. 5. Textile Industry Ends
Year 1958 In Optimistic Mood
| CHARLOTTE, N. C. — The
U S. textile industry ends 1958
lin a mood of optimism that con=-
[trasts sharply with the gloomy
?fmova.-‘ts expressed at the be
ginning of the year, Halbert M,
| Jones, president of the Ameri
can Cotton Manufacturers In
|stitute, declared today.
| The Laurinburg, N. C., tex
tile manufacturer said, “In the
last quarter of this year we
have seen several things that
have put most of us in a more
optimistic frame ol mind."”
| First and foremost, he said,
|was the apparent change in
sovernment attitude toward the
lindustry and its problems, Jones
| added:
| “The hearings by the Senate
| subcommittee investigating the
| problems of the textile indus
try have piled up a monumental
amount of information on which
Congress and the executive a-.
gencies can draw to develop and
[ administer legislation helpful‘
[to this industry. |
“The chairman of the sub
' committee, Senator Pastore
| (D-R.D), has said that the inves
itigation has shown that the
‘u‘xtile industry in America
needs special consideration be
’cause it has been hurt. I
| Then, Mr. Jones said, an of
lfmal of the Department of
'Commerce said while testifying
before the subcommittee that
the federal two-price cotton
‘system was unfair. This system

The air force’s talking satel
lite has proved that the United‘
States can match — and even
excel — Russia in throwing its
weight around.
According to the research de
partment of The World Book
Encyclopedia, the Atlas has
boosted the total weight of
American satellites launched to
more than 8,900 pounds — more
than twice the weight of Rus
sia's three Sputniks put to
gether,
The four-ton Atlas, which
blasted off from Cape Canaver=
al on Dec. 18, is a tar cry from
America’s first satellites, which
Soviet Premier Nikita S.
Khrushchev dubbed ‘“oranges.”
The army’s Explorer I, which
was launched last January,
weighted 30.8 pounds. The tiny
Vanguard I, which followed in
March, weighed a mere 3-1/4
pounds.
The United States now has

‘under the support program, al
'a price 20 per cent below the
leost to American textile mak
lers
! There were other bright spots
on the textile horizon, Mr.
Jones said. He listed these areas
as offering encouragement 1o
‘textile men: ,
The textile markets Improv:
ed considerably over the last
ltwo months,
| Textile securities were rec
ommended by many market an
alysts.
Textile manufacturers were
showing a determination to pro
'duce and merchandise more ef
fectively.
' The nation's economic health
'continued to improve.
| “That last point,”” Mr. Jones
'said, “may be one of the most
important because the textile
industry was beginning to come
out of its own private recession
'when the national economy
slipped into one of its own in
1957, Textiles followed the na
luonax downward trend in 1958.
. “Our optimism,” Mr. Jones
said, ‘is ‘tempered by the econ
tinuing threat of increasing tex
tile imports from low-wage
countries, but if these can be
effectively controlled, and if a
competitive one-price cotton
policy is adopted by govern
ment, the textile future is
bright.”
‘Vanguard 1. Explorer II never
orbited, and Explorer 111 burn
ed up after three months.
| Russia has only Sputnik 111,
‘which tips the scales at a little
less than 1-1/2 tons, or 2,925
pounds.
| The Atlas is the longest as
‘well as the fattest baby moon
of the space age. It is 85 feet
long, compared with Sputnik
\III‘s 11-3/4 feet.
Broilers, Potatoes
Plentiful Foods
If one of your new year’s res
olutions is to be more thrifty
with your food dollar, consum
er information specialists at the
Agricultural Extension Service,
University of Georgia College
of Agriculture, have a sugges
tion that will help you.
Watch for and buy foods that
are in plentiful supply.
During January two popular
and economical foods that will
be plentiful in Georgia and the
Southeast are broilers and fry
ers and potatoes.
H. M. Morris, Extension con
sumer information specialist,
said the number of broilers and
fryers coming to market in
January very likely will be 12
to 15 percent greater than last
January. Broiler cold-storage
holdings on November 1 stood
lat 28 million pounds — highest
since 1945.
The fall potato crop, estimat
ed at 179 million hundred
weight, is the largest since 1948,
and 18 percent larger than av
erage.
Other foods which Morris
said are on the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture’s January
plentiful list for the Southeast
include: apples, canned and
frozen peas, dates, walnuts,
vegetable fats and oils, and dry
edible beans.
Apples continue in good sup
ply because of the nearly 125
million-bushel crop this year.
California dates from a large
crop also are moving to market
in good volume.
Supplies of canned peas are
about the same as last year’s
large supply and stocks of froz
en peas in early November a
mounted to 246 million pounds.
Fats and oil products, such as
cooking oils and salad dress
ings, continue in liberal supply.
Dry beans that are plentiful in
the Southeast include black
eyes, pintos, large and small
lima, Great Northern, and navy
beans.

the American Municipal Asso
ciation at its recent convention
is Boston. George served as a
member of the resolutions com
mittee at the convention,
More than 65 per cent of the
people of the United States now
live in cities or towns, much of
our population lives outside but
enrns a living within cities,
George said,
In Georgia, 50 per cent of the
people now live in town, and
another 30 per cent earns a liv
ing in town, he said.
“This urban ‘explosion’.
which hes brousht an econom'c
industrial revolution, makes it
necessary that cities be kept in
a heslthy and prozicirive posi
tion,” Geoorge said. “\We can't
build progress on decadence.
City governments must receive
equitable consideration, along
with the county, state, and fed
eral governments.”
The national association pro
posés that all federal programs
directly affecting municipalities
be coordinated and directed by
one department of the federal
government,
This would include housing
and slum clearance, community
facilities such as utilities, water
resources programs such &g
