The Base of Industry — Основа индустрии

Americas heavy industry depends upon three resources: iron ore from the Lake Superior area, coal from western Pennsylvania, and transportation across the Great Lakes District.

Steel making is basic, but there are many other related industries in this area, too; glass, nonferrous metals, chemicals, rubber, and machine-building industries.

Pittsburgh is the first of the great steel cities.

The other great steel-making centres are Chicago, Detroit, Youngtown, Cleveland, Toledo, Erie, Buffalo.

Detroit is the heart of the automobile industry. It began as a wagon-making town.

The cargo tonnage which passes between Lake Superior and Lake Huron almost equals the combined capacity of the Panama and Suez Canals.

Основа индустрии

Большая часть промышленности Америки зависит от трех ресурсов: железной руды из района Верхних Озер, угля с запада Пенсильвании и грузоперевозки вдоль Больших Озер.

Производство стали — это главное, но есть и много других родственных отраслей индустрии: стеклянная, цветных металлов, химическая, резиновая и машиностроительная.

Питсбург — один из больших городов сталелитейной промышленности.

Центрами производства стали являются Чикаго, Детройт, Кливленд, Толедо, Эри и Буффало.

Детройт — это сердце машиностроительной промышленности. А начиналось все с маленького городка, в котором производили фургоны.

Объем грузоперевозок между озерами Верхнее и Гурон, почти равен общему объему перевозок Панамского и Суэцкого каналов.
