Editorial Comment
REAL INDUSTRY LOATH TO MOVE
minneapolis .JournalD


Many American communities have passed through the
booster era. during which they made frenzied attempts
to secure new industries. An attractive bonus was Of
Tered to induce some small factory to move from another
town. Free factory sites. even free buildings were Of
fered. and some held out inducements Of almost total ex-
cmption from taxation.
Experience has shown that most Of the ~itinerant fac
tories failed to last. The towns acquiring them had small
temporary gains. followed BY disheartening losses.
The thing many a city has found out for itself is proved
statistically now in q survey made for the National Elec-
trio Light association by the economic service Of the
Metropolitan life Insurance company. It covered more
than two thousand towns for 1926 and 1927. These places
gained more than ten thousand plants. but more than
80 per cent Of them were new industries and less than
10 per cent were accounted for by relocation" New
branch plants made nearly another ten per cent. and
accounted for Is per cent Of the increases in total en-
ployees.
On the other hand. Of 5sos plants lost in the two years.
only II per cent moved. while g per cent went out Of
business.
From THIS survey It is clear that industries spring Up in
great numbers. that a large percentage Of them die, but
That only q few. comparatively, seek new homes. The
average city gains more BY encouraging the industries it
has and BY making conditions attractive for new ones,
than It can hope to gain by Turing established plants
from some other city. Opportunity for the city. as for the
individual, lies often In its own dooryard.

UNPREPARED IN THE AIR

Despite all tho progress America has made in aviation
in recent years. the nation cannot yet consider itself
properly prepared in the air. In a military sense, accord
ing to Rear Admiral w. A. Moffctt, chief Of aeronautics
in the u. S. navy.
Admiral Mcffett told Culver Military Academy summer
school students the other day that Germany. despite her
defeat IN the World war. leads the entire world in avia-
ton. both in expenditures and progress" He urged an
upbuilding Of Uncle Sans aerial defense. remarkirg that
the navy needs at least four more modern aircraft car
ricrs.
Probably It is a surprise to most Of US to hear that our
military aviation is not yet up to standard. There is one
comfort. however; We are undoubtedly making vast prog
rcss. The quick development Of a huge afr force in time
Of war would be a far easier task now than it was in 1917,
