'SHOE FACTORIES
CONTINUE RUNNING
PAPER MILLS CLOSE

The order OF Fuel Administrator
Garfield calling for the closing or
manufacturing plants using fuel for
operating power affected some or
Gardeners industries, while others are
unaffected. The huge plants of the
Hollingsworth & Whitney Co. and the
Warren Paper Co, located on the
banks of the Cobbossee stream are
closed The former was running on
Friday morning TO finish the run and
then shu: down. The Warren Paper
60. is also closed and both will remain
50, unless there is some change IN the
order. Although these two plants use
y vast anount Of water power. they
are also dependent on fuel for a part
Of their power.
Both the r. p. Hazard CO. and the
Commonwealth Shoe and Leather Co.
are TO continue their operations as
they use electricity which is generated
by water power for the operation OF
their machinery. The James Walker
4 Son Co. will also continue running
their plant as usual and for the same
reason as the shoe factories. The
kennebec BoX Go. in Randolph, 1t
would appear. are to get 10y with a
rush. for their plant is operated with
sawdust and shaviugs. fuel that is
produced by their own operations and
when this is insufficient they use
electricity. generated by water power.
This is a time when the value OF
water as 4 producer of power is more
apparent than ever before.
The new order is the principal topic
of conversation upon the streets and
one may hear all kinds Of opinions
freely expressed. The Monday clos
lug of stores and offices will he gener-
ally observed by all stores and office
