OILS and PREPARATIONS For Dyeing, Finishing Sizing of Cotton Yarns Fabrics, & Knit Goods The New Brunswick Chemical Co. NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J. WE SOLICIT YOUR INQUIRIES "SUPPLY CLOTH BY THE HUNDRED MILLION YARDS!" came the nation's call. Textile mills speeded up production with electric power and quickly delivered the special material required. Airplane and other cloth was invented. It proved of better quality than that imported. Knitting mills, even before January 1st, took care of orders for 80,000,000 pairs of socks, 75,000,000 undergarments, 10,000,000 pairs of gloves, etc. Here was the problem of the textile industry: Every loom, every knitting machine had to be speeded up to maximum production and still excellent quality of product must be maintaincd. Electric power alone proved steady enough to meet these requirements. The steady speed greatly reduced maintenance of textile machinery and partly mitigated the shortage of skilled labor. The critical condition of the textile industry, due to dye shortage, has been gradually relieved by the chemical industry until today even artificial indigo is available. Coal from the mines, oil from wells, alkalis from salt rock, limestone, and by-products from coal, all were acted upon by mechanical power supplied by electric motors in electric lighted plants. And electricity proved to be the most quickly available power. Public service companies were ready to supply current for running motors asoon as they were delivered. Motors were attached to machines and all spare floor space made productive. We of the electrical industry are proud of electricity's part in speeding up the textile industry.
