Theres a common refrainamong mainstream econo-mists that, when it comes toAmericas long-term growth,it doesnt matter whether thecountry has a strong manufac-turing base. Nor, they say, doeshaving a healthy industrialstructure create greater incomeequality. If we want growthand fairness, the thinking goes,we shouldnt focus on specificindustries. We should pursuebroad policies, such as invest-ment in education and progres-sive income taxation.
Earlier this week, formerCouncil of Economic AdvisersChair Christina Romer arguedthat there was nothing spe-cial about manufacturing thatwould justify public policiesaimed at supporting it.
But manufacturing is spe-cial. Its more innovative andpays better wages than the restof the U.S. economy. Thosefacts arent accidents of his-tory. There are reasons behindthem that are likely to persistfor the foreseeable future. Ifwe want more rapid economicgrowth and a more equal dis-tribution of income, we cant
be indifferent to whether theUnited States has a healthymanufacturing sector.
WHY MANUFACTURING
IS DIFFERENT
Lets start with innovation,which is the force that powers
long-term improvements in ourstandard of living. Here, manu-facturing strongly outperformsthe rest of the U.S. economy.Manufacturers are responsiblefor more than two thirds of allcompany-performed domes-tic research and developmentspending, even though theyonly generate about 11 percentof Americas GDP. More than athird of all U.S. engineers workin manufacturing. And about22 percent of all manufactur-ers introduced a new productor service between 2006 and2008, compared to 8 percent ofnon-manufacturing firms.
Why is manufacturing moreinnovative compared to otherbusinesses? The sector haslong benefited from the relent-less application of technical
knowledge and skill. Everyyear, production workers, en-gineers, and managers findbetter ways to solve the techni-cal problems of production. Asa result, production becomesmore efficient and, from timeto time, the production processgets reorganized.
That recipe for innovationdoesnt work as well in the rest
of the economy. In the servicesector, only a few productionprocesses, such as filling ordersfor fast-food meals or schedul-ing hospital patients, rely heav-ily on solving technical prob-lems, often through the use of

better information technology. But whenit comes to most services, the productisnt as clearly predefined as in manu-facturing, so its hard to make it moreefficiently. What counts as good service
-- be it a clean hotel room or a healthypatient -- is often a matter of opinion, andthe process of production is frequentlyinseparable from the service itself. Takethe restaurant business. Its pretty hard tomake waiters serve meals faster.
Because so much less is known abouthow to innovate in the services sector,an economy that loses its manufacturingbase ends up sacrificing much of its abil-ity to innovate at all. The consequence is
slower growth in living standards.Manufacturing also pays more thanother industries. A forthcoming Brook-ings report by Susan Helper and myselfshows that even after taking into accountthe characteristics of workers and jobsthat influence wages (such as education,occupation, union status, geographic lo-cation, and demographics), manufactur-ing workers earn about 8 percent more perweek than employees in other industries.Lower-wage workers especially benefit,earning about 11 percent more than theirpeers in other businesses, while high-wage workers earn just 4 percent more.
Although manufacturings wage ad-vantage may have shrunk after decadesof offshoring and union decline, thereare reasons why it still exists and willlikely continue. Because manufacturingis more capital-intensive than the rest ofthe economy, downtime is more costlythan in other industries. Manufacturers
pay a premium to attract and retain work-ers who are skilled and motivated to keepthe machines running. Factories are alsotypically larger than other business estab-lishments, so it is more difficult for man-agers to control the production process inmanufacturing. That means productionworkers have to take greater responsibil-ity than in other industries, and manufac-turers pay more to find the employeeswho can handle it.
On average, manufacturers are likely tocontinue to have greater need for skilled,motivated production workers than othercompanies. As long as they do, they willcontinue to pay more than other compa-nies. And as long as that happens, the loss
of manufacturing jobs will depress Amer-ican wages, especially for workers at thelowest rungs of the economic ladder.
MANUFACTURING JOBS ARE
WORTH MAKING
Manufacturing matters for innovationand income distribution, but its not theonly thing that matters. Industry-neutralpolicies as well as industry-specific onesare appropriate and necessary. Moreover,there are some parts of the non-manu-facturing economy, such as computersoftware, that have some of the same ad-vantages (though not the size) of manu-
facturing. Likewise, not all manufacturingfirms or industries are equally innovativeor high-paying. Public policy should besensitive to these differences.
While Americas manufacturing sectorno longer lords over our economy as inthe past, its still a crucial force. It is moreinnovative and pays higher wages thanother industries. Because thats likelyto be the case for the foreseeable future,public policy should support a healthymanufacturing sector.

Specializing inEntrepreneurship,Training andCertifications
With the local economy rebounding,many manufacturers in west central Ohioare switching from survival mode toissues associated with hiring new work-ers and training their current workforces.Manufacturers concerns have also fo-cused on how they will replace experi-enced skilled workers who are approach-ing retirement. The Lima-based WestCentral Ohio Manufacturing Consortium
(WCOMC), representing 20 regionalmanufacturers with over $9 billion in an-nual sales, has been working with manu-facturers in addressing these and othertraining needs.
One of the positions in biggest demandin manufacturing in this region involvescomputer numerical control (CNC).CNC machinery involves programmingand operating computerized automatedmachine tools, instead of manually oper-ating them. In response to manufacturersdemand for CNC operators, the WCOMChas offered 10-week/two-course CNCOperator certificates from Rhodes StateCollege, giving students hands-on train-ing with CNC machines, auto CAD andblueprint reading.
Supervisors are among the high-se-niority employees retiring, or approach-ing retirement. The WCOMC and HuskyLima Refinery have sponsored a monthly
series of supervisor leadership work-shops to address proper management ofpersonnel and situations facing supervi-sors in the workplace. Workshops havecovered topics ranging from communi-cation, managing change, motivation andmorale, conflict and confrontation, man-aging multi-generational workforces andconducting successful meetings. Theseries will continue in 2012-13, with top-ics such as building team trust, holdingpeople accountable, coaching for optimalperformance, conducting and handlingdifficult conversations, delegating andinfluencing and conflict resolution. Thisseries has provided many manufactur-ers affordable, local training for some of
their high-skilled staff.The supervisor leadership series has
resulted in Rhodes State College and theWCOMC creating an associates degreefor supervisors. In addition to addressingskills needed by todays supervisors, thisdegree also gives the student the flex-ibility to emphasize technical trainingin quality, safety or engineering fields.Attendance in the supervisor leadershipseries may apply toward credit in this de-gree.
With many employers, increasingskills in the workplace require incum-bent workers to pursue degrees or certifi-cation, such as the supervisor workshopsand degree. However, there is merit to
awarding credit to an employee from theeducation accumulated from work ex-perience. Staff members from RhodesState College have undergone trainingfrom an accredited program on awardingcollege credit for experience. Awardingcredit for experience reduces the timeand cost of earning a college degree. Aprospective students certifications, workand other experiences are assessed, and
credit is awarded based on applied andcourse knowledge gained from these en-deavors.
These new programs are the resultof the WCOMC communicating and re-sponding to regional manufacturers toaddress their training needs, said con-sortium director Doug Durliat. We arein the process of presenting a workshopseries that addresses continuous improve-ment in the workplace. If interested inmore information on the continuous im-provement series, supervisor leadership,CNC or other training programs, contactthe WCOMC 419-995-8353.

In a New York Times op-ed, Chris-tina Romer, the former chair of PresidentObamas Council of Economic Advisors,arguescontra her former bossthat thereis no compelling justification for policiesaimed at supporting U.S. manufacturing.
She lays out and rejects a few theoreticaljustifications for supporting manufactur-ing, including the idea that there are largepositive externalitieslarge social benefitsrelative to what private companies can cap-turetied to the sector. Her arguments areunconvincing. Most important, there arelarge social benefits associated with inno-vation and manufacturing plays an outsizedrole in creating them. In so doing, manu-facturing makes a disproportionate contri-bution to economic growth.
Romer ignores the strong evidence that
company research and development (R&D)is worth much than the companies capture.For example, Charles Jones and John Wil-liams estimate that R&D spending wouldhave to quadruple to be high enough tomeet the nations needs. Some economistshave estimated that R&Ds rate of return tothe nation as a whole (not just to the compa-nies that pay for it) is as high as 30 percent.There are also positive externalities asso-ciated with less formal innovations such
as improvements in production processes.Like the results of R&D, these innovationscan be copied or adapted by competitors.
As one of us has written for a forthcom-ing Brookings report, all of these inventiveactivities and innovative accomplishmentswould be vastly diminished without themanufacturing sector. Although it makesup only about 11 percent of GDP, manu-facturing accounts for 68 percent of all do-mestic R&D spending by companies in theUnited States. While only about 9 percentof all U.S. jobs are in manufacturing, 35percent of all engineers work in manufac-turing. National Science Foundation datashow that only 8 percent of all non-man-ufacturing companies introduced a newproduct or service between 2006 and 2008,while 22 percent of manufacturing compa-
nies did so. The same percentages apply tothe share of companies that added a newproduction or business process. Finally,corporate tax data from the IRS reveal that60 percent of income from royalties fromintellectual property goes to manufactur-ing firms.
The innovation spillovers that manufac-turers produce flow throughout the U.S.economy, not just to other manufacturers.The gains are especially large at the region-
al scale becausecontrary to Romers mis-interpretation of the literaturecompaniesperform better when they are located nearmany other firms than when they are moregeographically isolated. When a manufac-turing establishment relocates offshore, the
related companies in the region suffer dis-proportionately.Even aside from geographic linkages,
manufacturing firms are tightly linked toinnovation in the U.S. service sector. Forexample, high-technology services suchas Internet services, telecommunications,computer systems design, and scientificresearch depend on R&D in manufactur-ing. When a manufacturer moves produc-tion offshore, the skilled researchers andengineers it used to employ in this countryare no longer available to high technology
service providers. As the regional benefitsof that knowledge creation emerge andgrow in the foreign location, a larger shareof inter-related service activities (includingmanagement, administration, marketing,logistics, legal, and information technol-ogy) also relocate offshore to be closer tothe center of production.
Romer mentions tax breaks, trade re-strictions, and direct government invest-ment in specific industries as examples
of wrongheaded policies aimed to supportmanufacturing. In fact, though, there are awide variety of sensible policies that thefederal government could adopt to counter-act the market failures associated with inno-vationmarket failures that result in large
part from manufacturings outsized con-tribution to innovation. Desirable policiesinclude improving the training of workerswithout four-year degrees, strengtheningR&D tax credits, and expanding assistanceto small and medium-sized manufacturersto help them improve their economic per-formance.
Meanwhile, at the regional and statelevel, there are also many useful interven-tions available to policymakers. Regionalleaders can attempt to leverage their spe-cific strengths in the sector and shore up
their weaknesses by observing variouscapacities with respect to invention andresearch capacity, workforce skills, ac-cess to finance, and infrastructure needs.Improvements along these lines can ben-efit manufacturers and avoid wastefulcorporate giveaways to business. Givenmanufacturings special contribution toregional and national economies, such in-terventions would likely be well worth theinvestment.

The Ohio Department of Development an-nounced the Ohio State Small Business CreditInitiative (SSBCI), a program that will accessfunding of more than $55 million to increaseprivate lending and the amount of credit avail-able to Ohios small businesses.
Through Ohios SSBCI, we are helpingto fill a major challenge faced by Ohio smallbusinesses that seek capital to expand and cre-ate jobs, said Christiane Schmenk, Director ofthe Ohio Department of Development. Ohiossmall businesses are the backbone of our econ-omy and providing them the tools they needto be successful will create a healthier Ohioeconomy.
The State Small Business Credit Initiative(SSBCI) was created by the Small BusinessJobs Act of 2010, which provided $1.5 bil-lion to strengthen state programs that supportlending to small businesses. Under the SSBCI,
states were offered the opportunity to apply forfederal funds for state-run programs that part-ner with private lenders to increase the amountof credit available to small businesses. TheOhio Department of Development applied forand received an allocation totaling $55,138,373from the U.S. Department of Treasury.
The Ohio Department of DevelopmentsBusiness Services Division will administer threefinancing programs utilizing SSBCI funds:
Collateral Enhancement Program (CEP) is a new $33.1 million program that providesbanks with cash collateral deposits to use as
additional collateral for loans made to eligiblesmall businesses. Under the CEP, the Ohio De-partment of Development will open an interestbearing account with a lender and deposit upto 30 percent of the loan amount where thereis a collateral value shortfall as determined by
the lender and the Ohio Department of Devel-opment (up to 50 percent of the loan amountfor minority-owned businesses or businesseslocated in a Historically Underutilized BusinessZone).
Ohio Capital Access Program (OCAP) supports small business lending by establish-ing a loan guarantee reserve pool at a lendinginstitution that participates in the OCAP. Thisprogram has been expanded (increased to $5million) and can provide financing to for-profitand nonprofit businesses that may be experi-encing some difficulty obtaining business loansusing conventional underwriting standards. The
state, the lender, and the borrower each pay asmall contribution fee into the pool. The reservepool is available to the participating lender forrecovery of any losses on any loan they haveenrolled in the OCAP.
Targeted Investment Program (TIP) isa new $15 million venture that supports thegrowth and expansion of targeted small busi-nesses within Ohios manufacturing, produc-tion, and logistics value chains. TIP offersdebt instruments tailored to the specific needsof the company at or below market interestrates.
