Abstract:

This is the first of a series of articles of unusual industries which have been established in North Carolina. In 1939, WIX Accessories Corporation began operations in Gastonia. Ten years later it ranks as the nation's fourth largest automotive oil filter manufacturer and only one of two such plants in the South.
