But on the ‘finer more expensâ€" ive fabrics, requiring a lot of patient affection in the making, we didn‘t try to competeée much. Now, though, with Europe cut off.we‘re learning just what we can do here. In the twenty to forâ€" ty dollar a yard grades Americanâ€"made brocades are the equivalent of the same price grades that had formerly been made abroad. On practical counts, however, we can‘t go in for the sixty to a hundred «dollarâ€"aâ€"yard goods. ... .the kind of cutâ€"velyets and brocades that use a great many colors and much hand work in the making. But not many fabric houses are worrying too much about that kind of business..... for American taste is democratic and runs towardâ€".simpler things anyway. Incidently "some of America‘s finest weaving is done in Paterson, New Jerâ€" sey, wheredong agoy a colony of French Replacing Imports We have long been successful in makâ€" ing perfectly lovely prirsed fabrics and at inexpensive prices. .. prints that are for all proctical purposes as goad as the more expensive prints from abroad, esâ€" pecially considering the prices. For exâ€" ample, our dollarâ€"aâ€"yard roller prints aren‘t quite as fine as Europe‘s sixâ€" dollarâ€"aâ€"yard hand bloek prints But our twoâ€"dollarâ€"aâ€"yard sereen prints are almost as nice. For a long time now few women have felt that there was four to five dollars a yard difference between our mass production products and Europe‘s handâ€"mades.
