COTTON TRADE DEALT BLOW BY SILK GOODS Popularity of Gingham On Rapid Wane in United States. By J. C. ROYLE (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—When the tomb of King Tutankabmen was dis- covered, thousands of people in the United States expected disaster to follow its opening. Whatever the cotton textile manufacturers ex- pected then, they are sure disaster has happened now. There is no question that the popularity of ginghams has waned as a result of the Egyptian designs in silks and other printed cloths which seized on the imagination and fancy of the American woman. ‘ew England gingham manufacturers date thelr meager profits from that period Silks, however, both natural h gained steadily manufacturers to be a banner year st and oldest silk America, however, places the popularity of humbler F.

Designs of the printed silks natu- lly were culled from the motifs of Armenia, Bulgaria, China and Japan, but many were the products American artists.

Their Japanese shippers filled up the cases. around their fyories and porcelains with discarded stencil designs which had been utilized in printing silks. These, considered of no value, were secured by American manufactur- ers, who used them to make silks for interior decoration, dresses, ki- monas, pillows, bed quilts and scarfs, “The inspiration recetved 40 years ago from these Japanese stencils did more than anything else to develop decorative silks in this country,” Mr; Budd concluded. The spring of 1925 will be a “red” spring, according to several large manufacturers. They are convinced that the copper red tints will be ex- tremely papular and are utilizing the plaid designs to carry those tints in some instances. ‘The trend is already apparent in women’s wear with russet standing high among the favorites for autumn at present.
