Cut Off Escape Route

The surprise blow appeared to have doomed the remnants of the Japanese 18th division at Kamaing. cutting off their last practicable route of escape or reinforcement. | Gen. Stilwell's main Chinese forces in the Mogaung valley north of Kamaing were reported driving down in three columns to within sbout nine miles of the base and a direct assault on the Japanese gar-| rison appeared imminent. | Meanwhile, it was announced of-/ ficially that numerically-superior Japanese forces moving northward toward Kamaing had smashed a British Chindit road block on the; main railway line south of Mogaung

war future as may be revealed at du Pont headquarters, finds himself wanting to look first at the nylons and is amazed by what he can be permitted to see. «Nylon hosiery, although its first public appearance was as recent as late 1939, is really “old stuff” by comparison, for instance, with the array of nylon fabrics which’ textile companies were developing before that line of activity had to undergo a complete wartime change.

Going Into Parachutes

This man-made fiber, stronger, | tougher, more elastic than any comparable product of nature, is now going into parachute cloth, for which it is better than silk. And into cords for huge bomber tires, tow ropes for gliders, battle clothing for the army, paint brushes for the navy, and hundreds of other military articles, many of which can't even be mentioned yet. }

But work on nvlon' fabrics for civilian use halted right after Pearl Harbor, and the samples on display here all of them pre-war, only suggest what's likely to come when it can be resumed. However, these samples are something! Here, for example, ic blue transparent velvet.

Pleats That Stay Here's a bolt of filmy, frothy stuff called organza, a vard of it weighing only part of an ounce. Try to tear it. you'll need strength. Here's an evening dress with an accordion-pleated skirt, Those pleats are in to stay. Here's a

pair of handsome lace curtains. Wash them and hang them up. They don't have to be stretched | on a frame while they dry. For it's one of nylon's unique qualities that fabrics made of it can be given .a “permanent set,” to which they'll return after being

rumpled or soaked. They don't hold creases, except the built-in kind. Pure nylon absorbs very little water, is non-inflammable and is no temptation to moths. i These are among the reasons | why, before the war, nylons were under test in non-crushable velvets, plushes and mohairs; in draperies and upholsterings, in taffetas, damasks and chiffons; in broadcloth and sports-weave shirtings; in raincoats, shower curtains and slip covers; and in furlike materials that, to a masculine eye, look just like Persian lamb or caracul and have the virtue— from a husband's viewpoint, at least—of costing a mere fraction as much. - Tailor-Made Future

Furthermore,

apparently you | need only imagine some new, | practical use for nylon, whereupon {

du Pont development men (when they've completed the war jobs | now absorbing their time) will | undertake to “tailor-make” the adaptable synthetic for that use. Perhaps post-war suits for men | can be given permanent creases— | but only where creases are sup- | posed to be—and will need no pressing. Maybe, a few years hence, a traveler can make one nylon shirt do for a trip of several weeks, washing it in hotel bedrooms at night and hanging it up | to become as fresh as new by i morning. | And it's certain that raincoats,

| weighing three or four ounces, |

can folded to the bulk of a couple of handkerchiefs and carried in | coat pockets. ] |

Three Plants for Yarn

| Oh, yes; about nylon stockings. | Word here is that they'll be back on the market two months. or, so after the government releases nylon, from war duty. Changing | spinnerets, to make nylong yarn instead of what theyre making | now, will take only a few days. After that, yarn can be started to the knitting mills—for du Point does not knit stockings; it sells the yarn to other companies. Eventually, there'll be nylan hosiery to satisfy the greatest de#mand. NEXT: Nylon is a plastic, too,

By advocating a radical and 2 rapid dissolution of many federal agencies to cat Washington bureau personnel deeply, and delegating back to the states more functions than many other governors are willing to see done, particularly as relates immediately to post-war industrial reconversion which he thinks shoyld be handled largely by the states and private industry. Such, essentially, is his program.

Carried Further

His personal vendetta against Governor Dewey first became apparent in his press conference, in his demand that a candidate—meaning Mr. Dewey—should discuss the 1issues, and noticeably so when he angrily barked, “Don’t call me Governor Dewey,” at the slip of tongue by a conference official. It was carried further in the discussion from the floor following the first formal session of the governors. When Governor Griswold of Nebraska, a Republican, demanded that the administration should specify just what part, financially and otherwise, the federal government intended to play in post-war industrial reconversion, Governor Neely of West Virginia, a Democrat, slvly suggested, with a twinkle in his eve, that only two people present could answer that question—Governors Dewey and Bricker—the inference being that one or the other might be in the White House,

Not Embarrassed

Governor Saltonstall of Massachusetts, conference chairman, interjected that he did not want to embarrass anybody, at which Governor Bricker jumped up and said that no governor ‘should be em-| barrassed in discussing such a question and proceeded to propound his thedry that the states, rather than the federal government, should do the job and suggested the conference go on record to that effect, Governor Dewey applauded when the Ohio governor sat down, but
