Schwarz on the "Technical Evaluation of Textile Finishing Treatments" that is being sponsored jointly through a co-operative research agree— ment between Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the American Association of Textile Chemists and Color— ists. The A. A. T. C. C. is providing the funds so that M. I. T. can assign some of their personnel and equipment to the study of this problem. Wc note an increasing in— terest in the subject from both textile producers and tex— tile consumers. A general idea of the scope of the work and a more specific approach to the question of stiffness in fabrics is discussed here, together with a bibliograhy covering important work by others in this field.—K.
