Young Youns took the position that the report indicates that the charges of suppression oppression and opportunism and the tho restriction of academic I freedom at the thc university have not been

when be be visited Salt Salt Lake It I deals almost molt entirely with tb tho tha question of ot oti i r I I IN Is Side Line Is The Mineral Products company primarily after aCe the potash said Mr lr Macdowell The is a side line Thero There have been some gomo extravagant extravagant the potash statements ma made e concerning tle deposits of Utah I have read statements state state- merits ments which alleged that the deposits were of oC sufficient size to supply the United States with potash Noth Nothing othIn oth- oth entire nUre wih In lug ing could be farther from froni the truth The potash will supply a great part of n t gre the demand wt but not all al of It I The Tho Marysvale deposits are a high grade of or sulphate potash and can enn be used to and andIn andIn andin advantage in f fertilizer works great a In Iret manufacturing ammunition an and ex ex- ex plosives The mineral minerAI known knowli as alu- alu mute contains from 11 II to 13 per cent potash nie and when it Is extracted we have which when separated Into Its bases produces aluminum We Yc have havo Is spent mere mc re than In re research earch tho work to find out how to separate potash h and the aluminum We c have hare owned the properties Cor for years ears and new now that we have solved the r research search problem we are rea ready to go O ahead The Is not yet satisfied company 4 fn tn 1 I its reduction works at t Y S 'S I or at a a point cose se to Salt al Lake We Vc are figuring on whether It would cost less to haul the alunite here or the coal to Marysvale The reduction works will use a n lot of or coal coni and coke and we wil Intend to save the products by-products of the coal and get the ammonIa ammonia am am- monia inonia the tar and the gas The aluminum aluminum alu alu- minum we ve have not decided ed on but we wc re l know now wh t we will Il do with tho Potash it t this time Is In great reat demand We e e control the tho market and and andi It Is now selling at a A ton

discovered only through th attempt of oC the Germans to break their contracts contract with wih American Importers I spent several months In Germany German atthe at atthe atthe the time dickering for the purchase of oC ofa a a. n potash mine mineS but the price was as to too high Million Spent in Search When hen I returned to the United States I called upon the department of oC agriculture and also on President Taft and requested that a search be made mado for potash beds In this country The government o has spent pent several millions milons of ot dollars The Utah deposit and ond the Searle lake deposit In California are the only nl deposits that have been found outside of the giant seaweed of oC the the Pacific ocean In the Searle lake wells wels are aie drilled through seventy feet of oC salt until dried an underground flow fow of salt saltwater saltwater sal water is found This water contains borax s soda oda and an potash The problem has been to separate the potash from the others That will wIl be found in time and will be a profitable business as tho the thoI I wil and soda can be handled as side lines No feasible a way has been found foun to ro extract the pota potash h from the seaweed Sometimes these seaweed run as high a as 60 O p per r cent potash In addition to having our troubles over ovel the supply of ot pota h the European war ar has caused the Armour company entanglements with Great Great Britain That country ha has seized thirty-one thirty shiploads of lard and fat backs which we had shipped to our branches in Sw Sweden den Norway and Denmark The he cargoes rs me are r x i valued at The British did not care so 80 much for the meat as as it feared feare the lard an and fat backs might find frd their wa way vay into Germany German
