Outwardly it will have aspects of just ano-| ther minor celebration, but be- hind the fanfare of the day, also, rests the pleasure that comes| with a culmination of a task of magnitude well done, one that in| the years to come will continue | to add, day in and day out, to the constant prosperity of our com- munity. * ¥ * Today the ceremonies inaug- urating the formal opening of a major industry will take pre- cedence over the usual activi- ties of just another day. It is fitting that our business places have made a half-holiday be- cause of the significance of the ceremonies. Patton has cause for genuine celebration. * ¥ * There now are many things to contemplate of the past that as- sisted in bringing the Phillips- Jones plant to our town. Only a year ago a movement was start- ed to foster some move to bring something to Patton in the way of industrial activity. Likely it had its initial inception in the de- sires of the men who returned to their home surroundings after a return from service in the armed forces. They sought for employ- remain at home, While the fac- tory about to open won't employ so many of them, it will add to the community's resources im- measurably in absorbing the fe- male unemployment situation, and, indirectly be of benefit to all residents of this area. * ¥ ¥ Last year at about this time the Patton Municipal Author- ity was formed by authority of the Patton Borough Council, by virtue of an Act of Legis- lature of the session of 1945. This movement was one of the first to be sponsored in the commonwealth, and many fea- tures of the act had to be ex- perienced by the group without benefit of the precedence of like groups to pattern after. It wasn’t an easy job. The Au- thority had many, many prob- lems—and they met with them wisely and well. * * * The Authority comprises State Senator John J. Haluska, presi- dent; Frank Schwab, vice presi- dent; George A. Lehman, secre- tary; Francis X. Young, treasur- er, and Dr. B. J. Overberger. In the inauguration of the Authori- ty, a means was established for a cooperative movement of local citizens to work together toward Their home-made flavor treat, serve cake. Take Over WISW (650).

The possibility of securing the Phillips-Jones factory had come to certain men of our community even before the organization work could be accomplished, and it was rushed toward functioning quickly be- cause of that—even though offer- ing of stabilized employment was to come principally to women, rather than to men. The rest of the story now is history. Patton secured the factory. It is here. * % 2 There are so many things to be said that have already been told in these columns—but to- day probably the best part of the stories of the past has been the fine cooperation of the officials of the Phillips- Jones officials with our Auth- ority. Today every citizen of the area owes them a debt of gratitude for that cooperation. Undoubtedly, the corporation had many opportunities of lo- cating elsewhere. Undoubtedly there were several places that afforded just as good, or bet- ter, advantages than we had to offer. That Patton was selected has displayed that this sound business corporation has faith in us. We must not let them down in the years ahead. * Another matter that has been reviewed throughout the past year, time and again, and which still bears repeating is the manner in which the citizens of of the community, our clubs and organizations responded to the plea for the financing of the fac- tory, not because the corporation had need of the funds, but be- cause they well realize that by local investment in the begin- ning, all interest in the wventure will have a deeper meaning—re- sultant in a better-knit under- standing. That now is something for all of us to look back upon |with pride. When honor today, its meaning covers all who helped—and they are legion. Patton has secured a factory conducted by a firm who en- joys a nation-wide reputation, whose products are known far “and wide in the annals of the men’s-wear trade. There's no “fly-by-night” methods employ- ed by the Phillips-Jones Cor- poration. The many thousands of dollars invested here by them shows their confidence in our future—and in the in- | tegrity of our citizens. All of the money that our enterpris- ing community boosters have invested will be taken over by our new industrial concern and the investment eventually all will be theirs. Patton celebrates. today. We've | every reason to celebrate. In the | hearts of every home-loving resi- | dent there now glows a feeling of | satisfaction—a sense of real ac- | complishment. In the hearts, too, |of our distinguished visitors of | this day there must be a feeling of pride. Knowingly they are {with us today with a realization | that they are directly responsible | for something that will be of gi- | gantic help to a community—and {to we, who live here, is the re- | sponsibility of seeing to it that | the trust placed in all of us has | not been misplaced. { To the ex-serviceman who still" finds himself without em- ployment that will permit him to reside at home, there should be no let-up on the part of our citizens to assure him that per- rogative. Every facility at the command of the Authority will and should be utilized to bring to us something for stabilized home employment for our men, and these men, themselves, have never abandoned the idea of that project. With the nat- ural resources available, and our best selling point, this new factory employing our women can well prove to be another incentive for some other indus- try to eye Patton with favor— an industry that seeks willing, home-loving man-power to pro- duce its product. * * * Patton celebrates today, but it is not finished with the cause for complete satisfaction of our re- quirements. This greatest day in the history of Patton can still be followed by another great day— and after what has happened in the past year, the people of our community surely can feel they have the qualifications to keep up the movement that will bring something, too, for our young men toward employment secur- ity.
