A Career In Textiles Opportunities for careers in the Textile Industry are greater than ever before, according to speakers at a recent seminar for college students. It was brought out that Textiles accounts forthe highest dollar value of any industry in the state, and wages paid to production employees accounts for the highest amount paid by any manufacturing industry. Capital expenditures by Textiles also tops all other industries. Textiles was described as an industr y that offers more stability and opportunity than do many of the so-called "glamor" industries. This will also prove of interest to high school graduates who for one reason or another may not attend college.
