FLAX FOR JUTE

A plan for substituting U. S. flax
for India jute to relieve the des-
perate farm shortage of binder
Irvine, burlap bags and carpet bag
cling has struck snag in the War
Production Board and Foreign Econ
omic Administration. Though it
would mean new income to U. s..
flax farmers after the war, WPB and
FEA experts from the jute trade
have blocked it.
The project calls for using the
flaXseed straw, now burned by most
farmers, for production OF fibre.
The process already has been test
ed. Meanwhile, the jute usually
used for farm purposes is being
used for Army Navy rope. Mean
while, also, many carpet companies
the Deltox Rug Co of Oshkosh,
Wis, the Mohawk Carpet Mills of
Amsterdam, N Y, the Bigelow San
ford Carpet Co. of New York City,
Alexander Smith G. Sons Of Yon-
kers, NJ ", and the Magee Carpet
Co of Bloomsbury, Pa.-all have
idle machinery and would like to
bly, flax for manufacture OF carpets.
These companies normally pur-
chase jute carpet yarns from Dud
low Manufacturing Associates. Lud-
low, Mass, and if they turned from
India jute to u S. flax in wartime,
they might never return to jute.
Thus, all jute importers and manu-
facturers are worried
Some people, however, believe
they have little cause to worry be-
cause, in WPB and FEA are the
following jute men who have the
power to determine the future fate
of flax and jute:

Of Ludlow Manufacturing Associ-
ates, with offices in Boston and

that this is true of all the desk adj
