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.
