BABSON PARK, Mass. -In fonilclrrlnf this topic, thirt art several
Important facton which mtmt be wrinhtH by both employers and
afeworters. Ona of the first of thrat la location. In addlllon to
the que ttlon of whether It U a good place to llva, a. location la
either favorabla or unfavorable depending upon Iti suitability for tha
Industry In which you ara eitKaged. If tba commodity to ba produced
Is bulky and heavy, acccssabilliy, through provlmlty or ampla trana
porUtion, Is neceitary,
LOCATION AND CAPITAL
A successful steel mill's LOCATION Is determined primarily
by Ita accessibility to tha raw material. Transportation by rail and
weier is Mjthiy essential. Another' factor la de
termining an ideal location for an Industrial plant
la a MARKET for tha finished product Heavy
products are therefore excluded from eome markets
by consideration of "what-the-traffic-wlll-bear." A
carload of silk can ba shipped much farther than a
carload of Heel, since the rate cost per unit would
be much less for silk. This would give It a larger
market. Therefore, accessibility to both the raw
product and the market for tha finished goods Is
very Important In determining an ideal location for
a successful enterprise.
Another factor In plant location la CAPITAL
(money). In many Industries, thousands of dollars must ba Invested
In order to employ one worker. Millions of dollars must ba invested
to construct a steel mill. Were it not for rspltal, wa could not have
ampla railways and airplanes, or tall office buildings, or bridges
to span large rivers. We would still be In the horse-and-buggy stage.
Capital la what makes It possible for 63.000,000 workers to ba employed
at wages hitherto undresmed of. , The United Statea Is tha only
Ballon in which this Utopian condition exists.
IMPORTANCE Or MANAGEMENT
An ample, congenial labor supply is highly essential for a good
Industrial plant location. Manuacturera could not do anything with
out labor. And labor could not be employed by the millions without
a large accumulation of capital. Capital depends on labor and
labor depends on capital: what harms one, harms both. If you are
working In a placa where the above factors ara generally favorable,
the next important factor is MANAGEMENT. A manager's functions
are to organize, deputize, supervise, and vitalize the organization.
In summary, an Industrial plant, to have a good chance of being
successful, mut enjoy these five factors: msterlals, market, money,
men, and management. Sometimes I think that management is tha
most Important of all. Furthermore, if you are an employee, remem
ber that the success of tha management depends upon you and
the other wageworkers.
POSSIBILITY or WORLD WAR II!
I am not advising any worker to change the place where ha Is
now working for fear of World War III. I forecast that such a war
la not comim at once, and may not come for some time until after
you ara retired and have a good home In tha South or in California.
But I do advise young persons who ara Just entering industry to avoid
certain big cities, some of which are sura to ba laid waste in t
event' of atomic attack. This meana that small communities, Kmc
miles distant from big vulnerable Industrial cities, should ba preferred
by those who have not already set their "roots" elsewhere.
Most large corporations are now building auxiliary plants in
audi smaller safe cities and towns. Therefore, when you decide
what industry you are best fitted for, and what company you wish
to work for, ask the employment manager to give you a Job in a
small community. This especially applies to prospective graduates
of high schools and colleges which are now being visited by em
ployment managers seeking good men and women to Join their
organizations.
