USED sewing machines bring CASH ILAUNDRYMEN TRY T0 ALTER GBOBS Smaller Dresses, Alter Wash- ing, Gause Embarrassment New York, Sept. 14 UP—Laundry- men have decided that while shrink- ing may be pardonable in a violet, it should have no place in the make -up of modern wearing apparel. Consequently they have gone into contcrence with textile manufactur- | crs in an efforts to reach some basi: of agreement on the proper time for the shrinking process to take place. Some textile men say a profit ac- crues through the yardage &uin when goods are stretched in finish- ing. But the lausdrymen point out that when goods are over-stretched —and the point’ where legitimate stretching ends and excess begins apparently supplies ample ground tor controversy—they shrink wheu laundered, to the dismay of laun- drymen and the dedpair of wearers. Laundrymen have suggested they will attempt to enlighten the public as to their claims that stretching is & by-product of greed. hoping that the more representative textile | interest will make somewhat simi- lar efforts to inform the public that questionable goods are purchased | only at a risk. The situation is rendered even more desperate by the fact that the modern mode of wearing little clothing enhances the difficulties at- tendapt upon shrinking during laundering. Yardage in dress partic- ularly in small and even moderate shrinkage is said to cause some em- barrassment. When it comes to | shirts there is still more grouble, for men, apparently paying little heed to shrinkage, wear the shirts re- garless of the decreased size.
