(By MURRAY M.MOLER jUnited Press Staff Correspondent EdCATLIiO, Idaho, iJan. 17 !;(u.W--:The huge naval gun relinking, relin-king, ordnance repair and storage jplant at Pocatello and the affiliated affil-iated Arco proving grounds, will continue -to operate full Wast for 'at least another year, Capt. Wal-'ter Wal-'ter E. Brown predicted today. Brown, a veteran of nearly 40 years in the navy, is commanding officer of the $30,000,000 plant rand directs operation anddisposi- lHon -vof its $50,000,000 worth of .machinery and stores. ? "We now have around 1,000 i'civttians working at the Pocatello Dlant and about 60 at Arco Y Brown told the United Press "It I doesn't look now that our force twill vary greatly from - these s) figures for the next year or year .'and a half" k Brown explained that the plant .was established three ! years ago to service naval ordnance from west coast I establishments and the huce lvTacIfic fleets. Previously such f work as rellning the big, 16-J 16-J inch naval rifles had to be i dene at eastern naval yards. t four mammoth warehouses at Pocatello- or the open storage areas at the Arco proving ground. There . is considerable routine maintenance and upkeep work to be done with this ordnance," Brown explained. "Some of the guns have to be 'exercised occasionally occa-sionally and that will, keep us busy." At the peak of its operations, the Pocatello plant employed 1260 civilian workers. Some two hundred of these left with the end of the war and no replacements have been hired. The navl supervisory staff has been cut to 16 officers, while the marine guard now has 60 men- Brown is proud of the plants safety record. There has been only one .fatal accident, and that More Workers Call For Jobs At USES Offices Workers are calling at the Pro-vo Pro-vo office of the United States government employment office in greater numbers than any time since 1936, In an effort to secure job referrals and infor- war-timemation concerning labor needs. This picture of the local labor situation was revealed today by W. L. Mildenhall, employment office of-fice manager, who added that job opportunities in the Utah county labor market are at the lowest level in "several years." Although warm weather is .expected .ex-pected to, loosen up construction opportunities and ease the picture pic-ture somewhat, the office now has was on the railroad at Arco and I unemployed roll total of oyer did not involve any work on the high explosives or guns. "There's actually little danger in handling these things." the jovial, precise commanding officer offi-cer insisted. "You just have to be careful, that's all." The captain said that some experimental ex-perimental and proving work would continue at the Arco range which is spread over 187 square miles and is the only naval prov ing ground in the west Husband, Wife Shot to Death BOISE, Idaho, Jan. 17 (U.P.)
