Contractor Jack Frost has. given up

The only thing in the way of tele-
graphic communication that can reach
Gary fora few days to-come will be a

This is the time of the Syear when
the old hen sits asleep on thes perch
and dreams what she will do to the
flower beds next spring.

In the meantime let US hope that
the court bills that hayeabeen getting

GARY CHICAGO. SUBURB
Chicago Paper Is Quite
Willingsto Take Allsthe
Credit for Gary.

The small cost by which iron ore can
be shipped to Gary and the other cities
bordering on Lake Michigan by water,
promises in time to make the cities of
the Calumet region the greatest steel
producing and iron manufacturing*cen-
ter in the United States.
In an editorial in last night s. Chicago
Daily News, Chicago is given the credit
of becoming the steel center of the
country. While it is true, that the
plant Of the Illinois Stel company is
located in the city limits, still Chicago
itself cannot become a power in the
steel manufacturing business. The
over-crowded condition in Chicago at
the present time only tends to show
manufacturing plants will shun. Chica-
go and locate in citiessin the Calumet
region.
Why then should Chicago claim to
be the steel manufacturing center of
the country. The natural resources
the fine shipping facilities by rail and
water and the wonderful possibilities
Offered by Gary and the other cities
bordering Lake Michigan is the nucleus
which will bring them to locate in
this section. The editorial is as fol-
lows:
'Pittsburg is today the greatsiron. and
steel center of the country, but there
are signs that Pittsburg's supremacy
in this line must pass to the Industrial
area of the which Chicago is the center
The Pennsylvania city is situated amid
great coal fields. In former years iron
ore was mined in its vicinity in large
quantities, but now the ore used by
it's mills in the manufacture of iron
and steel is drawn largely from the
region at the head of the great lakes
1t is this fact that gives Chicago the
chance to acquire the supremacy as al
iron and steel producing center. IroI
ore can be brought to the foot of LAX,
Michigan cheaper than it can be takeI
to Pittsburg. Since the latter trip re
quires a rail haul for part of the dis
lance.
The three principal ingredient
which go to the making of iron an,
stel are the natural ore, the fuel an,
limestone. Limestone abounds nea
i Chicago. The iron ore can be brough
here at relatively small cost. Chicag
is near great coal fields. In so far a
the coal of Pennsylvania. with it's bet
tervcoking qualities, is required in som
of the steel making processes, Their
is more economy In bringing it or tn
coke made from it to this point thai
in taking the ore to Pittsburg. IF tn
coal is cooked near Chicago the ga
Toned as a by-product can be readil
marketed. Because Of these consider
atoms the greatest steel and iron max
ing plant in the United States is bein
established at Gary. which is a subur
of Chicago.
The presence of cheap iron and stes
in turn is an invitation to manufactur
ing plants which need them as a ray
material to come to this neighborhooC
1t is not surprising. therefore, that tn
great manufactures are seeking site
in the environs of Chicago. These ele
ments of growth in population and bus
mess must exercise an immense in
fiuence upon the great community
the coming years"
