Southern Goodyear Day
"Opening of the new Goodyear tire
flint at Gadsden, Ala., marks an im
pressive forward stride in the indus
trial development of the South. It
is significant of our future that the
world's greatest rubber company sees
in the South its best opportunity for
expansion."
These are the words of the Hon.
Bibb Graves, governor of Alabama, in
commenting on the celebration of
Southern Goodyear day tomorrow.
The new plant is the fourth manu
facturing investment of the Goodyear
company In the South, in addition to
many distribution and branch estab
lishments. The company already op.
erates a 60,000 spindle tire textile
mill at Cedartown, On., Is building
another 60,000 spindle mill at Rock
mart, Ga. and recently purchased a
third 60,000 spindle mill at Atco, Ga.
Gov. Graves' statement was wired
today by Sup't F. A. Steele of the Gad
sden plant to Louisburg Service Sta
tion, Goodyear dealers here.
"Southern Goodyear Day is a busi
ness celebration," says Claude C. Col
lins of the Louisburg Service Station,
"bnt it has a real interest for car own.
era too.
"This Is the first time a major tire
company has actually built tires In
the South. It means a lot, we think,
that it is the one tire company that
commands outstandibg leadership In
the Industry. Tou will see that where
Goodyear points the way, others will
follow. I make that as a prediction
and want you to check me up on It.
Just watch."
The local Goodyear dealers, In lea.
gue with other dealers all over this,
the Raleigh torrltory. have pledge
themselves to sell in one day?to
morrow?the equivalent of one entire
