Robert M. Vance, president of Clinton Mills, noted that the industry-wide raise is the fifth in the last four years and represents nearly a 30 per cent over-all pay increase in that period. “Few industries can match this record of wage improve ment in so short a period of time,” said Vance in a statement. “And it appears all t.h e more remarkable when one considers that tex tile industry profits, slumping now after three years of growth, have never amounted to more than 6Vfe per cent of sales in any quarter during The Laurens.Baptist Assoc- t hat time. This high point, in will observe “M” night late 1965, was still les than fourths of the .average for all manufacturing companies.” Grant of Chester; James T.
