THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGT ON, D. C RIDAY, APRIL 30, 1937 WOOL PRODUCTION LINKED T0 ARNS Manufacturer Says Price | Would Drop if War Scare Lessened. By the Associated Press BOSTON, April 30—Two impor- | tant woolen manufacturing officials said today that “a considerable part of the wool supply of the world is consigned to armament purposes.” The two officials, who declined to permit the use of their names, by their account placed textiles alongside mu- hitions in Europe’s armament race. One of them, an important manu- | facturer, said he had observed Euro- | pean mills busily turning out fabrics for troops and civilians. An official of the National Associa- tion of Wool Manufacturers declared | };ll;)il;‘— ‘_‘Strike” Over Cold Beans Brought by Daylight Savings| By the Associated Press. CONNERSVILLE, Ind., April 30.— Cold beans and rebellious pupils caused the Connersville Education Board to order daylight savings time vesterday for grade and high schools. For two successive days prior to the order approximately 75 pupils had dropped their books and walked out of class rooms an hour early at noon, leaving written on bulletin boards in large printing, “We don't like cold beans.” The story back of the cold beans, the walkouts and the order involved a conflict in daylight savings and Cen- tral standard times. When daylight savings time went into effect a few days ago industrial plants here moved their clocks up an hour. School authorities, however, held to Central standard time. Confusion was rampant, Every one was mixed up. Housewives protested vigorously and issued ultimatums that they would not cook two lunches & large part of wool “already is in process of manufacture into uniforms. | Some of it has not yet reached that | ».stage. If conditions in the world be- come quieter this wool may be thrown back on the market for lay purposes, With a resultant drop in prices.” The price of wooi today, highest since 1928. can be traced directly, this same official said, to the busy looms of Europe. The International Labor Office at Geneva reported to a textile confer- ence in Washington this month. that, | in Germany and Italy “'wool manufac- | turing is now facing the same scarcity of raw materials as cotton manufac- | turing. * * * Programs stimulating | home production of wool substitutes | nd maximum recovery of used wools | hind waste, have been promoted ener- | getically in both cases.” | Mussolini, one official reported, had | decreed that woolen exports must not. exceed imports, with the result that at east 20 per cent of all woolen goods was adulterated with a wool substitute, | Chief substitute for wool today is | rayon. A report to the National Asso- | ciation of Wool Manufacturers dis- closed. Italy has discovered another substitute known as “casein,” ex- tracted from skimmed milk. 43,000 Bond Set False Pretenses.
