FLOATING CONCRETE PLANT
FOR BANK REWRITING

Floating, mixing and distributing
plant, shown in the May Popular Me-
chanics Magazine, has greatly SIM
plified the construction of concrete
revetments along the banks of the
Mississippi River. A tall steel tower
at one emu of large scow gives the
required elevation for chuiting the ma
terial. Since the outfit travels along
as the work progresses, it has enabled
operations to move at more rapid
rate than was heretofore possible.

a bumptious German a commission
as captain. AT the end of the inter-
