STATE CHAMBER
SEEKS FACTORIES

Georgia. cities and towns are alive
as never before in building them
selves up, and many of them are put
ting forth strenuous efforts to induce
manufacturers to locate among them.
The Georgia Chamber Of Commerce
has sent out a letter to practically
every city and town in the state ask
ing specific questions as to just what
kind of new enterprises would best
pay in those communities and what
cooperation and financial support
would be offered as an inducement 70
secure new enterprises.
The answers have been promot and
enthusiastic, and it is believed that
this movement will result in bringing
a number of factory builders from
other sections Of the country to Geor-
gia After compiling the answers re-
celyed. the Georgia Chamber of COM
merce has l. erted notices in l2o
trade papers in the various lines
throughout the United States, telling
Of Just what factories are needed IN
this State and offering to give iui
and free information to anyone wA1
would write to the organization.
1t is interesting to note the variety
OF industries that are wanted by Va
rious localities. When It is known
that thee are already 5000 mani
farturine establishments in Georgia
and that last year the value OF the
products of these factories was S2O2-
S63, 900, it is apparent that Georgia's
progress in manufacturing from now
on will be even greater than that of
Eer agricultural production.
