Bookings for the British Textiles Exhibition, which will be held in London from February 15 to 26, are now nearly com- pleted: over 85 per cent. of the large area set aside for textiles in the new Earls Court section of the British Industries Fair has already been allotted and over 100 firms, including many of the largest textile concerns in Great Britain, are taking part.
