CEMENT
The Rizal Cement Company, at Binangonan on Laguna de Bay, which produced about 10,000 barrels of cement in 1919, failed. The failure was probably due to the overlooking of some vital factors in the manufacture of this article. A more favorable locality than Binangonan has. been found by a geologist of the Bureau of Science, at Naga, Cebu, and a contract has been let by the National Development Company to the Cebu Portland Cement Company. There are other localities where cement materials are available. Batan Island in many ways is very favorably situated;but, considering market, labor, coal, and transportation, Cebu appears to be somewhat better favored than the former.
