COTTON SUBSTITUTES I
i
Central Europe Has Become Accustomed
to Them and Its Hard To
Get 'Em Back to Real Thiny
I .Berlin, June 30.?Necessity forced c
! 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
