STAPLE FIBRE IMPORTS
REMOVAL OF EXCISE LONDON, September 9. (Received Sept. 9, at 10.30 p.m.) " Staple fibre offers a valuable alternative for wool and cotton, and, being cheaper, will increase the British textile manufacturers' competitive power abroad," says the Daily Telegraph in commenting on the removal of excise from fibre.
Mr D. Van Someren, one of the promoters of the Staple Fibre Development Company, with a capital of £200.000, says the extensive use of fibre will permit all kinds of attire to be manufactured much cheaper on a more competitive basis.
