NEW YORK ( Oils and
steels helped pull the stock mar
ket higher Wednesday after a
hesitant start.
Gains ran to a point or two at
the best, in late afternoon but
here were numerous small losers
throughout the list.
Volume approximated 2.400,000
shares for the day. That com
pares with 2,580,000 shares traded
Tuesday in a lower market.
HugeCanada
Smelter To
Be Fired Up
KEMANO, B. C. (A Furnaces
of the giant Aluminum Co. of Can
ada smelter 50 miles from here
will soon be fired by 420,000 elec
trical horsepower which will flow
from a great hydro-electric plant
built in the bowels of Mount Du
Bose. The story behind the power be
gan three years ago when the
company started to build a hydro
set-up that would light and power
a city the size of Vancouver. To
do it, contractors hollowed out a
mountain, made a river flow back
wards and built a huge lake.
The project was built at a cost of
38 lives 16 died In one plane
crash. But Ole Strandberg, project
manager for the contractors, con
siders that figure low "when you
think of the three-year job and
tlie 6,000 men employed on it."
The cost in money was 160 mil
lion dollars double the original
estimate.
' Now Karl Roestad, Norwegian
born resident engineer here for
i the Aluminum Co. of Canada, Is
v almost ready to throw the switches
r that will send power humming
" over a twisting 80-mile transmis
sion line to Kitimat. There it will
be used to blast aluminum metal
out of ore carried from the British
; West Indies.
As many as 6,000 men worked on
s the power project 400 miles north
of Vanoouver. They built a 20 mil
' lion-dollar dam across the Necha
' ko River 150 miles east of here.
Fart of the river became a 358-square-mlle
reservoir. The other
half was allowed to dry up.
A 10-mile tunnel, 25 feet high
and 11 feet wide, was punched
through 7,000-foot mount DuBose.
At the end of the tunnel near the
western side of the mountain a
huge cavern was scooped out for
the power house 1.400 feet under
, ground.
1; iThen the transmission line had
; to be built across mountains
amidst continuous snow. More thnn
one bulldozer and its operator slid
over the 3,000-foot cliffs. The line
rises from a low of 600 feet above
sea level to 5,000-foot-high Kildala
( Pass.
The tunnel from the reservoir
to the powerhouse was driven with
the help of 8 million pounds of
explosives.
Water moving through the tunnel
will drive three turbines already
installed. A fourth generator will
be put in when needed and four
more can be installed. Plans are
ready for another 10-mile tunnel
and more generators to double the
present output If the aluminum
market booms.
Wood Products
Tariff Raise
Approved
WASHINGTON i.n The House
Rules Committee Wednesday
cleared for House consideration
legislation aimed at hiking the im
port duty on hardboards.
The bill, sponsored by Reps. Col
mer (D-MIss), Scudder (R-Califi,
and Utt (R-Calif), would reclassify
hardboards, as wood projects rath
er than as paper products as now.
Import duty on wood products
run up to 33 '.'2 per cent compared
