Fluxes are the "ex- ers" of metallurgical process-i:;ot process-i:;ot much is needed but that Hit is very important. The i-it steel processing calls for 1 8 pounds of fluorite for each j steel processed. In addition "J 1ISP in ttiA v, , . 4. if f "we are other modern uses in the manufacture of DDT and high octane gasoline, etc. As a pure mineral fluorite contains con-tains 48.9 percent fluorine and 51.1 percent calcium. Commercial deposits de-posits always carry a certain a-mount a-mount of silica, barium, and other impurities." Fluorite is usually transparent to translucent, but dark-colored varieties may be nearly near-ly opaque. Its color may be blue, green, yellow, brown, rose, claret, purple or white. It fades upon long exposure to light and outcrop material mat-erial is usually colorless or white.

Fork In hardness it is harder than cal-cite cal-cite but can be easily scratched with a knife. The market price of fluorspar varies considerably depending up- j on grade, particle size, the location locat-ion of the consumer and the nature of the sales contract. Eastern quotations quo-tations place the value between $35.00 and $42.00 per ton. The three major districts of fluorspar in Utah are the Topaz Mountain district in Juab county, the Wildcat Mountains of Tooele County and the Indian Peak and Wah Wan Range areas of western Beaver County. There are several other counties where the mineral is found in varying grades and quanities but the first districts named in or have sustained commercial com-mercial production. The demand and the production are steadily increasing in-creasing to the extent that Utah may become one of the most important im-portant fluorite producing states of the Nation. The Raw Materials Division of the Department of Publicity Pub-licity and Industrial Development have prepared an extensive Circular Circul-ar on the subject which is available upon request.

' The governor's "greetings" to the convention turned out to be a declaration of war on race horse gambling In a dozen cen tral and southern Utah counties. The county big-wheels opposed increased tax levies for welfare purposes and requested legislation legisla-tion for an over-all state retire ment plan to include city and county officials. Sheriffs and county attorneys were behind a resolution calling for laws requiring local peace of ficers to enforce the state liquor statutes and with it a slice of the liauor nrcfits to underwrite the additional expenses. One county officer contended that in the past it was hard to tell the state stool pigeon from the alleged violator. Lee Under Fire On Caoitol Hill. J. Bracken Lee had hardly warmed the cushion of the governor's chair, before his liauor enforcement program be came the tareet of a bitter at tack by Sen. Lorenzo E. Elgren, D.. Salt Lake. The senator charged that the sale of liquor by the drink had become an open practice in og-den, og-den, Salt Lake City, Price and Helper since Gov. Lee fired 20 members of the liquor eniorce ment division. Senators Lund. Melich, and Mc Shane all jumped to the defense of the governor, declaring the attack was "vicious" and the implications unwarranted. The legislators then recessed for the week-end, hoping the row would cool. PID Rent Gets The Axe The state department of pub licity and industrial development lost its plush down-town quart ers in the Ex-CelCis building when Gov. Lee instructed the state finance commission to cancel can-cel the $325 a month lease. Liquor Profits Pie State Auditor Reese M. Reese began carving the million dollar liquor profits pie this week, and passing out portions to Utah cities and counties. Utah Unemployed Up Unemployment in Utah was up 40 in December over November. Unemployment insurance payments pay-ments for the month amounted to $461,012, a jump from $272,090 the previous month. Veterans' allowance payments totaled $141, 191 compared to $42,486 for November. Letters of appreciation written on receipt of the 42 boxes cf clothing sent to the LDS members mem-bers of the Japanese Mission have been received by H. Arthur Smith, bishop of the Alpine ward and were read in the ward services Sunday evening. The boxes' left the local postoffice Nov. 18 and were received in a little less than a month. The letter from E. L. Clissold, president of the mission, states that there is much suffering in that area and the diet of the people is very limited. He also said that during the 25 years the mission was closed the old members mem-bers of the church remained faithful. Elder Wayne McDaniel, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest McDaniel, who is laboring in Japan as a missionary and who was the instigator of the project, wrote a long detailed letter to Bishop Smith, among other things he said: We rented a school building, had all of them come together one evening, put on a program and a moving picture show, af-terwhich af-terwhich we gave each family a bundle of clothing. I wish you could have seen them as tears of; appreciation streamed down thiir faces. Some of thej were irraes with babies on their backs crying with the cold. I talked to a number o the people. Many of them had lost their homes during the war, many are widows caring for their families. They live in shacks built of material salvaged from bombed areas, some are in caves, anything for a shelter. 86 Proof 65 Grain Neutral Spirits National Distillers Products Corp., New York USEE) CAR BARGAINS 1948 Ford Club Coupe R & H .... $1845.00 1947 Ford Convert, R & H .... . $1845.00 1947 Chevrolet 4 Door $1745.00 J947 Chevrolet 2 Door, very clean . . $1695.00 1 947 Plymouth 4 Door, Special Deluxe $1 695.00 1941 Plymouth 4 Door, R & H $1145.00 1940 Chevrolet 4 Door $ 895.00 1938 Chevrolet, New Motor ......$ 645.00 1938 Ford,R&H $ 395.00 1937 Pontiac, New Motor $ 445.00 Used TRUCK SPECIALS 1945 Chevrolet Vi Ton Pickup $895.00 1942 Chevrolet 1 Vi Ton $845.00 1941 International Ton $745.00 -!-,; r , Q ' ' - TBIANOGOS MOTOR We Have The Tools To Beat Old Man Winter All at Attractive Prices maaiaaaiWBinaDaBU SNOW SHOVELS $1.75 LONG HANDLED SCOOP.
