AMERICAN WOODEN CO. TAKING OVER
YANTIC AND THAMEsV|LLE MILLS

The Norwich Wooden Mills corporation
has been one of the few mills in the wool
en- business in New England that have
been running at 100 per cent. production
and the representatives of the American
Wooden company told Mr.. Kaplan that
they intended to keep up the same pro-
duction when they assumed control of the
mills The new management intends to
start operations on full time on Monday,
Dec 18th. and wills continue the operation
under the same conditions that now exist.
On Sunday morning at the Office of
the corporation there was meeting of
the executives of the mills, the overseers
and the representatives of the American
Wooden company at which various phases
of the business of the mills was discussed.
All were assured. however, that there
would be no change in the personnel of
the executives of the various mills, or,
in fact, in any of the departments of the
mills.
Mr.. Kaplan said Sunday evening that
he had no plans as yet for the future
but would remain In Norwich for the
time being, lending his assistance to the
new management of the mills in every
way possible. Mr.. Kaplan has been il
Norwich for the past six years and ha!
/ built up the business of the mills to
high degree Under his control there ha!
been very little labor trouble, even whel
there were strikes in other mills in tn
east, and he has kept his mills in opera
ton as much as possible even during tn
i period of reconstruction after the war.
The mills are closed at the presen
time, as an inventory of the stock an
equipment is being taken preparatory t
the turning over to the American Woole
company.
