Cotton Mills.
e TIE Associated Press.

FALL RIVER, Mass, April t.
Tie six unions affiliated with the
textile council have voted to accept
the wage increase Of 121h per cent,
effective April 80, offered on Mon
day by the Fall River Cotton Manu-
facturerS' Association. The council
had demanded an increase Of II per
cent.
While the. unions in this city aiili-
ated with tn" United Textile Work
ers Of America have not indicated
their probable action OF the wage
increase, Il was said that the deci-
ston of the weavers to accept the
I22 per cent increase would have
some bearing on the policies OF the
doffers. sweepers and other L. T. W.
organizations, which have held out
for a 291s per cent increase. The
weavers. although affiliated with the
textile council, voted in favor Of
strike when the manufacturers first
refused to advance wages, and 1t was
believed by many that they might
join forces with the United Textile
Workers In the event OF q clash in
