Investment
Required To
Create Jobs
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13— UP) —
A United States Chamber of Com
merce survey of Gastonia, N. C.,
styled as the ‘‘typical American
City," today indicated that a
worker’s job represented a money
investment of ®7,U00.
In a statement based on the

some $350,000,000,000 would be
needed to create jobs for 50,000,000
industrial workers.
On the strength of survey find
ings, the chamber said, capital in
vestment is essential to mainte

‘ If we are to have more jobs and
if these jobs are to yield higher
wages, we must have more capi
tal investment,” said Ralph Brad- j
ford, general manager of the
chamber. "We must not all try
to get on someone else’s payroll.
We need more payroll makers.”
Wholesale cotton merchants, the ,
chamber said, have an average in
vestment of $44,787 per worker.
The highest figure in retailing was
$8,000 per employe in furniture
stores.
"In manufacturing,” Bradford
said, “it was found that invest
ment per job ranges from about |
$8,000 for food processors down to
slightly less than $2,200 in cotton
spinning and cloth weaving.”
"In the distribution and service'
field, the average for the entire
group is over $7,000,” he added.
