BOARD OF CONTROL INVESTIGATE
ING QUESTION UNDER ACT
OF LEGISLATURE.
MANY STONE DEPOSITS
IN STATE SUITABLE
Immense Outlay Of Money Necessary
/ to Build and Equip Plant--Investi-
cation Of Possibilities Prompted by
Prevailing High Prices-Business
Now Under Control of Steel Trust.
pecial to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 23.-The recent
legislature placed on the state board of
control the duty of Investigating the
possibilities of the state entering into
the manufacture of cement. The con-
troll board can caf1 on the state geolo-
sist and his assistants and on other
state departments for assistance in it's
Investigations. The board has not yet
outlined it's plan in this investigation
but expects to give in consideration in
the coming weeks
From surveys heretofore made by the
state Seologist 1t Is evident that there
are many limestone deposits in the
state suitable for cement manufacture.
Some of these deposits, however, are
not convenient to q railroad or to any
market or to coal. The shipping facil-
tiles, cost of coal and similar prob
LENS enter into the matter OF prac-
teal of limestone deposits
suitable to cement making.
1t is also recognized that the estab-
lishment of cement plant takes a
lot Of money. The capitalization OF
successful plants now in operation Is
up into the millions. 1t would there
fore require a big outlay of money, II
the state We're to erect a plant. Prop
erly managed, however, it Is believed
the state would find the plant a good
investment.
Prompted by High Prices.
This investigation OF the possiDiIl-
ties of cement manufacture on the part
of the state was prompted by the prices
now asked for cement and the disad-
vantage which boards of supervisors
experience in trying to purchase ce-
ment for bridge work The cement
will not sell to boards
of supervisors at any advantageous
prices and in many cases it is not pos
sible for the boards to buy cement at
all.
1t was charged on the floor of the
senate during the debate on cement
in this state that the steel
trust now owns the cement plants in
this country When it was discovered
that the Stag which had heretofore been
entirely wasted around the steel mills
could be used to advantage in the man
ufacture Of cement the steel manufac-
turers became interested. Eventually
they got control Of the cement bust
ness.
The state highway commission has
been making a fight against the cement
trust for some time 1t has found the
problem OF, securing cement for bridge
worls at, anything like advantageous
prices a most difficult one.
