Headline UNKRA Builds Cement Plant in South Korea

Caption Description A cement plant that will meet the requirements or an expanding economy is being erected by the UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) at Mungyong, South Korea, at a cost of $8,500,000. Scheduled for completion in 1957, it will have a capacity of 200,000 tons a year. Construction work, which began in September 1955, includes: two massive kilns, a building to house an overhead traveling crane, laboratory, buildings, offices, workshops, storage facilities, railway sidings, an access road, home for employees, and a sewage system. One of the most comprehensive industrial units in the Republic of Korea, the plant will have its own limestone quarries, its own electrical power plant, its own water supply and its own housing development. The traditional thatched cottages of the villages crouch under the very walls of the large modern cement plant at Mungyong. Though in time the main employment will be at the plant, at present, as for generations before, the people of the valley live off the rice fields.
