2 The Clothmaker PUBLISHED MONTHLY BY CLINTON MILLS EDITED BY MACK PARSONS. EXT. B4 WEST OPTIMISTIC P?A1Frnv/\n tirr^nm UWTbnilUn VVLOl 3LLS FUTURE FOR TEXTILES?Governor John C. West said recently that "I have confidence that our industry (textiles) ?as it has in the past?will not only survive but will emerge even stronger and more determined in the future." The Governor also told the Southern Textile Association that technological superiority may be the key to a bright future for the state's textile industry despite growing competition with imports. He also said that despite recent setbacks that included sizeable job losses and declines in state revenue, the outlook for the industry is far from bleak. The Governor was critical of the Federal government for not taking action to correct the imports problem. He added that it has been a decade since Washington last made a significant gesture toward assisting the industry. "Your industry has already shown the determination to survive and surmount the present difficulties," Governor West said. "We share with you that determination and we pledge again to you our total support and assistance in any way possible," he said.
