I»ec. 9, 1961 Mr*: In view of your editorial, It might interest you why rrianu fuctures are m</vmg south. Here’» what they want: A large und adaptable labor force Sufficient good water A community that will work with them. They prefer non union labor Land, or land and buildings fur niahed. Good highway and railway outlets Good tax structure. Down here the farms are small and often both man and wife work in town Or, with broilers, one can care for them alone, while the other works. Arkansas has an Industrial De velopment Commission. This was fostered by Winthrop Rockfeller. Cities are enabled to get money hi build und attract industry. In the case of Daisy Mlg. Co. the city of Rogers bonded ha one and one fourth million dol lars, sold the bonds and bought land, then constructed two huge buildings. Daisy has 20 years to pay for this outfit. New York Life bought the bonds. I note that Nebraska and sev oral other states are banding to gether to attract industry. Well, union labor is going to have to produce more or take less wages and management will have to get off its gulf cart, do some work and take less profits. In case this doesn’t happen, we won’t have anything to eat. Our gold reserves are down to 15*^ billion. Our imports will soon exceed our exports. My estimate is that 70% of our businessmen are broke. They fig ure their assets in paper, and be fore long that paper won’t buy anything. Enclosed is information put out by Rogers. I’d be glad to furnish my more you wish. Kalpli N.
