PARIS NIWS, THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1954 50 Per Cent Hike In Cotton Usage Seen in 25 Years 2 CORPUS CHR1STI, Tex. per cent gain in world consumption of cotton in the next 25 Jyears is likely, tn Industry leader wsaid here today, if present trends Burris C. Jackson, general of the. American Cotton Con- jgress to convention here, told dele- agates intensive program of re" search and promotion must be con- however, if cotton is to claim its -hare of the expanding fiber market. "Our opportunity lies in.

the grams of research and promotion which already haveiproven so re- "markably effective," the Hillsboro, cotton man said. Jackson told his audience that fact cotton has turned back major competitor in the fight "for a period when fibers are some of the problems the in- faces. In apparel and household uses, which account for more than 70 per wcent of cotton's total markets, the natural fiber's per capita consump- jtion is rising, he said. Cotton gained in its share of the Abroad woven goods market in 1953, continued, while its principal He said included nearly all the textile 2 market with the exception of tire wcord, other cordage, knit goods some Jackson, also chairman of the Statewide Cotton Committee of Texas, said quality and promotion are the reasons for cotton's gains. "All of us know that cotton is the most versatile fiber known to man.

We are familiar also with many of the improvements that have been made in recent years with the plant itself and continuing through the laboratory where some astounding achievements place. "Many of you-have bad a-part in this this contribu- toward an improvement in quality which has enabled cotton to gain ground in its fierce Struggle for markets. "As to the second reason behind the competitive strength of cotton is abundant evidence as to why cotton has achieved its unparalleled popularity. We see it in magazines, in the newspapers, radio and television, and in displays at our favorite stores. "Our fiber is riding the crest of a prestige in apparel aqd household items such, as it never enjoyed before.

In this -egard, yqu'll have to pardon me for a personal reference, for I am firmly convinced that this capitalization on cotton's superior qualities- would never have occurred to the extent we now see it, had it not been initiated and prosecuted by an aggressive and organized cotton industry."

Strange, almost unbelievabl was some of the evidence the tornado left. A chicken in the Cooper yard was stripped of its feathers and killed by the force of the twister. Nearly, a rabbit had been virtually skinned. Down at the Coopers' small barn, a white face was killed but her mother was spared. The family dog was also killed.

Lee Brookmole, a neighbor, found Wesley Cooper's watch laying in the field nearby. It was still ticking. So powerful was the tornadic blast that splinters from the house were driven into a power pole nearby. Oddly enough, they were driven in all sides of the pole, even from the direction the tornado came. Verifying neighbors' versions of the twister was the fact that the house, owned by one of the Coopers' sons, was hurled 100 feet back west of its original location.

Not even the blocks were left. None of the house was identifiable. Setting alone and undamaged amid the debris was the old family Mrs. Cooper's husband was not at home. Neighbors said he works at a service station in Arlington.

Also away from home was a ninth member of the family, Wesley, 20. He was in Paris. Lake Creek residents set the time of the tornado at 5:55, when most of them were at supper. Many of them sat out the blow in storm cellars. The Coppers didn't have one.
