BIG BETHEL CONTRACT
MEANS PROSPERITY
Second Western Union Building In New
York City to Be Built of
Bethel Granite.

Bethel, June 9.-The new Western
Union building in New York City is
to be built of Bethel granite by the
terms of contract signed Yesterday
by the company's representative and
General Manager w C. Clifford for the
Woodbury. Granite Co. The price. of
the granite quarried and finished here,
free on board at this station, is two
and one-fourth million dollars $3.50
O00l. The amount Of granite required
will be approximately 100000 cubic
feet. The time limit for the filling of
the contract is three years
For several weeks a small force Of
men has been at the quarries CLEARING
up in anticipation Of the signing Of
this contract, whilh was deemed cer-
tainty because the original new build
ing of the same company on a site adj
joining that of the proposed building
was built of Bethel granite few years
ago. and had the war not interyened
the counterpart of that building would
have been completed by this time.
The granite industry has been dead
in Bethel fer three years. due entirely
TO the war. except that its revival has
been delayed a few months by the
wage disagreement. Bethel granite Is
used almost exclusively for building.
and for that reason the war hit Bethel
harder than most granite towns. Tho
contract for the Western Union build
ing of six years ago WAS one OF the
largest ever filled here. and the amount
of granite required for the proposed
building j. nearly the same. The pricc,
OF course. j. much greater.

Just when the bottom was about to fall
out of the building business. has never
