quarterly meeting of the board of d.

question of 21k per cent dividend on the

success of cotton manufacturing in the

while during the past ten years our gross
number of spindles has increased.
Labor Supply Holds Up.
The most remarkable feature. he says.
is that up to the past year the supply of
labor has almost kept pace with the
demand therefor. The shifting of hands

expected to a greater or less extent among
people of an agricultural country, and
is likely in time to more or less correct
itself, still cotton mills cannot be oper-
ated profitably on union help. and should
It became necessary, sharp competition will
not unlikely result for the labor of other
sections.
Mr.. Hester makes the consumption of
American cotton by northern mills Qn

sether with 2,164000 bales by southern
mills, makes an aggregate for the United

north last year. and 1,91s,OO0 for the south,

HADLEY FoR sENAToR.

One of the most interesting bits of gos-
sip brought about by the present stu
alton in reference TO a successor TO
United States Senator D. H. Platt, is
the suggestion that President Arthur
T. HadIey of Yale be chosen. It is ar
gued in support Of the claim that New
Haven should be recognized, not having
had representative in the federal sem
ate since 1915, and one authority says:
There is a growing conviction among
thinking men that the one man at this
juncture to represent the state of Con
necticut in the United States senate is
President Hadley. Mr.. Hadley's pro-
found studies of the financial questions
which are to-day paramount in the
councils of the nation are universally
recognized. while his contributions OF
thought and reasoning are of the high
est value. He has made himself SUI
preme authority in all matter of bank
ing, manufacture and transportation,
He has stored in his wonderful memory
all pertinent facts and decisions, which
his extraordinary intellect enables him
to combine instantly into logical and
forcible argument. Moreover, his im-
perturbable kindness and courtesy make
his eloquence as persuasive as it is con
vincing.
Mr.. Hadley would be an ideal sen
ator."
