I submit that if the recommendations presented here yesterday by the Senator from Rhode Island are not implemented very shortly. we shall find the rate of textile imports accelerating to a point where It will choke those remaining textile plants which have managed thus far to survive.

In my opinion. a flexible quota system is the best method of allowing imports to expand in proportion to the natural growth of the domestic market without driving our domestic textile industry into bankruptcy. This is a problem. Mr.
