THE CLOTHMAKER
TEXTILES,
County and
States' Leading
Industry
Laurens County's textile industry
provided 53.1 per cent
of the county's industrial payroll
during 1904-65, the S. C.
Labor Department discloses
in its latest annual report.
Hourly workers in Laurens'
11 textile plants were paid
$16,825,978 in wages during
4 V> /\ T nn 1 n/?r
me yisai t'liuun ?j uiiicr ou, lyuu,
the period covered by the
report.
Textile plants in the county
employed 11,921 non - salaried
men and women, 55.7 per cent
of the county's industrial labor
force.
The state agency's report
also shows that textile plans
account for 53.2 per cent
($34,653,354) of all capital investment
and 56.3 per cent
($78,162,514) of the value of
all manufactured goods in
Laurens County.
Textile statistics reported
by the Labor Department
cover the basic spinning,
weaving, knitting and finishing
plants, plus fiber manufacturers.
The industry continued to
dominate the statewide manufacturing
picture too. Accord
ing to the Labor Department
report, textiles furnished 55
per cent of the hourly manufacturing
jobs and 59.3 per
cent of the hourly wages in
South Carolina.
With plants located in 41
of the state's 46 counties, the
South Carolina textile industry
has a capital investment of
nearly $921 million and produces
a variety of goods
worth more than $2.63 billion
annually, more than half the
state's total.
Greenville, with an annual
textile payroll of more than
$71 million, and Spartanburg,
with 17,149 hourly paid textile
employees, are the biggest
textile counties by volume.
Hut Union and T.nnmclor
Counties have the heaviest
per capita concentration of the
industry. In each county textile
manufacturing accounts
for nearly 90 per cent of the
industrial jobs and nearly 92
per cent of the industrial
payroll.
Words of Wisdom
A laugh is worth a hundred
groans in any market.
When you make a mistake and
won't admit it, you've made
two.
Time tells on a man ? especially
a good time!
Oddly enough, the one who
knows everything has the
most to learn.
The hardest thing there is to
give is "in."
Don't be afraid to be different.
Your way may be the better
one.
Somo pooplo excuse fnultni

resourcefulness, product
knowledge, ingenuity and integrity,
coupled with alert
aggressiveness, endless energy,
and motivation to excel

When time permits, he enjoys
a round of golf and participating
in most sports.
Above all he enjoys the even
