lO8 COTTON MILLS
ARE OPERATING IN
MEXICO, DATA SHOWS
Manufacturers Plan Exten.
sion of Industry in
Southern Republic.

Monterey, Mexico. March 2s.-
Some interesting figures are given
in recent report issued by the treas
ury department of the Mexican gov
eminent and published in the official
newspaper, "Revista de Hacienda"
showing that there are 40 cotton
factories in the republic, of which
10S are in full operation and 80 are
shut down for various reasons.
The capital invested in buildings
and machinery is 72,107, 092.6S pesos.
The total sales by the factories in
operation from May /, to October 81,
1923, amounted to F,755, 705.30
pesos.
The output was 152 ,937 $40 meters
of different kinds of material and
634, O63 dozen shirts, stockings and
other articles.
The total quantity of cotton used
was 1920, POO kilos.
These factories gave work to 2S.-
4S4 men. 6702 women and 304G chill
dren, the average wage for an eight
hour day being S204, $3.50 and 81
centavos, respectively.
The strong impetus given to cotton
raising in this section, particularly
around Aldamas, where the soil and
climate are peculiarly adapted to cot
ton raising, promises to make the
state of Nuevo Leon one of the most
important cotton growing sections of
Mexico.
Mexico consumes much more cotton
than it produces and for this reason
there always is a good market for the
commodity. A considerable acreage
was planted in cotton this year. Next
year the farmers are planning on
greatly increasing this acreage.
New cotton gins are being erected
at some of the big cotton farms To-
Gated in the heart of the Mexican cot
ton belt, near the city of Torreon,
according to reports, and as there has
been a great deal of rain during the
early part of the present year, it is
expected that the crop will be the
largest in the last six or seven years.

DRIVER OF TRUCK
 ESCAPES INJURIES New Britain Man Hurt When Ma
 chine Crashes Into Pole AUTO TURNS OVER ON SIDE
No Change in Officers of ,ings Bank al Annual Meeting - Wilcox and Clark Make Gifts to Wilcox Cemetery observation-disclosures.

Alex Ahlberg of New Britain, drive
 of the Clark Bakery Co. truck of tha
 city, had a narrow escape from seri
 ous injury this morning at about !
 o'clock, when the truck crashed into
 telegraph pole in East Berlin a
 Monument corner, splitting the pole
 and considerably damaging the ma. chine.
 According to the story of witnesses
 Ahlberg was rounding the corner al a moderate rate of speed, when the car shot to the right and into the pole with a terrific crash and turned over on its side. It was said that the car was heavily loaded at the time.
 Ahlberg climbed out of the wrecked truck and, outside of slight injury to his arm, was uninjured, He exam- ined the car for cause for the acci- dent and found that nut had dropped off the wishbone.of the truck, the wishbone dropping and causing the driver 10 lose control of the ma chine.
 Those who witnessed the occurrence expressed wonder that the man was not hurt seriously, as the impact had tendency to throw the driver against the wheel. Had the machine turned to the left instead of to the right 1t is probable that it would have crashed into one of the houses on that side of the road or into the iron fence sur. rounding the soldiers monument.
 Ahlberg was headed toward Mid- dletowh at the time of the accident.
 Gifts Arc Made.
 Frank l.. Wilcox of Berlin, has given to the Wilcox cemetery asso- citation of East Berlin one and one half acres of land in that town to be used as a part of the cemetery. The land adjoins the present property and will increase the size of the cemetery to about four acres. This gift was accepted at a special meeting of the association held last night at the home of Robert o. Clark of East Berlin.
 The property was presented as a gift and was accepted with thanks by l the association. The plot of land has | been laid out by an engineer and will | present good appearance when com pletely finished.
 It is interesting to note that the original land for the cemetery asso- citation was given by the late Daniel Wilcox, grandfather of the present head of the family in Berlin. Daniel Wilcox was the first person to be l. buried in that cemetery. Samuel Wilcox, father of Frank Wilcox, also made gift of considerable land to the association in 1880.
 Another gift of importance was also accepted at the meeting last night. | This was from Robert O. Clark, prob t ably the best known citizen in East I Berlin. and one of the men who has 1 done gveat deal toward forwarding interest. Mir. Clark pro- posed that he erect a new fence for { he front of the cemetery. The fence f will consist of brick and iron. There a will be brick posts two feet thick | a md two feet across at stated intervals n ,long the front of the property. There O rill also be brick base come cting E hese posts.
