The senate pressed its early bills along with record speed, even to the extent of referring them to temporary committees before the standing committees were named with result that Senator Ward C. Holbrook's S. B. No. 10 was passed by the Senate Tuesday on second reading and now Is up for final passage. This bljl Is of Importance to every taxpayer In - the state and particularly to those in the outside counties because it changes the delinquent date for taxes from November 30 to December 20, the date to which some county commissions have been extending the delinquency date in the past. The . new bill makes the delinquency date uniform throughout the state and eliminates need for extensions practiced haphazardly heretofore. $3,000,000 fait Lake City Presentation to t''3 senate Monday by Governor Henry H.

Fewer and bigger plants were in order. Mills were built to concentrate ore preparatory to smelting By 1911 the dozens of little plants had coagulated into three The major smelting companies lead smelter of the American Smelting & Refining Co. was con structed at Murray Tn 1902, the plant of the United State S. R. A M. at Midvale in 1902, and that of the International Smelting Co. at Tooele in 1911. Flotation is now used in the treatment of lead zinc ores by the U. S. S. R. & M. Co., the International, the Combined Metals Reduction Co. at Bauer and the Silver King Coalition jnill at Park City. low-grad- e The merging of the smaller smelting companies into larger ones made profitable the production of ore theretofore too low! grade to mine and. smelt and actually Increased the demand, for workers. This is confirmed by figures compiled for DeccmbeL1935. . It places the number of tons of ore milled In zinc lead flotation plants at 52,000; tons of charge treated at lead smelters, 31,253; ions of coke used at lead smelters, 4,022; tons of coal used .at! lead smelters, 1,553; gallons of oil used at Typical Lead Smelter in Utah lead smelters, 4,7G2; feet of gaa used at lead smelters, 24,363,000; cost of supplies and equipment used, $135,033 G4; paid railroads for freight on products received and shipped, $262,839.95; men on payroll at lead smelters and lead-zin- c flotat'on mills, 1.387; estimated number of men employed In Utah to produce fuel used by lead smelters, 93; estimated number ct men employed in Utah to produce scrap iron, lime sand and lime rock used, 45; estimated .number of men employed in JUtah by railroads to handl"Treight in and out of lead smelters and mills, 525; total number of men directly employed in Utah to carry on lead smelting operations. 2.0S0; estimated dependents tor each man employed, L.3T number of persona in Utah directly dependent upon lead smelt log. 8,94 4, Assuming that the number employed Indirectly to raise foodstuffs; furnish heat, light, water and amusements; manufacture the goods used and transport and distribute the commodities to the workers and their dependent families, is as greit as the number directly employed, we may say that nearly 18,000 persons in Utah depend on tho lead smeltl: g indutry for support.
