Industry Diversified
“Nowhere else in America is there such a concentration of diversified operations,” the book says. “In 1905 . . . more than half of the region was a wilderness, uninhabited |S and uninviting. Within 20 miles of Chicago, great tracts were as. wild | as they had been when they were &°
trod by the Indian” : The heavy industries include “Big’ Steel,” consisting of seven plants : ‘of the United States Steel Corp. £ «1ittle Steel,” the Inland Steel Co. |: and four large oil refineries as well | ‘as chemical plants and ‘railroad shops. _ The assessed valuation of Lake County in which the industries of | the Calumet are concentrated is, $395.475,110, according to the guide- | book, which adds that the estimated valuation: is more than one pillion.
“90,000 ‘Workers in Area
“In Calumet industries are 70,000 workers whose annual pay totals approximately $85, 000,000, the guide‘book estimates. The region’s annual production of all articles totals about 600 million dollars. With the exception of Hammond, the Calumet’s cities are relatively new. Gary sprang up almost overnight, the guide says, while East Chicago and Whiting had a rapid development, coinciding largely with the rise of industries. The hook lists several different theories on the origin of the Word, Calumet. A map made in 1817 called the Calumet River the Kinnamic and cartographers of the 19th century were divided on the spelling, some- |: times listing the river as the “Ken- |& nomic, Calamenk, Calmic and Callimink.” Name Given by French
"The name Calumet, the book says, probably was used by the French & to apply to the river and the region. © ee : Another assumption’ is that it w the French distortion of the In-|§ dian name for the Calumet River, |= . which was something like Kenomic, |= an abbreviation of Chippeqa-Kini- |= kinigon.
