Outlook for Coal and Clay Industries in 1933
Nelsonville as a backdrop, the 1933 outlook for coal and paving brick industries shows cautious retrenchment. Ohio coal output may dip to 13–14 million tons after strikes. U S bituminous production also falls from 1981 and 1982 figures. Road-building projects sustain Nelsonville and Logan brick plants, with state highways upgrading Route 31 and Route 13 and new concrete bases, while municipalities slash expenditures and await highway funding decisions. Local civic groups monitor proposed routes and await definite action in weeks ahead.
