Hopkins said the administration was committed to increase the national income.

D Ross of the Columbia River Bonneville Dam predicted in testimony made public todaj that demands for electric energy in Washington and Oregon will exceed output of the huge hydi project. Ross testified befoie a house appropriations subcommittee on the interior department appropriation bill supporting a request for $14 000,000 to build transmission lines in the Bonneville region. He estimated that lull hydroelectric development at Bonneville and (hand Coulee would provide a power supply of about 1,600,000 kilowatts. Prior to the depression, he said, demand for power in Washington and Oregon doubled about every 5'.- to 7 a years. He the increased demand predicted would provide ready markets tor the new power supplies. Records of the secret hearings disc losed that Dr John W . Finch, director of the Bureau of Mines, told the subcommittee that completion of the western dams will make possible development of a new light-metindustry. Finch s'aid a lightweight magnesium, metal that can be used extensively in airplanes and dirigibles is found in quantity near federal power projects. "The metal magnesium," he said, "has taken permanent place among the light metals. It is corrosion resistant and forms extremely light alloys of great strength. The adequate deposits of magnesium ore occur near federal power projects which will soon deliver the essential large supply of cheap electrical power. With further development of low cost power production, a new industry that can use a considerable amount of power will begin to grow." - Hanes, H U 1) N K S I) A J. 1).

March 8 d li Utahs legislature today voted to write the monthly inventory law off the ' state statute book. In effect just one year, the law requiring taxation of merchants on the basis of a monthly survey of stock on hand was killed when the senate joined the house in voting to return to the old law. If the governor signs the measure, taxes again will be levied on Jan. 1 inventories. The senate voted down a compromise amendment that would have established a The same quarterly inventory. amendment was defeated by the house. Says Law Worked Ser. Dexter Farr, D., Weber, supported repeal of the monthly inventory and said it would aid business. Sen. Glen E. Snow, D, said the monthly Washington-Iron- , law was working out admirably" not and did increase taxes on businesses, but merely forced firms which had been avoiding them to pay. Snow said the Jan. 1 inventory created an inequality in taxation, as (he merchants can clear his shelves in December, avoiding Some of the tax, and the farmer, livestockman or home owner cannot reduce his taxable possessions. Appeals For Labor An appeal for some legislative to action appease labor was made in the bouse by Rep. Wallace H. Jcnk .sc. , D., Salt Lake. He asked the house to suspend rules and consider "two or three labor measures for the good of the party. He asked representatives to look to the 1940 elections and said labors requests have been refused at every turn by the present session." Rep. Mi'on n'witehell, R., Garfield, said xh. ouse had considered five of the six major labor measures and denied charge that labor had not enjoyed its share of representation. Personal property exemption up to $300. one of the provisions of the original homestead exemption bill, waa approved by the house. The bill now goes to the governor. Fireworks Rill Modified The senate refused to recede from its amendment reducing the total of a house bill to appropriate money for the present session. The house would not concur in the amendment, which slashed the sessions allowance from $15,000 to committee $10,000. A conference was named. Most bills finally acted upon by either house during one day of session, 22, were considered by the L iluifj TBGFFIC 1 1 Ww i vf.
