Army Munitions Blast
lin Illinois Shakes
| Paris Of 3 States
BY the Associated Press

SAVANNA, Ill, Jan. "a yio-
lent explosion Of $50 tons Of anti
tank mines in an underground am
munition dump at the Army's big
ordnance depot near here last night
shook wide section of three States
and shattered windows in several
communities, some SO miles away.
There were no casualties.
Tremors were felt in a 100-mile
radius of Northwestern Illinois,
Southern Wisconsin and Eastern
Iowa following the blast, about
pm, which made a hole 100 feet
wide and SO feet deep.
Col. Eugene Regad, commanding
officer of the depot, which covers
several thousand acres 10 miles
north of here on the Mississippi
River, said no fire followed the ex-
plosion. However, other magazines
in the immediate area were dam
aged.
Col. Regad said the cause of the
blast had not been determined. In
Chicago, 5th Army Headquarters
attributed the blast to the explosion
Of a 105-millimeter shell in a
storage dump which exploded other
ammunition nearby.
Scores Of windows were broken
and houses and buildings jolted in
Savanna, community of 5000
population, and in Bellevue, Iowa
a town of 1.700 across the MISSISSIPPI
pi River. In downtown Moline, Ill.
so miles south, a plate glass win
dow was broken and at Peoria, Ill.
100 miles south, windows were
ratified.
Jack Miller, a civilian guard, was
within few hundred yards of the
exploding dump but he was not
injured. Mrs. Florence Walker, who
lives on a farm near the depot
proving grounds, said the blast was
zone great big jar" She said some
neighbors told her the explosion
had lifted them from their beds
One eyewitness in nearby Sabula
Iowa, said he saw a huge ball oil
fire" followed by a "thunderous'
blast.
About 1000 Army and civilian
employees work at the depot, but
only patrols are on night duty.

The T raveIer's; Notebook
Scribblnes About Touring Places and Events

In a miniature booklet entitled
Information for Visitors to Bri-
tain,P the British Travel Associa-
ton has this to say about tipping
"The question of tips is one that
often causes embarrassment, not
only to visitors but to Englishmen
as well. Some hotels add 10 to Is
per cent to the amount of the bill
to cover tipping, but. this would not
include restaurant tips, which may
be reckoned on the same approxl-
mate scale. Ten per cent Of one
pound is 2 shillings (about 40
cents, and If restaurant bill came
to 2 pounds, a suitable tip would
be S shillings. Sixpence "a dime)
is suitable tip for short trip by
taxi and l shilling for a porter
who has carried bag and put it
on a taxi, though in his case the
tip would be suited to the amount of
luggage he had carried, The correct
tip for the hall porter in hotel is
a personal affair and will depend on
the services he has rendered. It
should be borne in mind that he is
one of the senior members OF the
staff"
French tourist interests are trying
to put across the idea that, while
French Mediterranean resorts are
among the smartest in the world,
prospective visitors need not feel
that they are beyond reach of the
average budget: that away from
the glitter of Cannes and Nice, the
tourist will find little towns like
Vallauris, where Picasso is busy
making pottery; Sanary, village
noted for fish hunting; Grasse, the
great flower and perfume center;
Cagnes, the artists colony, and AK
Provence, favorite vacation

Ancient Cars to Chug

sored by the Antique Automobile
Club of America.
This will be the 40th anniversary
of the 1908 Glidden Tour to Bedford
Springs, and some so ancient auto
mobiles and $50 eager riders will
make the trip under conditions
much changed from those encount-
cred at the turn Of the century.
Accounts of the 1908 tour speak
of the roads in and around Bedford
Springs as "the worst in these United
States" AS this years caravan
bowls along over the Pennsylvania
Turnpike they may breathe a col
lective sigh of relief that the tire
car, which will follow the partici-
pants, as it did in 1908, will prob
ably be along simply for the ride.
Similarly. the Red Cross car,
which accompanied the 1908 tour
will provide more atmosphere this
year than first aid.
The tourists will arrive at Bedford
in the late Afternoon of October
II, spending the 18th at the hotel
and cranking (or getting steam up
on) their vehicles for the exodus on
the morning of the 18th.

$4,000 More Acres For
HOmeSteddS
in Wyoming

COME IS, 900 acres of good irrigable farm
~ lands in central and northern Wyoming
are yet to be opened for homesteading some
time before 1858, according to present plans
of the bureau of reclamation.
Land opening possibilities on the River
ton project total about 10000 acres sched-
uled for demonstrating some time before
1853. Another $4,000 acres remain for home
steaders on the Heart Mountain project,
with nearly II, 900 acres ready this summer
and an additional 1000 acres to be ready
some time after 1913.
Homestead units containing approximate
1y $500 acres of irrigable land were opened
for settlement during the summer on the
bureau of reclamation's Riverton project in
central Wyoming. Veterans of World war 2
are given preference of application for the
available farm units.
The Riverton project, in Fremont county,
was authorized in 1919. Construction of the
irrigation features was started in 1920 and
water was available for irrigation in 1925.
Irrigation water for the project lands is di-
verted from the Wind river by a concrete
diversion dam, located about IS miles up
stream from Riverton, Wyo. The Wyoming
canal, with a capacity of 1900 second-feet,
heads at the diversion works and carries the
irrigation water to the project lands.
Principal storage for Rfverton project is
provided by Bull lake reservoir, located up
stream from the diversion works and off
the main stream of the Wind river. Nine
miles from its head, the Wyoming canal is
diverted through a drop to the 1,600-kilo-
watt Pilot Butte powerplant and then into
the Pilot Butte reservoir, where the water
is regulated for use in the remainder of the
Wyoming canal and the Pilot canal.
The initial postwar opening of public
lands to homestead entry on the Riverton
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-09-15

reclamation project was announced by the
secretary of the interior in July, 1947. The
area opened, about $500 acres, was divided
into SIS farm units. Applications for the
lands were received from World war 2 vet
Grams residing in 81 states and the District
of Columbia. A public drawing to establish
priority of selection for the available units
was conducted at Riverton on Dec. 4, 1947.
Homesteaders began moving to the project
soon after the first Of the year and nearly
all of the units are now under cultivation
During 1947, the operating portions of the
project, containing about 4 1880 acres, pro-
duced a new high in gross crop value. The
lands Under cultivation, 49, 500 acres, pro-
duced crops valued at $3.50, 900, or an av-
erage of about $61.15 an acre. Commercial
beans and sugar beets were planted on
about IL, 800 acres and both crops brought
an average return in excess of 500 an acre.
At present, construction contracts total
ing more than 81 1000 900 are in force on the
irrigation features of the project and addi-
tional contracts will be awarded as soon as
practicable. The contracts in force are con-
fined primarily to extensions to the Wyo-
ming canal and other canal and lateral sys-
TENS. These contracts will make possible
the opening of additional lands on the
project.
1t is anticipated that during 1949 about
so units, containing approximately $500
acres of land, will be available for settle
ment. During 1850, it is planned that irri-
cation water will be available for another
$4,000 acres of land. More than $1,000 acres
will be opened for settlement during 1851
and 1852.
Heart Mountain Division
Bureau activities are also being pushed
to make possible the opening of about 10000
acres-included in SO farm units-on the
Heart Mountain division of the Shoshone
reclamation project in northwestern Wyo-
ming.
The first opening of Heart Mountain lands
was announced in the fall of 1916 and con-
tanned 1920 acres, included in SO homestead
units. In 1947 the second opening of 81 farm
units and 3,215 acres was announced (Mon-
