Sept. 15 (IB New cliff dwellers have returned to the Rocky mountains the U.S. Bureau of Mines men who have solved how to get oil cheaply out of shale. The bureau has discovered how to assure the United States of enough gasoline for centuries by making shale oil at a cost no more than petroleum. The main secret is new mining methods developed in the cliffs. Instead of using ladders, these modern cliff men go up in bull dozers, 30-ton trucks, electric shovels, compressors that have 12 wheels side by side and tower trucks resembling fire apparatus. These huge machines climb a five-and-a-half mile, hairpin turn road up the side of a moun tain to sheer cliffs of colored marblestone shale at 8200 feet al titude. There they drill a corri dor big as a church straight into the solid rock, and spend their careers quarrying vast rooms deep back in the rock. Many new mining techniques have been developed. Now one man produces more than 100 tons of broken rock a day where a few years ago the limit was said to be six tons. For a century the one big thing that made shale oil too expen sive was the cost of getting out the rock. The great Colorado deposit Is thousands of feet thick. Utah and Wyoming have similar rich de posits. Other oil shales are scat tered all over the United States and Alaska. River, red ribbon.

More Veterans Will Use State School Benefits Indications point to a consid erable increase In numbers of veterans who will use state edu cational benefits to help pay their way through college this year, Edward T. Taggart, educa tional officer for the Oregon De partment of Veterans' Affairs, announced this week. A survey of state and inde pendent colleges by Taggart dis closed that school officials expect more veterans to apply for bene fits under the state program starting this year because their GI benefits are running out. While state veterans' benefits are smaller than those paid un der the federal program, more than 3,000 Oregon ex-servicemen have drawn state aid since 1945. Last school year's peak was in March when 529 students were on the active list for state benefits. Eligible Oregon veterans enrol led in full time undergraduate college studies this year can ex pect a $15 increase In state bene fits as the result of 1949 legisla tive action raising to $50 a month the amount payable to such stu dents. They must be enrolled for at least 12 credit hours in ac credited school of higher learn ing. The regular $35 monthly pay ments remain in force for grad uate students and those enrolled in high school, extension courses, and vocational and technical schools. To qualify under the state pro gram, the veteran must have re sided in Oregon for one year prior to active duty, must have served at least Six months after Sept. 15. 1940, and before Dec. A. F.
