START CEMENT A

The South Dakota Cement com
mission has awarded the general
contract for construction of the state
owned cement mill to be located at
Rapid City to j. C. Buckbee & Co.
Chicago engineers.
The plant will cost $4,000 900 and
work is expected to begin as soon as
conditions permit, it is stated.
Rapid City was selected as the loca-
ton because it lies in the center of the
limestone field and at the foothills of
the Black Hills mountains, providing
means Of gravity conveyance.
There are thousands Of uncovered
acres OF stone rich in colcium carbo-
nate of lime, abundant gypsum and
shale in the Rapid City region. Secre-
tary Of State Cement Commission
Hunt explained. "The state has no
intention Of interfering in the field Of
individual enterprise" Secretary Hunt
said, but plans to lead the way in
development of South Dakota's re-
sources for cement manufacture, which
private enterprise has not yet seen
lit to undertake."
The issuance Of 100000 public
obligation bonds by the state, Mr..
Hunt explained, was intended for the
development Of state al well
as improvements.
