glove making is a new industry in
this country, and that he had a right
to import labor, although no evidence
was found to verify the charge that he
actually did import men under con.

the firm, is the one who has been at
work on the new system, designed to
make employees share in The net pro-
fits of the concern. Probably $50 men
and women are employed at the fac,
tory. The plan contemplates a divi,
sion of rs per cent of the profits among
the employed, of which 5 per cent
goes to the foremen and 20 per cent to
