AU of US who live in South Carolina—
no matter what our Jobe may be—^would
have a hard time recognizing this State
of oure if its textile industry suddenly
disappeared in thin air. Directly or indi
rectly it affects um all giving jobs to
people we know, utilizing $he services of
thousands of others, using the produce
of our farms, payidg taxes, and, of course,
providing us and all the nation with
goods that are essential to everyday life
and of special importance now in our
fight for Victory.
The textile industry is only one of the ’
vital mainsprings of South Carolina’k
well-being — arid yet its products are
valued at more than six hundred million
dollars annually and their numufacture
gives direct employment to mcne than •
hundred and ten thousand workora.
South Carolina, ranking second in th*
nation in textile products, Is likewise tlyf
home of many other flotuishing indua-
tries, prominent among them being lum
ber products, paper and pulp, clothing,
and fertilizEr.

trial achievements of our fellow South
Caroliniana—:fuid take part in them, tool
IPs our job—-in wartime as in peacetime
