DEAR Tom: We understand that Senator GEoRGE has invited you and other Congressmen from textile States to a conference at the White House on next Monday on the matter of botton export and textile import policy. This matter is of importance to our New England cotton textile mills which already face severe competition from Japan and other countries. A policy which would grant cheaper cotton to our foreign competitors would greatly aggravate this problem unless coupled with a quota restriction on imports. Enclosed is a brief memorandum of the issue Involved. Your interest and assistance in connection with this problem will be greatly appreciated.
