DESCRIPTION |
ILASCO, MO - Pictured here is another
example of the worker housing offered for rent by the Atlas Portland
Cement Company. Located in the LeBaume Valley, this three room
cottage rented for $11.00 a month. This rent was too high for the
more unskilled laborers and was probably rented by members of management
or skilled laborers higher on the pay scale. |
