"TURNING OUR RAW MATERIALS INTO FINISHED

"A sure way lo pul more dollars into the pockets of Southeastern people is to process
mope of our raw materials into finished products at home'' says Mr. Groves.
"Wages paid out for the processing of field crops and woodland harvests exceed the
value of these raw materials themselves. When these wages, as well as the original cost j
of the harvest, are turned into our communities there are many more busy dollars to
nay calls on all kinds of business.
"Pulpwood is a good example. It has long been a source of extra income for farmers and ij
■j
woodland owners. Now that we have our own Southeastern plants for converting pine in
to paper, paperboard, bags and boxes, it is a source of extra income for the community.”
