KendaU Mills
President Henry P. Kendall of
the Kendall Company has 'released
his annual report to stockholders,
covering the company's 1947 ope
rations at its 18 domestic and
foreign plants, one of which Is ita
Wateree Mill at Camden.
Consolidated net sales for 1947
were 179,536,882,' 33 per cent high
er than, in 1946. While there waa
an Incr^se in unit prices which
reflected the continuing advances
in wage, material and fupply
costa
Consolidated net proQt was |7.-
012,841, after all expenses and af
ter incomes taxes of $8,041,046. The
company’s cotton ntills and finish
ing plants made an important con
tribution to the good "results of
1947 through high volume aided by
good teamwork, new machinery
and improved manufacturing ef
ficiency.
While earnings were the ti«st in
the company’s history, current un
certainties in the imtion'al and in
ternational general' economic sit-
nation, and particularly the com
pany’s own requirements for addi
tional capital, limited the propor
tion of earnings which the direc
tors believed could wisely be paid
out currently in dividends. Total
1947 dividends were $1,377,009. or
about one-fifth of net earnings.
The remainder of the 194.7 profit,
amounting to $5,635,832, was re
tained in the business to provide
for present and future ^ needs,
which included an extensive pro
gram of machinery replacements
and more working capital to meet
the-requirements of enlarged vol
ume. During 1947 $2,513,141 went
into inventory increases, and over
$1,900,000 was spent for plant and
equipment. Present plans call for
even 'higher capital expenditures
for 1948. This plant improvement
program Is designed to keep Ken
dall plants modern and effieleat.
while the strengthening of the com
pany’s financial and competitive
position as a result of goad aam-
hifs will h^p safeguard the Jobs
and opportunities of sdl Kendall
employees against the hazards of
the future.
President Kendall noted that
production and sales have been at
high levels during the first two
months of 1948, but buyers are now
showing more couMriratism in for*
ward purchasing and the confnsed
economic and political situation at
home and abfoi^ makes it impra^
tical to try tlof forecast the full
year at this time.

in 1819 waa a glittering affair, with
the visitors in shining armor and
the Aztec diieftain and his court

and bejewelcd clothingn^.
Ostensibly, the Sgwniarda' flrit
descent on die Axtec stronghold in
the high valley of Mexico was a
peaceful one. ’Ihen came die series
of events diat left Spain matter of

When the Spaniards killed a group
at worshippers and destroyed the
Aztec idols in templas stained with
the blood of .ancient saeriflclal
rites, the pofiulace roae in fury.
Cortes and bis diattared army were
forced to flee. But the rout was
temporary. The return of the Span
ish forces, reinforced by additional
troops and horses, arms and ships,
saw a life-and-deali struggle that
ended in Spanish victory, with the
dty of Tenochtitlsn in ruins.. snd
the stones of its magnificent build
ings filling the canals.
