Governor Probes Jacksonville Site Choice for Helicopter Plant
Governor Claude Kirk defends Jacksonville as a better helicopter plant site than Charleston Virginia. He will urge a Defense Department inquiry into the decision and cites lower costs and wages in Jacksonville. Kirk accuses political influence, notes Sikorsky’s large military orders, and argues Florida faces a vocational training crunch while preparing a tax sharing plan.
