tion of rayon yarn for textile use
by 10000. 900 pounds.

He said il mas not been decided
what part of the country will
finally be chosen for the expan-

Need for the plant was
prompted, he said, by conversion
of the company's facilities during
wartime from textile yarn TO the
stronger tire yarns. The third
largest producer OF viscose rayon
in the country, the company spent
100000 in converting and ex-
panding for tire yarn. he said.
Textile yarn exclusively was

Packer. erstwhile sales eXecu-

now a Pontiac distributor.
When he was with one of the
C. NJ. divisions, they became a
little dissatisfied with sales in
one area and Bill went down
to pep the boys UP. At big
meeting, the district sales man
ager explained TO Bill that this
marked the conclusion OF a big
sales drive and that you couldn't
sell another car in that area in
a month.
Look. brother" said Bill
'1ll bet 90 bucks i can sell
n car within the next two
hours"
The bet was taken, Bill went
out into the street and almost
immediately Tagged down a
battered old car containing a
farmer. his wife and two chill
dren. They were bound for
vacation trip and luggage was
loaded all over the jallOpy.
Within 10 minutes. the load
had been transferred 10 a shiny
new car. Bill had pocketed the
balance needed for down pay

way-and Bill was back con-
