Cotton Is Suggested
F7r Bomb Shelters
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Fless'
Cotton instead of reinforced con-
crete for air raid shelters was pro-
posed yesterday.
E. C. Wallace, New York engineer
Who conceived the idea. told mem
bers of Congress that a 7-toot
thickness of cotton would resist the
penetration of a 6,o00-pound bomb
falling from 10000 feet, whereas a
2O0o-pound bomb falling $4,000 feet
would penetrate 6 feet OF REIN
forced concrete. The cotton can be
fireproofed. it was said. so that in
ccndiary bombs would have little
effect.
Mr.. Wallace's idea stirred enthu-
s'astic interest among members OF
Congress from the cotton producing
states.
Representative Boykin, Democrat
Alabama, explained it in letter
to members. and said he hoped to
get a Joint demonstration by the
ARMY and Navy. with the Air Corps
dropping the bombs.
Mr.. Boykin said the use OF cotton
for all-purpose shelters would ao-
sorb large quantities OF surplus
cotton.
Plans of the designers call for
spans of 200 feet or more with clear
ceiling and insulated sheet steel
side walls. The roof would be made
of 7-foot thick baled cotton TIED IN
place by heavy steel wire netting.
woven wire mesh" said Mr.. wal
lace. "has been approved as means
of camoufage and this design mas
utilized this method as additional
nrotection to the shelter. The design
calls for two specially woven wire
mats having a tensile strength OF
100000 pounds to the square inch,
These mats are to be separated, ap-
proximately feet apart, and sup
rorted on an angle above the cotton
roof
THE method of weaving the top
mat and the angle at which 1t Is
placed should defect any falling
bombs, and if not exploded should
retard the fall and cause the bomo
TO hit the second screen on its SIDE.
The second mat should resist the
fan of any bomb up to 1000 POUNDS,
and if it is a delayed-action oomo'

Dover's ladder was in use three

back to growers more of the retail

etables than the 35l cents which is
the national average received by
produce growers marketing through
all trade channels
In some instances, where fruits
and vegetables are trucked directly
from growing areas to A. and p.
super markets and all extra in-be-
tween costs are reduced to a mimi
mum, our suppliers receive as much
as so to IS cents OF the retail dol
lar for some produce" he added
He explained that for Delaware
produce marketed through all trade
channels, consumers today are
spending about $14,000,0O0 year
for fruits, vegetables and nuts, but
costs of distribution are eating up
approximately $S,440,000 of this
total Latest reports Of the U. S.
Department OF Agriculture show
that Delaware growers themselves
are getting only about $5,551,000 a
year from the sales of fruits, Tege-
tables and nuts
French declared that although
the marketing system has been

by some Of the nations mass distri-
butors, the trouble is that the great
bulk of farm produce is still moved

whereby this produce is handled |
and re-handled. passed from trade

with extra costs and profits added

AS means Of reducing the
spread between prices paid by con-

adoption Of "streanilined" distri-
button methods already developed
by some grower-groups working
