TINPLATE WORKS IN WORLD
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
McKEESPORT, Pa., June 2L—Al
ready possessing the largest tube
works in the world, McKeesport’s
prestige as a big mill center will be
materially increased before the end
of June when more new tinplate mills
that have been under construction for
months, are completed, giving Mc
Keesport by far the largest tinplate
works in the world.
The combined plants will then con
sist of 44 mills. The next largest tin
plate works consists of M2 mills. It
also is located in Western Pennsyl
vania.
The cost of the new mills and a |
power plant will be $2,200,000, making!
the cost of the whole plant about $5,
000,000. The plants now employ 1,-j
000 men and women. When the new
mills are all in operation the working
force will be about 3,000.
The capacity of the works will be
4,000,000 boxes of tin a year, which is
over half of the tinplate production
of the country and valued at $18,000,
000 to $20,000,000. The payroll will
be $ ’.,000,000 a year.
Tinplate business is fine. The local
mill and other plants are working at
capacity, but cannot supply the de
mand. Big concerns are more anxious

they are about prices.
From a small plant of ten mills
placed in operation in 1905, the plant
of the McKeesport company has in
less than a dozen years grown to be
the greatest works of the kind in the
world. McKeesporters take particu
lar pleasure in the thought that the
men who established it are McKees
porters and are still at the head of it.
Improvements lor the welfare ot
men and women employed in some de
partments of the works have already
been made.
Some time after the new mills have
been working smoothly and every
thing is in ship-shape, day for in
spection is to be set, when men prom
iment in the manufacturing world are
to be entertained for a day.
