AS a large employer of men, the Iron
Mountain means considerable to Ark
ansas. At present this company en-
ploys about 5000 men in Arkansas.
Figuring an average of three to a
family, this would mean $4,000 persons
either working for or dependent upon
this company for q living, or an aver
age of one one in every sixty Of the
states population.
For wages, this company pays out
in Arkansas more than half a million
dollars every month. This great army
of Iron Mountin employees in the state
spends at least $135,000 for shoes in
a year, more than $2,500,000 for food
and at least 81 100000 for clothes be-
side stheir purchases of other arti-
cles entering into their living.
In taxes alone the Iron Mountin
pays nearly one million dollars an
naually in Arkansas and another huge
sum for ties, lumber and coal.
It should therefore be comparatively
easy to estimate what an important re-
lation the Iron Mountain bears to the
success of Arkansas.

The value of large companies, in
addition to their service as carriers,
to the communities touched by the.x
is very well illustrated in the case of
the great state of Arkansas.

The primary duty of a railroad is
u9 serve the communities through
winch it passes by taking their pro-
Ducts to maket and bringing back the
n9gs which it is necessary to import
eno to transport passengers and mail
eetween these communities or through
0sem to more distant destinations.
How well the Iron Maintain serves
Arkansas can be largely demonstrat-
- by the fact that in this state, with
~ extreme width and length of 275
miles and 240 miles respectively, this
company has a total mileage within
: fraction Of 2,400 miles or almost
TN times the extreme length of the
state. Its lines literally network the
entire state extending into practically
every section. The Iron Mountain
lines, reaching out in all directions
from Little Rock, as the heart, are the
arteries Of Arkansas trade in very
Important sense. Every day and night
of the year heavily loaded trains,
drawn by pulsing monarchs of the rail
are constantly threading this great
state, as shuttles IN loom, weaving
factory, field, forest and mine into one
vast empire Of prosperity.
But let us consider for just mo-
ment what the Iron Mountain con-
tributes to the business Of Arkansas
in addition to it's share as Carrier"
