ioned silk. The other pair was the same grade and weight made from

Nylon. So sheer was the pair of Nylon that the silk hose looked like cotton. In making hosiery the Nylon yarn is knitted and dyed just as is silk, with one exception. Silk stockings are dyed before they are dried smooth wth heat on metal forms. Nylon hose are “boarded” before they are dyed. The result is that Nylon stockings are permanently shaped. They won't bag at the knee, wrinkle or loose their shape by crushing or washing. ; Because Nylon thread is only slightly porous, dirt won't sink into the fibers. Washing becomes a matter of rinsing in lukewarm, partially soapy water. If a pair of silk and a pair of Nylon hose are washed at the same time, the Nylon pair will be’ dry while the silk still is quite damp. After washing, Nylon dries as smooth and unwrinkled as if it had been ironed. Girls who have worn Nylon hose say they “just won't wear out.” Silk hosiery after some wear becomes fuzzy at the heels and toe. Nylon doesn’t. Unlike silk, Nylon is naturally ringless. Because silk is an animal product, the fibers never are of the same diameter. When knitted into hose the different sized silk threads cause “rings” which are objectionable in fine hosiery. Since Nylon is drawn like steel wire, it always is the same diameter. Thus the thickness in all parts of the stockings is uniform. Like silk, Nylon will both snag

factor, Nylon stockings should be less liable to develop runs, Nylon hose are being made in proportional sizes and will be avail-

able in various weights, ranging from light sheer to service weight, in all standard colors and shades. When first worn, Nylon stockings have a different “feel” from that of silk. Girls who have worn them report that after a few days the difference disappears. If the wearer goes back to silk, the difference is noticeable again. : Nylon hosiery will sell for about the same price as comparable highquality silk hosiery. At the Wilmington, Del, stores which have been selling the stockings for about four months, prices range from $1.15 to $1.35. ; Increased production should mean decreased prices. The du Pont $8,000,000 Nylon plant at Seaford, Dela., will be able to make enough Nylon for some 8 per cent of the women’s full-fashioned hose knitted in the United States. ‘Women now buy. 43,000,000 dozen pairs annually. Real Silk officials do not think Nylon will drive silk, cotton and rayon off the market. When the manufacture of rayon in the United States was begun in 1911, some persons predicted ruin for the silk industry. However, in 1938 the United

States consumed nearly twice as much silk as in 1911 and produced at the same time 288,000,000 pounds of rayon. ) For the first year at least, mills won’t make anything but stockings because of the limited yarn supply. Eventually not only will men’s hose, women’s undergarments and dress goods be made but also upholstery material, linings for men’s suits, rugs, draperies and many woven goods. Already Nylon is being used for brush bristles, fishing lines and leaders, bead cord, shoe laces,

electrical insulation, surgical sutures and sewing thread. Thus far Nylon’s possibilities hardly have been tapped.

Census Stand Brings Claim He’s First Senator Urging People to Break Law.

/ : WASHINGTON, March 15 (U.P.). —President Roosevelt through his secretary. today attacked Senator Charles W. Tobey (R., N. H.) as the first U. S. Senator ever openly to advise the American people to violate the law. . Secretary Stephen T. Early, in conveying Mr. Roosevelt's views did not mention Mr. Tobey by name. But the criticism of a “anonymous” Senator who advised citizens not to answer census questions was plainly’ directed at Mr. Tobey, who has led the Senate fight to eliminate from the census questions on personal income. - Mr. Roosevelt previously had denounced the census controversy as as an “obviously political move.”

Hopkins Seeks Compromise

The President’s attack followed action by Secretary off Commerce

the census income information would be kept confidential.” Mr. Hopkins announced that citizens would ke allowed to place their income figure on an unsigned blank for mailing in a sealed envelope direct to the Census Bureau. Mr. Early acted as Mr. Roosevelt's spokesman today when the President canceled his press conference because of a cold. Had the President been able to meet the press, Mr. Early said, he would have said: “For the first time in his knowledge a U. S. Senator has openly advised the American people to violate the law and holds himself out as the one person who will not answer the two income questions when he knows full well that an answer would be unnecessary since the enumerator would know that he earns more than $5000 and that the only answer necessary would be that he earns ‘$5000 plus’ a year.

Claims Need for Statistics

“These questions, indorsed and requested by a ‘wide range of citizens and organizations, would .develop the same basic statistics about low income groups as now is available about higher income groups through the Treasury. “There is a wide need for these statistics to develop information on mass buying power and unemployment.” Objectors in both Houses still were determined to place Congress either on record against the questions or to eliminate the penalties for failure to answer them. Rep. Daniel A, Reed (R. N. Y) summed up the opposition’s views by saying that Mr. Hopkins’ new regulation “doesn’t change the sit-

the law.”
