FOOL PUBLIC NOW
And Manufacturers Resist
Plan to Label Cloth

Chicago.-In resisting the plan to
label cloth, opponents are acting on
the theory that they have a divine
right to fool the public, says the ma
tional sheep and wool bureau of Amer
lea.
This bureau is urging the adoption
by congress of the French-Capper
truth -in-fabric" bill. 1t is designed
to compel textile manufacturers to
stamp their cloth with its content of
virgin new wool and Of wool substi-
tutes, the chief of which is shoddy-
old rags, reworked in some cases as
often as eight times.
The measure seeks to apply to
fabric production the principle un-
derlying the pure food law and has
been approved by anufacturers who
have never sought to deceive the pub
lie by permitting their shoddy cloth to
asquerade as virgin wool cloth under
cover of the popularly misunderstood
technical textile term "all wool"
There is no chemical test to prove
the presence of wool shoddy in "all
wool" cloth Only the wearing tells
the tale-and it tells the tale after
the purchaser is fooled and the pur-
chase price is paid.
1--WE insist" says the bureau, "that
the reason that certain textile man
ufacturers wish to continue manu-
featuring "all wool" cloth out of un-
identified shoddy is that they can make
more money through the use of shod-
dy that through the use of virgin wool
If there was a compulsory labelling
law, they'd have to ask the people a
lower price for shoddy cloth, because
the people would not pay virgin wool
cloth prices for cloth that the actually
knew was shoddy."

AUTO DRIVER BLAMED

Montgomery, Ala.-The state su-

mobile driver can not be excused from
iniuring a pedestrian because the lat
ter failed to cross street at the
point designated by city officials The
defense maintained that the pedestrian
violated city ordinance designed to
suppress what is commonly termed

The court held that the driver of
an automobile owes duty to keep
a lookout for pedestrians, not only at
regular street crossings, but between
as well.
