This Is high praise indeed, coming from a man who is noi only acqainted with the mineralo gical value of the North Carolina de posits, but who was actually engag ed in the china manufacturing busi ness before entering' the service of the government as an expert in clay mines. His visit to the city was in the capacity of a government official and in answer to Invitation from sev eral business men of the city who wanted expert advice on the matter in question. Judging from the interest in the meeting and the declaration by the expert tbat a fine opportunity exists for the establishment of a plant here it is more than probable that a com pany will be organized in a short while looking to the starting of the china industry. Mr. Watts was of the opinion that the kaolin in the crude state could be laid down in Charlotte for about $2 per ton and could be refined at from $9 to $10 per ton and it was his further opinion that it would be a very profitable industry. As to the Quality. Mr. Watts said in part; “I feel safe ih saying hat nowhere in the United States can a finer quality of kaolin be secured than in the w»jstern part of North Carolina. Texas ranks next in the production of koalln of fine qua! Ity. In Dresden, Germany, and Copen hagen, Denmark, the kaolin used in the manufacture of the fine china- w'are of thosec ountries is of fine quality but it does not surpass that of v.^estern North^ Carolina. “I should advise that if a manufac turing plant be established in Char lotte, it should ije confined exclusive ly to the turning out of a high grade uroduct. There is not a manufacturer of high-priced china in the United States today who is not making hand some profit from his plant. A second reason why I advise directing atten tion to high class products is because there are extremely few manufactur ers of high grade chinaware in the United States and the demand for high class Is steadily on the in crease.” As to cost of manufacture As to Cost of Manufacture. Mr. Watts was asked about the cost of manufacture and gave some very Interesting facts along this line which his hearers carried away with them to meditate upon. Fuel rates in the section where thep lant is to be located is an important consideration. Mr. Watts related that when he was engaged in the manufacture of tele phone insulators in upper New York state, he used kaolin from eastern Tennessee and made a profit from it using Tennessee coal at $3.25 per ton; while competitors in east Liv erpool, Ohio, in the center of the coal belt, and Akron, O., the heart of the gas belt, operated at a loss. Mr. Fred Oliver stated for the ben efit of the assemblage that Tennes see coal could be secured in Char lotte at $3.25 per ton, while the Pocahontas variety could be obtain ed at $3.50 or $3.55 per ton Mr. Watts said in view of that fact that he believed a plant here would pay handsomely. He said he would recommend that the service of an expert ceromic or pottery engineer be secured, one who knew the bus iness in every phase, and that he should bring with him 15 or 16 skill ed workmen to begin the work. A two kiln plant, he thought, ( could be established for about $30,000. To a question as to what migtit be expected as a profit for the first year, Mr. Watts stated that it was a difficult question to answer, but that he thought 8 per cent during the second year would be a conservative estimate. He thought the third year ought to show a profit of something like 10 pier cent and . the fourth year 12 per ceint.* These were only an es timate, however, ? he. said, and much depended upon' the reputation made by the goodS‘In market for the> first year or twp^ ‘ Beanti .tlw Sis&fttiare of NOTICE Having execdtor of the esttite' -deceased, late Of-.
