Relying on Our Own Efforts and Adopting Indigenous Methods to Develop"Small-Scale Fiber Plants"

Kiangsu Province has been moving to build a synthetic fiber industry for a good number of years. Prior to the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, however, there were ups and downs, and, owing to serious interference by the renegade, hidden traitor, and scab Liu Shao-ch'i's counterrevolutionary revisionist line, the results were not outstanding. Motivated by the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, the broad masses of workers of Kiangsu Province, within their red hearts the will to win glory for the great leader, Chairman Mao, and for the great socialist motherland, paved the way with revolutionary great criticism, relied on their own efforts, and got things going with indigenous' methods. In the short course of little more than one year, they have completed nine small-scale synthetic fiber plants, and another eight will also be completed for production at the end of this year. Five products â dacron, nylon, vinylon, orlon, and saran â are under production.
