MonticeUo News The recently announced government program of stockpiling metals already has shown signs of helping Utah's dying mining industry. according to Miles P. Romney, manager, Utah Mining Association. Even before the program went into effect, lead and sine prices Mr. Romney advanced slightly, said. He pointed out. however, that although the new program is cheering news, mining men and Utahs congressional delegation consider it an emergency measure and not a permanent solution to the problem. Utahs real need, Mr. Romney said, is s long range program that will enable the industry to operate and grow without setbacks. "In the past two years 40 of our mines have stopped operating and more than 1000 men have lost their Jobs, he said. "The mines were i forced to shut down when dumping of foreign metals on the American market drove prices down. While an increase in the price of lead and zinc will make it possible to re-- I sume operations, it will not war-- I rant necessary expenditures for ex- -, Dioration and development of long range ore reserve projects." "Mining plays an important part in the prosperity of our whole state." Mr. Romifey added.

Stopgap measures cannot do awey with the spectre of ghost towns in Utah." Mr. Romney pointed out that the, solution to the problem lies in the control of imports. Unless we work out such a program," he said, "we would be calling on the American taxpayer to buy the world surplus of metals, and we can scarcely expect our people to bear such a burden for any length of time. Mr. Romney expressed the mining industrys appreciation for efforts of the Utah congressional delegation in working toward a stable market. He also said the industry was encouraged by President Dwight D. Eisenhowers appreciation of the need for action to save a basic industry. We in Utah have a particularly high stake in successful mining operations," he said, "and the future prosperity of our state will depend to some extent on the development of a program that will encourage risking capital to seek new ore bodies that will enable the industry to keep operating in the future. her birthday Friday.
