That is exactly true. I had expected to come to it later. but I will explain it now. This bill applies only to American manufacturers. We cannot legislate for Canadians. we cannot legislate for Mexicans. we cannot legislate for Europeans or Asiatics or Africans or any other peoples. This bill is limited i. its application to the mills in the United States. It provides for a system of labeling. A manufacturer can make cloth out of tags and vats and burry and dead wool and britch wool and stained wool and label it wool. which means virgin wool. He can make other kinds of cloth of a better class of wool. and that is also labeled wool.
