Shifting Curtains To Prolong Life
Curtains hung in bright sun fade and weaken quickly. Move curtains between sunny and shady windows and reverse sheets from head to foot when washed. Mend snags promptly and repair worn areas by stitching edges and hemming to extend fabric life.
Cloth distribution to extend to small towns and rural areas
The supply of yard goods for home sewing will be increased and 150 million yards of cotton fabrics including pongee voile sheeting and gingham will be distributed with preference to merchants in small towns and rural areas. The plan follows an earlier order aimed at correcting unequal distribution of piece goods.
