TO SAVE SILK WEAVING ART

While at one time Lyon was the unchallenged center for silk textiles. the production of looms of the dis trict now has to compete with the silk fabrics of other countries. TWen- ty years ago it was publicly stated that it would not be surprising if the weaving of fine silk damasks, brocaded velvet. or a piece of cloth curiosity and to perpetuate their manufacture would be as costly for the state as the maintenance of the GObelin's establishment. Although twenty years have elapsed since this statement was uttered the Weavers Of Lyon are still able to make on their hand looms fabrics that in skilled workmanship. richness of de- sign and purity of quality are unsur passed
 In order that silk weaving in it's most perfect form as known in Lyon may not become a lost art vigorous measures are being taken to preserve from extinction the weaving of fine textiles, for which this district is famous Silk manufacturers, munich pal authorities and legislators are facing the situation in all seriousness. A committee was appointed by the chamber of deputies to study the de- mands relative to the condition of silk manufacture in Lyon and the best means to be taken for transforming the old looms. This committee was divided into three subcommittee, one of which devoteed itself entirely to the question of weaving in this city and made it's investigations last year. This subcommittee reported that it would urge the government to enact d law to improve the present state of the silk industry of Lyon.-NeW ". ia1
