(By Associated Press)
PARIS, Jan., 24.—It is the opinion
of French experts that the handmade
laces, of France cannot compete with
lace woven by loom, particularly as
the latter is often sold upon repre
sentation that it is hand-made.
Consequently, a bill has been intro
duced by the chamber of deputies
providing that all mechanically-made
lace bear a tag clearly setting forth
that it not hand-made.
