The mu ti-million-dollar Fairless Steel Works in Morrisville is having a tremendous effect on the growth of Greater Philadelphia. More than 50.000 persons are living in lower Bucks County to day because of the L'. S. Steel Corporation plant s influence in the area. Many residents have no connection with the firm but are engaged in business which were created indirectly. Since steel production began in December, 1952, output has often exceeded normal capacity. Rumors that the firm will ex pand beyond its original 3,800 acre site have been denied by U. S. Steel officials. However, there is much speculation that satellite plants using steel will be attracted to the area. The number of such plants has not been large, but it is believed that growth will occur over a period of years. Montevideo Council Favors Helicopters Montevideo, Uruguay (U.R) The City Council Friday ap proved in principle the estab lishment of a helicopter trans portation service in the Monte video metroplitan area. The project includes construc tion of several heliports in vari ous parts of the city. Preparatory excavation is un der way for installation of a series ef louvre-type fish sereens over turbines, and fish ladder im provements at tb.e Ideal Cement company nyoroeiectric plant near the Sam's Valley highway in the Gold Hill area. ' The project, estimated to cost in excess of $150,000, will in clude installation of a traversing trash rake, six fish screens and a discharge section in the fish ladders, company officials said. The reinforced concrete and steel screens will be built in a V shape. The wide part of the V, officials explained, will face up stream. As the fish swim to the bottom of the V. they will be carried to a 48-inch concrete pipe through which they will travel past the plant and to the river. Buried Pipe . . The pipe will be buried about 12 feet below the water level and will start under the bottom step of the fish ladder. Debris disposal racks will also be installed to keep the louvres clear of foreign material and expedite movement of the fish. Company officials said the pro ject has been approved by the fish and game commission and the federal department of wild ine. etas nave Been called on the job and will be opened on June 25. The job is expected to be fin ished by next fall. The power plant will be shut off and the canal drained during the con struction. Important Project Sportsmen in this area have long felt that such a project is second in importance only to the installation of fish screens at Savage Rapids dam. Both have been blamed for considerable destruction of fish life in the Rogue river, cutting far into possible fish runs, and both spoiling sport and lessening the attraction of the Rogue for out-of-state fishermen and tourists. Screen of Savage Rapids dam's turbines and canals will be done provided the public works bill, now before the Senate, passes without change. An appropria tion of $208,000 is included in the House-approved version of the bill to construct the screens. Rainfall Exceeds Last Year's Total Rainfall in the Rogue valley between September, 1955, and May 31 this year has exceeded the average for the period by 15.71 inches, weather observers at the Medford airport weather station reported Saturday.
