POWER Unit Is
RECOMMENDED
Murray Wires War Production
Board Favors Finishing
Portion of Plant.
Still Must Have Final
Approval of War Secretary
Before Construction.

Another chapter in the long series
concerned with Fort Peck power was
written last week when Sen. James
Murray of Montana wired the Glas-
gov Chamber of Comerce that the
war production board, in control OF
all priority ratings, has recommend
ed installation of "one unit" of the
power plant.
The recommendation, he added,
must also have approval of the sec
rotary of war and he will advise
the Chamber of action there.
Contract for erection of the power
plant and installation of turbines,
generators and other equipment was
awarded to the FegleS Construction
company of Minneapolis last winter.
Most of the work on the equipment
already has been completed, it is
understood. The Fegles contract is
in excess of 81, 500, 900, with some
probable additional expense.
Recently, local men heard that
WPB was holding up the contract
because of the large amount of steel
involved, principally to be used in
building the 209 -foot-high surge
tanks. They then wired Montana's
congressional delegation. resulting
in the reply received from Senator
Murray.
The two generator units contem-
in the contract are of $4,000
and $4,000 kilowatts and the tele-
gram did not state which was rec
commended.
After being dormant, the power
project was revived last fall, after it
was stated that electrical energy
would be needed in western Montana
and elsewhere for war industries.
Eventually, the power is to be used

leloped or to be developed by the
