THE STORY OF ARTIFICIAL SILK 
(3) It is at present largely a secret process. 
Its mills are not open to the public. It is not 
favourably inclined towards publicity. 
(4) The manufacturers of Artificial Silk do 
not themselves realize the vast possibilities 
of development. All their mills, so far as I 
have seen, are too small 
By means of this book, I have hopes of 
Creating a keen national interest in this great 
new industry of ours, so that we may retain 
our supremacy. To-day, in the first lap of the 
race, we are far ahead of all our competitors. 
Artificial Silk offers us our greatest oppor- 
tunity at the moment. It can ros is 
prestige and prosperity as a maker o SX Liles. 
It can pay us back ‘what we have 
cotton. 
It can bring in tens of millions a year— 
perhaps hundreds of millions. It can provide 
work for our unemployed workers and our 
Unemployed capital. It can make Britain 
Once more the nation that clothes the world— 
All of which is shown clearly in the following 
Pages.
