NEW COMPANY LEASES
 THAMES STREET FACTORY

The factory property on Thames street, near Thames square, once well known us the '. 5. Rogers woodwork ing machine shop and more recently occupied by the Norwich Nickel &s Brass Co. and the J. k P2lnerberg Son., Inc, has been leased by re- gently organized and incorporated company, the Atlantic Container Fro ducts Co.
 The new company will take pes session April 1st and wlll soon begin to put the machinery in so that man ufacturlns can be started early in May.
 The Atlantic Container Products Corporation was organized undec the laws of the state of New York, with the main office here in Norwich and a. branch office in New Tort; city The officers are II. T. Von Franken- berg, President; Walter F. Turner, vice president; and Albert NJ Van HaSenen, treasurer.
 The Chamber of Commerce assist ed in locating a factory and the ohlc- CTS and committees have been very attentive in rendering every possible help in finding q suitable location and to get this industry for Norwich. In regard to the new company, MT. Van Nagenen and MT. Turner said i Monday that the company is to be managed by the officers of the At- lantic Carton Corporation, whose fac tory is in Greeneville. The carton company will continue it's business in :, the present factory, and 6 new and larger factory is being planned. The product Of the new company is close 1 ly allied to that of the Atlantic Car i ton corporation. but 6 separate org anization is required.
 ] Much interest is attached to the product to be made, the "Metalock | shipping case, a self sealing shipping case, requiring no adhesive or tape to securely close and lock it. As the name suggests, the ends are locked in
 the box by metal strips, and the
 company controls the exclusie rishts
 to manufacture and sell this patented case tn all states east Of the Missis- 1 sippi river. except in the state Of Illi- pois. They will also manufacture the standard shipping case. The merits o1
 this Dat ss ted case are valued highly
 by the largest shippers of packa gt
 goods in the country, and the en, tr2uce of this ease is being watched l with great interest. It is expected 1 that on account of the a.s3nishine | annual losses by shipers and freigh' ard express carriers, through Dil-
 fering. the Federal authorities will in. Vestigate the merits claimed for this
 article.
 The number of employees required
 at the start will be about forty, anC
 they will have to be trained in the
 operation of the special machiner,
 required. \ larger force will be add.
 cd until the maximum number 0
