next order of business will be
on legislation to guarantee Fed
Ieral employees against salary cuts
due to dowu-grading OF jobs.
The Tennessee Democrat
made the promise to Represen-
tative LesinSki, Democrat. of
michigan, who is sponsor of the
bill The committee is expected
Ito hold hearings on the measure
within the next few weeks.
| Mr.. Lesinski's measure would
guard Federal workers against
salary cuts when their jobs are
down-graded Since the Civil
Service Commission and Fed
ieral agencies continuously review
JOB duties and responsibilities,
down-gradings are fairly COM
mon. The contention of Mr.
'ILeslnSki and many other men,
bers of Congress is that Federal
employees are entitled to pro-
lection against cuts in salary
when their jobs are down-grad-
ed through no fault of their
own.
Asked by the committee tt

Service Commission said it wa,

However, the committee viii

The measure should cleal

It's not too often that a
beauty editor and a science
writer have something in COM
mon to write about. Certainly
it's not the atomic bomb, either.
Such is the case, however,
with a new product, a spray
bandage that seals out dust,
dirt and bacteria. The non
toxic, non-irritating and non
sersitizing item now on the
market is an effective and
waterproof protective cover.
This is quite a boon to the
busy housewife who has her
hands in water. soap. and de-
tergents which may tend to
impede burn or wound healing.
Carrying on with her daily
chores is made easier by using
the spray bandage.

sion is much gayer and de-

PLAIDS of all colors and

Bismuth Mine North of Nome Yielding lOO% Pure Metal Shows Increased Importance With
 Expected Increased Demand for Magic Metal

mineral expansion has been given, usually in the form of De- fense Minerals Exploration Ad- ministration matching loans, for a number of strategic minerals; also, liberal financial aid from the U. s. to mines in foreign countries has been given.
 The native bismuth deposit near here, however, is having to struggle along as best it can on private capital. That is very diff cult in Alaska's present high priced economy but it is barely possible, according to local min ing men, that it will succeed.
 Fortunately-and this flies in the face of the ample stockpile" argument-the price of bismuth has scared in recent years and shows no sign of dropping.
 During World War II it was begged at SIPS a pound; when controls were lifted. it was the only metal whose price went up. In July, 1946 it sold for $1.6O a pound; by December, 1946, it's price was $1.80 a pound.
 Throughout 1948 and 1949 bis muth sold for g a pound; in 1850 it went to $2.25 a pound and has stayed there ever since.
 Private users of bismuth, in- cluding the Atomic Energy Com mission have been beating path to this lonesome and distant out post of the continent, assuring local miners that every pound of bismuth they can find will be purchased.
 The native bismuth near here -at Charley Creek, a tributary of the Sinuk River was dis

covered by John Dahl and Louis Erickson in 1902. They undertook exploration and development but gave up in 1908 for lack of suf- ficient price and market.
 Work was resumed in 1851 by two old-time Nome prospectors, Oscar Margraf and Ignacy Kow- alski They formed a company, Native Bismuth, Inc, and began further exploration.
 They have now established that the mineralized bismuth zone at Charley Creek is at least 900 feet long and TOO feet wide-and it probably extends much farther than those limits.
 A number of open cuts on the hilly terrain have been made, ex- posing the almost chemically pure bismuth in the underlying schist. A 54-foot tunnel has been driven, and will soon be extended
 Hydroelectric power is avail able from a nearby stream, whose upper level flow can be diverted into a pipe for a drop of several hundred feet into a Pelton wheel with attached cleo tric generator.
 "In the old days we did our mining of gold by shoveling sand and gravel into a sluice box on the Nome beach," laughs Mr. Mar graf, who is 82 years old. Today we have to be engineers to mine biSmuth."
 Even so, Seward Peninsula, one one of the most highly mineral ized areas of the continent, now gives promise of brighter mining days-not with the glint of yellow gold, but of silver-like bismuth.

May Be Opportunities For Coal Strip Mining In Homer District

WASHINGTON, 1.-Two small areas on lower Deep Creek, in the Homer, Alaska, district, offer pos abilities for coal strip mining op- erations, the Geological Survey says in a report made public this week.
 Onthe other hand, field work the past two summers in four localities of the Little Susitna district, of the Matanuska coal field, show the coal to be below minimum standards in both thickness and quality for mining under present conditions, another report says.
 The Homer district report says that an essentially horizontal" bed of lignitic coal, about feet thick, was found to underlie at least 28 acres of low stream ter race, beneath 10 to 25 feet of over burden.
 Tn the Little Susitna area, pre- vious geological mapping had shown at least 40 square miles underlain by coal-bearing rock and a small strip mine has been operated at Houston, in the west ern section for several years.
 But bulldozer and power auger work at the most promising local ities the past two years have failed to indicate that coal mining there would be a good venture, the report concluded.
