GIVES WOMEN CREDIT FOB LIVING STANDARDS "There’s a new look in living today which can best be described as the new American look. It's a marriage of individual needs and modern technology,” Miss Beth Peter s6 1, home economist for the public relations department of the DuPont company, said in a talk Saturday at the Home Demonstration achievement day held at the Decatur Youth and Community Center. Speaking on "The New American Look in Living,” she gave women much of the credit for the development of the high standard of living. “Because they wanted better things for modern living, Industrial was sptlrred to produce them,” she said. "Their decisions to buy or not to buy register their preferences .and suggestions for improvement," Miss Peterson said. "Their decisions are a powerful force in motivating Industry to produce new and be ter things. “Research has discovered new basic materials, which make it possible to create products that can meet today’s specific needs.” As an example of large-scale research being carried on in industry today. Miss Peterson mentioned that Du Pont spent more than $75,000,000 in the past year on research. "As homemakers, business women, and leaders in community and national affairs, women have spurred industry to produce goods and services to meet the demands of their more active life,” she said. She cited, as examples, the development of prepared foods, easy-to-care for clothing and home furnishings. "Only b’g businesses can create and produce the basic materials which require tremendous investment and large-scale production, while smaller businesses are best equipped to convert those materials into finished products and distribute them." She .cited, as an example, the latest development in easy-to-care-for clothing, automatic wash and wear. This development was initiated through a research lead developed by the DuPont company. This 'showed that because of the properties of "Dacron” polyester fiber, “Orlon” acrylic fiber, and nylon, tumble drying at a temperature around 140 to 160°F. removes wrinkles due to wearing and washing. “With this knowledge,” she said, ‘ the DuPont company and the textile industry together developed suitable fabrics and tailoring that would withstand the rigorous action of full cycle automatic washing and tumble drying.” ; “Nylon stockings can be sold at a price you can afford to pay because of the progress which has been made in production techniques today,” Miss Peterson said. “Processes in manufacturing have been improved to a degree where DuPont can sell nylon at $2 a pound instead of the $6 it would cost if produced by older methods. “Th’ homemaker’s time has been released from the drudgery of the past to be done by a team of highly skilled specialists—large and small business,” she said. “They perform the tasks that once were routine with grandmother ,and bring to the shelves of today’s market most everything needed in the home.” She cited, as an example, an innovation by the food packaging industry, “boil-in-the-bag” type of packaging made possible by the development of “Mylar” polyester film by the DuPont company. Precooked food is frozen in a sealed bag of "Mylar.” The homemaker places the bag in boiling water. In a f » minutes, the food is ready to serve. z There are no pots and pans to wash and food nutrients are fully conserved. “We are able to have these 'things which give us the best living in the world today because we have been free to use our imagin'ation and develop the industry to create them,” she said. Approximately 165 attended the program and tea following. The Adams County Home Demonstration Chorus, will meet at the Farm Bureau Building in Monroe, Monday evening at 7:30 o’clock. Mfl'vin Myers of Purdue University will meet with the members.
