WESTERN INDUSTRY THIS FEATURE PUBLISHED THE LAST ISSUE OF EACH MONTH

Plan $20/000,000 In Vast Manitoba Industrial Chain WINNIPEG—Proposal to construct a $20,000,000 chemical plant

here hais been contirmed by a spokesman for Winnipeg & Central Gas Co., who added that it is only one link in a scheme that could lead to a massive chain of industry.

The firm has formed a new coni-pany, Canadian Hydrocarbons Ltd., which will do the planning for the plant and for long-range future development.

Actual plans for the neW plant, which will specialize in nitrogen-type] fertilizer from raw materials found in western gas, won't be prepared until financing, still in the preliminary stage, is completed.

However, the spokesman expects that work will be able to begin in the "near future". But the plant itself IS only a small part of the overall program."

The project calls for Canadian Hydrocarbons Ltd. to act more or less as a holding company and— from a Winnipeg; base—develdp a network of suibsidiaries in fields allied With the petroleum industry.

If the- ambitious scheme goes through, said the spokesman, Winnipeg & Central Gas Co!, the original parent firm, will wind up as only one small child in a huge family of industry: 'Canadian Hydrocarbons Ltd. was

formed on a 3,500,000^share authorized capital up to a limit of $25,-000,000. Present shareholders in Winnipeg & Central will be given first chance to buy the new stock and the gas company itself will retain and maintain a 20 per cent interest.

Wheh. financing is complete, Winnipeg & Central is to sell to the new concern all of its recently acquired propane interests—• including: Home Gas Co., Manitoba Propane, Regas & Saskatoon Propane—and its controlling interest in Canadian Propahes.

Canadian Hydrocarbons Ltd. is also to buy the Natural Gas building on Notre Dame avenue for development purposes.

One subsidiaryj; wriil ,be. formed to operate^ the prb^aiie interests, an

other to construct and operate the chemical plant here. Winnipeg & Central will^ handle only distribution of gas within Manitoba.

Canadian Hydrocarbons would also take oyer development of Winnipeg-& Central's contemplated pipeline from the North Dakota Tioga "wet gas" field.

The Winnipeg chemical plant could operate on both gas from the proposed Trans-Canada pipeline and propane and residual fuel oil from the Tioga field.

Hydrocarbons from gas could be used for a variety of other industries in-this province and it is in this direction that the firm's neW expansion would turn. , Plans call for Canadian Hydrocarbons Ltd. to find and study "growth situations". If 'other byproducts appeared to have development potential, the company would set up a new subsidiary and start the development. . Associated with the new concern as consulting engineers is the McGraw Company of Canada Ltd.

Coast Steel Firm Moves To New Plant Nextl¥eek

VANCOUVER—Coast Steel Fabricators Ltd., presently located at 738 Powell street, will move early next week into its newly constructed plant and office building at 1423 Grant street. New telephone number will be HAstings 8401.

The building, comprised of 7200 square feet shop space and 2200 square fleet office space on two floors,, was constructed by. Mon-crieff Construction Co. Ltd. on a contract price of $38,551. Plans were by Architect R. I<. Toby.

A spokesman said that although no diversification is presently planned for the firm's operations, the new premises will provide much heeded space for its expanding business. No personnel changes have been announced.

Texas Firm Plans Oil E;xploration In Canada

CALGARY—A large American oil-producing firm plans to spend a minimum of $10,000,000 by mid-J.958 for oil and gas exploration in Alberta and B.C., officials of Cian-adian Atlantic Oil Co. Ltd. have announced.

The proposed expenditure results from an agreement between the local firm and Southern Production Co. Inc., of Fort Worth, Texas.

I?i January, loans under the National Housing Act were approved for 321 home units in B.C. compared to 125 in the same month last year. Foundations were laid for 521 units in. January compared with 403 units the year before.

"All indications point to. an extremely active construction year in B.C. under NHA," Mr. Pickers-gill said; "It looks like we will have a larger volume this year than in 1954, which was the top year in volume of loans."

In 1954, British Columbians obtained loans totalling $41,445,760 under NHA, well above the previous peak year of 1953 and more than five times the 1951 figure of $8,011,006r

CMHC officials said NHA loans accounted for about 45 per cent of the home building in B.C. last year ; ' " • • • . , •

In the last four yearsj B.C. home builders have borrowed $83,279,135 under N H A . Loans have enabled 83,466 persons to construct their own houses, on the basis of three persons to a unit.

Greater Vancouver had 99,796 housing units in 1941. > The total now stands at more than' 175,000, with 28 per cent biiilt under: NHA,

Changes have been made in government housing policy this year, designed to help the home builder.

The maximum interest rate on insured loans granted under NHA has been reduced from dVz to 5 ^ per cent. CMHC no longer will fix the top sale price for houses, arid commercial builders, with maximum loanis, may sell for whatever price they can get.

Steady Newsprint Demand

VANCOUVER —Newspapers in the United States are expected to consume Tas much, if not more, newsprint this year as they did in 1954, in the opinion of a U.S. authority; Cranston Williams, general manager of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association, attributed an improved economic outlook for the expected in-criease.

Possibility Seen Trans-Canada Rogers Pass

VANCOUVER—Constriiction of bridges is the most serious problem facing the B.C. public works department, Deputy Minister E. Jones stated here last week and added that there may be no other way to build spans in the province except under the Toll Highway and Bridges Authority Act passed last year. ' ,

Speaking to a joint luncheon | He gave his opinion there is a de-meetmg of the Electrical Inspec- finite possibility the Trans-Canada tors' Association of B.C. and the Vancouver Electric Club, Mr. Jones revealed a survey -shoWed the province must spend $7,000,000 per year for the next five years to meet the present bridge situatibn.

"The time may come when we may earmark all expenditures for bridges and none for highways," he stated. ^ 'h. He predicted the Rbsedale^gasr siz bridge will be completed in November, 1956, and bid call on the bridge at.Nelson will be made this bomihg seasbn. -: Mr. Jones foresaw renewal of the Trans-Canada highway agreement as this province was a long Way behind oh its commitments and will not finish by the end of 1956 when the agreement terminates. He gave ass average coJst on the Trans^Janada road of $250,000 per mile without services which aire $12,66o to $15,000 per mile. l_ In quantities of materials moved, B.(j. tops Canada. In the past year, 3,000;d00 cubic yards of matei^ial or bnb mile of solid rock were moveidi in the B.C. section of the highway. Such a prograin is costing this province $18 per capita as against Ontario's $8 for a total of $13,000,000 annually, Mr. Jones stated;";;.^ .' ' '•'

Code Introduced Fbr Power Tools

VAN(;:OUVEai-TAccident preyehr tion .regulatipiis.for explosive actuated tools became effective February 1 and will shortly be published in booklet form by the B.C. Workmen's Compensation Board.

After public hearings held here I;Jovember 15 and December 9, the new Code was formulated for adoption by the Compensation Board.

R. Craton, a i technical expert from the Powder Power Tbol Corporation, of Portland^ Oregon, was in attendance tp^giveengineerihg l^nd technical badvice.O^^ iwhose company makes ' Drive-It pools, was bf-ineistimable vailUe in Iprovidihg information for formulating the new Code. I Elxclusive distributor in Canada Ipr brive-It tools is Ammo-Ppwer ibo l Cp. Ltd. which j^peiarheaded Ihe industry's drive to have the llode instituted in B.C. It Officials of Ammo^Power Tool go. reveal that during the past ifcveri years, only six minor acci-j|ents have been caused in B.C. by ^prkmen using powder actuated tools. This small number of accidents happened during a time when an estimated 5,000,000 applications were done in this province. These Ammo-Power Tool officials state that none of the mishaps would have occurred if the safety regulations had then been in effect.

VANCOUVER—W. C. R. Jones has been appointed vice-president in charge of industrial and public relations for Powell River Co.

Presently with Columbia Cellulose Co., Mr. Jones will take over his new post on May 1.

highway would go through Rogers Pass. A • preliminary survey has been made of this pass in view of the possibility of a dam being built at Mica which would flood the upper part of the road. * At present the highway will go no further than Mica.

TTie public works department expects to do 40 miles within the next year on the T^ans-Canada highway.

Mr. Jones said his minister,' P. A. Gaglardi, has said he will consider relocating the Southern Trahsprovincial highway over the

Cascades; This would be a $1(),000,-000 program and would depend on surveys to be ma.de this year of. the route north of the present road which would go up Christina Lake and join the Trail-Rossland road, 12 miles eas£ of Trail.

Mr. Jones predicted the (IJariboo road will be payed to Prince George within the next two years. The Hart highway paving work will continue and next year it will have 40 miles of hard surface.

The deputy minister stated a survey of the Kitimat-Terrace rpad was made last summer Which showed this construction would cost $100,000 per mile. He did not know when the 100-mile job would be dphe.

Capital expenditure by Mr. Jones' department in the current fiscal year will be $30,000,000 with $13,-000,000 for maintenance.

He showed how costs have increased by citing snow removal work cost $15,000 when started in 1926 as against $2,800,000 for this work last year. /

Asphalt Sheets Used For Large Alberta Water

EDMONTON—A new method of lining reservoirs speedily and economically has been applied in the construction of the new 2,000,000-gallon water reservoir for the municipality of Stirathcona; It marks the first use of asphalt impregnated felt and preformed asphalt sheets for a reservoir lining in westeirn Canada.

First step in the installation of was reinforced with an additional

Saturday, February 2 ^ 1955. i|

the reservoir liner was to apply a double layer of 45-pound asphalt-impregnated felt on a dry sand bed over the entire bottom of the side slopes. The felt was bonded together with 145 softening-point asphalt. Then the whole area was mopped with the same asphalt.

To protect the upper portion of the sloped banks against wave erosion and ice action, a layer of half-inch preformed asphalt was bonded to the doubleiayerpf felt with one-, third gallon pei s uafve yard of 145 softening-pbiht asphalt; All the joints were poured with the" same material an4,tlien the outer edge

layer of felt to prevent curling and to stiffen the rim.

In the past, asphalt membrane and saturated felts used as linings over dry sand have been anchored to the sides of the reservoir in a manner similar to that in which a pavement is anchored to a road. The result has been that when the ground; heaved or cracked, the lining or.the felt was torn, which produced a leak. In the Strathcona in-istallatioh, the membrane is free Jfroi&:the isand p deidit inovement between ground and membrane, reducing the possibility of such rupture. 1

The relatively new combination of materials used in lining the Strathcona reservoir, and the method of application, reduces the hazard of leaikage and also serves the purpose of cleanliness since the three-in-one slopes prevent cqllectjon Of silt or algae, in the bottom of the reservoir. ^

Ihstallation of the lining was carriied out by Eyer^l Engineering Ltd. Preformed sheets were supplied by Elsroiisphalt Ltd., reported to be:the oiily^ firm in Canada manufacturing these asphalt sheets. Asiihalt was supplied by Excelsior Refineries Ltd. The reservbii: and feed lines were designed by Asisq-ciated IJiigineering Services Ltd.

Officialis say that thie^new liiiing method' probably will be Used in the - construction of irrigation ditches,\. dugouts, spiilways, open sluices/ protectiye moats, bulkheads, »>'«wimming pool^ and other structures where waterproofing or pirbtection against wave action and ice action or erosion is required.

Savings In Concrete Construction By Floor-Placing Method

TORONTO—A new "dual" method of putting floors and ceilings into steel-and-concrete office buildings, apartments and other like structures has been patented in Canada by Basil W. Ingleby, a retired builder. He believes that it will speed up construction and save money.

It is intended to compete with two established systems—KJoricrete slabs laid oh the steel frame vfith a concrete floor poured on top or (cellular steel flooring laid on the framing with concrete floor poured ,on,top. •, /• :,v':->: '^ .':' "••' . :;••:;-•;•

Both of these eliminate the forest of wood shoring, carpenter labor and material wastage that goes with pouring concrete floors on forms supported by temporary

^hich the concrete floor has been poured,j for the ceiling underheath: Basic units are factory-made yer-

Jmiculite or slag slabs treated with a mastic material to prevent wet concrete adhering.

: Slabs are put under the bottom side of the top flange of the steel and held in place by lagging blocks and cross members. Electrical conr ;duit systems and other work to re^ main vpermanently in the floor are installed and the concrete floor poured. ^

Then comes the feature of Mr. Ingleby's system which he cliaims gives. advantages.

When floors have cured.to desired ^ensity, lagging blocks and cross members are removed. The slabs, which up to now have acted as a forni for the concrete floor, are IbWered to engage bottom flanges of the steel beams. ; Viewed from underneath, the undersides of the slabs, with the undersides of the steel beams between, provide a ceiling. Blocks are inserted in the grooves ;;.be-

nadians Assist New Zealand Pulp Industry

AUCKLAND, N.Z. - . Canadian "know-how" is steadily flowing into New Zealand to assist in the establishment of a big new newsprint industry.

Numerous Canadians have been engaged for a year or more working on the design ,4iid erection of the mills and' the installation of machinery at Kawcrau, near the east coast of North Island. This is the headquarters of the* Tasman Pulp & Paper Co., the multi-million-dollar concern which will produce lumber, pulp, newsprint and other timber products. ; Last month a party of about 60

lumbermen arrived from Canada to get the logging side of the operation under way. Latest arrivals are members of a management team supplied by the Abitibi PoWer & Paper Co. of Toronto.

A further group of lumbermen is due the end of this month and additional parties of Canadian experts will arrive as the mills prepare to go into production later this year.

Retiring president E. W. Costello Of Mannix Limited, Calgary, said the aissociation had joined the vocational training branch of the federal labor department and the labor departments of the prairie provinces to begin training programs that will eliminate the necessity of importing skilled workers from the ILS. So far, said Mr. Costello, some 80 men are in training, or have' completed courses, :particulariy in welding:

Mr; (Costello :told the convention that the association's main activi-,ties miist be training, safety regulations, and a piiblicity cami)aign to instill in thei Canadian public the idea that the pipeline industry has become a major source of employment.

The second day of the two-day jparley was highlighted by joint speakers E. V. Ablett of the Workmen's Compensation Board, auid James Paton, safety inspector of ;the;. Board '.' _

In his speech oh safety, M ton severely criticized the pipeiihe industry for its extremely high accident rate. Because of vast amounts of heavy madiinery used, difficult teirrain and because many workers are unfamiliar with the worki >the frequency of ac^ approaches 50 i man-hours wprlM^ 16 accidents per iniilioii niarf hours;: in the consti^uction irid ^an^oyer^liffa^ this| places; |t^ fai" and; awayi; the most facci(3eht- i prohe^' ,• •''.•'v.. •; •

Mr. Paton urged management to adopt a firm policy of accident pre-yentioh and insist on safety procedures in their operations. •

Mr. Ablett compared tlie Cana-d i a n workmen's compensation agreements with those, of the U.S. He said that' one of the inajor factors behind formation of the Board in Canada was the vast number of employer-employee court cases which entailed heavy legal expense to all concerned.

"The two-4ay conclave, held in; Victoria's Empress hotel, drew top men in the business from all across Canada and as far away as Texas, and New York. They were wel

comed Friday by Hon. Robert W. Bonner, B.C. attorney general. ,

Ytong Aerated Produced In Calgary

CALGARY—A new industry struction trade has thrust its roots

It is the production of chemically aerated concrete called Ytong. It is being produced at the new plant of Alberta Ytong Manufacturing Company Limited, first of its kind on the North American continent, which went into production last October.

Chielfly responsible for establishr ment of the plant was the f oresiight of a group bf British interests, among whom the well-known East India merchants, Steel Bros. & Company Limitied, stand in the forefront. Heading -the Board of Directors is 0. R. Walker, president of Merrill Petnileums Limited. Supportmg him are N. E. Tanner, Trans-C^ada Pipelines president, A, W. Carlson -of Edmonton and E: R/ Mackay of, Vancouver. General manager is Nigel Whitehead, former manager of Steel Bros.' oil and cement interest in Burma.

The Calgary plant's present production capacity is 100 cubic yards a day, mainly in:blocks an slabs. Plans to extend t^^ and di-' versify production to (enibrk various reinforced ma aire ial-readyimder consideration.

Ytong is manufactured from [ silica-shale and unslaked' lime, ' ground to the necessary fineness and mixed in the proper propor-: tions. The flour is then mixed with water, various other chemicals also being added, and the slurry allowed to settle into molds where it presets and is c^trinto the required SKO. A short period pf^air-curihg is tlien fallowed by a more lengthy steam curing treatment. The Ytong is now ready for use.

Just how fast and how much Ytong has^ined i^bghition as ah

: excellent lightweight building material can perhapis best be understood by glancing briefly at its history in Sweden, where it originated.

Ytong was developed by Dr. Axel Eriksson shortly after the first world war. In 1929 a patent was obtained and in the same year the first factory went into production. From that first operation, producing 100 cubic metres a day, Sweden's production capacity has increased 25 ;times| iri; the last four to five years, bpiBi*ations have bieen extended to six other countries. In Sweden todays approximately 70 to 80 per cent of all new home units are built wholly or partly of lightweight concrete, mostly chemically aerated concrete.

The use of Ytong assures the uiser bl four main properties desired ,of a lightweight concrete, namely, low bulk density, high

MUCH OIL SPENDING 1CMMRI955

DALLAS, Tex. — Oil companies plan to spend $400,000,000 in Canada this year, according to Petroleum Engineer magazine.

The publication said that Canada has become the third largest oil producer in the western hemisphere, with 3,000,000,000 barrels of proven oil reserve. Natural gas reserves were set at 14,000,000,-000,000 feet.

N. E. Tanner, president of Trans-Canada Pipeline Co., was quoted as saying that. Canada has' more than (5000 producing <^wells. Only bne jwell has been drilled for each 178 square miles of productive oil areas, compared to. one every 12 square miles in the United States.

"This in itiself gives some idea of what the future development in Canada may be," Mr. Tanner said.

Canada's average daily oil production was figured by the magazine at 260,000 barrels. I

Reeve Says Decision In 1956 On Proposed Miinieipal Hall Work

VICTORIA—Reeve Fred Norris of Oak Bay predicts that decision to build proposed new municipal hall on the site of the old high school on Oak Bay avenue will have to be. reached next year.

Crowded conditions at the present hall at Oak Bay avenue and Hampshire road .have become so serious that the regular council chamber has to be used as tem-; pbrary departmental offices. The project right now is blocked by the fact that School District No. 61 holds a lease, of thie former high school on the opposite side of the street. ,; ;_' .. ''.. ' '•;!:;"

In view of the school congestion at present, the proposed extensions to the jvilipws school, p^^^ of the curmit ;^ogram, w^ have ^p be compi^eil before the former high school^tkisi available. -

Plan To Reconstruct Broiad Street Subway

REGINA—Preliminary plans for rehabilitation of the Broad Street subway are to be commenced immediately by Haddin, Davis & Brown Ltd., consulting engineers with offices in this city and Calgary. Study on soil and structiures is to be imdertaken by Engineers N. L. Reid and IJ. Irving.

Portions of the. concrete walls of the 900-foot long subway, built in 1911, including the sidewalk retaining walls, have shifted their, positions.

r\ti

S^ — An overpass is faypreid tb-a subway to link tip the south and riprth sides of the city by the Calgary engineering firm of Haddin, Davis & Brown Ltd.^: which has just completed a survey-bf this area;;

• 1 ^ firm^^^^^^ that drainage would be poor in the proposed location at 2nd avenue east for a subway and that the cost of an overpass would be considerably less. The overpass which would accommodate both motor vehicles and pedestrian traffic would cost an estimated $350,000.

Another proposal for pedestrian traffic is-a $50,000 passage under the CPR tracks at the south end of Central avenue by the railway station, which could also serve as outlets to the various tracks in the event that a new station might be built in the,near future.

Financing of either project would be borne jointly by the board of transport commissioners, CPR and the City of Swift Current.

A new type anti-collision light has been installed on a Queen Charlotte Airlines DC-3 aircraft, and similar installations on the remainder of the fleet are expected to follow. The linit, an amber-colored, highrintensity flashing beacon light, is mounted on the tail and provides a signal of as much as 4600 beam candle power.

In addition to the high intensity feature, the flasher is so designed that when an observer is within five degrees above or below the light he will see approxinia'tely 80 flashes, of light per minute, whereas if he is between five and 20 degrees above or below the "collision course" level, he will observe only 40 flashes per minute.
