By George Weber
president Webber's Auto Electric
Service)

| SGfflCe)
The day following my last weeks
| article Of friendly criticism and what
hoped were practical suggestions
for bringing paying industries to
Augusta I was called to the tele-
phone and informed that such a
plan was impossible. To quote the
| exact words of my critic, I'VE can
not have any more factories here.
| There are no houses for workers.
Our streets are already too crowded
and we don't want a lot of dirty
soft coal smoke. Augusta is a city
of homes and we want to keep it
So"
No doubt there are others here
who have the same mental picture
of a factory in their minds. It is,
however, a distorted view they have.
With cheap electric power at hand
no intelligent factory management
/, would for an instant think of burn
ing coal for power. The greatest
natural resource which we have in
the State, cheap electric power is at
our command. 1t has been wisely
! protected and developed and fortu-
nately for our welfare and progress
| it has SO far been unhampered by
! State laws which would throttle it,
We must, however, use it or it is not
resource.
There Is Waiting Market for
"Ready-Cut" Homes
If there are no homes for work
ers, should our attitude be one of
| passive Indifference? Why not or
ganize an industry and capitalize
this shortage? There is room here
| for a plant for the ia abricatirg of
Ready -Cvt Homes" Such factories
are successful in other parts OF the
country and have a payroll of hun
dreds of Workmen, where they have
less natural advantages than we
have. Here in Augusta on one hand
we have the raw material, lumber
delivered to our door by the waters
of the kennebec. On the other hand,
we have the demand and the mar
ket. We could turn out Ready-Cut
Homes here cheaply and ship them
all over New England-and Incl
dentaIly relieve our own local hous-
ing shortage. No city in Maine is
any more favorably situated than
Augusta. AS long as we neglect
these opportunities our young peo-
pie will be tempted to go West. when
as a matter of fact there are five
latent opportunities here awaiting
them to one that they will be able
to find undc,clopcd in the West.

Why Ship the Raw Milk Away

Why Ship the Raw Milk Away
Here in Maine and in this imne-
date vicinity we daily ship carloads
of milk to Massachusetts. Likewise
we daily purchase back from Massa-
chusetts and the West carloads of
milk products. Can it be that there
is some mystery about the running
OF a creamery or Of making evap-
GRATED milk that we cannot solve ?
II so, let lis pledge the assistance of
our next Congressman to secure the
cooperation Of the Department of
Agriculture to show us how.
Around an evaporatcd milk factory
would spring up allied industries.
such as box makers. label makers.
can makers, etc, and the entire
community including the suburbs,
would benefit directly.
My friend and critic claimed our
city was overcrowdcd. l would like
to see the merchant in Augusta who
cannot serve more customers-or
the bank that has no more room for
deposits-or a church that has no
empty seats.
My motives in publishing these
articles have also been questioned. In
order that they may be plain to ev-
erybody l will explain them: Web
ber's Auto Electric Service is inter-
ested directly in the prosperity of
the community. Our business is the
sale and repair of storage batteries
and electrical equipment for auto
mobiles and We hold service con-
tracts with eleven different manu-
facturers for the sales and service
OF their product. Figured on a ba-
Sis of volume of business to car
registration we are the fifth largest
concern of the kind in New Erg-
land. We want this city and dis
trict to grow so that we can sell
more Willard Thread Rubber Bat
teries and repair more starters, gen
orators. and ignition systems. In
this immediate vicinity there are at
present 1850 automobiles registered.
We hope every one Of these car
owners will visit our service station
at 10 Dickman street and become
acquainted. We want this number
or satisfied customers to grow so
that we may grow likewise. Our
success as does the success of every
other enterprise in the city depends
entirely upon the prosperity of 9TH
ers. Our telephone number is Au-
gusta ~ and we will be pleased to
receive criticism or suggestions re-
garding these articles.
If my theories are wrong and nv
suggestions impossible of achieve
ment then let us explode them and
from the fragments perhaps we will
