Bargain Chamber Sparks Emporia Plant Deal
Editorial notes four transportation firms chose Emporia for a 32,000 square foot plant with 80 plus jobs after a Chamber of Commerce and city team lured them with a strong package of land, location, and services. It contrasts a Southeast Kansas town where the Chamber declined as business support waned and a thin financial base urged broader membership. The editor urges active community leadership and promotes Chamber dues as a strong bargain for business prosperity.

About 50 percent of this year's emigrants with Israeli visas are dropout cases, prompting proposals to cut aid to those who do not settle in Israel.
