MORE INDUSTRIES
URGED FOR CITY
Trade Board Committee Sees
Need of Factories for Fu-
ture Growth.

More energetic encoura cement OF
diversified light industries in Wash
ington, bearing always in mind that
the National Capital is not to be pri-
marily an industrial city. is adVo-
Gated in a report just approved by
the industrial interests committee of
the Board of Trade.
The committee conclusion, it re-
ports, is that both the need and the
opportunity for more manufacturing
exist here.
The need is stated as follows
"Washington must provide work for
the young men, not only of the pres.
ent, but of future generations, in or
der to prevent the accumulation OF
an idle population. The Federal Gov
ernment cannot possibly support the
ma jority of the future population"
Opportunities Scarce Here.
The Washington boy who is indus
trially inclined has scant opportunity
here now. the report points out, but
must find his life work in some other
community.
Opportunity consists, the committee
finds, in excellent transportation facil-
tiles, both by rail and water: ample
space for small factories, particularly
in the Southeast section; plenty of
skilled and unskilled workers former
ly employed in the navy yard and the
Washington Steel and Ordnance Co..
ideal small homes with pleasant sur
roundings ample, loW-cost electric cur
rent.
The report points out. as a specific
case, that one large nationally known
concern has just purchased $4,000
square feet in Washington to erect
warehouses, deserting a location in a
big industrial city because of the bet
ter transportation facilities here.
Dirt Avoided by Electricity.
The electrifcation of small indus
tries. the report says. has removed the
predominant objection to them in the
National Capital-dirt. Factories can
now be made attractive additions to
a city.
The program advocated by the com
mittee has two objects:
First, to foster industries already
located here. Second. to seek new in
dustries.
The first objective. it was SAID can
be helped along by more industrial
loyalty among Washingtonians who
should purchase homemade goods
wherever possible and give local com
panies an opportunity to bid on local
work.
Cooperation Urged.
The committee recommends that
groups be esta ablished within the Board
of Trade representing each branch of
industry now here. to devise ways of
helping business.
For the second part Of the program
it urges that a committee of five be
appointed to collect data essential for
those who may be planning to estab-
lish factories here, to lend them all
reasonable encouragement. and 40
keep a lookout for industries seeking
a home.
The industrial interests committee
already has divided itself in groups
representing present industries.
Among the larger manufacturing es-
Establishments enumerated in the com.
mittee's survew are brick and clay
products, -four milling. ice and ice
cream manufacturing. iron and steel
specialties, woodworking, paints and
oils, slaughtering and meat packing
printing and publishing and stone and
marble works.
