ee ae oe | 22 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, June 20, 1963 | | BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT School Provides Textile Workers ST. HYACINTHE, Que. (AP) A bright, expansive technical school in this industrial centre 30 miles east of Montreal, is supplying a steady stream of trained personnel to the textile industry, one of the province's largest employers of manufac- turing labor. The Textile Institute of Que- bec has been graduating an av- erage of 25 men a year since 1949, most of them French-Ca- nadians. Of this spring's 20 graduates, 19 were French-Ca- nadians, $e After a three - year course, the graduates move into jobs as foremen or assistant fore- men, personnel work, time study work, quality control work, designing, sales, labora- tory work, etc. "This isn't just a nuts-and- bolt school," said a spokesman | for Dominion Textile Co, Ltd.,| the country's largest producer of cotton textiles, "More than half of our as- sistant foremen are institute graduates." Figures } | | show the average) salary of institute graduates of| 10 years ago is about $6,200.) Average salary for 1950 gradu- ates of a similar, but smaller, school in Hamilton, Ont., is $7,000. The school is operated by the Quebec government, but a big} helping hand is given by the provinces textile industry, which produces about 60 per cent of the national output. Textile companies donated al- most: all the machines to the school, and have given it about $1,250,000 in scholarships since | | | it opened in 1945. More than} half the students are on 'schol-/ arship. There were more than 60 jobs in textile mills for this year's 20 graduates, Since the textile industry started an upsurge in 1961, the school enrolment is be- ing increased, with 33 scheduled to graduate next spring and about 45 by 1966, The school has a large task ahead of it in the next 10 years, since inlustry estimates say about 3,000 new _ technically trained men will be needed in of salaried occupations in the industry has grown by about 30 per cent during the iast 15 years while wage-earning occupations dropped by 25 per cent. To help meet the snowballing demand for more technically qualified men, institute profes- sors and graduates are giving night courses in mills through- out the Eastern Townships dis- trict in southwestern Quebec, where the province's textile in- dustry is centred.
