Vast Demand Springs Up Over
night After Wales Appears in
Bright Sweater.
BIZ the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 13.-How widely the
foibles Of the Prince Of Wales for sar-
torial effect are watched and copied
has just come out at a meeting Of bus
mess men discussing trade secrets.
It was related that the heir to the
throne on one occasion was seen wear
ing a bright Fair Isle sweater. Over.
night this fact created an enormous
demand. The hand knitters on Fair
Isle, way up in the Shetland Islands,
off the coast of Scotland, suddenly
were 80 swarnped with orders that
some Of them had to be turned over to
Donegal knitters.
Then Leicester manufacturers
evolved a machine, which made a fine
imitation of the pull-over, and a Euro
pean demand followed which kept the
machines going day and night for
months.
