Cotton Industry Must
Take Recognition of
Relationship with
Textiles, Love Says
The future of cotton is tied
strongly to the future of the
American textile industry
and the cotton industry must
take increasing recognition of
that fact, ATMI SecretaryTreasurer
F. S. Love said in
a recent address at the 14th
annual Texas Farm and
Ranch Credit School for Commorniol
itivi viai uaimcid d I ICActb
A & M University. The increasing
dependence of the
cotton industry on the textile
industry is emphasized by
shifts in world cotton production
and consumption, Mr.
Love said. Additionally, he
said, the man-made fiber industry
has had an explosive
growth, standing now as a
$2-billion industry.

'66 Christmfl? Cluh
Enrollment Begins
Notices announcing plans
for the 1966 Christmas Savings
Club were posted November
12 at the Employee
Information Centers. Arrangements
have been made
for all empovees so desiring
to participate in the payroll
deduction program. The plan
will be handled in cooperation
with M. S. Bailey & Son,
Bankers.
Supervisors have enrollment
cards available for all
employees. Upon authorization
from the emplovee. the
Payroll Department will withhold
a designated amount
from each paycheck beginning
on November 21 and
running for 50 weeks.
In the past, the payroll deduction
plan for Christmas
Savings has proven to be a
great convenience for most
employees, as the employee
does not have to concern
himself with making weekly
or monthly deposits at the
bank.
Employees who do not wish
to join the plan at this time
may uo so iaier. in ow employees
will be offered the
opportunity at the time they
be^in work.
Weekly deposits of $1, $2, $3,
$4, $5, and $10 will be made,
and the amount accumulated
over 50 weeks will total $50,
$100, $150, $200, $250, and
$500, respectively.
