Show CHRISTMAS EDITION THE BINGHAM BULLETIN, BINGHAM CANYON, UTAH FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1958 KENNECOTT GIVES PROGRESS REPORT FOR THE YEAR Continuation of liTR-ran- e pro-gram! to improve opetMing effic-iency and help insure future suc-cessful operation, liigriliKhted of the Utah Copper Divis-ion of Kcnnecott Copper Corpora- - tion, during 1938. Plagued by climbing pperating costs and a highly competitive cop-per market, the Utah Division is remaining strong in the industry by successfully carrying on a program of improvements in all phases of operations. This program includes more economical use of equipment and supplies, improvements in work methods, a review of purchasing procedures, rearrangement of per-sonnel and organizational improve-ments aimed at more efficient ute of the work force and improved management. Long-rang- e projects expected to insure future successful operations in the face of rising expenditures, increased work loads and decreas-ing amounts of valuable metal in the ore, include the 18,000 foot tunnel being driven from the mouth of Bingham Canyon into the bot-- , torn of the open-pi- t mine; expan-sion of the Division's Central Pow-er Plant, and integration of the American Smelting and Refining Company, smelter at Garfield sche-duled for early 1959. In addition, the Division contin-ued several experimental projects durinu 1958 and launched several others, which may prove of value in improving operations. These in-clude testing of cyclone ore classi-fiers and an elevated tailings dis-posal system to reduce dike build-ing coats at the mills. At the world famed Utah Copper mine at Bingham Canyon, experi-mental tests have resulted in the use of mechanical equipment which has mude operations more efficient. These include a power cribber for removing track ballast; a mechan-- j ical bank trimmer; more efficient method of loading holes using pow-er equipment and a less expensive blasting material, and improved dump line switching facilities. The principal project to reduce mining costs is the $11,000,000 ore haulage tunnel, now 92 com-plete. The tunnel will eliminate costly up-hi- ll ore and waste haul-age from the bottom of the deep-ening pit. Work on the tunnel was started in 1956. When completed. $109,000,000 for payrolls, supply purchases, services and taxes. Early in 1958, the Division was awarded the National Safety Coun-cil's highest industrial award for its outstanding safety record dur-ing 195 7. The Division qualified for the coveted Award of Honor by having an accident frequency rate of only 3.73 accidents per million man hours worked, com-pared to tWe surface mining indus-try's national average of 11.19. it will probably be the longest single track mine tunnel in the United States. Construction work was sturted this year on the second major pro-ject to increase the operating effic-iency of the company. Most of the foundation work and other initial installations have been completed on the $16,000,000 expansion pro-ject at the Central Power Station. The project includes the instal-lation of a 75,000 kilowatt turbine generator, new boiler, cooling tow-ers, electrical switch equipment, a 20-fo- extension to the present building and other related work. When completed, it will boost the total output of the power plant from its present 100,000 kilowatt capacity to 175,000 kilowatts. The plant supplies all the power for the mine, mills, refinery and electric railroad. The Division will also spend over five and a half million dollars in the next year for projects involv-ing the moving of considerable quantities of earth and for bridge repair. Underway now, is the stripping of 8.000,000 yards of waste over-burden from the upper levels on the east and west sides of the Di-vision's Utah Mine, and the haul-ing of 400,000 yards of fill mater-ial for raising the Division's tailings pond dikes north of the Utah Ar-thur and Magna Mills. Major re-pair work on five steel bridges in Carr Fork Canyon above Bingham Cany.cn was completed early in December. The Utah Copper Division will take one of the most important steps in its history when it ac-quires the Garfield smelter as part of Kennecott Copper Corporation's integration of its copper produc-ing facilities. The smelter will be-come part of the Utah Division on January 2, 1959, at a cost of $20,-000.00- Altogether, the Division spent a total of $10,050,300 during the year for new equipment and con-struction to improve operating ef-ficiency at the mine, mills and re-finery. Of this, $4,019,600 was expend-ed on the new 5490 tunnel and $4,131,300 on the new addition to tha Central Power Plant. Other major items included: $600,000 for contract stripping operations on the upper east and west levels of the mine; $380,000 for steel piping at the Central Power Sta-tion, and $180,000 for a new car dumper and cradle at the Utah Magna Mill. It expended a total of1, Action by Utah's medical men is seeking the Basic Science Law follows federal reports that fake cures and medical frauds by quacks have reached new time high in the nation. The Food and Drug Administra-tion recently branded such frauds "akin to robbery and murder" and reported over $10 million being spent annually for fake cancer cures alone. The effort for Utah legislation to plug loopholes permitting quacks and charlatans to practice parallels the national effort for additional federal powers dealing with phony medical devices and fake cures. would be required to take examin-ations in five basic sciences. Ad-ministered by faculty members of the University of Utah, Utah State University and Brigham Young University, the examinations would include anatomy, physiology, che-mistry, pathology and hygiene. The 'Utah State Dental Assn and Utah Pharmaceutical Assn. are professional groups support-ing the examination law, which is similar to protective laws adopted by twenty-on- e states. The Basic Science Law would not be retroactive, and would not effect persons now practising un-der license in the healing arts field. Insuring fairness, university faculty members administering tests would not know the names or fields of prospective practioners taking the tests. A subcommittee of the Legisla-tive Council is due to report to the Utah Legislature concerning its study of "schools" some of the state's cultists allegedly attended. The report is expected to label some of the schools as "diploma mills" at which certificates can be purchased without attendance. Oth-er self-style- d colleges lack adequate courses, equipment and faculty, while a high perecentage of institu-tions at which quacks and cultists claim to have trained are defunct. UTAH'S DOCTORS URGE LEGISLATION TO PROTECT PUBLIC AGAINST QUACKS Warning that Utah resident, are being victimized by "quacks and cultists" who have little or no training in the healing arts, the Utah State Medical Association will ask the Legislature to protect the 'public's health through passage of a Basic Educational Requirement.
