The representative of q large Pa

pany recently visited Andres Garcia,
inspector genera, Of consulates for the
Carrenza government and Gen. Fran
cisco Gonzales. commander Of the
Juarsx garrison, and consulted with
them regarding the erection Of .
81. 900, 900 cement plant in Juarez to
utilize the great shale beds which are
to be found at the foot of the Juarex
mountains. This material has been
tested and found to be good for ce-
mont making. The supply is said by
experts to be inexhaustible and ths
shale beds are located near enough to
the railroad to make haulage costs low.
The representative of the American
cement company Is being given every
encouragement by the Carranza offi-
cials. They realize the Importance Of
having such plant on the border
where It's product can be shipped to all
points in the interior at low cost.
While many Of the buildings in Mex
leo are built OF adobe. the larger build
ings are made Of brick and stone, con-
crete having been little used in con-
struction work In the interior because
Of the comparative scarcity Of cement.
With the construction Of plant to
manufacture cement here. many Mex
ican laborers who are now forced to go
to the United States in search of em-
ployment will be employed and, be-
cause OF the lower cost Of labor in this
country, it will be possible to sell the
finished product of the plant at a much
lower rate than that prevailing in the
United States, the promoters say.
