Clark estimates losses of Berry marble holdings
Knoxville December 3. TVA development of Norris Dam caused damages of at least 2 228 000 to marble holdings of Senator George L Berry and associates. Clark, VP of Tennessee Marble Co, gave a lump sum loss figure at a federal commission hearing to value mineral and marble leases. He valued Berry property at 2 225 000 to 2 590 000 before Norris Lake waters. The marble above water line had no practical value. The existence of other marble deposits would not affect this valuation. The question of how the figure was arrived at drew a hard reply from the witness.
