Description

The United States Army is constructing a Quartermaster Depot just south of the Fort Worth, Texas city limits. The project will cost a total of two-million-dollars. One of the two huge warehouses is shown under construction. The structure is rapidly taking form as the construction crew hustles to complete the project before the June 1st deadline. Sixteen-feet above the ground, the concrete roof slab for the first of the fireproof buildings is being poured. As soon as the concrete work is finished, the bricklayers will begin erecting the warehouse walls.
