A campaign pitches Mobile residents to attract a high-grade factory by presenting a solvent and well-run plant that employs people year round and pays wages every Saturday afternoon. The message emphasizes stable operation and steady pay to persuade local support.
The Hamilton Realty & Financing Corporation urges 1000 residents of Mobile to donate 12.50 each to fund a new factory within 60 days. Donors receive a blank check and funds are returned if the 12,500 target is not met by 6 pm Saturday. The note cites the O K Knitting Mills move and promises no deposit until the goal is achieved.
