WASHINGTON j i
IM
TIME IS RUNNING out for a
decision as to whether the Fed
eral Government will act to pro
tect the American Textile Indus
try from liquidation at the hands
of unfair foreign competition.
The issue was sidestepped five
years ago with the negotiation
of an executive
agreement un
der w’hich Ja
pan imposed
voluntary ex
port quotas on
its textile
manufactures
who, at that
time, were
flooding the American market
with their cheap-labor goods. That
agreement expires at the end of
this year and the Japanese Cot
ton Textile Exporters Association
has petitioned the Japanese Gov
ernment for a 20 to 30 per cent
increase in present export quotas.
The situation is made more criti
cal by swelling exports by Hong
Kong, India, Korea, Pakistan,
Spain, Portugal, France, West
Germany and other emerging tex
tile countries which are not sub
ject to even voluntary restrictions.
♦ ♦ ♦
AMERICA’S POSITION as a
net exporter of textiles has been
reversed since 1958. Last year
imports of foreign-made textile
products into the United States
exceeded this country’s exports
of similar goods by 39 per cent.
Since 1946 more than 700 Amer- ■
ican textile mills have closed and .
more than 400,000 textile jobs
have been eliminated, most of :
them as the direct result of the 1
loss of markets at home and
abroad to foreign goods manu
factured under conditions w r hich
would be illegal in this country.
Those figures do not take into

Mrs. Loy G. Veal
."Bear ye one anoihers burdens"
(Gal. 6:2)
If I have flagged in courage and
devotion,
, And sunk below life’s besd,
■ I would not ask for peace, O
righteous Father,
But rather, deep unrest.
[
If I have turned aside from
others’ troubles,
i Deaf to their wants and woes,
. How can I pray, O God of all
I compassion,
That thou give me repose?
■ Help me, iwth love andl faithful

Thy way to geek and find;
And then thy peace, which pass

Shall keep my heart and

ON A HILL
' “I need to be alone with God,” I
said,
I And fled the nervous clash of
i will on will,
The tangled, taut emotions. But it
seemed

' I lent hill:

account the production cuts which
have put many of the remaining
915,000 textile workers on short
time.
The American Textile Industry
not only has the ages, wages and
hours of its employees fixed by
law but also must pay parity
prices established by the Govern
ment for the cotton it uses. Tex
tile mills in foreign countries pay
wage scales which in some cases
are only one-tenth of those in the
United States and at the same
time can buy subsidized American
cotton eight and one-half cents a
pound cheaper than it can be
bought in this country.

THE APPOINTMENT by Pres
ident Kennedy of a Cabinet-level
committee to study the textile
problem is an encouraging recog
nition of its gravity by the Chief
Executive. It is to be hoped that
the Secretaries of Commerce,
Labor, Agriculture and Treasury
and the Under Secretary of State
will take a realistic view of the
urgent necessity for formulating
a solution which will not put for
eign interests ahead of the wel
fare of American workers.
To those of us who already have
given long study to the problem
it is obvious that a solution which
involves less than a system of
mandatory quotas to limit the
impact of cheap imports from all
textile countries and a new farm
plan which will permit American
textile mills to buy cotton at the
same price as their foreign com
petitors will not do the job which
must be done if the American
Textile Industry is to survive.

To whose necessity you gave no
