REPORTS ON
MONT. CHR0MITE

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 political
barriers, according to report by
John NJ Conrow, geologist of the
Montana Bureau of Mines and Geo.
logy, published in the February issue
of DE RE METALIICA, Montana
School of Mines magazine Mr.. Con-
row recently made tour of the
alloy-steel producing industries of the
east and middle west and this article
embodies his findings. In brief sum-
mary they are as follows:
Rustless Iron and Steel Corpora
ton, Baltimore, Maryland, is now
making stainless steel from low
chromium-to-iron ratio ore similar to
the Montana product, and Montana
ore could be used In the Rustless
process. The Rustless process is a
radical departure from the standard
processes for manufacturing stainless
steel by the use of ferro-chromium
made from imported high chromium
to-iron-ratio chromite ore. Chromium
Mining and Smelling Corporation, Ltd.
Sault Ste. Marie, Canada, has been
making Chrom-x from Montana chrom-
ite Chrom-X is an exothermic ferro-
chromium alloy used in the manufac-
ture of low-chromium alloy steeIs.
Manufacturers of chromium chemical
products also state that Montana
chromite would work well for their
purposes.
Chromite from the Saltwater Conn
pick might be generally used by the
alloy-steel and chromium chemical
manufacturers if it could be made
available in the eastern manufacture
ing centers at price competitive
with imported chromite ores of COM
parable quality. Barriers to the gen
eral use of Montana chromite ore and
concentrates are:
/. The existing freight rate struc-
ture for minerals and mineral prod
ucts does not permit establishment of
a freight rate ON chromite from Mon
tana low enough to permit competi-
ton in eastern manufacturing centers
with chromite imported at low steam
ship rates.
2. There is not yet a substantial
western market for chromite.
8. Most steel manufacturers see no
reason for changing to process for
making stainless steel from low-ratio
chromite ore so long as imported high
ratio ore is cheap and abundant
4. The refractories industry, which
normally consumes three-eights Of the
chromite used in the U. S., has not
yet found Montana chromite salts
factory for it's purpose.
5. The attitude of many officials in
the federal government is that the
chromite deposits in the Saltwater
Complex should not be mined, but
should be held as stockpile in place
against some future emergency

Washington, d C..
My dear Senator:
I have received from you copy
of 1.-THE United States and the Peace
put out by the United States News
together with your covering letter.
am glad to get it and thank you for
sending it to me- The United States
News should thank you, too, for aiding
in its free distribution under your con-
gressional postal ranking privilege,
along with others whose Nazi and
Fascist literature you have aided in
distributing in the same postage-free
way.
Perhaps you are right in assuming,
as you do in your covering letter, that
compilation of other speeches and
documents of real importance is some
thing of a compliment to you, but it
seems more likely that the real pur-
pose is to enable readers to make COM
parsons and contrasts with speeches
by other senators on the same general
subject-Vandenber Connolly, Wiley
and Ferguson, at or near the same
time. If that is done it is not going
to enhance your reputation either as
a speaker or a patriot with the dis
eliminating. Such must reach the
conclusion that your speech was not
intended to be helpful in devising some
workable means whereby the world
may hereafter be reasonably free from
the scourge of war, but to put OBJ
stacles in the way of accomplishing
that most desirable purpose, and that
the characterization of your speech as
that of IAN irresponsible perfectionist
and an embittered isolationist' is on
the whole charitable estimate of its
quality and purpose. Considering the

Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have recently listened to one Of
Montana's ablest lawyers in opposition
to the establishment of the Columbia
Valley Authority The honor has been
extended to me of laying before you
some of the facts which convince me
that every effort possible from all OF
you should go toward the quick and
certain establishment of that Author
ity
When you, as jurors, listen to a
witness on the stand in an important
what interest the witness has in the
outcome of the case, and how we'll he
understands the subject of his evil
dence. With all respect and friendly
feeling for him who went before me
on this platform, 1 must tell you that
the Honorable Walter L. Pope for
some years has been one of the attor-
neys for the Montana Power Company
and for the Milwaukee Railroad Com
pany, and for a large lumber company.
This gives him intimate knowledge of
the subject of his discourse. He also
spoke of legal phases. He is also an
able lawyer 1t is not for any other
purpose than to persuade you that l
am as well acquainted with the facts
and the law as he is that tell you
few facts about my own life.
Starting about SO years ago, the law
firm of Maury and Templeman, of
which l was the head, were chief coun-
sci for the Power companies that were
merged into the Montana Power Com
pany. This employment lasted for
more than five years, and the Montana
Power Company was formed. We
continued as counsel for the Montana
Power Company for some time. Our
work was highly praised by our clients
but one day we were told that our
orders in the conduct of our work
would come from New York We pro-
tested and said that we had handled
the work for about six years with sue
cess, and that we would not be respon-
sible for their work if controlled by
some attorney whom we did not know
back in New York. When the Com
pany insisted that we should take or
ders from New York, we resigned, with
all friendship for the local people in
the Company. Ever since then | have
naturally followed the course of the
Montana Power Company. l might
add that having been active at the bar
for 48 years, l have had more cases
before our supreme court than any
other lawyer, living or dead.
| ask your pardon for telling you
some other personal facts: l own 1000
acres of irrigated meadow land, and
some cattle, in the Big Hole basin
For many years | have owned small
ties in this state. Three of our sons
and three of our daughters are grad
yates of the Montana university.
And now, with enough of the back
ground of myself as witness, l will
discuss the most serious question that
ever faced the people of the north
west-the establishment of the Column
bia Valley Authority, and as an Incl
dent to this discussion, the establish
ment of the Missouri Valley Authority
This question is not one of party
politics. l believe that the most hon
ored among statesmen of the Repub-
lican party of the last 40 years was

 Board Duties Y Fovors Improving A City Pension Low

Burton H. Walker, former Repub- lican aldermanic leader. intends to seek his former seat on the alder manic board this fall and If elected will seek improvement on the re- cently-passed City Pension law.
 MT. walker said Waterbury can secure a sound pension bill on the books only ''by electing 8 new city government"
 '"They are saying the act is a good beginning and can be im- proved in two years. Well, doubt it." he added. If the administra- ton wanted a good law why didn't Its leaders demand such an act in the first place rather than sneak up to Hartford and have the soundness written out of the actuary's bill during the last days of the General Assembly," MT. Walker asked.
 T am also disappointed in the governors signing of the bill," he declared. "If 1t wasn't a good bill it should have been thrown in the waste basket"
 MT. Walker specifically doesn't like the way the administration ''resorted to Q charter change to give certain elected and appointed ofIicials, whose salaries are fixed by law, the $500 cost-of- living bonus, while declining to say how long this emolument will be continued for other employees"
