Atlantic Compress Lowers Cotton Fire Rates at Atlanta Plant
The Atlantic Compress company reports completed improvements at its Atlanta facility including fire walls and extended sprinkler protection. Captain J C Haskell says insurance rates on stored cotton will drop by up to 75 percent, with further gains from a Webb high density attachment to store more baleage and reduce ocean freight rates. The plant, opened in 1907, now houses three presses plus the new attachment, boosting capacity and efficiency for shipping cotton amid wartime rate changes.
