METAL MINES IN UTAH OPENING SALT LAKE CITY, Utah; June 5 —Optimism has entered the mining, industry, worth $2,000,000 annually tuth Rector, Beth Curnow, J. Elmer Oates, ‘to Utah, for the first time in several years, based on market improvement and increased prices. As as result, one of the largest mineral areas in the state has been reopened, new developments have started and construction is well under way on the largest lead refinery in the intermountain west. . The first definite step toward an optimistic future since 1929 was ta, ken by the United States Smelting Company. Construction has been started on a new lead refinery, in connection with its smelter at Midvale. The plant will be the largest}. Nebraska. The new refinery, scheduled to be completed by September 1, will produce 6000 tons of 99.9 per cent lead per month. It will also be equipped to refine gold and silver. Development of mining penveny in Bingham. .districts:“by thei<Ameri+. can Smelting & Refining Company, has .been under way several weeks. The project will cost between’ $40,-. 1 000 and $50, 000.

O'BRIEN BACK INROLPH'S FOLD SACRAMENTO, June 5—(UP)— Daniel J. O’Brien, former director of penology, is. back wih the Rolph administration. He has agreed to accept a state post as deputy director of the motor vehie¢le department. The appointment was made by Theodore Roche, director. The job, like Roche’s, carries ne remuneration. O’Brien’s bhai d were not specified . O’Brien’s return was regarded as significant from the political standpoint. First, it. killed-~ rumors that the former Sanh Francisco police. commissioner and ‘Rolph were at “outs.” Second, it brought back into the administration fold. a keen political head whose counsel will be of invaluable assistance to the governore in the 1934 campaign. The former direetor of penology resigned a day or so after the legis_ lature virtually abolished his position by removing the $3,600 annual salary. O’Brien had been absent for about a year in Europe, recovering from ill health. It was. believed that O’Brien’s chief duty will be to advise the governor on political matters. Rolph is facing a stiff campaign—this assuming, as everyone does, that he will be a candidate for reelection—and will need. all the counsel he can secure. An idea of the task ahead of Rolph is the fact that only. one California governor, Hiram Johnson, has been reelected in the state’s history. O’Brien was brought inte the Rolph administration early in 1931 along with other San Franciscans who had. long been associated with the governor during his 20-year tenure as: mayor of the bay city metropolis. He was born in San Francisco. Twenty-five years ago he secured a job as patrolman. He worked up through the ranks and was appointed chief in 1920. Eight years later he retired, only to be appointed police commissioner a year later. He resigned that job in. 1930 and shortly thereafter was ~named directory of penology.

Elmer Oates, ‘to Utah, for the first time in several years, based on market improvement and increased prices. As as result, one of the largest mineral areas in the state has been reopened, new developments have started and construction is well under way on the largest lead refinery in the intermountain west. .

O'BRIEN BACK INROLPH'S FOLD SACRAMENTO, June 5—(UP)— Daniel J. O’Brien, former director of penology, is. back wih the Rolph administration. He has agreed to accept a state post as deputy director of the motor vehie¢le department. The appointment was made by Theodore Roche, director. The job, like Roche’s, carries ne remuneration. O’Brien’s bhai d were not specified . O’Brien’s return was regarded as significant from the political standpoint. First, it. killed-~ rumors that the former Sanh Francisco police. commissioner and ‘Rolph were at “outs.” Second, it brought back into the administration fold. a keen political head whose counsel will be of invaluable assistance to the governore in the 1934 campaign. The former direetor of penology resigned a day or so after the legis_ lature virtually abolished his position by removing the $3,600 annual salary. O’Brien had been absent for about a year in Europe, recovering from ill health. It was. believed that O’Brien’s chief duty will be to advise the governor on political matters. Rolph is facing a stiff campaign—this assuming, as everyone does, that he will be a candidate for reelection—and will need. all the counsel he can secure. An idea of the task ahead of Rolph is the fact that only. one California governor, Hiram Johnson, has been reelected in the state’s history. O’Brien was brought inte the Rolph administration early in 1931 along with other San Franciscans who had. long been associated with the governor during his 20-year tenure as: mayor of the bay city metropolis. He was born in San Francisco. Twenty-five years ago he secured a job as patrolman. He worked up through the ranks and was appointed chief in 1920. Eight years later he retired, only to be appointed police commissioner a year later. He resigned that job in. 1930 and shortly thereafter was ~named directory of penology.
