Abstract:

Gastonia, located in Gaston County, is facing the coming year with a degree of confidence that assures the continuance of the community's national importance as a cotton manufacturing center. Citizens give credit for this improvement in conditions to the purchase and operation by the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company of one of the world's largest cord tire fabric mills--formerly known as the Loray Mill at Gastonia. This provides new employment and promotes development of the industrial sector of Gastonia.
