Extract

It will probably be useful to trace the evolution of the title of this paper. Initially, the assigned purpose of the paper was “to contrast the impact of a recession on rural areas having industrial development with those that have not attracted additional industry.” The program title became “The Effect of a Recession on Employment, Population and Industrial Development in a Rural Economy.” My first review draft of the paper carried the title “Effects of General Economic Conditions on an Industrialized Rural Economy.” One week preceding the meetings, I received a revised draft of the manuscript, title “The Effect of Recession on the Rural-Farm Economy.”
