International Agreements
Solution On Imports
Sen. Ernest F. Hollings, D.-S.C., says
rising textile imports could be stemmed
through negotiated international agree
ments at the administrative level.
Speaking to the annual meeting of
the American Textile Manufacturers
Institute, Senator Hollings said, “I al
ways believe negotiated agreements at
the administrative level are the best
solution of the textile import problem.”
He pointed out that textile imports
in 1968 exceeded three billion square
yards, and that the level of imports con
tinues to rise each year.
