normal fall buying. But huge
amounts of cotton are being
bought in June to go overseas to put
occupied countries in working order
as soon as the army takes over.
Overseas allotmentS of cloth were
based on the first six months pre-
duction, but the actual ALLEGATION
didn't take place till late in May,
leaving most of the buying for June.
That means low-cost cottons will
be hard to find for the present,
with as much as 40 per cent OF
some typ,s, such as poplins and
brCadcloth. on their way out of
the country.
That's all the more reason, WPB
textile experts point out, for using
the cloth on hand for the home
folks to make loW-cost clothes with
standards of durability. Without
strCng incentive for manufacturers
you might find inexpensive every
