PUTNAM'S EFFORT
fEdiforiaf from The Hartford Times
 of Monday, FebriayB isth, fs24j

of Monday, FebriaYB fsth, Isx4j The state will view with interest the effort which Putnam business men
 are making to prevent the industries
 of their community from being swept of the map. The organization Of a corporation for the purpose Of esfao. fishing an industry is rather novel procedure. Usually cities and towns content themselves with the appoint
 ment of 4 committee to solicit the lOca- ton in their community Of some ai- ready established industry.
 The Putnam action results from
 in. recent auction sale of the physi-
 cal assets of an important textile plant. Machinery. supplies and every
 thing but the four walls of the build
 ing went under the hammer, and an
 industry that had given employment
 tn hundreds of residents evaporated from view Another textile plant IS in the hands of a receiver and Putnam
 is fearful Of a similar development
 there.
 Putnam Is not the only textile cen
 ter which Is concerned as to the fate
 of is industries. Cotton manufae-
 turers are casting more than merely
 sheep's eyes at the south. where labor is cheap and child labor laws are liberal" Southern communities are so anxious to secure industries that they are ready Co make important concessions as to taxation and other wise Many of the big northern com uanies have established southern branches and have announced that no further expenditures will be made to expand northern plants. Expansion is to be in the south.
 Of course, this situation does not apply to the woolen manufacturers The south does not offer the same in- centive to them, as the south IS not section. Moreover. a large part of the wool used in this country Is imported, so the tendency to seek the section where raw material is produced is not SO great
 The departure of even moderate sized industry from town like Put nam means a vast deal. The loss of several may easily be ealamitOus. These citizens who have banded together to take thought for the morrow are indeed performing a public service. IL will be interesting to see what they can do for the thriv- ing community Of which they are so proud. If their plans work out as they hope they will set an example for oth- or towns. Particularly will they give an example to those who feel that nothing can be done when things start tn slide except to let them slide. 1T heaven helps those that help them selves. Putnam deserves well.
