SECURE FACTORY
ON RATE REDUCTION


Clinton, March 5.-The first direct
benefit to Clinton Of securing freight
rates on a parity with st. Louis, ~
announced month or two ago, was
made known today when the industrial
committee of the Commercial club re-
leased the news of the securing OF
new factory, the first in over year.
The new concern is an agricultural
implement manufacturing house. It
has already successfully operated in
wisconsin, but found that freight rates
from that point cut materially into the
profits. Clinton offered location In
the heart of the district to be served
with lower rates on both raw materials
and finished product. Manufacture OF
the implements, silage cutters and po-
tato tools will start by April 1.
The factory will be started modestly
with thirty men employed and will in
crease as conditions warrant 1t. Three
other details for new industrial con
Germs are being negotiated at the pres
ent time, all of which have developed
since the decision OF the interstate
commerce commission gave the Iowa
river cities an opportunity to compete
with st. Louis in the matter Of freight
rates. The three factories In prospect.
if secured. will add seventy-fve to 100
more families to Clinton6 population.
