Butte 10 to Build Oil Refinery West of City Cemetery

The site covers 88% acres on ground owned by the Butte Sewer Pipe and Tile Company and offers rail spurs and wide space for buildings and tanks. A veteran eastern refinery superintendent will manage operations, arriving Monday night to oversee erection details. The plant is expected to boost Butte’s industrial payroll and secure crude oil from Montana fields. Herman Strassberger serves as secretary.
