Mlnette, Director, submitted to the of ficers and directors of the Warren County Industrial De velopment Commission, showing industrial develop ment during the past year and prospects for future de velopment, is printed below. Having served as Director of the Commission for a lit tle more than one year, I believe It only fitting to pro vide a written summary of the Commission's activities dur ing this period. During January and Feb ruary 1965, conslderabletlme was spent getting the office, equipment, etc., In order as well as making contacts with the various industrial de velopment agencies to let them know Warren County was In the industrial development business. One of the first real assets In the Development of our County in 1965 was the ac quisition, by lease, of the Virginia - Carolina Lumber Company by General Box Cor proalion.?Manufacturing po tential of General Box is un limited and indications of their growth are being felt. Increasing employment In the male labor field, Areola Lumber Company expanded their operations In their saw mill and tobacco hogshead production. To determine availability of Warren County labor, aCoun ty-wlde survey was conducted by the Commission. The re sults were tabulated by the North Carolina Employment Security Commission and in corporated in Communitydata sheets which were published by the North Carolina Depart ment of Commerce and In dustry. In an effort to strengthen the Industrial Development Com mission and provide addition al services Industry export and demand. The Warren County Chamber of Com merce was organized under the direction of this office. The Chamber had had a suc cessful year which will cul minate with their first annual banquet on March 24, 1966? General Lawrle, Cdm'mkidlrfg General of the 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, to be the guest speaker. Prob ably one of the greatest com munity sei vliea provided by the Chamber was opening of a license agency. The agency has been extremely success ful and net profit from this agency Is being directed to ward Commission and Cham ber administrative expenses. However, opening of the lic ense agency necessitated moving of Commission and Chamber offices to the ground floor of the Taylor building, which resulted In temporary Increase of Commission ex penses. This should level off by the second quarter of 1966. Norllna Industries opened with a flourish and closed with a thud. The parent company was highly recommended by the North Carolina Commerce and Industry Division, and the Dun & Bradstreet financial reports were In order.
