Weavers Turn Out in General Offensive

Pyongyang, January 8 (KCNA) -- The girls of the Pyongyang Textile Mill have hit their daily quotas from the beginning of the year in response to the joint New Year editorial, carried by the leading newspapers of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, calling for ensuring that the achievements of the great upsurge are followed by greater ones and this year becomes a prosperous year filled with the people's happiness.

They, called "girls riding on galloping steeds", are striving hard to reach a new goal and a new standard, helping and leading each other forward.

When nimbly moving up and down between weaving machines, they just look like dancers on the stage.

Among them are girls who had fulfilled their plan for two years in the first eight months last year, and young weavers who have joined the multi-spindle and multi-machine tending campaigns, following the examples shown by the elders.

The textile mill, which has produced lots of winners of the Labor Hero title, has made a great contribution to the economic development and the improvement of the people's living.

In recent years it has radically changed its appearance and laid solid foundations to sharply boost production by updating all the production processes to meet the requirements of the IT age in the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance.

It is the weaving girls' firm determination to stand in the van of this year's general offensive for improving the people's living standard considerably.
