Mill Owners Also Declare That They Will Make No Further
 Concessions to Employes
LONG DRAWN OUT FIGHT
 IS GENERALLY PREDICTED
Seven Soup Kitchens Are Now Being Operated-If Mill Owners Eyict
 Tenants, 3O.OOO Persons Will Be Af- ton Mill Opens for Business Today.

Providence, March 10, (By Asso-
 ciated Press) .-The Rhode Island tex tile strike, now closing it's seventh
 week has developed into war of
 attrition." This is the opinion ex-
 pressed today by representatives of
 both manufacturers and workers. Will Fight All Summer.
 We will fight it out on these lines | if it takes all summer said William H. Derrick of the amalgamated tex tile workers, head of the strike or ganiZation in the Pawtuxet valley. where more than one-t third of the
 eighteen thousand operatives idle in the states as a result of the strike
 are ordinarily employed. In borrowing the tactics of General Grant, Derrick
 announced his objective to be a "4S hour week, no reduction in wages and no discrimination against strikers re- turning to work.
 It's Up to Workers. Just as fast as the employees dem onstrate that they want to go back, or any considerable number of them, the mills will be opened" said Ed ward r. Walker, secretary of the Rhode Island Textile association. The manufacturers propose 20 per cent reduction and 5f hour week. Ap- proximately score of their mills are closed.
 Derrick claimed that the Pawtuxet valley strikers could carry on indeti- nitey without work. Seven soup
 kitchens in as many mill villages feed thousands of strikers daily. Contributions continue to come in steadily from the outside, he said. The strikers continue to dwell in
 the houses owned by the mills, he said. strike heaGs narte-ta i" A- A2n haze l been leased for N gear
 l 30s9O9 PerSons Affected. "lf the mill owners evict our work
 PTS, they will have to drive out about 30,0o0 people, counting five to a fam lly," Derrick declared.
 Anyway the weather is getting warmer and they can live in tents. Our organization is brand new, dating back to the time the strike began but
 our Workes are unit. We have the
 mill owners licked right now"
 Soup Kitchens Costly.
 Representatives of the mill owners
 responded that the expenses of the
 free soup kitchens were three times
 the income of the strike fund daily,
 that hangers-on were being fed while legitimate workers in many cases were not, and that only a small group desired to enter on a fight to the fin ish with the mills. Many, they said,
 wanted to go to work again but were
 afraid of the "bludgeon and the blacklist
 Derrick declared today that the re- opening to date of mills closed by the strike had proved failure. He claimed that in no instance had enough hands been obtained to make operations worth while. Mill owners on the other hand reported steady gains in the plants that have resumed. In a list Of 36 mills Secretary Wal ker said that 30 had been completely closed at one time or another by the strike and that others were partially closed. Of the 30 which had been closed he declared 12 were now in operation to some degree.
