Why Potteries Will
Win in Oklahoma

@NE-THIRD Of the weight of
pottery is flint and it IS
~ probable that Oklahoma's
vast flint formation will furnish
grade suitable for that purpose The
chlci expense OF pottery plant
next TO labor, is fuel The gas
supply at Oklahoma City has been
secured against early exhaustion by
reason OF its enormous acreage.
Another important advantage is an
abundance Of cheap oil which can
be substituted for gas
Owing to the difference in freight
rates the raw materials could cost
Is percent more than al eastern
plants without preventing profitable
operations.

Enamel Plant May

MO sanitary enamel ware is man

4 yet high freight rates on en-
amel and the low rate on the raw
product permits Of profitable manu-
iacture IN the southwest, where
cheap fuel good distribution tacll'-
ties and good labor conditions exist.
Oklahoma City offers all these ia
cilltlcS
The increased cost oi output a.
Oklahoma City over St. Louis Is
estimated to he $2l0 per ton. The
freight on iron enamel from St
Louis 20 Oklahoma City in car lots
is Sl4.S0 per ton. For distribution
from Oklahoma City It would have
an initial advantage OF $40 a ton
and could meet St. Louis at the
Oklahoma Missouri line in less than
carlo shipments after making
proper allowance for lOH cents per
100 pounds greater production cost
at Oklahoma City From that point
southwest an Oklahoma City plant
would have a clear advantage.
