Architects to Receive Finest Brochure

A brochure comprising one of the finest series of photographic studies in architecture ever produced is soon to be issued by the Monolith Portland Cement Company of Los Angeles.

Securing of the photographs and data has been accomplished by Richard Requa, u'ell known San Diego architect, member of the firm of Requa & Jackson, who has recently returned from a three months' trip abroad. Mr. Requa's mission was to secure photographic studies of buildings and architectural details which could be compiled for distribu. tion to architects. He visited a number of places in Spain, as well as Morocco, Tunis, Algiers, France and England, and returned r,r'ith several hundred negatives and a few thousand feet of motion picture film.

The collection includes an unusually fine group of homes, public buildings, interiors, grill work, doors and other architectural designs. It is hoped that the new volume will be ready for distribution January 1, l9D. A similar brochure was prepared by Mr. Requa and distributed by the Monolith Company two years ago.

Following the policy advocated by Theodore Roosevelt, that "every person should contribute something to the upbuilding of the business or profession from which he makes his living," the Monolith company has taken this means to be of service.
