Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1952-05-27
BY Hal Boyle


American communities, on losing
their chief industry, dwindle until
they become little more than
ghost towns.
Auburn is an example of a town
that faced this problem and fought
back.
AS a result of inspired action by
its citizenry, this central New
York farm trading and manufac-
turing center of SO, 800 population
today faces more prosperous fut-
ure than ever.
In more than $50 years Auburn
had grown from a pioneer village
to a well-balanced, pleasant COM
munity with some 26 varied in
dustries. 1t also is the site of a
state prison, where in the 1820's
the first cell blocks were built
that later become the pattern of
American prison architecture.
Disaster threatened the town
when its leading industry, the In
ternational Harvester Company,
decided to pull out. That meant
the loss of 1,500 jobs and a $5.-
100000 (M) annual blow.
The firm gave lS-months' notice
of its intentions. Every civic at
tempt to save it proved futile. In
1850 international Harvester shut
down its plant here, and as a
GESTURE of good will sold its build
ings for ST to group of citizens
who organized an industrial de-
velopment committee.
Local leaders raised $4,000 to
finance the committees effort to
lure new industries. At first some
businessmen held back, saying,
why should we help get new
firms here that will compete with
us for the labor supply?' But they
soon decided they didn't want to
be part of a dying community.
They pitched in, too.
There wasn't anybody to sell
our community except ourselves"
recalled Frank S. Smith, utilities
executive who headed the COM
mittee.
I'VE couldn't afford just to sit
back and wait for the right guy
to come along.
"And one of our handicaps was
that we were known as that place
where the prison is.
Smith will never forget his first
inspection tour of the vacated 81
plant facilities, which had become
run down.
Il know of nothing more for
lorn than an abandoned plant"
he said. "In the damp and cold of
100000 square feet of rambling
buildings, in the half dark of the
silent old structures, sooted with
the smoke of the forge and foun-
dry, worn with the transport of
goods across the floors, crumbling
here and there with the ravages of
time and use, we plodded our way.
II wondered whether we had
made an ill-advised bargain at one
dollar. / wondered whether the
frost-heaved floors, the leaking
pipes, the dripping roof, the wind
blasted corners and crannies could
be given again to industry in re-
turn for jobs and a payroll"
But the committee swung into
action. Sparkplugged by Smith and
Karl A. Adams, head of the Cham
ber of Commerce here, it contacted
scores of outside manufactures,
hundreds of industrial realty
dealers.
Resolutely the committee avoid
ed the temptation of selling space
to fly-by-night small concerns
that paid small wages; stubbornly
But Thursday night majority
in the house seemed to side more
with Taft than Eisenhower be-
cause the house voted a cut in for
eipn aid closer to Taff'S figure

But Thursday night a majority
in the house seemed to side more
with Taft than Eisenhower be-
cause the house voted cut in for
eign aid closer to Taff's figure
than to Eisenhower's All this for
eign stuff got the little man twist
ed in the head but not so much as
things at home.
After two weeks of talk the
senate passed the immigration bill
which President Truman might
veto, thus knocking two weeks
work into a cooked hat, and the
President himself was in the midst
of stuff the little man got dizzy
trying to follow
The steel case, the cleanup of
government corruption whic h
never seems to get started /. the
little man got out pencil and be-
gan to write down everything that
has him puzzled. He used up two
note books and was starting on
third as this was being written.
