1926 BRINGS NEW,
BEAUTIFUL GARMENTS

Flappers Of twenty-five years age
were clad in crude garments as com.
pared with those of the present day
girl. Then, the first demand was for
cheaper articles, made in a cheaper
way. Such was true Of the rest of the
family. Today, the story is much diff
ferent. Merchants from all over the
territory come to San Antonio each
spring and fall trade meeting to select
the finest and most attractive clothing
to be sold in their stores. During
1926, South Texas merchants will find
some very attractive garments, lcca
jobbers. manufacturers and wholessl

planning MILL INDUSTRY.

The greatest increase during the
pest year or two has been accomplish
ed by the planning mills and other fac
tories handling lumber products, twen-
ty of which. employing 613 people,
manufacture goods totalling $4,000, 900
annually. Five shops operated by steam
and electric railroads doing car and
geenral shop construction and repair
work, employ some hundreds of peo-
pie, whose annual output is $2,S6O, 900,
excluding the value of the materials
used.
San Antonio factories are showing
remarkable increase each year, most
ly caused by the fast development Of
huge trade territory and also by the
gradual realization By the people in
San Antonio and its territory that an
energetic use of the true home indus
try spirit can build Southwest Texas
in the same way it has already de-
veloped other well known and fast
growing, though comparatively young
industrial states.

MANY REFINERIES.

San Antonio's greatest industry at
present consists Of petroleum refining.
seven refineries being located in and
near this city, which have an APP
proximate annual output Of $780,
900. This is very closely followed by
refineries of cotton seed products, six
concerns manufacturing products
valued at $5,750,0O0 annually.
Flour and feed mill products come
third with nine concerns having an
output of S5,607 900. Printing, pub
fishing. engraving, etc. follows very
closly after flour and feed mill prod
ucts. These plants employ 400 peo-
pie, their output being "a, 147 900. Six
slaughtering and meat packing con-
Germs. employing almost 800 people,
manufacture annually $3.730,000 worth

NEED LOCAL SUPPORT.

During the past utCdue lut WOTk OF
the San Antonio Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION has been instrumental in con.
vincing the people of Southwest Texas
that factories cannot exist in any com.
munity which is not willing to support
them, he says.
San Antonio is a great unwieldy city
which will shortly be nationally recog-
nized as one Of the South's most i'm
portant manufacturing centers. There
is no obstacle in the way Of this, as
almost every asset is possessed here
to make this an accomplished fact.
There Is available in this city an rjun-
dance of all fuels, natural gas at less
than eighteen cents per 1000 feet for
the larger users, petroleum, Ignite,
bituminous cokeing coal, potential wa
ter power and an unusually big mar
ket awaiting development. A plentiful
type at reasonable price adaptable
TO almost any line of manufacture, and
an adequate transportation system is
possessed by San Antonio.
BIG ASSETS.
San Antonio's raw materials are
one Of its most valuable assets. They
are so greatly diversified and of such
quality as to absolutely insure this
city's future industrial development.
In quantity many Of these materials
are limitless. All are within easy
shipping distance of this city, while
some are located almost within the
city limits. The very highest grade
magnetic and hematite iron. one of
San Antonio's greatest potential as
sets. is present in unlimited deposits
to the northwest % San Antonio.

8. A. FACTORIES
PAYROLL At
S22,000,000

With an annual industrial pay roll
of 22.OOO,0OO from 600 plants, San
Antonio is q manufacturing city of
great Importance. Its output amounts
to approximately $6S,OO0,0O0 yearly,
says G. C. Leel, secretary Of the San
Antonio Manufacturer Association.
Although this figure may seem enor-
nous, il does not include many other
plants. which are really factories,
such as gas and electric plants, gov
eminent manufacturing and repairing
shops, battery charging. vulcanizing,
milk bottling and distributing, small
shoe makers and repairers, tailoring.
blacksmith and other similar shops, he
says.
There is no manufacturing center
in San Antonio, the plants being dis
tributed all over the entire city. Most
of them are located along the numer-
Gus railroad lines and in locations
easily reached by truck from the rail-
road loading points.
FACTORIES INCREASE.
San Antonio is not dependent upon
the idiosyncracles of any one line OF
industry, but is built solidly on a
greatly diversified variety of manufac-
lures. The fluctuations and possible
undesirable conditions of any few
markets solely affecting several lines
OF industry at any one time therefore
cannot detract from the industrial
prosperity Of the city as a whole.
In 1900 San Antonio possessed 124
factories. employing 2947 people. with
an annual output Of 5000, 100. Four
teen years later these San Antonio
plants had increased to 225 establish
ments, employing 5133 people. with an
annual output Of s1S.107. 900. In
1890, at the present rate Of progress,
1t is conservatively estimated by the
San Antonio Manufacturers Associa-
tion that the industrial pay roll will
amount to approximately $53, 1868. 900,
to be distributed among $4,000 fac
tory workers, who will turn out manu-
featured products to the value Of
S197 800, 900. This is as sure to ma
terialixe as it is humanity possible to
predicate such matters.

MORE VESSELS EQUIPPED RADIO COMPASS BEARINGS

NEW YORK, Nov. 3. (P)-The De- partment of the navy has just an- nounced that the Communications di- vision had sent radio compass bear ings to 16 per cent more ships in the three months ended September 30 than in the previous three months. The announcement by the depart ment follows in full:
 An increase of 16 per cent of ships served with radio compass bearings during the three months ending Sep tember 30 over the preceding quarter is reported by the Communications divisions of the Navy department. The increase was largely due to a wider use by merchant vessels.
 An increase of approximately r per cent in the number of bearings is likewise reported. A total of 60,895 bearings were given during the past quarter, in comparison with 51,746 in the preceding quarter. Twenty-seven thousand, three hundred and eighty. six ships were served during. the quar- ter ending September 30, as compared with 23,444 ships in the preceding quarter.

 A device known as the Emery Machine has a squeezing strength of 2,300,000 pounds, pull of 1,500,- 900 pounds, and a twisting power of the same strength. An impact machine is able to deliver a steady succession of pile-driver blows. On both of these machines instru- ments are fixed to record the effect of the applied force.

Research at U. s. Bureau of Standards Helped Tall Buildings Withstand Ter rife Winds.

7HILE thousands of dwell \" ings and smaller commer-
 .ss cial buildings were wreck tkAsGXYI ed and torn asunders by
 the recent hurricane that overwhelmed the Florida penin- sula, the great majority of tower ing structures like that of the Miami Daily News, rising hundreds of feet into the air, suffered little serious injury.
 Such tall, and comparatively slender structures, it might nat urally be supposed, would be liable to suffer most from the appalling force of winds blowing with a ve- locity of over a hundred miles an hour. That in most cases the sky scrapers of Florida emerged with only minor damage, is new evil dence of the manner in which man, with the aid of science, is triumph ing over the forces of nature.
 At the Bureau of Standards
 In the final analysis, the ability of the skyscraper to endure the tremendous buffets of the hurri- cane is due to the strength and de- sign of it's steel frame. Research concerning the strength of steel, carried on by the United States Bureau of Standards, Washington, D. C., is largely responsible for the good record made by Florida's tow ering structures of steel and stone.
 In the huge wind tunnel of the Bureau. of Standards, models of skyscrapers have been subjected to wind pressure equivalent to a gale with a velocity of 118 miles an hour The models corresponded in shape and proportion to various types of buildings. Seventy holes were bored in each wall, and forty nine through the roof
 The models were mounted on re- volving bases. so that the effect of shifting winds could be simulated by revolving them gradually through thirteen different expo sures. The air, forced through the holes in walls and roof. was con- veyed by rubber tubes to recording instruments. These instruments

carbon filaments, connected by wires to electric recording devices. Any effect the pressure may have on the shape increases or lessens the resistance between the contact points on the filaments. This change in resistance is registered on the recorders.
 Repeated tests in the wind tun- nel, and with the machines em- ployed by the Bureau, have en- abled the Bureaus scientists to determine with mathematical &C., curacy the effect of wind pressure upon skyscrapers, and the exact amount of compression, torsion, or impact that the steel frame can bear.
 Such data has made it possible for architects and engineers to erect tall and graceful structures that when properly designed, as the Florida hurricane has shown, are proof against the widest con- vulsions of the elements.
