Stevens Boasts Largest Machine For Shrinking Cotton Fabrics degree from Duke University. 'Equality' Goal Of Negro Group St. Louis, June 22—The National New York, June 22.—J. P. Ste- Association for the Advancement of vens and Co., which is entering the fitted sheet field, has installed the world’s largest machine for shrink ing cotton fabrics in its Clemson, S. C., plant the big textile com pany announced today. The 10-f6ot-wide machine is large enough to shrink fabrics up to widths of 90 inches as compared to the maximum practical width of 80 inches attainable with ear lier type of compressive shrink ing machines, it was said. Shrunk fabrics are essential to 1 production of fitted sheets with boxed corners because the sheets must continue to fit the mattress snugly throughout their service life. Stevens present plans fall for production of bottom fitted sheets in Type 128 muslin under the com pany’s ‘Hope” and “M o h a w k” brands and of Type 180 percales under its “Mohawk,” “Utica,” and “St. Regis” labels. The new machine is licensed un der Cluett, Peabody patents. Backwoods Cousins Of Potato May Help Breed Better Spud Durham, N.

Correll, Colored People has abandoned its “separate but equal” theory in favor of a goal of total integration in its fight to abolish racial discrimina tion. Walter White of New York, ex ecutive secretary of the NAACP, irade the statement here today at a press conference preceding the i organization’s annual convention which opens tomorrow. White said: “The myth of White supremacy is crumbling but has not been crushed.” Unless America can snow its good faith toward the Negro, White said, the Country stands to lose suport from the dark-skinned countries of the woyld. “These peojle are skep tical because of what they have heard about the treatment of Ne groes.” White said there are 2,000 Ne groes enrolled i* universities in nine Southern states and litigation over admission of Negroes pend ing in five other states. He said the association will try to increase materially the number of Negro voters in the 17 Northern and Bor- cjgj* states About 80 delegates are expected to attend the six-day convention.

Well, as you know, trucks are built and bought for just one reason—to do a job. So isn’t it logical then that since Chevrolet trucks outsell all others, they must do a better job at lower cost?'
