of making plans for new plants
even though construction does not
begin Immediately, the city coun-
Gil unanimously authorized Com
missioner Gronen Wednesday to
begin an investigation of prospec-
tive sites.
Gronen is an electrical engineer
and will make the investigation
personally. He was authorized by
the council to retain an assistant
for 60 days, at $3.50 month, to
help him check up his reports.
IF the state legislature isn't 60

side of the city limits, we won't
be able to handle the business Of
the Todd ship plant, or the army
post or any Of the other big in
dustries that we had figured on"

That's where you are wrong,

Bilrowe-Alloys Co. is asking us to
furnish 5000 kilowats of extra
