Section 7. That every person, firm, company or corporation, re quired by this Ordinance to ob tain a license to engage in any business, trade, profession or oc cupation for which a license is re constructive in all his relations, not only as a manufacturer but as a leader of men. The late Mr. Regnery has been succeeded by his able, resource ful and constructive son, Mr. Walter Regnery. Recently Mr. Walter Regnery was quoted In The Joanna Way, the very attractive and readable monthly magacine of The Joanna £otton Mills Co., of Joanna, S. C. I wish to quote Mr. Regnery in pert. “Nineteen fifty-four was a most difficult year in textiles and Joanna's experience was no ex ception. The volume of goods which moved into markets was fair as compared with other yams, but prices were reduced to an extremely low point Any business must have profits to live just as we must have wages to meet our every-day needs. Many textile firms found it necessary quired, shall at the time of apply- c Ju.Znrli ini for such license make a state- f 0 ^ of business, others had to dig into reserves earned in the past, to keep going; the remain- nvent under oath, before an offi cer qualified to administer oaths, and file said statement with the Town Clerk setting forth: (1) His or her name, style of firm, name of Company, or cor poration. (2) The trade, business, profes sion or occupation for which a li cense is required. (3) The amount of business proposed to be done during the current year and in those cases in ing ones earned very modest in comes — far below the overall general industry level Fortun ately, Joanna came in this latter category. I am sure the main reason for our generally better showing in our type industry was due to the outstanding coopera tive spirit among all of us. We have been confronted with many problems, changes, new work 10.00 .75 which.ucalntomutl<inl.r«iuir- > ^ but «ch th«« wt. i*.??.K 1< ?2L.iL?"iSrV‘S! solved successfully due to this during the previous year in the same occupation, trade, business or profession if the same was car ried on or prosecuted the previous year. The Town Clerk shall there upon assess and collect the proper license tax as provided for in this ordinance, and upon such tax be ing paid, shall issue to the appli cant the proper license. Section 8. For any business, trade, occupation or .profession successfully _ wonderful teamwork. We certainly wanted to keep five days a week and so it was all of our looms running at least necessary to find new outlets for this production. For some time now we have been diverting this production into the standard print doth market. We were not the only mill doing this; also, new mills have ben built to make much lighter rovinga. You spin ners had the task of handling lighter carded yams, producing much finer combed yarns of the highest quality, and even chang ing to reverse twist yams. The weave rooms sad to set up looms on multi-harness from two-har ness operation, change over to lighter yarns, and at the same time maintain the highest type of quality production. Those in charge of selling our product had to seek out new customers and develop new contacts. Another big event for all of us was the distribution of the wage dividend for the siteenth year. This year $261,769.47 was distrib uted among 1,650 Joanna em ployees in keeping with our com pany’s profit-sharing plan. Be cause of the wholehearted coop eration of each and everyone at Joanna, this check was made pos sible. The fine Joanna spirit of tackling difficult problems in changing our products, as already mentioned, best shows why %e at Joanna can consistently pay these bonuses.’’ That is an example of fine management Mr. Regnery, like his extraordinary father, will say it was leadership and splendid cooperation. Well certainly ev erybody at Joanna is happy. Alcoholism Todov By Maxi# C. Collins. Fair view Alcoholic Rehabilita tion Canter. Ridgoway. S. C. not enumerated in Section 1 of these fabrics, so that by the early this Ordinance, the license shall be fixed by the Mayor and he is hereby given full power and au thority to fix same and such li cense therefor as shall be fixed by the Mayor shall be as binding in every respect as though it were specifically enumerated as desig nated in this Ordinance. Section 9. The license taxes herein imposed are levied for the purpose of raising funds to meet the annual ordinary expenses of the Town of Clinton for the fiscal year commencing on the 1st day of January, 1955, and for the pur pose of paying in whole or in part any legal indebtedness of the said city incured for ordinary expens es thereof falling due during the said fiscal year. All annual licenses must be paid on or before March 1; part of this year, over-production in this field was so great that prices were gradually being forc ed down to the break-even or losing point. We were faced then with two alternatives: one, stay in the print cloth market by cut ting our costs, at the expense of quality, by using mass produc tion methods, or second, find new fields where we could reap the benefits of our many years of high quality production. We de cided, wisely I am sure, upon this latter idea. This change has been going on gradually all year and is now complete. We are out of the highly competifive, low re turn print clotl\ market. Today, all of our looms are operating on specialties demanding all of our uu ui ; maximum efforts of know-how 1955, or penalty of an additional a . , ... • i and skill that, in years to come, 10 per cent charge after March l,i , ,, , ... ! . . ; wll make all af our positions at 1955. If license is not paid by March 15, 1955, the business will be closed by the Police Depart ment and action brought in the Town Court, under Section 4 of this Ordinance for the misde meanor of doing business without positions Joanna much more secure. The above changes might be easy to write or talk about, but all of us know they have taxed all of our utmost skills and ca pacities. It hasn’t been easy for | any of us. The card room em license.

(Town Seal) 1 die much longer and finer fibred cotton, install and learn the new combing operation, and produce Hie ability of an individual to accept social responsibility de termines his fitness to live in the kind of society we have. With out social responsibility, all the wheels of our society would stop, or order would b$ replaced by disorder and eventual chaos. Inadequate social responsibil ity is found in alcoholics almost as frequently as fear. Often this inadequacy can be traced bade to the family group in which the al coholic grew up. In the family the child learns to think of him self as an individual; to know success and failure; to take care of himself and at times to fight for his right to share in family life as a part of the group, to be recognized as an individual; to share the gifts of other members of the group to the common life, and in time, to make his own con tribution. A Where these lessons are im properly learned In childhood, in adequate social responsibility may result in adult life. The average alcoholic, if there is such a person, dislikes responsibility. He does not want to be tied down to a job; to have to support a wife or children. He does not want to pay alimony or to help support his children, if he is divorced. He hates regular hours, regular rou tines. He is careless about pay ing his debts, shows little appre ciation by his actual repayment for kindnesses; or help, though he may dream about doing some thing, and may speak well of his benefactor (talk is cheap). He may walk out on a job without telling his employer expecting to He may be late for appointments, return to the job if it suits him. or not show up at all. He may half-heartedly do his job, but will expect full pay. Ha is us ually ready to accept money not earned, if it is offered. Ha may go into debt for things ha cannot pay for, and do hundreds of other things which indicate that ha feels the world owes him a living and he owes the world nothing. Lack of social responsibility al so shows up in his lack of inter- eset in his community; his indif ference to his church or the school his children attend; hit neglect of the duties of citizen ship. Again, inadequate social re sponsibility shows up in little things, such as inadequate fam ily adjustment He resents hav ing to help wash or dry the dish es, give the children a bath, or having to mow the lawn. There fore, he may put off mowing the lawn until it becomes a major task; may delay a minor car re pair or house repair an til it be comes a major job. Deep down inside, all of us know that by the sweat of our brows we eat bread—that every time we eat, it is because some one has sweat and toiled. So, re jection of social responsibility does bring disharmony into the life. Cain asked: “Am I my broth er’s keeper?” And today mil lions ask it in the same spirit as Cain. Actually, only those who have an honest interest in the welfare of others are able to find real happiness. No man can be selfish and interested in self alone and find peace and happi- As Jesus said, “Truly, as ye did it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye did it unto me.” OFFICE SUPPLIES We Do An Kinds of Prtnftofl CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO. 36.00 .75 25.00 IF YOU DONT READ THE CHRONICLE YOU DON’T GET THE NEWS WE DO ALL KINDS OF PRINTING—EXCEPT BAD CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO.
