy rvhera IescOr furnishes all mr.
most of the equipment; lessee must
select, hire and fire his own employees,
if any, and pay them and any social
or other taxes incident to
their employment; lessee must be free
to dispose of his ore without undue
disadvantage; and the lease must be
for a definite period Of not less than
six months and not be arbitrarily can
celable by lessor in case of a lucky
strike"

Mil for Blue
Dick Nine to Be
Erected Soon

STANFORD-M Much interest is being
centered on the Blue Dick Mining Co.
whose property is located about Is
miles southwest of Stanford. The COM
pany, with large number of claims,
last year shipped ore to East Helena
which brought satisfactory returns in
lead, zinc and silver.
A 50-ton mill is being sent out from
Denver and the building and founda-
