* $5 Million Plant to Provide 3500 Jobs

TERRE HAUTE, June 16 Terre Haute has its fingers in its ears, waiting for its biggest boom of the year. Little white houses are sprout. ing like giant clover heads in the Another story, Page 8 pastures which roll out from the city's edge. And the Chamber of Commerce is wearing a wide collective smile «not the usual glad-hand grin— but a real one, with reason. And here's a reason: Allis - Chalmers is building a! $5-million permanent plant here. This means steady employment for this city's 3500 “available” workers; it means a greater bankroll for Terre Haute shoppers; it means more business, more hous-| ing—more everything. | Jobs for 3500 The new plant will manufacture the compressor assembly for Wright J-65 “Saphire” Turbo Jet| fighter plane engines under a aub-| ]

Construction will include the fac-| tory building, 500 by 800 feet; an! office building 50 by 300 feet and a large power plant. The plant will be built on a 215 acre tract north of Tarre Haute, The Austin Co. of Chi-| cago has been awarded the contract for the project. An office has already been opened by Allis-Chalmers in Terre| Haute and they have leased the! former city streetcar barn as a “pilot plant” to train workers Contruction on the main plant builldings will oegin as soon as steel and other materials can be gathered. But the effect this $5-mill'on project has had on this city is magical. “We're so happy, we can hardly believe it.” Mrs. Pear!
