Labor


Because of Hammond's location in the Calumet Region, there is a large supply of both skilled and unskilled labor. There is a good market for fe- male workers, because of the large number of male workers employed in the steel mills and heavy metal in- dustries where female labor is not em- ployed.


With the exception of the building and printing trades, practically all in- dustries operate under the American plan, and Hammond is well known as an open-shop city. A few industries, such as oil refining, clothing, etc., em- ploy union workers.


There have been no industrial dis- turbances over a number of years, and the general attitude of the city as a whole does not encourage labor troubles.


Housing and Living Costs


Hammond is the residential city for a number of the surrounding indus- trial cities that are unable to provide suitable housing of the better type and which have no expansion possi- bilities.


At the present time there is a short- age of homes, as is true in a major- ity of cities throughout the country.


10


INTRODUCTION


Good homes can be rented, when available, at $25 per month and up, this depending entirely upon location and type of home desired.


Because of Hammond being in the Chicago area, prevailing living costs are about the same as in that city. Rentals, taxes and utility costs are cheaper.


Hammond is located adjacent to a superior garden and trucking area, immediately contiguous to the Michi- gan-Indiana fruit belt, and also is close to the large meat-packing oper- ations of the country, making these things available, with wide choice, and at reasonable prices.


Commercial Organizations


There are four commercial organi- zations giving direct service to the in- dustrial and commercial interests of the city.


The Hammond Chamber of Com- merce, the largest, composed of the representative professional and busi- ness concerns, is constantly promot- ing the general welfare of the city from a business standpoint and has a constructive program of activities.


The Hammond Safety Council, a di- vision of the Chamber of Commerce, has been successful in maintaining low insurance rates through its work in fire-prevention, public safety, etc. This division has received several awards in the Inter-Chamber Fire Waste Contests conducted by the U. S. Chamber of Commerce.


The Chamber of Commerce, with other organizations, is constantly ac- tive in a study of proposed budgets of the taxing units and has been a strong influence in maintaining a low tax rate. It has also given much atten- tion to proposed legislation and has been successful in protecting the in- terests of the manufacturers in many legislative matters of a vital nature. The program of the Chamber of Com- merce is a general one and always in the interest of business as a whole.


The Manufacturers' Association is composed only of manufacturers. This organization deals entirely with matters affecting the interests of its membership.


The Hammond Merchants' Associa- tion, now a division of the Chamber of Commerce, deals in subjects af- fecting the retail trade only. It de- votes most of its efforts toward trade promotion, trade practices, etc.


The Hammond Credit Exchange is composed of a large number of re- tailers. This organization is solely for the purpose of giving confidential credit information.


Other organizations active in mat- ters in their particular fields of busi- ness activity are the Hammond Real


Estate Board, the Lake County Under- writers' Association, the Calumet Re- gion Auto Parts Association, etc.


Civic Organizations, Etc.


Most of the civic, and practically all of the fraternal, organizations are represented in Hammond.


Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions and Opti- mists represent the civic luncheon clubs. Also there are the active Women's Club, American Legion Aux- iliary, Parent-Teachers' Association and Business and Professional Wom- en's Club.


All character-building and welfare work clears through the United Wel- fare Association, which conducts an annual drive for a fixed sum to pro- vide for these activities each year, thus relieving business organizations of solicitations more than once a year for these purposes.


Organizations which derive their support from this Association are:


American Red Cross Bethany Children's Home Boy Scouts Brooks House


Calumet Goodwill Industries Carmelite Home for Boys Catholic Associated Charities General Relief Agency


Girl Scouts Hammond Fresh Air Camp Salvation Army


Young Women's Christian Associa- tion


Educational, Religious and Cultural Features


SCHOOLS - The Hammond school system consists of sixteen grade schools, three high schools, one Cath- olic high school and ten parochial schools, all of which are staffed with highly competent teachers and in- structors.


The Technical Vocational School is an important source of potential em- ployee-leadership and offers a train- ing course designed to fit young men to take their place in the industrial community.


There are two highly-rated private- ly-owned commercial schools, assur- ing an adequate supply of stenogra- phic and secretarial help.


For those desiring higher educa- tion, extension courses are provided from the University of Indiana, and engineering courses are given from Purdue University, oftentimes special- izing in such subjects as the heat- treatment of metals, electric welding, gas welding, and kindred subjects of particular interest to manufacturers.


Many Hammond residents avail themselves of the opportunity to take night courses at the University of Chicago and Northwestern University.

General Review


This locality was first called West Hammond, later incorporated as the


Village of West Hammond, still later incorporated as the City of West Hammond, and in 1925 the name was changed to Calumet City. It is in Cook County, 221/2 miles from the center of Chicago. It adjoins Chi- cago on the north, and Hammond on the east. Residents of Calumet City are 20 minutes' ride from 130 differ- ent industries of the Calumet Dis- trict. The city is free of industrial gases and therefore very desirable for residential purposes.


Joining Hammond and Chicago, Calumet City is served with the best of facilities. Theatres, banks, hos- pitals and churches of Hammond are closer to the whole population of Cal- umet City than to the people of Ham- mond. The north and west sides of the city have many desirable sites for industrial expansion and develop- ment. City improvements are avail- able in enough vacant property to double the population with new homes without additional facilities. For years Calumet City has drawn home-owners due to low taxes, fine water, good streets and tolerant mu- nicipal supervision of business.


Calumet City is served by three lo- cal bus companies, and is on the route of four transcontinental air lines, with an airport just outside the city limits.


Being a "City of Homes," Calumet City has stood out as a desirable lo- cation for residential purposes. Many business men who have their offices and industries across the line in Ham- mond and Chicago, reside in Calumet City. Most of the population resides within walking distance of the busi- ness center of Hammond. The city's liberal policies make it a desirable lo- cation for factories as well as homes. Property has a ready market in Calu- met City.
