Debt - Free Ind. t Has Highest Rate of New Industry \ ——— Publication of anew 28-page booklet designed to strengthen the effort to lure additional industry to Indiana is announced by Lt. Gov. Harold W- Handley, director of the Indiana Department of Commerce and Public Relations. Entitled “Why kJePt-Free Indiana Is Attracting More Industry than Any Other State Per Capita” the booklet is designed to give 1 industrial executives factual reasons why they should consider Indiana seriously before deciding upon location sites for new industries or branch plants of already- established industries. Indiana is growing 59% faster than the nation as a Whole; Indiana leads this part of the nation in value of new-plant construction; it leads 46 states in the high percentage of employees in durable goods industries; that it is first in the nation in production volume of gasoline pumps, refrigerators, musical instruments, building limestone and many kinds of steel; that it is third in steel, motor vehicles and parts, and fifth in rubber; that Indiana is j the home of the world’s largest steel plant, largest oil refinery and largest cement ! plant, and that Indiana industry ! is so diversified that most industries entering the state can expect to meet most of their demand for component parts right here at home. Reasons cited for Indiana's industrial superiority among the states include our— Constitutional protection from bonded state indebtedness; the' state’s refusal in the past to impose net income, use, retail, sales, corporate or manufacturer’s taxes; the third lowest unemployment tax in the nation; low cost of state and local government in Indiana; good labor; more - than - adequate, low - cost power; abundance of raw materials; closeness to the exact center of the total national market; more—than-adequate transportation facilities, and fine educational, recreational and general living conditions. Listed on the inside back cover of the booklet are 111 of the nation’s largest and best known industries having 209 plants in Indiana—under a caption which notes that “these are only 2% of the industries now enjoying debtfree Indiana.” LANCASTER BOYS HERE Abner and David Schmucker, Neil and Ben Stoltzfus and Jacob Lanz, are visiting Nappanee from Gordonvillle, Lancaster co., Pa.

Mike managed to creep up and as they passed the finish line Mike McClure's racer was a few inches ahead of Ganshorn.
