HE spirit of improvement now pervading the textile industry should render it a particulariy attractive field for graduates of technical institutions. The industry is in an era of change. Old notions are giving away to new ideas. Constructive cooperation is succeeding stagnant indi- vidualism. Tolerance is effacing suspicion. Scientific study is overruling superstition and guesswork.; Re« ward for achievement is demoting nepotism. The urge toward quantity output is being replaced by an ambition for quality. The industry is making great strides toward self- improvement. It has recently moved toward regu- lation of hours and toward the socially commendable policy of eliminating the night employment of women and children. It has greatly improved its mechanical processes and the character of its product. It has revived and stimulated the public appreciation of cotton in its myriad manufactured forms by means of a nation-wide display of its wares. The pew- comer to the industry will have ample opportunity for the application of his knowledge and talents and will find bis occupation absorbing and inspicMlg- ' w— a« r , George A. Sloan, President, Cotton-Textile Institute.

' HE cotton textile industry is still in the kindergjitten stage. It is ready for tre- mendous development and progress. That development and progress will come when the manu- facturers cooperate in a campaign that will demon- strate the merits and the beauties of cottoji products as well as their economies. Cotton has been with us for so many centuries that there is a disposition to believe that its possi- bilities have been exhausted. That is pure fallacy and costly. If cotton had been discovered only twenty-five .years ago it is likely that its wonderful possibilities would today be receiving more consider- ation, and that it would be used today in numerous ways that are yet to be developed. Cotton products must be styled to. meet and antici- pate modern demands. Their adaptability to wider usejs and treatment must be proved. There must be more initiative and research upon the part of the individual manufacturef, as well as cooperative re- search and advertisiiig by groups. That would seem to be the first step in a comprehensive campaign to make America not merely ' cotton conscious but cotton quality conscious. Cotton is an aristocrat among textiles, and rare opportunities are being neglected to make it more popular and acceptable. The future prosperity of the industry is dependent largely upon the speed with which we accept the economic fact that it ,is the obligation of the entire industry — manufacturer, grower and distributor — to sell cotton to the public in a thorough-going manner. a 1 Cason J. Callaway, President, American Cotton Manufacturers Association.
