Hats Off to Iowa Manufacturers and Industrial Growth
The Iowa Manufacturers Association and Iowa Development Commission form a volunteer committee to promote locating firms in Iowa. The aim is to boost industrial jobs and growth while guarding against restrictive taxation. Industrial employment rose from 86,000 in 1939 to 171,700 by 1958, signaling a strong present and future for the state's industries.
