Omaha Manufacturing Doubles in Four Years
Omaha publicized a survey by the Omaha Chamber of Commerce showing 1918 manufacturing output at 427,271.16 dollars, up 22 percent from 1917 and double 1916. The gain comes mainly from packing house products rising to 57,000,000, with total increases offsetting declines elsewhere to yield a net rise of about 3,000,000. The report lists major 1918 outputs and notes Omaha’s packing sector outstripped many cities, highlighting diverse local industries and future prospects for mills, factories, and related facilities.
