The CottonMill Dollar
The following statement for the month of March, 1929, from one of South
Carolina's most substantial wide-print cloth cotton mills, shows the percentage
of expense distributed to various accounts. More than half of the wide
print cloths made in America are produced in South Carolina. A mill of this
type illustrates the present status of mill operators and operatives, as regards
their shares in each dollar of gross sales.
. T The amount paid to the operatives absorbs nearly the entire gross profit
after deducting the other necessary expenses of interest, power, depreciation,
cotton, supplies, etc.
This statement is taken from the books of a mill which is
without plant debt. The iYiill equipment is modern and upto-date,
with upwards of. f0,000 spindles and 1,500 looms.
