VICKS REPORTS 164 PER
CENT PAYROLL INCREASE
Greensboro, N. C., Nov. 18.—For the
five month 3 period ending October 31,
employment here at the laboratories of
Vick Chemical Company, makers of
Vicks VapoRub and other aids to bet
ter control of colds, reached an all-
time peak, and payrolls increased 164
per cent, over the,corresponding pe
riod of 1934.
_ . v
This record is all the more impres-,
sive in view of the fact that Vicks em
ployment showed progressive upward
steps throughout the depression. The
company gained national recognition
in 1932-1933—at the lowest point of
depression—in showing an employ
ment increase of more than 100 per
cent, over the best normal recorcfe of
pre-depression years. At the same
time came the rather startling an
nouncement that no Vicks salaiy had
ever been cut because of “hard times.”
This record „Vicks has consistently
maintained—outstandingly doing, its
share to speed recovery in employ
ment and wages during the past five
difficult years. In fact, Vicks’ expan
sion policies were already carrymg
out what the federal government
sought with it s N. R. A. in the sum
mer of 1933 to increase employment—
and it is- noteworthy that Vicks still
adheres, in all its laboratories and of
fices, to the five-day, 40-hour week
prescribed by a codie no longer bind
ing.
While exact figures are not avail
able except for lab iratory forces, the
office employees, technical staffs and
management groups employed by
Vicks have also shown marked in
creases in payrolls and personnel
through the years since 1928-29.
Al! of which reflects a period of
continuing increases in volume cf
Vicks sales. Not only have Sales of
its leader, Vicks VapoRub, increased,
but—with the progressive addition <;f
Vicks Va-tro-nol, Vicks Medicated
Cough Drops and Vicks Voratonc An
tiseptic—now over *53 million Vick
aids to better control of colds are used
yearly, in the United States alone.
“Depression?” said Lunsford 1 Rich
ardson, president of the company, a
few ctoys ago when asked about con-
ditions* “Vicks isn’t afraid of ‘depres
sions.’ Fact is, we were born in the
depressi«n-6f 1907, and since then
they’ve proved 1 stimulants rather than
dejrNwsants to Vicks.”
Therecord seems to bear him out.
And an item in that record of impres
sive interest to business men is that,
throughout depression, Vicks ha s con
sistently increased its use of newspa
per space, always looked upon as the
backbone of its advertising. This sea
son Vicks is using the largest , list in
its history—over 2,600 newspapers.
Extends Time for Auto Tags.
A month-long license enforcement
holiday was put into effect Tuesday by
an executive order extending the time
for purchasing 1936 automobile tags
to December 1st.
The new licenses were required by
law October 31st, but Governor Olin
Johnston’s military highway admin
istration granted two postponements
running through Wednesday and the
governor made a third extension per
sonally to round out the month.
He issued an executive order saying,
“In order to give'the people of South
Carolina full opportunity to purchase
licenses for fh^ir automobiles, I am
hereby extending the time of pur
chasing tags, without enforcement of
the law, until December 1, 1935.
“I, therefore, authorize and request
the bed^ d of managers of the highway
department to instruct highway pa
trolmen not to molest those w r ho have
not as yet purchased their 1936 license
plates, until December 1, 1935.”
The two previou s postponements,
fro^n October 31 to November 15 and
from then until Dec. 1st, also were
granted liecause of a heavy rush of
late registrations.
