Sweetheart" Choice Made
By KUHS in Bond Contest
WASHINGTON, April 2 (JP)
The bureau of mines reports to
Senator McNary (R-Ore.) that
tests in the John Day area of
east central Oregon indicate that
there are 128,000 tons of chrom
ium ore In three areas.
The ore, the report said, will
test 20-25 per cent chromic oxide
but its strategic importance is
diminished by the low percent
: age of chormium In the principal
deposits.
Nevertheless, the bureau says.
Its availability is enhanced by
accessibility over "fairly good
truck roads." Also, the bureau
says, the ore may be worked by
open cut mining while develop
ments of underground opera
tions are in progress.
"Miracle," Says
Donald Nelson of
Nation's War Effort
CHICAGO, April 2 UP) The
nation s industry has performed
a "miracle of production" in the
war effort and the creative skills
of management and labor have
elevated America to a "height of
potential military power such as
the world has never before
, seen," says Donald Nelson, chair
man of the war production
board.
The WPB chief in an address
last night asserted that the coop
eration of business men and the
concentrated productive forces
of the nation's factories have re
sulted in many "dramatic"
, achievements in cost reduction.
He cited several instances and
said they were the "direct effect
of the mass production techni
ques and experience of American
Industry acquired in peacetime."

break loose, tons of dirt, gravel,
trees and brush cascaded toward
his vehicle.
