ST. CLOUD — More than a year after Electrolux announced it would close its St. Cloud plant, the company has set an end date for production at the facility.

Production for all lines and shifts is scheduled to end Nov. 1, according to a written statement from the company. Approximately 90% of the company's employees will be permanently laid off at that time.

The remaining 10% of employees will be winding down operations for several months afterwards, the company said earlier this week.

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
