GETTING A POWDER PLANT

IN HE GOVERNMENT has arranged with the Dupont vow
der Co. through subsidiary company for the cree
ton Of government powder plant at Nashville, Tenn The
company will build the plant which will cost about $4OO0OO0
and will receive fee for its skill and services which expect
ed not to be than $OOOO0 During six months the
pany will manufacture powder and get everything in running
order before the government takes charge For hs service the
company will receive about three and oneha cents pound
with bonus upon reductions in the cost of production.
This arrangement reflects the good spirit that exists
tween big business and the government in supplying
terials.
Yet the patriotism represented in the transaction is consd-
eraby less than that of the who offers his body
vice at the front.
