Worm's Eye View DANCE TOIIIGBT Wood barn Armory Woodry's Orchestra Real Silk Industry Is About to Stage a Comeback, Which Women to Welcome By Msxlne Baren Statesman Woman's Editor It will be real news for men and women that there is some thing being done about the development of the silk industry in America. During the war, rayons, celonese and other synthetic silks were accepted as a matter of course, and usually with good grace, but now that Japanese industry is much will be used but they are on the downswing. Auxiliary Plans For Dinner Meadowlark auxiliary to post 6102, Veterans of Foreign Wars, met Thursday afternoon at the home of the president, Mrs. W. E. Wieprecht. A dessert luncheon was served after which members sewed for their coming bazaar and held their regular business meeting. . Plans were made for a dinner in February. Proceeds will go to the Oregon Cottage fund to build a house for orphans of veterans at the national children's home in Eaton Rapids, Mich. Mrs. Gor don Bressler and Mrs. Eugene Poblman are in charge of arrange ments. Next meeting will be held on January 28 at the VFW hall. Miss Carolyn Brady wtll be among the guests at the Phi Gam ma Delta formal dance on the Oregon State college campus tonight. again in the running, many are expressing desire for silk garments again. The government, interested in helping rebuild Japan's economy, is undertaking to recreate an American silk industry and sup ply it with raw silk from Japan at a price which will make possi ble the sale of material at a rea sonable cost. Raw silk at the rate of 10,000 bales per month is scheduled for production this year, against that of 60,000 bales monthly before the war. But it is a beginning. Among the difficulties offered is the fact that there are only one-fifth the number of looms in operation now as before, because so many converted to synthetics during the war. To reconvert to silk it is necessary, say spokes men for the industry, to retain a corps of skilled workers. Syn thetics can be woven automatically and require less skill from work ers. In 1937. 430 factories manu facturing silk fabrics employed 46,700 persons. Some silks are available at the better local yardgoods counters but the price is yet a bit too high to make them available to the av erage buyer. However the newer price is far below the very high prices of pure silks of a few years ago, when stores were forced to cut the price well below cost to even rid themselves of their stocks. Admittedly, he prices will have to come yet lower before K Anniversary At Home Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Loyal V. Shafer will be at home Sunday afternoon at their North 21st street residence in celebration of their silver wed ding anniversary.
