BUSINESS MEN SUBSCRIBE $4,000
Toward $4,000 Required to Erect Yarn
Mill For Connecticut Mills Company
Voluntary Action to Keep New
Unit Here,

Responding to hurry call for ac-
ton that may mean big business for
Danielson, small group of local bus
mess men have subscribed $4,000 to-
ward the cost of constructing a yarn
mill for the Connecticut Mills company
at Industrial place. The mill is. to
cost $4,000, if it is erected, and lead
ers of the movement were optimistic
Tuesday of getting the sum without
any great difficulty.
The plan of action was formulated
with emergency speed, Immediately II
became known that the manufacturing
company has in mind the acquiring OF
yarn mill elsewhere. Since locat-
ing here the company has always ship
ped in its yarns, but has decided now
to produce on its own account. This
fact becoming known to local business
men, a proposition was Immediately
made to the mill company to locate its
plant here. Offer of q mill already
constructed and Immediately available,
and at low cost, however, has the
mains to be seen whether the local Of
fer will be regarded favorably at a
meeting of the mill directors, sched-
uled to be held here today. 1t is
known that some of the board favor
accepting the Danielson offer on the
theory Of advantage in having both
units of the plant together.
If such a mill as it is proposed to
erect for the company is put up, its
equipment will cost the mill company
in excess of 100000, it is stated, and
will give employment to approximately
800 hands over the number now en-
ployed and will eventually boost the
payroll from $12, 900 to $4,000 a week
An hours talk with a representative
of the mill company resulted in plan
to form a building constructing COM
pany among DanielSon people. Not
more than score of men who were
at the conference Immediately pledged
themselves for subscriptions totalling
$4,000. This spirit of cooperation has
been finely received by the mill COM
pany and if the directors show favor
to the plan, the other $4,000 will be
forthcoming. G. A. Tillinghast who
has been instrumental in getting action
by Danielson men, says he hasn't any
doubt but what the entire $3.50 will
be promptly subscribed if the mill
company agrees to accept the local
proposal.
Such mill as it is proposed to erect
here would be about 275 feet in length,
120 to $50, in width and three stories
in height
The Connecticut Mills company is
a great big asset to Danielson as it
is today; with its plant expanded it
would be a real wonder worker as a
business producer in a town of this
size.
The plax under which the mill would
be put up would bring back the To-
cal investors their money in total in
10 years, with interest at per cent

earnestly he is striving to serve the
people in Washington and note from
conversation with his political friends
that he will not be able to come back
and take part in the campaign this
summer. also notice that the work
| OF the military committee, of which
the congressman Is a member, has
been completed. | regret that Mr.
Nichols will not take part in the cam

| is slight misunderstanding as to the
congrcssman's present brand Of poll
tics. No one seems to know whether
he should be classcd now among the
faithful" who in the days of old
stood by their friends, or whether he
| Is running as he did last summer on
| a perfectly harmless non partisan
ticket. This is unfortunate. If he has
forsaken the cause" the people are
entitled to know It.
| For this reason | am asking the
congressman, through you, If he will
not arrange meeting next week in
Greenville where | may meet him for
a public discussion Of the issues in
volved in the congressional campaign.
This VIII allow him to continue his
work In Washington and the people
Interest will not suffer
