, Don't Want To Work, Let's Hope Not
Either the Murphy - Cherokee County ere* does not have
enough people lo work In ? plant that requires 500 workers, or
the people In this area do not want or need work.
This last thought has caused some questions to come Into the
minds of the men who are trying to bring a new Industry to the
Murphy area.
Some Cherokee County people have refused to fill out the
Labor Survey forms being circulated by the Murphy Chamber of
Commerce.
All In the world that the Murphy Chamber of Commerce wants
to know Is "If you would take ajoblli new Industrial plant Is
located in the Murphy - Cherokee County area?" The key word
Is "IF." This Is a small word, but carries a lot of weight.
Nowhere does the form say you must take a Job, all It asks
is would you take a Job If the Industrial plant comes and of
course. If It suits you. ?
The only way this Information can be gathered is for the
people of Murphy and the surrounding area to fill out one of
the Labor Survey forms. These forms will be available on the
square in Murphy Friday and Saturday, at Murphy grocery
stores, any Citizens Bank and Trust Co. office, and any Post
Office In Cherokee County.
If you have one of the forms at home now, fill It out today,
it won't cost you a cent and you will be playing a big part In
helping to bring a new Industry to your area. Fill out a form
for yourself, your children that are working In Atlanta, Ohio,
out west, Gastonla, etc. Fill out one for any other of your rela
tives not living here but would like to come back home and work
IF THEY COULD FIND A JOB HERE.
