Except for those retail businesses
that are part of a large

kinds of fringe benefits, from
group insurance to Social Security.
If a business is large
enough to hire even one employee,
fringe benefits ? in
one form or another ? are
certain to be a significant cost
factor in the firm's "hidden
payroll."
And there is one "employee
benefit" that is essential to
every business ? an adequate
profit. An adequate profit to
insure job security and generate
the kind of business
growth that creates personal
opportunities.
Think about it for a moment,
and see if you don't
agree that an adequate profit
is the world's most important
employee benefit. Everything
else in a business, large or
small, depends on it. Without
it ? profit ? even industrial
giants soon wither and die.

Textile Industry Is
Ket'ping Up
Herbert Koshctz, business
columist of The New York
Times, comments:
"The textile industry has
belied the oft-repeated criticism
that its methods are
archaic and that it lags in research
and development. In
the last three years, the industry
? according to Department
of Commerce ficures
?has invested more than $1.5
billion in plant and equipment
for textile mills. These
figures do not include the $800
million capital investment of
chemical companies in the expansion
of textile fiber output."

There mav he circumstances

even then, if wc hnt permit it,
