Central Europe to get along without J [ its usual supply of cotton goods for .-o long that the public has become j | accustomed to all sorts of substitutes s ) md the task of getting back the Eu! ropean market for American cotton I is an extremely difficult one while the ( J mark remains at its low and wildly | fluctuating value. i What is true of the textile .markets | ?> Germany is even more true of < j those in Austria and other war-torn j countries which have unfavorable changes. In consequence the buying * I power of central Europe is generally 1 estimated by manufacturers of cot- ^ I ton goods to be only 25 per cent of."* , hat it was in normal pre-war times, i J ' 'Germans have become so accus-j'* | tomed to the use of white paper ta- {T blecloths and napkins that even the 1 best hotels in Berlin no longer feel it * necessary to provide linen or cotton cloths for their tables. Great rolls of i heavy crinkled paper are kept in all (t restaurants and hotels. Waiters cut a tablelengths from these as required.' a The same system is resorted to in private houses. <j Germany has an abundance of pa-! in per and the price is low. Textiles are' o expensive because of the high price p of the imported raw materials. Laun- a dry work is also expensive. Woven DaDer cloth has redaced cotton, ii woolen and silk fabrics almost en- b tirely as upholstering and drapery ifa material in car furnishings. Wher- b ever cloth need not be washed or exposed,^ moisture paper substitutes I are used. Woven paper towels and a tablecloths have been perfected which j a can even be washed two or three g time^. -'s Former Postmaster General Albert i f Sidney Burleson, accompanied by N. Jfi C. Schlemmer of'Austin, Tex., whoj have been here investigating the pos-: f sibilities of marketing American cot-'t ton, have been faced by the forego- g ing discouraging facts. c Thrifty Germans have devised eve- J t ry possible means of avoiding the: h purchase of expensive textiles. In fa-! \ milies which formerly had many s changes of clothing and had the washing done only at long intervals, 3 the clothing supply has of necessity i v been greatly curtailed. Worn articles - \ are^ repaired more carefully than be- j c fore the war. | n Until the value of the mark is sta-i A bilized great improvement cannot be expected, in the cotton consulting P power of Germany, according to Mrj a Burleson. It is the wildly fluctuating] E /alue of the mark in relation to the J a dollar, rather than the low compara-1 e tive value, which creates the great G uncertainty among cotton spinners. _ Under present conditions they can- o not make any estimates on costs h which will hold good over any con- n siaeraDie lengin 01 time. i b Although American cotton is offer-j d ed to German manufacturers for not | si more than half what it actually costs' e to produce the cotton, and in spite is *ks!
