Thomasville, Alabama seems as far away from China as you can get. Fewer than 5,000 souls live there, and it sits more than 60 miles from the closest interstate highway. This October, though, its mayor was spotted sitting in a pipe-factory canteen in Dalian, a city in north China, eating lunch with the factory's owners. Sheldon Day was there to drum up investment. Two years ago he convinced another Chinese company, which makes copper tubes, to build its first American factory in the county next door. The plant will create around 300 jobs when it opens next year. Mr Day wants more.
