= great thing for the stone workers
y the State because they can all fiji
. employment. Had granite alone be'
ID used only about 100 granite worke
% in the State would receive emplo
u ment, the other workers would ha
70 to come from outside States, becau

70 the State. The same can be said
10 sandstone. The marble will all
70 dressed here, and consequently a gre

u State than if the building was to
~ of granite exclusively. He states th
