Des Moines reports Iowa Farm Bureau backs more industry while stressing agriculture and labor mobility. Frank Magid Associates warned Iowa’s strong farm identity may hinder industrial growth, urging sales of Iowa’s assets to attract firms. Iowa State University President James Hilton urged selling Iowa’s strengths, including educated people and food production, to lure industry. Republican Senate leader Rigler and Dem Rep Eveland favored higher funding for the Iowa Development Commission to expand state industrial efforts. House Speaker Naden called for using local industry officials to recruit out of state firms.
