New England's Textile Industry


TIE prolonged strike in the textile
mills of New England has aroused
Southern business promoters to seek
supremacy in this great industry for
the Southern States. Since their
labor troubles began mill owners In
Rhode Island, Massachusetts and
New Hampshire have been fairly
inundated with letters from Southern
boards of trade. chambers of COM
merce and commercial organizations
setting forth in general terms the adj
va1tages OF the cotton belt region
over New England for manufactur-
ing plants, and, in some instances,
making tempting specific proposals.
The chaos into which labor trou-
bles and abnormal market conditions
have plunged the New England tex
tile industry has offered promising
field for this form Of enterprise.
That in this intelligent activity, and
the causes underlying what make its
opportunity, there is a menace to
New Fngland's continued leadership
in an industry on which its pros
perity largely is dependent Is fact
widely recognized.
AS an Offset to alarm created by
this campaign it has been asserted
that the Southern bid for mills Is
being used by New England manu-
facturers to scare the public into sup
port of the mill owners attitude to-
ward labor. 1t has been declared
that Southern mills are in reality the
property of Northern owners and
that the actual trouble is the result
OF the work of Northern owners who,
by creating low Southern wage
scale, are trying to beat down the
Northern mill pay to the same level.
In answer to this the New Eng
land mill owners have recently pre-
sented statistics, as to the accuracy
of which they invite inquiry. which
show that one-half the cotton spin
dies in the country, roughly speak
ing, are now in the South. OF this
number less than per cent. are
owned by Northern mills, while only
s per cent. are owned by Northern
money. This means that about SO
per cent. Of all the Southern mills
are owned and controlled by South
ern capital.
The arguments being pressed upon
Northern mill owners to induce them
to remove to the South, or at least to
establish branches there. are allur-
ing. They are supported by facts
that are hardly open to question.
Cheaper cotton, cheaper fuel. less fuel
required, lower transportation costs,
lower cost of living and consequent
willingness Of workers to accept
lower wages-these are among the
Inducements offered for Northern
consideration. Southern mill opera
tives. who are described as 100 per
cent. American" gladly work from
fifty-four to sixty hours week for
25 per cent. less pay than New Eng
land operatives demand for from
forty-eight to fifty-four hours. And
the crowning argument Of all is that
the Southern operatives are free from
the pernicious influence Of the labor
union politician. Strikes such as are
now paralyzing so many New Eng
land mills are economic factors that
may bo ignored in the South.
These are formidable arguments.
How long strike ridden mill owners,
with geographical and other handi-
caps, can be deaf to them and keep
on doing business at the old New
England stands Is question which
seems to be pressing rapidly to the
front.

Galesburg, July 20.-Does the av-
erage person look before he
''leaps"! The officials OF the c.. B.
60. desiring to find the answer
to this question. undertook to es-
innate how much or how little the
average person cares for his own
life and the lives of others. The
place chosen to carry ON the OBJ
servation for determining the eau
tiousness or carelessnes of in
dividuals, was grade crossing,
three miles east Of Galesburg on
the Peoria branch of the @. The
crossing is on the road between
Galesburg and Knoxville.
From daylight until darkness last
Sunday, a man was stationed at a
suitable point, where he could OBJ
serve the number Of autos that
crossed the tracks, and watch the
precautions taken by each one be-
fore venturing across. The re-
suit, III an alarming manner, re-
vealed the Indifference Of persons
to their safety.
Fifteen hundred cars crossed the
tracks. OF that number, only two
stopped and looked before cross
ing. and only two slackened their
regular rate. The other 1895 sped
across at the regular speed which
they had been travelling.
BY this simple observation, rail-
road officials found that the ans
wer to the above question cores
ponds to the condition that they
we're afraid existed.
