DUPONTS AHEAD WITH

CONSTRUCTION OF

An announcement from Washington

Charleston, W. Va. has begun opera
tlons with the manufacture OF sui
phuric acid is particularly interesting
to Wilmington and to employees OF the
dupont Company, who brought the
plant which they are building for the
Government near Nashville, Tenn, into
operation ten days before.
When the Government decided to build
a plant at Charleston the dupont Com
pany was directed to proceed with the
construction work last October, but
after the work had been in progress for
a week the Government decided to take
il in hand itself and appointed Daniel
C. Jackling 10 supervise the construc-
ton. Mr.. Jackling took over the site
on which the dupont Company had
taken options and obtained all the blue
prints and working plans which the
company prepared for the plant. Later
the actual construction work was put
in the hands OF the ThOmpsOn-Starett
Company, which started work the first
Of the year at the point where the du-
Points had left off and with all Of the
preliminary surveys and working plans
In hand.
Later the Government decided to
build another plant near Nashville, and
this was turned over to the dupont
Engineering Company to conduct the
work. The original plans for "Old
Hickory'-which is the name Of the
Nashville plant-called for five units OF
100000 pounds capacity each Within
a short time this was increased to nine
units, and the request was made that
the work on both plants be pushed as
ra apidly as possible
Wilmington has been watching the
progress OF both plants with a great
deal Of interest and was proud Of the
fact that the Nashville plant. though
started a month later began actual op-
erations ten days earlier than the one

the latter had the full beneft Of all the
designs and plans worked out by the
DUPONT Company for the construction
