His campaign for government economy in 1959, launched in a Chicago speech, is reminiscg ent of the warning issued neary two years ago hair-curlin- by George Humphrey, then Secretary of the Treasury. Secretary Humphreys assertion that spending must be limited, or else there would be a depression that will curl your hair, stimulated that resulted in congressional action cutting proposed expenditures in the 1958 fiscal year by appeal could provide the spark for another effective grassroots crusade. It is directly in line with recent economy statements by President and with instructions he has issued to the heads of government departments and agencies. In fact, Senator Byrd said he had discussed the fiscal situation with Mr. Eisenhower last August, when Congress adjourned, and I have noted his actions since that time, especially his orders of the last few weeks." Then Senator Byrd made what could be a Eisen-howev- highly significant observation. He said. I hope and believe he will recommend a balanced CARD MONEY TO FAIRYLAND Folks who live in Utah County may not receive as many Christmas cards this year as they have in years past at least not from many of the employees at U. S. Steels big Geneva Works But the reason isnt a lack of Christmas spirit on the part of these Utah steelworkers. Instead, the money that hundreds of these men and women would have spent on cards will be donated to the Fairyland project at Utah State Training School in American Fork. Fairyland is the seven-acr- e therapeutic playground now under construction for children at the school. tures previously voted by Congress. So he is in a position to curtail requests for future spending and to limit present spending to essentials. Senator Byrd is deeply disturbed by what he called the deterrecent ioration in the federal fiscal situation and by prospects for intense pressure for higher spending from the enlarged r Dealers in group of record-breakin- g budget for next year.

It can only be described as one of the best ever delivered by him during his long career as watch dog of the Treasury. He thinks that immediate action for economy is imperative, and he called for a national crusade from the grass roots to save our representative which is founded upon the free enterprise system. Such a crusade," he asserted, must be inspired and led by the President. It must be supported by the CongressimHouse and Senate. Most portant of all, it must be fired by the people themselves. From long experience in the Senate of the United States I can say the voice of the people in this country, it it is loud enough, will overcome selfish and highly organized minorities and will prevail that is the great virtue of our constitutional democracy as contrasted with dictatorship. So the job is up to you and every citizen. Senator Byrd is firmly of the opinion that Expenditure reductions of the necessary magntude, if applied with' care and wisdom, would strengthen our economy, strengthen our government, strengthen our New-Fai- dem-ocras- y PROJECT Th:s will mark the third consecutive Christmas that many employees at the Steel plant have sent checks to the Fairyland project instead of cards to their friends. And the program is gaining momemtum each Christmas. Last year, some 900 Geneva employees donated about to the playground, which abounds with such storybook characters as Little Red Riding Hood, the Pied Piper and the Toonerville Trolley. Much more is expected this Christmas. Started in 1955 by Myron E. Strate, division superintendent of maintenance and utilities at the plant, the effort is also becoming better organized each year. Employees can now voluntarily join the program by sending their checks to department heads. These are then channeled into one central fund. Geneva employees have long been among the most active sponsors of the Fairyland project, donating thousands of hours of volunteer work to build the playground, as well as time spent raising money for building materials. A number of other organizations and individuals, including D&RGW railroad and prisoners at prison, have a'so supported the Fairyland project with work and donations.

And with fiscal soundness, he says, I would have no fear for the future. Wishing You a Warm and Friendly Kiiperiraentg that nevir Today, Kennecott still is faced with a 54 year old problem. The problem is, greater and greater amounts of ore must be handled to produce the same amount of copp ,r. Today the ore contains less than half as much copper as it did when the Utah mine started, and to complicate the problem further, nearly twice as much waste material must be blasted and carried away to uncover theore. To help solve this problem and other problems in mining, milling and refining copper, Kennecott maintains a continuous experimental program. Throughout its operations new ways to increase efficiency and lower operating costs are tested constantly: Experiments at the mine resulted in the use of ammonium nitrate for blasting. It is safer than dynamite; loads more efficiently and costs less. nt TllIS YEAR )our gas company has brought the warmth of natural gas to thousands of additional homes in the area we serve, biineing our familv of customers to about 50,000.

Quid Tailings from milling operations flow into a 5800 acre pond. The dike surrounding the pond must be raised periodically. A new method, being tested now, uses the tailings rather than costly fill material to raise the dike. If successful, it will effect sub- stantial savings by eliminating the use of fill material. At the refinery, a carbon filter is being tested to remove impurities from the electrolytic solution used in the refining process. If filter proves successful, it will assist greatly in the production of pure copper. At Kennecott all employees have a stake in the continuous experimentation that helps solve never-endinproblems. To them it means preservation of jobs, while to all Utahns it g means continued economic benefits that help our state's prosperity. He are proud lo be a factor in the development of this territory.
