FUTURE OF THE PLANT
Is NOW PROBLEMATICAL

don & Freedman of New York
Will Secure, Plant

Confirming the news story carried
IN The News Wednesday morning
that the picric acid plant would re
vert to the government telegram
was received in Brunswick yesterday
from Director of Sales Sloan that
confirmation of the sale of the plant
to Gordon and Freedman of New York
is expected
AS previously stated in The News
the Associated Manufacturers of AT
lanta with New York connections nad
signified their intention of turning
the property back to the government
after their bid had been formally ac
cepted and the plant turned over
to them for disposition, The inform
ltion that the picric plant had fallen
into the hands of the Associated Man
4 ufacturers was received with enthusi
asm in Brunswick as it was stated
THAT the property would be immediate
vi developed for manufacturing pur
iposes on an extensive scale necessitat
ing the employment of hundreds of
skilled workmen. a.....
It is generally conceded that the
withdrawal of all further considera
tion of the Associated Manufacturers
comes as a distinct disappointment to
the city of Brunswick generally
where it was thought that the plant
being put into operation by the man
ufacturing enterprise would prove a
great asset 70 the city in various
ways.
In a communication received from
Secretary ]. ]. Conway OF the A:socia
ted Manufacturers it was stated that
the reason of the withdrawal of his
associates was attributable to the fact
that they had been unable to get the
proper deeds to the plant and the
real estate holdings connected with
1t That they had lost time and money
and incidentally an illimitable
amount of patence-in an enioavor
20 secure possession of the property
Under these conditions it was thought
best to withdraw their bid from fur
gher.. consideration by the govern
ment.
In the event the plant is sold to
Gordon and Freedman, which is now
more than probable, the future CT the
plant is conjectuarl. This firm is one
of the largest salvage concerns In
New York and the conclusion is that
they will Junk" the property if their
bid which is the second highest and
the one now under consideration is
accepted.
lit is the consensus of opinion how
ever among contractors that the pic
ric plant could not be successfully
salvaged. 1t is pointed out that TO
remove the buildings and their ap
purtenances would necessarily cost
more than the material could be sold
for and that if the purchasers are to
make profit on their investment the
plant will have to be disposed of i'll
! its present shape.
, 1t has been intimated that should
r their bid be accepted Gordon and
r Freedman will cooperate with the
business interests of Brunswick in

MOURN LOSS OF HEIRL00MS

by Hun Invaders.

Millions of dollars worth Of beau
tiful and picturesque scarfs that for
merly adorned the heads of Rouma-
nian women have disappeared as q
result of the war, many Of them be-
ing carried of by invaders. American
Red Cross workers report that re-
placing these treasured possessions is
one Of the few services they have
been unable to render the stricken
Roumanians. but they have promised
the next best thing, encouragement
for silk and textile makers to re-
sumo operations that will furnish
the requisite materials.
When the war came to Roumanis
there were $4,000, 900 worth of these
scarfs on the heads of its women.
They were varicolorsd, of very fine
texture and always attracted the
travellers attention, because they
were heirlooms handed down from
mother to dsushtsr, and great care
was taken to prSserve them for gen.
srations The invading troops soon
begsn helping themselves to the
scarfs, and women who tried to hide
the precious adorments were usually
found out and punished.

Joint Use of Tools.

One Of the principal reasons
why farming has been unproft-
able, is that a complete outfit of
tools and machinery costs such
a very large sum. 1t is a tre-
mendous tax on an industry the
size of the ordinary farm.
Many authorities say this stu
alton should be met by farmers
agreeing to exchange tools and
machinery Some farmers have
always done that and have there
by saved a great deal of money
and labor. Others always get
into disputes, and the exchange
agreement breaks up in row.
