CHAPTER XX THE DISTRIBUTION OF INDUSTRIES i. We now come to discuss an extremely interesting aspect of the industrial system, namely, the distribution of industries. We must try to find out how it is, for instance, that there is no shipbuilding on the Thames ; that pottery is made in Staffordshire, while Kaolin, or china clay, on which the industry depends, is found in Cornwall ; why an aluminium company puts down its extractive plant in the hills of Scotland or Wales, and not near the great in...dustrial towns that use aluminium ; and why jams and confectionery, for instance, are made in and round London. ii. We must not expect to be able to state laws about the distribution of industries. We shall presently see that industries grow up and flourish wherever conditions are favourable. Let us begin by examining the necessary con- ditions for the growth of an industry. First of all, there is the need of raw material. If the raw material is enormously heavy, it is unlikely that it will be taken very far from the mine to be worked up, for carriage is costly and waste- ful.
