TO USE TERRA GOTTA

The Westinghouse Electric and
Manufacturing Company has con-
trscted with the Westinghouse
Church, Kerr Company to build four
new buildings at the South Phila-
delphia Works, Pa. The expansion
is intended to take care of the i'm
mediate needs incidental to the re-
moyal of the machine works (for-
merly the Westinghouse Machine
Company from East pittsburg, Pa.
The four buildings will be made
OF terra Gotta and steel similar in
construction and design of the pres
ent buildings. The size of the new
construction follows: Light ma
chine shop. one story, 500x130 feet.
This building will be used for
building small turbines for operat-
ing pumps and generators. Machine
Shop No. will be a duplicate of
the present machine shop No. 1,
with dimensions of 75Ox130 feet.
Ve-y large land and sea steam tur-
bines will be machined in this
building.
The erecting shop will be extend
ed 800 feet and will join the new
shop, No. 3, similarly as it does to
Nos. / and 3 All Of the work as
il progresses will move toward the
erecting shop for final assembly
and testing
A three-story building. 60ox5o,
will be constructed to provide
warehouse facilities. The third
floor of the building will be used
for manufacturing purposes.
Nearly all of the machinery nee
cssary for production purposes will
be transferred from the machine
Works, East Pittsburg, and will be
directly driven by motors, thus
eliminating all overhead shafting.

quantities has been discovered.
The new discovery of natural gas
in this district, II Is prophesied, will
supplement the supply upon which
thousands Of Pennsylvania homes
are depen to such an extent
that they will not be forced to sub
stitute coal for heating purposes on
account of gas shortage for many
years to come. II is an economical
godsend and will enrich thousands
of people who are investing their
money in this new sensational en-
terprise.
The McKeesport field is not a new
one. Over thirty years ago II was
opened by the Woods Mill interests
and the product piped In for indus
trial use. Many good wells were
put down at this time over an ex-
tensive area extending as far as
Washington County. At that time,
however. drilling was pushed down
only to the Elisabeth sand strata,
an average depth of 1,S00 feet. Tne
field was gradually exhausted and
upon the discouraging advice OF
biologists almost entirely aoan-
doned until 1916. at which time a
well was brought In on the Spiegel
farm. This hole turned out one OF
the biggest flows In the country and
IL was then that s. J. Brendel and
his associate, Mr.. Foster, OF Nc
Keesport, were inspired to prospect
through the district. a 'hunch" that
resulted last August In the greatest
discovery Of natural gas the world
Lhas ever known.

Much of the credit for this, mar
velous discovery Is due to the faith
and persistence Of Messrs. Brendel
and Foster. who. in spite of the con-
demnation of the field by geoloeists
