President A.C. Richmond of the Oak Lane Knitting Mills gave out a statement this week in which he expressed himself as being highly pleased with his business venture here. Orders have been coming in until he has a good supply ahead and more are expected every day.
He was especially warm in his praise of the quality of labor that he has been able to find here. He stated that in all of his experience in the north and east he had never had a more satisfactory labor supply. “The labor supply of this section is intelligent, quick to learn, and eager to work,” he said, and he is fast building up a good working organization. Every few days sees a shipment of knit goods going out form the Murphy plant and the production is increasing from week to week. Mr. Richmond is very much pleased with the situation here.
