The year 1947 saw $791,450 spent on new construction including commercial commer-cial building and 154 private homes. Ed Wickman, Orem building inspector, estimates that this year will see double the construction authorized for last year. One advantage Orem has over some of its neighboring cities in the county is its large, sparsely sparse-ly populated area. Orem still has an enormous lot of room to grow in. The city is covered by proposed pro-posed streets that have yet to be opened .The chief obstacle in opening additional streets seems to be the fact, that the pipe necessary nec-essary to carry city water along newly-opened streets is almost impossible to obtain. Wide-spread Publicity Information from the Orem Chamber of Commerce indicates that individuals and concerns throughout the country are very much interested in Orem as a possible site for business and residences. res-idences. A recent spread of pub-liicty pub-liicty in the metropolitan daily newspapers and the two national nation-al press services is bringing inquiries in-quiries from all parts of the nation. Yes, Orem is growing, and it will continue to grow in spite of what anyone says or does.

The atmosphere of gloom is about as thick now as it was during the weeks preceding preced-ing Pearl Harbor. Whether or no there is just cause for the .excessive .ex-cessive gloom is impossible to say. As usual, the public is only partially taken .into the confidence confi-dence of the government. Those close to the State Department know that dispatches are being hourly" received from abroad, and are being kept top secret. There is method in this secrecy, because it is not desired to get the American people unduly excited. ex-cited. The occasion for this gloom, of course, is the situation in Eastern Europe. Russia and Communism Com-munism continue on the march. No one knows where the next blow will fall. That Russia will strike somewhere, and that very soon, is generally believed. Secretary Marshall's words were not very reassuring when he said that world situation is yery, very serious," and by way f emphasis, the President joined join-ed in to state that "his confidence w the future peace of the world was being shaken." There is an increasing . a-munt a-munt of off-the-record talk, and me of it not so much off the record, either that a showdown show-down wh Russia is approaching approach-ing much more rapidly than anyone any-one expected a few weeks ago. int this show-down means a clash of arms is entirely within the realms of possibility and many believe of extreme probability. proba-bility.

It was believed that they did not want to get Into physical conflict with us when they can get everything they want, apparently, by other methods. meth-ods. However, in the last few days, the rearrangement of Soviet troops between the Vistula and the Oder Rivers, and in Hungary and Bulgaria, seems to have changed the picture. Information available here is tn iho pffprt that the Soviets have 175 divisions on a war foot ing. They have some 20 artinery divisions in addition, and a number num-ber of secret police divisions.

These are faced by the 45 divisions just SPOTLIGHTING UTAH Swiss Visitor Amazed John Zwicky of Switzerland came to the United States this month as a tourist. In the old country he had heard about Utah and curiosity eventually brought him to Salt Lake City. He saw the Temple block and other tourist attractions and being be-ing an intellectual person, he visited the Mormon Genealogical Genealogi-cal library. At the library he was shown the vast assemblages of microfilms on which is recorded record-ed genealogy of thousands of people. "What about the 'Z's he said to the attendant, "have you any names in your files that start with 'Z' for example?" "Oh yes," he was told, we even have mentioned The pessimists around here fear that we may wake up some fine morning in the near future and find the Russian divisions pushing our troops out of Germany. Ger-many. In fact, they have come to the conclusion that we would get out as rapidly as we could even if there was nothing more than a threat of an attack. According to Mr. Constantine Brown, the noted foreign affairs analyst, the tension is even greater in the capitals of France and Great Britain. Whether or not this fear is justified by the actual facts, of course, we do not know. We can only surmise. the name 'Zwicky'." Fascinated, John Zwicky was shown the genealogical record of the Zwicky family.

Bureau of Mines is eying Utah's mighty coal deposits de-posits as a possible source for the production of synthetic oil and gasoline. The Bureau has proposed spending $900,000,000 to construct 75 plants throughout through-out the nation in any of the 20 coal producing states Utaa is one of the states prominently mentioned. Utah's coal resources cover 13,000 square miles and constitute approximately 196,-000.000,000 196,-000.000,000 tons of coal. The Bureau is also interested in producing oil from Utah oil shale deposits. The production of oil from shale, it was pointed out, will be limited tn 4 stafps. Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Nevada. The Bureau points out that the proposed synthetic program pro-gram would tremendously increase in-crease domestic mining of coal and oil shales. Utah's oil shale outcrops cover approximately 2,500,000 acres which show a yield of from practically no oil up to 60 or 70 gallons per ton. The richest oil shales are found in the area west of Green River and eastward to the Colorado line in the Uintah Basin immediately north of the Book Cliffs. It is estimated by the Bureau of Mines that 75,-000,000,000 75,-000,000,000 barrels of recover- able oil are present in the oil shales of Utah. Upsurge Seen tn Business Expansion More than $50,000,000 will be expended in Utah this year for industrial construction and business bus-iness expansion, it is estimated. Back if this important economic development is iron, steel, oil, gypsum, fertilizer, battery, chemical and point concerns which have undertaken or disclosed dis-closed plans for new construction construc-tion or expansion this season. Utah Salt Headed For the Orient The Amerian occupied areas in the Orient are hungry for salt they will get 110,00 tons of the famous Utah seasoner as fast as trains can deliver it to the west coast shipping docks. The salt will come from the famous Bonneville Salt Flats at Wen-dover. Wen-dover. Nevada Notes Good Utah Publicity Work The Salt Lake Tribune of Friday, Fri-day, March 12, carries the following fol-lowing pertinent headline and article: "Good Publicity of UPID Wins Nevada Praise. The Reno, Nevada Chamber of Commerce Thursday gave the Utah state department of publicity and industrial in-dustrial development a pat on the back in a letter to Governor Herbert B. Maw. congratulating the department on its 'constant good publicity.' "The letter written by Ray J.
