practiced against negroes by railroads
and other common carriers. This dis
elimination is unnecessary and un-
fair. There is an indefensible injus-
tice in charging negroes frst-class
fare and providing them with third
and fourth class accommodations.
This conference believes in law
and order, and asks for negroes only
what the courts above other agencies
should give-impartial justice. If
negroes commit crimes they should
be punished by the courts and not by
mobs. We especially deplore lynch
ings, and we restate what is appar-
emily too little known and seldom re-
garded, that rape is not even the al
legged cause Of 80 per cent. of the
lynchings. We insist that better and
fairer methods must be used for ad-
justng so many of the ordinary diff
ferences arising between man and
man than lynching and the subsequent
terrorizing of a whole people. Moth
ing is doing more to drive the negro
out of the South. Lynching is the
cure for nothing. 1t merely creates
further disregard for law and order.
"This conference believes that the
best methods of meeting the difficult
ties that arise between the races in
any community is to bring together
the leaders of the two races in con-
ference. And We call upon the white
and colored people in every commun-
ity to cooperate and help make the
South what it should and can be
made-the finest example in the world
of people of different races living
together in mutual respect, helpful
cooperation and peace"

TO TIL PUBLIC.

TO THE PUBLIC.
The leadership In the wooden goods trade which
has been attained by the American Woolen Company
has naturally subjected 1t to variety of attacks,
of which, outside Of trade and political rivalry
have been based upon MISUNDERSTANDING
The size Of the operations of the American
Woolen Company-its large capital employed In the
production of seventy varieties of cloth In ten thou
sand varieties OF Styles It's capital investment In
hfty-seven mills and its employment Of more than
10000 mill woskers-places ie In the position Of
something more than private corporation.
It has duties toward the national government, to
whom it has paid than 100000 in taxes in
single year, or more than 1920 of the gross volume
OF its saes The government should have reciprocal
duties in protection of this American industry
1t has duties toward $4,000 people who own its
$4o,o00000 79o preferred shares-the first and only
lien upon investment estimated at above $780,
000o00 These shareholders are not speculators;
they the backbone and sinew of our industrial
life, which must be based upon the savings of the
people. When money is easy, these shares sell at
1920 premium When money rules as at present at
high interest rates, they sell at @ 1920 discount
from their issue price of $l00 per share.
The American Woolen Company has duties
toward the 5000 owners Of its shares-for-
ery $2oooo,ooo but recently expanded by the issue
of $40 ooo 900 additional stock for working capt.
tal This stock was offered to shareholders at par,
was underwritten at so commission by syndicate
of bankers and capitalists, and is quoted at 2o
discount from par although every share represents
an equity value above the preferred shares of more
than $500 per share.
The American Woolen Company has duties
toward it's faithful employees which rank ahead OF
Its obligations it's ordinary shareholders and are
co-eoual with the interests of its preferred share
holders All dependent, more or less, tor their
living and their livelihood upon wise and just man.
ageraent in the conduct Of this great enterprise.
The American Woolen Company aims to recog-
ize its manifold duties the public not only in the
production of the best woole goods American enter
prise can produce and in the meeting of honest COM
petition in free and open American markets, but in
the maintenance, far possible, Of steady
ployrnent for its employees Itrecognizes that upon
this steady employment depends the welfare OF the
cities and towns In which its mills are located.
New-York tribune., 1920-09-07

To have continued to manufacture and accun2r-
late unstable goods would have BEEN not only fnan-
cial suicide but would have insured depression in
the entire woolen industry from which it would have
taken many weeks, if not months, to recover by
universal shutdowns, with widespread disorganiza-
tion and unemployment.
Therefore, instead of the usual two weeks vaca-
ton in August the mills were shut down on Julv
10th, which fortunately the best season for two
months vacation. Had the shutdown been forced
i'm the winter season. as it would have been bv CON-
tinued accumulation of goods, there might have
been with high prices and famine conditions for fuel
some personal suffering
10 September 1st, however there has been less
cali upon the company and the public authorities for
personal assistance than in the preceding year. when
there was only two weeks vacation. The reason
tor this wholesome condition in our mill cornn,uni
ties was the large volume of wages paid the nas+
year-a sum exceeding anything ever before known
In the American woolen industry. Yet the average
wage is not higher than that in other skilled trades
entering into the cost of living.
We believe in good wages for the American
skilled working man-the highest wages that
expenditure by wage themselves will justify
The makers of goods are the consumers of goods in
this country. Prices must depend upon wages and
consumption.
Ihe American Wooden Company will be success
only far it is fair and lust to the capta1 and the
labor which it employs and to the public which II
serves.
If you believe in the policy of the American
Woolen Company in the maintenance of good wages
tor skilled working men, order your goods promptlv
this and if you carefully select vour woo1en
cloth according to your needs you will find in the
American Wooden Company production such va
riety as will make it unnecessary for YOU to invite
foreign importations
The American Woolen Company begins IT'S
exhibit to the trade Thursday, September 9th and
will begin the starting up of its mills Monday
September 18th.
The wage scale will be the same as when the
mills were forced to close in Tuly
The support of the public in the prompt purchase
Of the goods of the American Wooden COMPANY is
invited.
0LEN COMPANY
New-York tribune., 1920-09-07

To carry out these manifold duties it must aim
toward steadiness in prices and fair values for its
goods; for its wool purchased and for its labor en-
ployed It must avoid so far as possible the pur-
chase of wool at boom prices and it must be fore
handed in the of its capital in the purchase of
wool In times of liberal supply
It must aim to hold its skilled labor organization
with the fewest possible changes 1t therefore pays
the highest wages and gives the steadiest employ
ent SO far as 1t is supported by the public in the
purchase of its goods.
To manufacture and accumulate stock of goods
when the public refuses to purchase is only to invite
disaster in markets and prces reacting in the end
upon employees and the savings that furnish the
capital. Such policy continued would only result
in prolonged depression disorganzing all the forces
of both labor and capital which must jointly support
this enterprise in it's service to the public
The company must manufacture according to
orders either it's books clearly foreseen. Early
in this year the company had on it's books sufficient
orders to insure employment for six months
Labor was In universal demand and prices of
wool and woolen goods at the highest seen
since this company organized. To maintain our
organization and insure the fulfllnent of our con-
tracts another advance in wages of 1870 was an
nounced to our employees In May.
With the advance in the money rate and ncreas-
ing restrictions to credit, cancellations began to
come in; but for some time they more than
might be expected and not larger in volume than had
been seen in pre-war times without making disturb
ance In the industry.
When, however, on May 26th, the government
brought indictments against this company for prices
charged for its goods in open and competitive mar
kets it notice to the trade by the government
that the prices for woolen cloth must be reduced.
Although the indictments were dismissed by the
court of first Jurisdiction on June 11th cancellation
of orders became universal over the country Total
cancellations based upon figures collected by the
government estimated for the whole trade at
the entire annual output of the American Woolen
Company.
The total cancellation of orders upon the books
of the American Woolen Company amounted to more
than $4oooo,ooo, sufficient to give employment
for two months to all our workers.
