WE BUY LAND AND TIMBER j28a30inc T. W. Kem of Salisbury is president and James L. Williams Jr. of Candor is vice president and general manager of the new concern which has already start ed construction of a building it will occupy. I The company has acquired 15 acres on N. C. Highway 211 east of Aberdeen. The land is near the Aberdeen and Rockfisli Railroad, which will build spur tracks to the lumber plant. Kem and Wil liams, Lockey said, now own ten sawmills in the State and from these mills will co‘me the raw material for processing into vari ous lumber products. Lockey said credit for locating the lumber plant at Aberdeen is due “in great part to the efforts of Henry Blue, president of the Aberdeen and Rockfish Railroad, and William P. Saunders, director of the Department of Conserva tion and Development.” Textron Earnings Off Because Of Textile Losses For the first five months of 1956 total sales of Textron, Inc., were slightly less than $89 mil lion, with earnings amounting to $3,420,000, it has been announced by Royal Little, chairman of the board. In making the announcement to security holders, Mr. Little said that a total loss of $731,000 had to be absorbed in the tesrtile division of the giant corporation. “We are currently reducing the size of our- textile business to eliminate certain divisions which have proven unprofitable,” he said. The company announced several weeks ago the sale of the Raeford and Clarksville, Va., tex tile plants. Little said that, as a result of the changes contemplated in the textile division and an anticipa ted improvement in prices in, the fall, Amerotron would be on a profitable basis during the last quarter. At the same time Little an nounced that an important acqui sition for Textron, which has been in the negotiating stage for sonie time, would, if consumma ted, increase the annual rate of the non-textile volume of Tex tron to approximately $200 mil lion.
