MEDFORD MAIL. TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 194T. PAGE FP7B WESTERN POWER BE MINING BOOK Three Million Kilowatts From Three Big Projects, Due In 1945, Miners Told. San Francisco, Oct. 1. (flV The far west will have more than 3,000,000 kilowatts of pow er from the government's three big power developments by 1945, and a big boost in mineral pro duction as a result, Ivan Block, Bonneville power salesman told western miners today. Block is chief of the market development section of the Bon neville power administration. He told the American Mining con gress that Bonneville, Grand Coulee and Boulder Canyon would contribute nearly one . filth of the present water power capacity of the United States, Because of this power. Block said, mineral development is coming rapidly to the west. He estimated that by the end of next year the west would hive half the nation's magnesium production and 30 per cent of the aluminum output. Magnesium Prospects Even more production of mag nesium may come to the west, Block figured, as production plans so far worked out do not cover the 300,000 tons required for defense industries. "A major portion of addi tional magnesium capacity not yet allocated may find its way to the west coast, he observed. Impact of this development. Block said, "may force estab lished industry in other sections of the country to revise some of its somewhat static and ante dated ideas of what can be done profitably within the very best concepts of social progress.

I F V0ICEDBY NAVY Announced Policy of De fense Cooperation N o t Adhered To SaVS Official Seattle. Oct. I. (IP) The navy warned the American Fed eration of Labor metal trades de partment in convention here Tuesday that there was a serious discrepency between its an nounced policy of cooperation during the national emergency and the actual condition of con tinuing strikes and strike threats. The statement, written especi ally for the convention by Ralph Bard, assistant secretary of the navy, was read to the conven tion by Lieut. Comdr. George M. Keller. It bluntly questioned the ability of the metal trades unions to control their member ships. The criticism was voiced Just before the convention recessed to discuss the threatened walk out of welders here and at Ta coma Monday to enforce de mands not against their employ ers but against the AFL. Crisis Emphasised Declining to submit "any soft soap or pap" to the metal trades convention, the assistant secre tary's statement warned that in the opinion of the navy, the army and the president, the na tion "has never faced a greater crisis than at present." "Our country is in deadly peril, real danger, the worst it has ever faced, and the brunt of that danger will be felt first by the navy," the statement added. Recalling that the metal trades department last January 1 adopted a solemn pledge there would be no work stoppages on national defense production (a pledge reaffirmed yesterday by President John P. Frey), Bard s statement asserted that: "Despite this, something is still lacking in your membership and response to your leadership, How is it that we have strikes and threat of strikes? Bard wrote that on September 20 there were 24 strikes on pro jects involving naval contracts and that five of them were by metal trades unions. "No month since January," he added, "has been free of strikes involving your membership." Helping Hitler "Hitler," the assistant secre tary warned, "is not engaged in innocent fun," and "every work stoppage plays right into Hit ler's hands. un.Tr.nMmT WARD 1 v Sh aroun, Compare WoTU MT Ward's Hockey and Figure v A Ml I ' ! bTJf jj moke.1 Sm hew much Word fW 3vVS ;ml SB y ..--j ; sstEL mm sl 0 "Why, then are your people willing to strike and to threaten to strike? "What explanation are we to assume for a condition like this? There is an inability indicated that your leaders can't control the membership, or there is in dication that members are de liberately trying to hamper na tional defense production. The statement suggested that "if the men in the industrial plants and navy yards, building our ships, can learn and under stand how the men who will man the shins feel about tWs, per- hfcps you can have more success. Hive us M1V snips auu buik ment, and we will take them where they will do the most good. But we can't do that, if the men in the shipyards delay production. "It must not be said of this country, that we did too little and were too late."
