tract on which clay lies in some plac-
es 76 feet deep. The company also has
leases on a fifty-acre tract owned by
Joseph McDermott. The third tract is
over 200-acres, one-quarter of a mile
from the plant.
Experts who have analyzed the wide
variety of clay available to the com-
pany have been enthusiastic in their
reports. The silica content ranges
from 40% to 769, and colors possible
include gray, buff, brown, red and fire-
clay. The fusing point ranges frfom
2,670 to 3,030. Among the chemists
who have been consulted and have
given favorable analyses are Paessler
Co., Inc., of Wilkes-Barre, Mellon In-
stitute, Pennsylvania State College and
Harbison, Walker Laboratories. Sur-
veys have indicated that the plant can
manufacture brick at a cost which
will give it competitive advantage over
many other companies.
‘When it is completed, the plant will
have a capacity of 45,000 bricks a day
and will employ about forty men.
Visitors are welcome at the plant.
It can be reached most conveniently
from Dallas by following Route 115,
through Huntsville and Pike's Creek
to Red Rock, then over Red Rock
Mountain and into Lopez.
Officers of the company are James
R.' Oliver, president; Wesley T. Dad-
dow, chairman of the board; A. C.
Devens, vice-president; ‘Warden Kun-
kle, secretary-treasurer. Directors are

WEEKLY BUSINESS REVIEW |
REICHMAN’S SEASONED ADVICE
SAVES MONEY FOR TRAVELLERS
There was a time when you started
on a trip it was a matter of finding
your way as best you could and ask-
ing questions of people who sometimes,
you discovered, knew less than your-
self.
Towever. as the world moves on, spe-
cialists are developed in every line of
business and profession. It requires
years of study and experience to be-
come a qualified travel counsellor and
Joseph Reichman has such study and
experience to his credit.
In his travel bureau at 208 South
Main Street, Wilkes-Barre, every de-
tail of every method of travel is avail-
able quickly and a voyage may be
planned and arranged to the most
minute detail.
It is no longer the elite alone who
travel. Mr. Reichman knows the least
expensive and the shortest routes and
this service saves so much unneces-
sary expense that he makes it possible
for people of modest income to travel
widely. Many wonderful tours are
available at unusually low costs and a
visit to Mr. Reichman will repay any-
one considering a vacation this sum-
mer.

A Summary Of Happenings
In America’s Industrial
Circles
WHEAT CROP—Crop experts pre-
dict that the largest winter wheat crop
since 1931 is in the making and estl-
mate that the crop will run to 717,-
000,000 bushels, which would be some
30,000,000 bushels greater than last
year’s crop. It is believed that the
winter wheat crop alone will exceed
domestic needs by some 70,000,000 bu-
shels. Unless a sudden demand for
wheat develops from abroad it is likely
that farmers will receive less for
wheat this year than in several years
past. Early last week May wheat de-
clined to approximately 80 cents a
bushel, lowest - it has been in three
years, then British flour makers began
to buy and the prices rose.

LABOR AIDS CHINA—American la-
bor last week declared that it has a
vital stake in the war between China
and Japan. Labor's Committee for Ci-
vilian Relief in China announced that
already 4,000,000 American workers had
joined the movement which seeks to
raise funds to aid more than 30,000,000
Chinese civilians who have been vic-
timized by the Japanese invasion. The
committee pointed out that if Japan
succeeds in enslaving 420,000,000 Chi-
nese and in gaining control of that
country’s resources, she will soon flood
America. and world markets with
products made by cheap labor and
force American factories to either low-
er wages or shut down completely.
Tokyo carpenters get 5b7c a day.
painaers 68c a day, paper makers 40c

ly 23c a day, according to the United

OLIVER AMONG ACE AUTOMOBILE
MEN IN EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA
The efficient sales and service or-
ganization James R. Oliver has devel-
oped in his garage and display roooh
on Main Street, Dallas, is a symbol of
an American success story.
Mr. Oliver began his career in Meek-
er, where he opened his first garage.
As the Maxwell dealer, he made an
enviable sales record but as his busi-
ness grew he recognized the need for
a bigger market and in 1925 he open-
ed his garage in Dallas. Gradually, as
his reputation for square dealing
spread, prospective buyers came from
a wider and wider circle until his
agency became’ one of the outstanding
sales units in Eastern Pennsylvania.
Today Mr. Oliver's Packard and
Hudson headquarters and his large
garage prove the truth of the claim
that the world will beat a path to the
door of the man who does something ;
better than his neighbors. One of the
first to respond to any cause to boost
Dallas, Mr. Oliver is proprietor of a
business which spreads beyond the
borders of the town and attracts cus-
tomers from neighboring and Wyoming
Valley towns into Dallas.
