Cotton Mill Wage
Fight Results il,
Halt in Buyingg
special Dispatch to rho Tribune


NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Feb. 4.-Ir-
respective Of what may be the final
outcome of the wage controversy in the
cotton manufacturing industry, there
can be no obscuring the fact that its
most immediate effect throughout the
industry has been to create strike
in the markets. For the third consecu-
tive week the trade has been unsettled
by the inauguration and spread of wage
reductions.
Converters Of finished goods have
taken it for granted that wage cut
throughout the industry is assured. In
the face of this they have withdrawn
from the market in anticipation of
lower prices on goods if a reduction
is made. Their action amounts to moth
ing other than strike against ad-
ditional purchases. What actual bene-
fits that are to accrue to the whole
salers from reduced wages is proble-
matical By the time any percentage
of reduction that may be made reaches
the retail trade, the amount will be
so small as to make it hardly notice
able. At the most it will not save the
consumer more than five or six cents
on shirt selling up to $3.50 There
is strong feeling that the wholesaler
will not profit to = much greater ex-
tent proportionately and that he will
have little to gain by waiting for wage
cuts to carry cloth prices down.
There has been about the same In
terest in the goods market as last week,

Answer-The New York Central col
lateral IS, due 1880, arc a good in
vestmcnt and have an element of Sc
curity- namely, the collateral deposited
under the trust agreement-which the
debenturc Gs do not have. Central
Steel 8s are business mans invest
ment. While they are secured by q
mortgage, they were issued to pro
vide working capital, and while in this
case and in q good many others in
the postwar period such a procedure
was forced on the companies, it is not,
in our opinion, desirable one. 1t is for
this reason and because Of the uncer-
tanty which still exists in the indie
pendent steel companies situation that
the bonds are selling to yield in the
nelghborhood Of per cent.
New-York tribune., 1922-02-05

growing belief that Rhode Island nigh
be obliged to make the fight alone
New Bedford and Fall River still are
untouched, and if wage cut is to be
reality in all New England mills the
final issue must be determined here.
The situation in Rhode Island is still
tense. Unon leaders admit that The
test there Will come netx week. when
an effort will be made by opening some
Of the mills. But Rhode Island has
unquestionably furnished one OF the
biggest surprises known to the New
England textile industry in the resist
ance to the reduction. 1t has been the
unorganized workers who have struck.
Pawtuxet Valley has only two mills
working, and these have not cut wages.
Yet there have never been labor or
ganizatiors there. The Amalgamated
Textile Workers. the most radical OF
the textile unions, which organization
has from all appearances taken the
lead in the Rhode Island situation,
alone claims to have 5000 members
now in the region affected by the
strikes.
New-York tribune., 1922-02-05

Neither do we think from such data
as we have been able to gather-somo
Of them supplied by the Business Build
ers' organization itself--that the sell
ing force which they claim to have es-
tablished is of proved ability Accord
ing TO their own admission the human
turnover among the Business Builders
statesmen has been very heavy. In other
words, their effort to build up perma-
nent sales force has not been success
iui, and such sales Of securities as they
have been able to effect have been
made by constantly changing group
of statesmen. If permanent sales force
had been built up it is difficult to see why
it was necessary to spend $24,975 up to
June l, 1921, and more since then. in
advertising for men, ap is stated by the
organization to have been the case.
Of course, there is admittedly no
equity in any tangible property behind
the stock Of tho Business Builders The
concern possesses no real estate. unlcsa

The sales OF print cloth in the Fall
River market is estimated at 10000.
The trade in New Bedford is described
as hand-to- mouth buying.
Ihe cotton market did furnish q
slight contradiction to predictions by
reacting toward some increase IN buy
This was due III part to the strength
ing of cotton prices that developed
from conditions beyond the scope of
the New England mill situation. But
trading and inquiry was at low level
when any comparison with normal
times was drawn. Fall River furnished
as much change as an yof the mar
kcts, the market there showing some
activity as the low grades of cotton
led the way toward price recovery.
New Bedford has been meeting needs
Oh a small scale, with short cotton
morein favor than extra staples. provi-
dencc has been absolutely fiat because
OF The widespread strike and sally
threatening situation in Rhode Island.
Mill men in all centers are avoid
ing any accumulation of stock until
they know what the next week or two
may hold for the industry. Brokers
are of the opinion that tho mills which
failed to buy in the decline of cotton
last week lost the best opportunity
they had of obtaining cotton cheap.
This applies particular yto extra sta
Piles. Cotton is seen by brokers as
a commodity that will steadily force
its price up, due to the short crop and
the avowed inability of the South to
recoup the shortage for two or three
years at tie best.
The wage question still continues to
be the absorbing subject. The inva-
sion of the reduction movement into
Massachusetts. New Hampshire and
Maine furnished the angles Of the
greatest significance. The spread of
the movement into these states was on

sticks to this decision even when the
