women viii notice very little diff
ference between the new types and
thos ethey formerly purchased, the
War Production Board announced
today. The new regulations, how
ever, are designed TO make them
wear better and last longer, while
a saving of almost 100000 pounds
Of hosiery yarn each year without
decrease of quality or sacrifice Of
style. is anticipated.
Plenty of sheer stockings will be
made, but even they must give rea-
sonahle wear. There is no ban on
lace or lace mesh types In rayon,
cotton. or the two combined, but
lace garter bands and similar de-
tails are out. Heels, toes and gar
ter tops must have sturdier REIN
forcements. Recent ALLEGATIONS OF
imported long staple cotton, for
strengthening rayon stockings, are
expected to increase durability as
much as 200 per cent.
Hosiery lengths are specified, but
are not striking departures from
accepted constructions. Because
comfortable 1T is an important fea-
ture of wear. short, average and long
