TTLE HOPE FOR ashincton. May 2G. President I, .D Tyson of Knoxville, Tenn., told the American Cotton Manufacturers Association convention here today that the textile industry of the south could never attain prosperity or in dependence until the majority of the mills decided to diversify and finish their products so that they could ro direct to the consumer with them. "It is an economic crime," Presi dent Tyson said, "for the south to continue to produce goods and s'end r i , da-, obtained -hp dozen mem nunoreds and even mousanas i ')! tarin ot .lames i,ou- oi nines eisewnere 10 oe auvaoceu iu of Pi tioit.

"What we need in the South," he continued, "is more finished fabrics readv for the trade: more bleacher ies, more dyeing establishments anl more converters; more printing plants and mercerizing plants; more knit goods establishments, hosiery mills and the like." The Southern textile industry, Mr Tvson declared, had developed from 1.000,000 spindles in 1898 to 16,000. 000 spindles in 1022, an advance of ,'i00 per cent, as compared with a 50 per cent advance over the same per iod in New England. "Our selling methods must be re vised,"? he said, .'either by selling direct or by closer cooperation with our selling agents, who should main tain Southern and W.estcrn branches distribution." 1 nd Southern and Western points of Under pres'ent conditions, he added, Southern mills not only feel directly their periods of depression but those of other sections. No amount of individual or special effort would avail to rise above such periods, he continued, so long as the outlet for .iith.rn winds was blocked by the closing of the channels of trade through Northern and Eastern man ufacturers', finishers and distributors.

Eight i'"l and two seriously three purling houses l the Pruscilla Powde iiiiles from here, blew Belfast, May 26. Millions of Ger man children who sufff rpfl from hunger in the war time and after ward;; probably will remember the manna-like meals provided for them ts.v the American Quakers lone- after thev have fonrotten the nAmo of the Ac.ierican Friends Service Commitfeo wbich will withdraw from Germany at the end of July after iwo and one-nalt years of relief work here. The Budget Committee of the Rei chstag re rently approved an appro priation of 50,000,000 marks for the purchase of food stuffs to continue the child-feeding program when the American srpplies have been exact ed. These srpplies are now expected to last, untiF. September 30. Dr. Bost, chairman of! ,the German Central Committee for Foreign Relief and director of the Food Ministry, said the government had granted the full amount he requested for this purpose but the Quaker feeding so strongly gripped the popular mind that some members of the party of the Left demanded a great increase in the fed oral grant for that purposce- The r-nends organization has been established in 1640 towns which con tain about one-half of the entire pop uation of Germany. Its" supplies were stored in more than 300 warehouses and its food was prepared in more than 250 kitchens and served from 8,360 feeding places, mostly schools and child-welfare institutions. The money value of the American ood provided has been estimated at $8,500,000. "This amount is' less than one-fourth the cost of a first-class battle s'hip said Francis R. Bacon of Philadelphia, chairman of the Freinds Committee. Ife added that from the beginning the Quakers had the full support of the German government which, since October 1920, furnished all the flour and sugar used in the ration given to the children. In addition, the Ger man people supplied all the costs of insurance and distribution of the food while the Society of Friends paid the overhead expenses'. The German cor tribution is estimated to average rbout two- thirds of the value of the cooked meals. Mr. Bacoit said that the withdrawal of the Friends' Committee from this work was made possible because it appeared that the Germans were now capable and prepared to carry it on themselves. The American feeding reached its height in June ami July last year when more than 1,000,000 children wede receiving an extra meal daily through American bounty.
