236. Editorial Note
President Johnson released a statement outlining his administration’s attention to the concerns of the New England textile industry on September 28, 1964. After describing measures taken to protect the cotton and wool textile industries, he said that he shared President Kennedy’s view that imports of wool textiles and apparel “must be kept at reasonable levels.” He concluded by saying, “I can assure you that we shall work hard at this problem. I consider it essential that the wool textile industry be restored to good health.” For text, see Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States: Lyndon B. Johnson, 1963–64, Book II, pages 1143–1144.
