House Mining
 Committee Asks Ore Stockpiling

HALEY, Idaho, (P) - Estab- liShment of more ore purchasing depotS throughout the west was advocated by Rep. Ken Regan D-Texas) chairman of the House Mines and Mining subcommittee.
 'Stockpiling of ore is a good answer to the .reactivation of old mines and the development of new oneS," he told reporters. If the miner knew he had long range prOgram-5 years or So- we could develop a considerable Stockpile of strategic and needed minerals.
 Expansion of the present pur- chasing depots is really the an- swer. Instead of trucking his ores long distances to smelters, the miner would have a nearby, ready market"
 Began indicated that an in crease in the number of govern ment purchasing depots would be the most likely result to come from a two = day congressional hearing into the problem. It was one of the principal requests made by small mine operators.
 However, Began said he didn't see any way to meet another re- quest - tn a the government "grubstake" prospectors in re- turn for an interest in any ores they discovered.
 Began predicted that Congress would approve the full $40,000,- 900 requested by the administra- ton for mine exploration loans, adding that he thought defense materials procurement agency would be able to commit that much within a year

LETTERS TO THE
 EDITOR
TO THE EDITOR:

fully intended to answer your very well written editorial of last week with one of my very best, however, last night after council meeting l was kept busy most ot the night clearing up trouble on hospital lines, and since women having babies, sickness. accidents, fires etc. have been my chief con- cern for so long, l am unable to break the habit 90 had to forgo the pleasure for this week.
 l will only say that proposal submitted to Palmer City Coun- Gil on September l9 was intended to specifically include complete, modern telephone service to Pal mer and the entire Valley, from Wasilla to Jonesville to Eklutna and as far beyond these points IS telephones are needed; at any rate, to cover the entire area served by M. E. A. We are able to carry out this proposal.
 While Palmer has been going thru her growing pains since in corporation, much has been ac- complished The road commission has resumed work on streets so that now we are able to put up our saddle horses and use auto mobiles with safety again.
 A group of very civic minded business men have underwritten a loan to the Coop so we can hope for water this winter.
 During the time these many fine people have been concen- trating on improving Palmer, l., too, have been busy and have succeeded in securing financial backing sufficient to assure the entire Valley telephone service, second to none.
