FIBRE FOR CLOTHES
WOOL AND COTTON SUBSTITUTE. BIG MANUFACTURING COMPANY* By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rec. 8.20 p.m. London, Sept. 9. Staple fibre offers a valuable alternative to wool and cotton and, being cheaper, it will increase British textile manufacturers’ competitive power abroad, says the Daily Telegraph in commenting on the removal of excise duty 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 more cheaply and on a more competitive basis.
