White Versus Chinese Labor.

EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN A slight error oc-
ours in your report to-day of last nights
meeting, as to my statement concerning the
discharge of Chinese from my pottery
works at Thirty-fourth and streets. | am
reported as having sixty Chinese in my
employ, and to have said that would dis
charge thirty Immediately and give employ
ment to white laborerS, and that at the end
of thirty days if the whites learned the
business, the other thirty Cinnamon would
be discharged. Now the fact is have had
of late but twelve Chinese in all at my
works, and my proposition was to dis
charge one-half of them on the LIST of JaHu-
airy and the remainder within sixty DAYS,
and employ white labor in their places.
Let me say that the result of your publi-
cation of the above in the RECORD UNION
has led TO making my establishment a
general recruiting rendezvous for white
laborers, forty-nine men having applied
there for employment this morning before
10 o'clock. So do not fear but that | will
be able to find all the help | will need to
take The place of the few Chinese | have on
hand. Il will now propaby put some to
work tomorrow and few more on Mon
dey, discharging Chinese to give them
places, and | presume by the last of the
present month our entire force will consist
of white help. n. CLARK e. Sons
