Mattress project expands cotton bedding in Palo Alto County
Lawrence D Brennan reports on a cotton mattress program in Palo Alto County starting this month. Over six hundred applications certified by Margaret Dunkelberg Pratt and approved by the AAA committee, with an order for thirty thousand pounds of cotton and six thousand yards of ticking to arrive around February one. Families earn a mattress by sewing at local work centers, with minimal costs for thread and needles, as educational and cooperative agencies oversee the effort.
