Ice Plant Threatens Ice Price War in Atlanta
Chattanooga financier F O Rettig and A J Teague of Columbus have bought the Central of Georgia property in Atlanta to install a 100 ton daily ice plant. The absorption-type machinery will start work by summer, promising lower retail ice prices as Rettig targets local trade and soda fountains. The move follows prior ice industry consolidations led by Ernest Woodruff, with Rettig planning delivery via horses and wagons to homes and markets as Atlanta remains a major railroad ice center.
