PRODUCTION in which he said:
During World War II you
saw l saw this Cleveland -
Northeast Ohio area of ours at
tain new economic stature. We
saw the number of Wage-earn-
ers here more than double. We
saw annual payrolls and pro-
duction more than triple.
But as we began our post
war planning it was apparent
that reconversion alone would
not provide enough postwar jobs
for Northeast Ohio's expanded
population, plus our many thou
sands of returning war veter-
ans. Something extra had to be
done.
In 1914, we at the Illuminat-
ing Company intensified our
Best Location in the Nation
campaign, designed to bring
new industry into the area. The
idea mushroomed into a COM
munity wide effort, in which
many businesses, agencies, and
organizations have played a n
important part.
THE results are impressive.
Since V J Day, more than
200,0 900 new job opportunities
have been created for the peop-
lie of Northeast Ohio. All of us
have shared in the economic
and cultural benefits of a high
er and more secure standard
of living.

eral manager Of the Cincinnati
Reds. told q capacity audience
last night at the Home Plate
Clubs fourth annual dinner.
'Television is . tremendous
problem" Paul said, "but teie-
vision and radio can help Us.
Our job is not to cry about 1t.
but to find out what's good about
TV and get that good out Of it.
Baseball people must provide
space for the autos and provide
as much comfort as we can for
older people. who are our great
est potential source of revenue. "
Always q Problem.
The Cincinnati diamond exec
utive said that a recent check of
the records showed that minor
league baseball Is years ago was
beset with as many problems as
it is today. but that further
check showed that they always
staged comeback.
"The minors had a 1913 per
cent increase in attendance last
year." he noted, "but the minors
always will have trouble because
they operate on such limited
budget"
Dwelling on the game itself
only briefly, Paul predicted that
every record in the book will
be broken" sooner or later, and
hinted that the Reds slugging
first baseman, Ted Kluszewski,
who hit 40 home runs last year
to lead the National League.
might be the first to top the late
Babe Ruth's mark of so.
Says Players Improve.
Paul also paid tribute to mod
ern day baseball players. declar-
ing that he would take them
over most of the old-time stars.
He credited modern instruction
methods and the coaching of
qualified men with the improved
modern brand.
Five such instructors, who gave
