PER CENT FOR MEN.
Cotton Manufacturers Offer to
Guarantee DiUidend to Em mpIOyes.

Fall River Mass, June 1S-The Cotton Manufac-
turers' Association. OF Fall River. representing
practically all the cotton mill interests in this city.
has, in letter to the Textile Council made public
to-day, offered to guarantee the mill operatives a
profit sharing dividend of not less than per cent
This offer was made in response TO a request from
the Textile Council that the wage scale paid before
the general reduction of 1912 per in 1904 was
put into effect be restored
The dividend will be based on the margin between
the cost of cotton In the market and the price of
print cloth, as suggested by Ex-Governor W. L.
Douglas in settling the six months strike of two
years ago, and the manufacturers say that If the
employees not satisfied with the proposition the
mill owners willing TO submit the whole matter
again 10 board of arbitration. The Textile Coun-
Gil has ordered the various unions connected with
the organization to hold special meetings Wednes
day night to vote on the proposition.
Under the percentage system the operatives have
received dividends varying from to 10 per cent
week, but there have been weeks in which no dtvi-
dend has been paid and 10 cent has been realized
only twice. The manufacturers contend
that the standard of wages must be based the
margin between the cost of raw cotton and the
selling price Of cloth.
The operatives say that the offer Will probably
be refused. because the request for restoration
of wages was made chiefly account of dissatis-
faction with the sliding scale. on account Of its
being open TO influence by the speculative market
This objection Is is held, is not removed by the
manufacturers proposition.
