Excerpt from Cotton Spinning, Vol. 1: Including All Processes Up to the End of Carding
The: following pages, which formed originally a series of articles in The Textile Mercury, have been written with the avowed intention of supplying to the students of our technical schools the means of gratifying what is nu doubtedly a growing desire for the acquisition of know ledge on the subject of cotton spinning. Whilst as a nation we are. In a position in many respects to maintain an industrial supremacy, yet it cannot be denied that at present we are passing through a very severe crisis, and unless something is done to keep apace of the enormous strides other countries are taking, and which enable them to compete successfully with our own products, we shall find ourselves lagging behind and losing the advantages we have hitherto possessed.
