Future 10 Bright.

Future 10 Bright.
The future OF the Keokuk Electro
Metals company seems to be exceed
ingly fair. The product which this
new local company will turn out has
been imported by the big steel mills Of
the country heretofore. The countries
importing the bulk OF 1t have been
Norway and Sweden. The war has
virtually cut OF much Of the shipment
of this product The war coupled
with the cheap prices Of electricity
obtainable IN the city, which Is the
home Of electric power, makes 1t pos.
sible for this company to compete
with the foreign markets. Even the
end Of the war would not stop this in
dustry. az the American manufactur
ers would have the edge.
In time it Is expected that some o..
the plants, such as will take care Of
this Northumberland steel In othe:
places now, will decide to locate in
KeokulS to be near the source OF Their
supply The allied industries OF Just
such company as the Keokuk Elec-
tro Metals company, it Is expected
will make plant OF considerable mag
nitude In the future, In fact some OF
the men who are at the head OF the.
company told the Industrial associa
officials that they believed the
