Why do you have 70 ply Is esnts
yard for gingham that would have
sold four years ago for 25 cents?
One reason, explains Richard Ting
ley, in Forbes Magazine, Is that the
manufacturers Of cotton goods were
suddenly called upon to switch their
industry that had been "set" or
sgaugcd" to produce the goods OF
the civilian trade to the production
Of the goods of war. The war found
the cotton mill men working on well.
established lines, producing just
about goods enough Tor little bit
more) to meet the needs Of our
home people. War stepped in and
told them that they must reorganize
their smooth-running factories and
produce the goods Of war. The re-
suit has been that, for the last two
years their factories were working
about 40 per cent OH the goods Of
war, and about GO per cent on civil
ian goods. More than this. The dis
ruption OF organization has resulted
in loss Of efficiency in the produc-
ton Of civilian goods Of at least 90
per cent, so it is safe TO say that the
production Of cotton goods such ~
you and ! wear has been but about
50 per cent of normal since the war
began. To give you an idea Of what
this means, | will say that this 80
per cent shortage amounted, in 1918
alone, to upward Of 100000, 900
