A second Spring-ville Spring-ville juvenile, 15, was apprehended and admitted participating in the bicycle theft. Both the youths will tie turned over to juvenile officers. The first Juvenile was apprehended appre-hended at Orem Friday night by Officer P.ulon West of Orem, Who .reportedly saw him forge and attempt to pass a check.

They sold the bike at a local shop, writing the name name on the bill of sale as was used on the forged check. SZilATE .(Continued from Pago One) rnide a few minor amendments, passed the bill and returned it to the senate for concurrence. The senate concurred in the amendments unanimously but then defeated the bill, 11 to 9, when it came up for final passage. However, Sen. Alonzo Jrlopkin. southern Utah Democrat, one of the sponsors of the bill, changed his vote and said he would move for reconsideration Monday. However, just before noon; Son. Grant McFarland, acting as presiding pre-siding officer, ruled that the amendments made by the house had not affected the title and so earlier senate passage of the trespass tres-pass bill still prevailed. The measure was then sent to the governor's office, but observers observ-ers in the senate chambers predicted pre-dicted that the act would be in for a test on constitutionality if attempts were made to enforce it. Further indication of the senate's sen-ate's "speed-up' program was passage without third reading of another reorganization bill, transferring trans-ferring the juvenile courts to the new public welfare commission. , Important amendments added to the bill removed juvenile courts from politics by prohibiting removal remov-al of juvenile court judges without with-out cause. Previously, it was said, the judges had " been subject to the whim of political powers. Sen. Arthur Ellett, D., Utah, argued that "not a district judge in the state ia qualified to con-elder con-elder Juvenile caseB. " Mot district Judges ; are well schooled in the criminal code, but have no understanding of the juvenile ju-venile and crime," Ellett said. Debate on reorganization bills also brought out the apparent fact that reorganization will be placed in effect at the will of the governor. gover-nor.

Use of synthetic nitrate for explosives is far more efficient, less expensive-and militarily mili-tarily more desirable. In the United States there are only two big producers of synthetic syn-thetic explosive nitrate Allied Chemical and Dye Corporation, at its giant Hopewell, Va., plant; and duPont. When Defense Commission chiefs decided to build new powder pow-der plants, they also had to provide pro-vide an adequate supply of nitrate. ni-trate. And right there they ran head-on into a maze of private opposition to their methods tacitly supported by certain Army officers. 'ioday, one year later, the tangle is not wholly resolved. The untold story of the stalling of this vital defense program ia one of the most extraordinary in the entire defense picture. f FIRST NITRATE HITCH I 4 First hitch was objection to the Government's plan of importing Chilean nitrate, thus permitting Allied Chemical's Hopewell plant to stop making fertilizer anu devote de-vote its entire capacity to explosive ex-plosive nitrates, if necessary. 'lhe chemical industry fell on this plan like a ton of brick. Backed by certain Army officials, it hotly denied that the nation faced a nitrate shortage. Hopewell's Hope-well's full facilities, it was argued would not be needed for powder purposes. -. Tne Defense Commission then turned to developing new plant facilities. Here good fortune seemed to. smile, 'i VA still had its World War nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals, was eager to use it for defense production.

SECOND NITRATE HITCH I - ' When the Defense Commission moved to use this goyernment-owned goyernment-owned plant, it again ran into powerful opposition from big business, busi-ness, particularly from the du-Ponts, du-Ponts, tacitly encouraged by the Army. However, weeks later, tne Defense Commission finally had its way and the plan was approved. approv-ed. Deieated, the duPonts aid the sporting thing and offered to sell 'iVA latest types of oxidizers, thus expediting renovation ot the Muscle bhoais plants. TVA and Deiense Commission heads were delighted. But their pleasure and duPont's willingness willing-ness was snori-iived.. N nen it came to installing the machinery, duPont demanded a ' guarantee that it woul be used oniy to produce pro-duce nitrate and never fctlhz-er, in which duPont is heavily interested. inter-ested. ims was rejected ' flatly by TVA, which pointed out that even if it wanted to, it couldn't -accept such a restriction under the low. Furthermore, it didn't want to. - duPont remained adamant, refused re-fused to lend its machinery vth-out vth-out the guarantee. So TVA had to go into the market, order new machinery for the Government thus delaying completion of the plant by many weeks. THIRD NITRATE HITCH By this time even the industry and the Army conceded the danger dan-ger of a nitrate shortage; so it was agreed that more ammonia plants would be necessary, ammonia am-monia teeing the primary source of synthetic nitrates. Thus contracts were awarded to duPont for a government-built ammonia plant to be operated at Morgantown, W. Va.; plus a similar plant by Allied Chemical, rr-vn all yon ant, al the turn o. - hing, cooH- y home U-ing U-ing and olher aaly of time , eliminale. te hjU,e f' WaUt tan, turn. ceeU fl It , I i,. t Vt Ijrrisa ii. ...... But over the latter, a third time-consuming time-consuming hitch developed. Allied Chemical insisted that the plant be located at South point, Ohio, where It haa large ti4.e.ovrn fafilitiea, Probable fuir-I fuir-I -." of this was lhe future p'H fibility that Allied Chemical, after the emergency, Would be able to take over the ammonia plant for It "own busings. But the Defense Commission unanimously unani-mously turned down South Point, Ohio, because it was too far from the new powder plants and too close to other strategic plants. However, Allied Chemical, after aft-er several months of controversy, waa Able to confront the Commission Commis-sion with an Army declaration favoring the South Point site. At this point the Commission waa licked but for a lucky break. Senator Alben Barkley, Democratic Demo-cratic Floor Leader, suddenly got wind of what was going on and put in his oar. The Senator went direct to the White House, complained that his home state waa not getting its tnare of defense projects, demanded demand-ed that the nitrate plant be located lo-cated in Kentucky. And Barkley, seeking local pap, was able to do what Knucsen, stettlnius and the other five Deiense- commissioners could not accomplish in months of effort. His-view prevailed over that of Allied Chemical and the Army ot-iicers. ot-iicers. Roosevelt ordered the Allied Al-lied Chemical plant- placed in Kentucky. But this came only after six months irittering away Or. precious preci-ous time. NOTE Under-the enlarged defense de-fense plans, plus the expanded aid-Britain program, Allied Chemical Chem-ical may vet oe lorced to shift its Hopewell plant to production of explosive mtratea. Because of the. delay in new plant construction, construc-tion, Detense experts foresee possibility pos-sibility of a serious nitrate shortage short-age by next winter. f (Copyright, 1941, by United ' .
