Senator Sam J. Ervin Says
WASHINGTON A lagging
business economy and rising
unemployment rates in this
country have focused atten
tion once more upon our for
eign trade policies and the
special problem relating to
textiles and apparel-produc
ing industries.
The basic problem is that
our textile and apparel pro
ducers are faced with greater
costs than their overseas
competitors who are flooding
our domestic markets with
low-cost fabrics and garments.
The import issue has not
been resolved because a
battle has raged for years in
this country between those
who believe in reasonable
protection for American tex
tiles and those who favor
free trade. Consequently, our
government has been indeci
sive in its efforts to protect
the domestic textile industry 1
and foreign nations have tak
;'jn advantage of this situa- :

North Carolina has an im
mense stake in this problem.
Textile and apparel industries
constitute about 40 per cent
of our industrial force. These
industries have more than
1,700 plants in our state.
They employ more than
333,000 of our citizens with an
annual payroll exceeding $1.5
billion.
Our domestic textile and
apparel products problems
originated shortly after World
War II ended when the Jap
anese greatly increased their
capacity to produce such
goods. The U. S. soon be
came the largest open mar
ket for these products in the
world. Thereafter, many
other nations with an abund
ant cheap labor supply and
governmental assistance rap
idly expanded their exports to
this country of cotton, wool
and synthetic products.
Early in the Kennedy ad- ’
ministration, it became appar
ent that something had to be 1
THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, APRIL t, 1*76
done to remedy this threat to
our domestic textile industry.
On May 2, 1961, President
Kennedy proposed a seven
point textile program. Ne
gotiations between our coun
try and a number of other
nations led to the 1962 Long
Term Cotton Textile Arrange
ment which for a time aided
our domestic textile markets.
As the 1970’s begin, how
ever, it is again apparent
that the volume of foreign
made textiles and apparel,
entering this country is grow
ing so rapidly that much of
the domestic demand for
these goods is being supplied
by imports. This has caused
the Nixon administration to
seek some solution to pre
serve our domestic textile in
dustry.
The administration is pres
ently engaged in negotiations
with the Japanese to work
out a voluntary agreement
regulating imports of apparel
and textile man-made and
woolen fibers. The President
has indicated that he believes
that the flow of textile and
apparel imports constitutes a
special problem for this
country. Thus far these ne
gotiations have accomplished
virtually nothing, because the
Japanese are insisting that
any agreement cover only
certain apparel products and
that damage to our domestic
textile industry be “proved”
by a joint Japanese-American
body. This condition is un
acceptable. Our coun tr y
should determine for itself
whether American jobs are
endangered and whether dam
age is being done to our tex
tile and apparel industries.
Under the circumstances, it
seems to me that the best
means cf achieving a solu
tion to this problem is to use
the Trade Act, HR 14870, as
the vehicle for establishing a
textile apparel orderly mar
keting system. The House
Ways and Means Committee
will be considering this mea
sure soon, and if our nego
tiators have made no further
progress with the Japanese
by early May, I am hopeful
that the committee will re
port out a bill setting import
quotas on textile products.
Dr. Victor Salvin, profes
sor in the School of Home
Economics at the University
of North Carolina at Greens
boro, is conducting a nation
wide survey of the effects of
rlr pollution on textile ma
terials. The study Is financed
by a federal grant.

NO GREATER LOYE
By MARY CAYTON
The blood, the blood, the precious blood
My Saviour shed on Calvary,
The blood that flowed down from that cross
To save a sinner such as me.
The pain, the pain, the awful pain
He bere to set me free,
How can I help but love Him,
He’s done so much for me.
The shame, the shame He had to bear
To save the world from sin;
We surely cannot be ashamed
Os a Saviour such as Him.
The love, the love, no greater love
Could anyone have I know;
He gave His life on Calvary
Because He loved us so.
My sins, my sins, my many sins,
His bicod has washed away, 1 know;
It has the power to cleanse our souls,
And make them white as snow.
The thorns, the thorns, how sharp the thorns,
That pierced His loving brow,
He’ll wear the crown of thorns no more,
He wears one of glory now.
