Broadcasters, Newscasters Tour Various
Textile Plants In Georgia And Alabama
Wise Words
Eleven television
broadcasters toured the Phenix
City Towel Finishing Plant,
Phenix City, Ala. on April 10.
The tour was part of the annual
Textile Talk Tour sponsored by
the American Textile Manu
facturers Institute. This year’s
tour included, in addition to the
Fieldcrest plant. West Point
Peppered, Deering Milliken and
Swift Textiles.
The broadcasters were mainly
women who have their own talk
shows, but the group also
included several newscasters.
They came from all across the
country including the states of
Montana, Washington, Kansas,
and Nebraska.
Films were made both prior to
the tours and during the tours for
use on television. The purpose of
the annual tour, according to the
American Textile Manu
facturers Institute, is to inform
the general public about the
textile industry. The films are
being shown in 10 television
market areas and are estimated
to reach approximately 2.2 mil
lion women.
The broadcasters, many of
whom were seeing textile manu
facturing for the first time,
expressed amazement at the
complexity of the manufactur
ing processes and the
progressiveness of the plants
they visited.
Sales Meeting
(Continued from Page One)
You cannot bring about
prosperity by discouraging
thrift. You cannot strengthen the
weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot help the wage earner
by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot further the brother
hood of man by encouraging
class hatred. You cannot help
the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble
by spending more than you earn.
You cannot build character and
courage by taking away man’s
initiative and independence. You
cannot help men permanently by
doing for them what they could
and should do for themselves.

successful one.
