抗战前南京国民政府反对棉花掺水搀杂的斗争

Nanjing Nationalist Government's Fight Against Water-adding and Adulteration of Cotton before the Anti-Japanese-Aggression War

第二次鸦片战争后逐渐引人注目的棉花掺水搀杂行为在20世纪二、三十年代达到十分猖獗的程度。它严重阻碍了我国棉花的出口和民族纺织业的发展,也在一定程度上使棉种改良的努力付之东流。在社会各界的推动下,南京国民政府建立了专门机构,颁布了一系列的法律、法规,对在棉花中掺水、搀杂的行为进行整治,使其肆意蔓延的势头得到遏制,收到了良好的效果。

The problem of water-adding and adulteration of cotton, which increasingly drew people＇s attention after the Second Opium War, came to a rampant level in the 1920s and 1930s. It seriously hampered the cotton export and the development of national textile industry of our country and, to a certain extent, it made futile the efforts to improve the cotton seeds. Under the promotion of people from all walks of life, Nanjing Nationalist Government founded special institutions and enacted a series of laws and regulations to fight against this phenomenon, which successfully curbed the situation and achieved good results.
