Postwar cash flood boosts Kings Mountain and Cleveland County
A Shelby Daily Star survey shows Cleveland County residents hold over 50 million in readily convertible assets, with Kings Mountain bank deposits at record highs and Victory Loan sales surpassing county goals. Deposits in three local banks rose to 28 plus million, up dramatically in five years, while war bond investments exceed 83 million overall through December 17. The article notes heavy bank liquidity and confidence, plus local 4-H achievements, including a 14-year-old member's award-winning garden production and civic support from the State College Extension Service.
