THE NEWS JOURNAL, RAEFORD, N. C THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 1943 FACE SIX Every day that the 12th Air force fought in the last phase of the Tun isian campaign, Gen. Doolittle's air fighters needed as much aviation gasoline as would fill two railroad tank trains of 60 cars each. O A woman clerk at war production drive headquarters has developed u method of processing workers' pro duction suggestions which saves 4. 9!I2 man-hours per year and 264,000 sheets of paper. The amount of aviation gasoline needed to carry 300 Liberator bomb ers from a British base to Berlin and return is equivalent to the amount of general purpose gasoline distributed in the city of Baltimore in 24 hours.

(Special) On the heels of the tribute paid to the war production job of the cotton tex j tile industry by James F. Byrnes, at ' Spartanburg. S. C. in his first address ; as head of the new OlTice of War Mob ii'.ution. came a report today that a broad research program is underway i to avoid a repetition ot the economic j collapse suffered by the South alter I the last war. j A post-war increase in the use of jcott u. through development of moth j ods by which cotton libers can be j grown in "tailor-made" fashion to j meet sixvilic needs, was predicted ' I here by Luther H. Hodges, vice-presi I j dent of Marshall Field & Company in i Farm Security Administration Recognizing that food production now ranks in i rportanee with the pro cUiction of guns, tanks, and planes, small farmers of North Carolina bol stored by Farm Security Administra tion loans and supervision, have con verted their farms to a war basis and have planned to increase their produc tion this year even beyond favorable increases of last year, said William P. Phillips, County FSA Supervisor. A summary of FSA borrowers' farm and home plans for 1943. just releas od here, ndicates that FSA families in this state will increase their milk cows this year by more than 5.900 cows, or n average of slightly more than one ir.ilk animal per three farms. The summary also shows that North Carolina borrowers have planned to increase their laying flocks over last year, by 384,000, or an average of 25 hens per farm. The planned increase in meat and poultry during 1943 aver ages 169 pounds per borrower, or a total increase over last year of 2.640, 276 pounds for all Farm Security fam ilies in the State. Similarly, 99 addi tional quarts of fruits and vegetables will be canned by each family this year, or a total of 1,542.510 more quarts than was canned last year when the average was 380 quarts per fami ly. "The needs of low-income farmers coming on the FSA program are re 1 viewed with each applicant by the FSA county supervisor. Usually such families have surplus family labor. However, in order to materially con tribute to the Food-for-Freedom pro gram they need additional operating funds, farm and home equipment, tech nical advice, and supervision. The first step toward increasing the pro duction the Food-for-Freedom has been achieved when those needs are made available to FSA borrowers com ine on the program. I Although borrowers show the great j est percentage increase in food pro- duction the first year, past FSA rec l ords reveal that families on the pro i gram lor two or more years continue j to increase their production." The statement emphasizes that the tigures summarized show increases over 1942 only. "In 1942. supervised FSA borrowers constituting only 7.6 per cent of all farmers in the United States, produced 36 per cent of the en tire increase in milk production, and accounted for at least one-tenth of the entire increase in the production of beef, dry beans and peanuts for that year," it was pointed out. charge of the manufacturing division. Just as the mid-west corn belt im proved both the quality and yield of corn through breeding of hybred corn, the South is preparing to develop breeding methods by which it will be possible to raise cotton admirably fltt ed for filmy, glamorous evening gowns or as well suited for industrial purpo ses such as belting so tough it has here tofore been made from leather. Hodges, whose company, in addition to the great Chicago store, operates eleven textile mills, based his predic tion on achievements already made and research new going on under the joint direction of the Cotton Textile Institute and the National Cotton Council. "The rise of synthetics has been possible only because they can be tailor-made to meet various needs," he said. "Cotton has definite merits some of which are relatively little known, and researchers are at work to learn them and devise means for fitting the fiber's superior qualities to specific re quire.nents of industry. Cotton is pure, resistant to most destructive in fluences of nature, adaptable to spin ning, and resistant to abrasion. These and other qualities have built its lead ership. It needs further development of its little-known advantages, and this development is under way." Hodges listed five objectives at which current research is aimed: 1. Cotton bleeding to improve the quality of cotton. Some discoveries have already been made in this direc tion, he said. 2. Better handling from the field through the cotton gin. 3. Improvement of manufacturing processes. 4. Economic research, aimed at broadening the markets for cotton pro ducts. This is linked with promotion efforts to assure cotton's full share of the textile dollar. 5. The physics and ccmistry of cot ton. One project seeks to improve the elasticity of cotton to meet known needs of various manufacturing Indus tries. Others seek improvement in crease resistance, Ilex life, resistap ,o abrasion, di alling quality of fab hand or feci, and appearance o tain cloths.
