The piece argues that America's small towns are growing faster than the nation, driven by migration and birth rates. It notes a rise in retail outlets per community from 27.7 in 1910 to 52.5 in 1936, and cites factory decentralization and job migration as factors. It mentions a county meeting to equalize taxes and apportion them among townships.
