tined to produce only the raw material
ior eastern consumption and distribu-
ton in the west.
After years of experience the truth
OF the assertion that westward the
star or empire takes it's way became a
reaiity to us, and the corporation with
wnlcn l was connected realized that
the great middle west was fast be-
coming a manufacturing district. We
were SO much impressed with this that
our operations were extended to Buff
faio, n. T., and Kenosha. Wis, and
our energies have been directed to the
deve!opment of u business in these
localities which seemed so far away,
aiways as a supplement to our home
plants.
Proposal to Unite
The fabrication of copper and zinc
INTO form for general use originated in
the Nangatuck valley in Connecticut,
and as 1 have said the fathers of this
business believed their future was con-
fined to that locality. Fortunately for
us We have proved that the enlarge
ment OF our borders was not only
backed BY good Judgment, but added to
our Importance and prosperity.
About n year ago Mr.. Ryan sug-
gested to me that the logical trend of
events had convinced him and his as
socrates that the Anaconda Copper
Mining company should carry their Op-
eratlon to a point where they, as the
largest producers of the fundamental
elements of the brass business. copper
and zirc, should extend their opera
tons until they reached the ultimate
consumer west as we'll as east.
You who know Mr.. Ryan realize
the fact that his intuitions and judg-
ment are as nearly infallible as any
human being can be, and when he
brought his guns to bear on the Ameri-
can Brass company he soon convinced
me. as their representative, that we
should follow the star and make a Goa
lition in which Montana and Connect
cut should be the leading factors in the
We are both engaged in.
Sees Future In Great Falls
Together we had the elments of
success. he with his magnificent prop
crties anu ORGANIZATION, we with the ex-
perience of 100 years in fabrication,
with an organization of which l am per-
sonally very proud, for I have spent
nearly 80 years in creating it.
And so it came about that your
great state should combine with our
lesser territory. and unite experience
natural u together to show
he world what could be done with the
light disposition all around.
All this to my mind means great
development in the enlargement Of both.
md the star ! have alluded to will not
yet until u part of the joint business
will be extended until Great Falls and
other cities in your favored
may fabricate as well as produce

Il thank you most sincerely for your
Intention and will go from you with the
that | may soon have an oppor-

There's nothing that I enjoy more thar
to get close to men and to know chem
intimately; to feel that there is a per-
sonal touch between them and myself.
and that personal touch has been de.
monstrated and shown many a time in
the last few days.
in talking with Bishop Lehman this
afternoon, he asked me what nv i'm
pressions were about the industries of
| this state, about the natural resources.
and about it's people. and I told the
good bishop that words would fail me
to give an adequate description of Just
how he would feel toward the people,
the industries and the resources here

GlIie Not Too Old To Begin Again
"Mr. Gillie looked me over from
head to foot. We were down deep in
the mines. He turned and looked at
Colonel Farrell here to see if he would
give him n idea of what craft l
might be, but Tor some reason he
wouldn't listen. / asked him if he
didn't want to hire me. and he said
Yes. Mr.. Coe. we will give you a job,
but / would like to try you out first

Sees Steady Growth
THE results I need not speak Of, as
you know them far better than I do,
but coming from the outside l am i'm
pressed and amazed with it all. The
end is not certain as yet. In many ways
we are entering a new industrial era
and who can tell what might be in store
for Great Falls, Anaconda and Butte;
who knows what the next few years
will bring to this place from all this
energy, resource and erdeavor. l can't

the next 25 years is going to be

a faculty of making two blades grow in

Ryan and Mr.. Kelley have gone way

SHOULD BE SEEN FOR WHAT
IT'S

Those who say there is no need of
engineering qualifications for build
ing our roads do not possess those
qualifications but possibly do pos
sess an ambition to build roads.
One occasionally hears otherwise
sensible men sly: "All there is need
ed is cowmon sense" Common sense
and split log drag can accomplish
very gratifying results applied to
road building. But who would tax
common sense with the long expert
menting required to arrive at facts
which the engineer has at his fingers
ends?
Experience surely Is worth some
thing. The federal government and
most Of the State governments have
had that experience with road engi-
neers and none of them are aband-
oning that method. But really the
suggestion that the supervision Of
highway construction be taken from
the engineer and given over to some
one with a political pull for the place
is not worthy Of notice if there were
any assurance the public would real
ly ecN IL attempt for what it is.
