Stringent economies are already being enforced by a reduction in allocations of new hessian.
Brand new office partitions are being put in, all covered in beautiful and costly hessian.
The economy is agrarian—mainly the production of rubber, copra, hessian and tea—and the emphasis all the time is on fresh water, not high technology.
Are we now entitled to go into the whole question of the import and shortage of hessian?
There is a world shortage of all textile materials and there are, for practical purposes, no substitutes in plentiful supply for wool, cotton or hessian.
The supply position does not yet, however, allow for any increase in allocations of hessian for furniture.
After that, why trouble to cover the springs with hessian, because the furniture will not last anyway?
We can view the hessian of the energy functional also as a self-adjoint endomorphism.
