Three Graniteville and AM&M executives outline the impact of foreign textiles and the national downturn on Aiken County. Graniteville reports a six month loss of about 6.5 million with 500 layofs at the Warren Division, while Owens-Corning in Aiken slowdowns and new lines aim to boost profits. United Merchants and Manufacturers notes the industry’s low mood and Seminole Plant closure as markers of broader trouble.

North and South Carolina lawmakers urged President Reagan to restrict textile and apparel imports to aid the ailing industry. The meeting with Vice President Bush and top trade officials followed reports of a 1982 deficit potentially reaching 6.6 billion, with imports rising and exports falling. Senator Strom Thurmond said the request seeks growth-limited import levels aligned with domestic gains.
