ft 1 Then came the great depression,
■ ’ The communal plan had left the
mj society without funds or goods to
lL weather the storm. In 1131 the
E, colony was half a million dollars in
y the red. This crisis led to the de-
u ' cision to separate the society's
| spiritual and temporal affairs.
I • Outside Manager Named
In May, 1932, a two million dollar
corporation was formed. It was
given title to all the society's assets
including 26,000 acres of land, a
woolen mill, a furniture factory and
meat and cheese plant*. Each
member was given one non-trans-
ferable share of common voting
stock plus varying shares of dis-
tributive stock.
An outside business manager was
appointed. Pay checks, time clocks
and production incentive plans
were intrOOcedept
Under capitalism the business
enterprises of the German colonists
which some members held when ’
the society broke with its Commu-
nist tradition melted away.- ----,

AMANA, la.. IR—A 20-year ven-
ture into capitalism has restored
the financial health of the Amana
6 Society after communism brought
it to the brink of ruin.
On schedule in the old meeting
. house here today was s session of
the 761 voting stockholders of the
98-year-old society.
It wss a foregone conclusion they
would vote a 20-year renewal of
the corporate life the hard-pressed
group set up on a trial basis in
1832.
। Villages Operated 71 Years
I The switch to capitalism marked
the end of America's most ambi-
tious experiment in pure commu-
nism . Beginning in 1854; the seven
villages of the Amanai operated
as a religious communal for nearly
78 years.
Inspired by spiritual zeal, the
society flourished in the early
A years. But a* onengeneration suc.
«h ceeded another, murmurings of
2. discontent grew louder. Productiv- '
K ity declined steadily.

— Factory Gets Tee Big
A refrigerator factory, started in
1936, grew swiftly. Expansion con-
tinued to a point where the colo-
nists feared it was getting too big
for them to manage. They sold it to
outsiders for more than a million
dollars on Jan. 1. 1950.
Today the society has total assets
of nearly six million dollars — A
gain of four million since the cap-
italistic form was adopted. The way
of life of the colonists—some 2,000 j
of them now—has changed greatly
from the simple, spartan days of
the post.
