Economic and Political Barriers Still Stop

titive with imported chromite ores
of comparable quality. Barriers to
the general use of Montana chomite
ore concentrates are:
%. The existing freight rate
structure for minerals and mineral
products does not permit establish
ment of a freight rate on chromite
from Montana low enough to permit
competition in eastern manufactur-
ing centers with chromite imported
at low steamship rates.
(2). There is not yet a substantial
western market for chromite.
(3). Most steel manufacturers see
no reason for changing to a process
for making stainless steel from low
ratio chromite ore so long as i'm
ported high-ratio ore is cheap and
abundant.
az. The refractories industry,
which normally consumes three
eighths of the chromite used in the
U. S., has not yet found Montana
chromite satisfactory for its pur-
pose.
(5). The attitude of many Off
Gals in the federal government is
that the chromite deposits in the
Saltwater Complex should not be
mined, but should be held as a
stockpile in place against some flu
ture emergency.

Utilization of the large bodies of
chromite ore developed in the Still
water Complex in Montana is now
technically feasible, although there
are still certain economic and polit-
ical barriers, according to a report
by John M. Conrow, geologist of
the Montana bureau of mines and
geology, published in the February
issue of De Re Metallica, Montana
School of Mines magazine. Conrow'
recently made a tour of the alloy
steel producing industries of the
east and middle west and this arti-
Gle embodies his findings. In brief
summary they are as follows:
Rustless Iron and Steel corpora
ton, Baltimore, Md, is now making
stainless steel from low chromium
to-iron-ratio ore similar to the Mon
tana product, and Montana ore could
be used in the rustless process. The
rustless process is a radical depart
from the standard processes for
manufacturing stainless steel by the
use of ferro-chromium made from
imported high COMMUNICATIONS
chromite ore. Chromium Min
ing and Smelling Corporation, Ltd,
Sault Ste. Marie, Canada, has been
making Chrom-X from Montana
Chrom-X is an exother-
mic ferro-chromium alloy used in
the manufacture of low-chromium
alloy steels. Manufacturers of
chemical products also
state that Montana chromite would
work well for their purposes.
Chromite from the Saltwater
Complex might be generally used by
he alloy-steel and chromium chem
cal manufactures if it could be
made available in the eastern manu-
,acturing centers at a price compe-

point-blank range. The crew could
clearly see the explosions from the
ships shells as her guns smashed
pillboxes, gun emplacements, ware
houses and trench Notifications.
The ships anti-aircraft gunners
fought off deadly air assaults dur
ing the b~ombardment period, and on
one occasion only skillful maneuver
ing of the vessel by her command
ing officer saved her from a torpedo
which had been dropped.
At n time a Jap "Zeke" bomber,
pursued by two U. S. navy planes,
came within range of the ships

another closely had the satisfac-

day, the big ships primary target
area had been captured and she
was free to lend her powerful sup
port against other enemy held
