towns as large as Columbia with a
maximum supply of ice at all seasons
of the year.
Running at full capacity with plen-
ty of labor available, the Hetzler
plant has a capacity of fifty to sixty
tons of ice day. When other towns
last summer were in danger of an ice
famine which forbode serious conse-
quences, owing to the fact that little
natural ice was stored last winter,
Columbia had no shortage. There
were no restrictions whatever on the
amount anyone could buy in Colum-
bia at any time last summer.
During this countrywide ice short
age Hetzler Brothers could have sold
their entire output in large ship
ments at a premium over the price
charged the retail trade here, but
only the surplus was shipped out of
town. Fifty meE were on the payroll
Of the Hetzler Brothers ice company
and packing plant during last July
and August.

A NEW POsTOFFICE

, Columbia needs new postoffice
building The present office has
proven inadequate for some time and
every day the officials feel the lack
Of room and mailing facilities. Not
only is the need felt here in Columbia,
but it is evident to outsiders. The
inspector for federal buildings for
this district who made an inspection
here on May II was emphatic in his
statement to that effect.
Congressman Nelson has already
been in consultation with the post
office authorities in Washington in
regard to a federal building here. Let
US hope he will exert all his energy
to bring about this improvement.
