Idaho faces postwar development push amid mine and road woes
Holidays and flu slow state activity but a Talache mine road remains a priority after a WPB ruling blocks funds. Snow removal and access to tungsten operations are in question as Idaho's highway system strains under mine and timber programs. A Planning Board session on January 10 will review postwar development plans and regional Northwest states efforts. Bert Wright is on leave due to illness. J O Newcomb fills in. An aviation council considered Bert Zimmerli's Spokane Boise air route idea to connect northern and southern Idaho via Lewiston and Coeur d Alene and Reno. The Mesa Orchards manager will depart for Mesa this week.
