The relative effects of four methods of shrink‐resisting men's half‐hose were evaluated in relation to the physical and chemical changes brought about and in relation to shrink‐resistance and serviceability in wear. In each case, treated material was compared with untreated material of the same specification. Considerable differences between the effects of some of the four methods were found, and, in view of the difficulties encountered in works control of some of the processes, simplicity of application appears to be one of the major considerations desirable in works practice.
