THIS IS AMEROTRON.
what it means to our community
Any company, managed soundly,
well directed in its financial and
operating methods, can bring an
abiding strength to any commu
nity. This strength finds expres
sion in a continuing feeling of
security and of stability in the
peace of mind of its working men
and women, their families and the
entire community. It also creates
new jobs when it produces prod
ucts which the public finds in
creasingly desirable and thus enlarges the demand further.
Amerotron, including the operations in our community, has twenty-
nine mills, located in communities in the Eastern and Southern States.
Amerotron came into existence as a result of the joining of three im
portant companies, American Woolen Company, Robbins Mills, Inc., and
Textron Incorporated.
While each of these companies, separately had something useful to
contribute to the American economy, the men who managed them saw
clearly that by integrating the separate capacities of the three companies
under a single guidance, each company could take strength from the
other, and give strength to the other. Under one integrated business
structure, a cross-pollination of these know-hows would invigorate the
new enterprise with a strength and resiliency that none of the companies
could generate so fully by themselves. Present and future economic and
technical changes could be met with a new assurance, confidence and vigor.
To accomplish these worthwhile purposes, Amerotron Corporation
now assumes complete administration and control of all the textile opera
tions of the combined companies and will give a strong, unified direction
to management, production, purchasing, research, advertising, styling
and sales. , . '
Amerotron pledges all its energies in developing a constantly widen
ing measure of respect^and confidence from the communities it belongs
to. Amerotron asks, in all fairness, a full measure of cooperative under
standing from its communities in return.
