CASTLE DALE At a meeting of coal the Twin Cities mine members held Monday evening at the court house, it was decided that the growing demand for their product makes it impar-ativ- e that additional equipment be install at the mine. At the present time, two large trucks from the state organization of the C. R. W. P. U., are running steadily hauling coal from the mine to Salt Lake and other points north. Two trucks from are making regular trips for coal, while the local company has placed a truck in service for local delivery in Emery and adjoining counties. Other trucks are making occasional trips with coal to Sanpete county. With this growing business the company feels justified in extendpower ing operations by installing equipment at the mine. A Deisel engine, cutter and other equipment is planned by the company. Additional bins have been built at the mine to facilitate loading and work is .being pushed on opening up another large vein of coal across the canyon from the present mine. It is hoped to have the new tunnel ready for operation in the near future. Coal from the Twin Cities mine is regarded as some of the best in the state and is creating a demand wherever it is used. na at the local camp, failto obtain their discharge honing CCC boys Wholesale Values Amount to Nearly $43,000.00 for pil- fering in the camp in an attempt to be sent back to their eastern homes.

This commodity distribution was carried out without curtaln-meof other relief within the available funds,, according to the announcement. It is further pointed out that all of the flour, a large quantity of the lard, and dried milk, smoked meat, canned meat and sugar was processed in Utah plants, all eggs being distributed were purchased In Utah. The report issued was prepared direction of Glen D. through Reeser director of commodity distribution. Following are additional quotations from the news release and an itemized list of the commodities distributed: To transport the foodstuff that have been distributed 325 railroad cars would be required. Thirteen carloads of Kentucky Blue Grass seed were received and distributed for repasturizlng drought areas and' 29 carloads of raw cotten, wool and yard goods from which mattresses, wool blankets, bed bed comforters, pillow cases, sheets, towels and wearing apparel are made were received to produce the articles made in the work centers; all of which have been distributed to eligible persons. In all, it would require 367 railroad cars for the above foodstuff, seed and materials for wearing apparnt evep-orat- ed Theif plans, however, did not turn out as expected, and as a result the lads are spending the New Year looking out through the bars of the Price bastile with no prospects of an immediate return to their homes. Officers of the camp, aware that the boys pilfered a few small articles with the expectation that they would be discharged from camp and given transportation and subsistent money for the homeward trip, turned the case over to city authorities. When hailed before Justice Miller they were fined $7.50 each. In lieu to the fine, which they did not possess, they were taken to the Price Jail to serve out their fines. The boys have been given a dishonorable discharge without the homeward trip being paid by the government. o CCC GRAZING Camps NOT TO BE REDUCED: mm ickes The contemplated reduction in on January 1 will not affect range Improvement camps, If the recommendations of Secretary Ickes of the department of Interior are followed.
