Chamberlain Machine Works Rebuilds After Fire
In May 1921 Chamberlain Machine Works suffered a devastating fire destroying the bio factory at Fourth and Esther streets. Rebuilt in a 40 by 40 foot unit on a reduced base, the firm is expanding to meet rising demand for clothes wringers and gun shell components from washing machine makers. Floyd Chamberlain notes production up 1.5 times since January, and adds a 40 by 40 foot concrete addition will create a 30 by 120 foot complex, enabling a night crew to handle a large standing order as a new assembling room rises nearby.
