new ENGLAND'S INDUSTRIAL ROLE

and to increase its durability. Mixed
with cotton, it makes a cheap but
better class textile which has found
much favor in women's wear.
The New Bedford mills were never
erected for such work. They were
straight cotton mills, many of them
working on coarse products in the old
days. But one after another closed
down as southern mills, with lower
costs, took their business away. Due
to inefficient management and lack
of financial support, the New Bedford
industry was well on the way toward
ruin when some of the mill owners
suddenly awoke and began changing
their production system. Fall River
and Providence have also seen the
light in that regard These mills are
producing mixtures as well as all
cotton goods in wide sheetings, sheets
and pillow cases. In Fall River sew
eral of the mills are making big
money.
Business Lost to South.
Business has been lost for good to
the south in denims, the coarse over
alls material and other coarse colored
lines, straight print cloths, sheetings
and ginghams. Nor is there any COM
pelling reason why southern mills
can't turn out the finer cloths and
mixtures in the years to come. Many
already are treading on New England
toes in quality work and as labor be-
comes more skilled and the needed
machinery is introduced, the south
may well dispute with the north on
fine goods.
This is all the more probable as the
south is facing new and intensity
ing competition from still lower cost
mills in Cuba, Mexico, Latin-America
and the Orient, to which great guam
titles of her cheap textiles are now
shipped. As southern mills gradually
lose those markets, they will concen-
trate more on the quality markets
at home, pushing New England fur
Their to the wall

By HARVEY O'CONNOR.

What role New England will play
in the textile industry of the United
States is still moot question in the
hands of financiers, industrialists and
workers, awaiting answer. Its steady
decline from unchallenged supremacy
prior to 1880 to position now inferior
to the south is one of the outstanding
economic facts in American life.
That part of New England stretch
ing up the coast from Providence, Fall
River and New Bedford to Lowell
Lawrence and Manchester, compris-
ing the backbone of the cotton and
wooden textile region, has noticed
some slight revival in recent months.
The wide tendency toward liquidating
mills and moving machinery to the
south has been halted temporarily
The Lyman mills of Holyoke, Mass,
the York mills of Saco, Ne, and the
Osborn mills of Fall River, Mass,
have decided not to give up the ghost,
just yet.
Struggle Intensified
New management, fresh infusion
of capital and clamor for lower taxes,
in conjunction with an unusually fav-
orable spring and summer in the tex
tile industry, have aided these COM
panies. Now they plan concerted
drives on the 48-hour law for women
and children in Massachusetts, while
the steady pressure on workers for
greater individual production sweeps
on apace as the army of the unem-
ployed grows larger.
Many of the mills are controlled by
the Boston and Providence bankers,
who long ago Invested themselves of
regional patriotism. These bankers
for years have been drawing their
money out of New England mills and
transferring it to the south where it
could earn twice as much Thus mill
after mill has gone to the wall be-
cause Of lack of financial assistance
in the tight places, while the money
which might have tided them over
has been sent south to make their
plight all the worse through added
competition.
Old Methods Discarded.
New Bedford, seat of former Sena-
tor Butler, boss of the Bay State re-
publicans and manager for the Cool
idge political fortunes, seems to have
pointed the way from impending
doom. Mills there are abandoning the
coarser yarns and weaves and center
ing on the production of fine and /
fancy goods. Mixtures of cotton with
rayon, the new chemically produced
material, have proved life
saver. Rayon is rapidly being per-
fected to eliminate Objectionable shine

 The other comedian was his broth CT, and, since Charlie was earning so much money, brother joined forces with him as business manager It seemed a pity to some managers that the brother, who started out as rec onizable the funnier of the two, should have given up his acting, and eventually way was found to rem edy the situation.

Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 17.-(AP)-
Already i'll at case over the harvest

farmers of the corn belt states again

That is the gist of reports brought

North Dakota Farms
Are Producing More

Volume Of production for the av-
eragc farm in North Dakota has in
creased materially in recent years,
this increase amounting to 10 per
cent in the reriod from 1920 to
1925, according to calculations made
by Rex E. Willard, farm economist
at the North Dakota agricultural
college. "This does not necessarily
mean greater total production be-
cause there are less farms now than
in 1920" states Mr.. Willard.
"Of particular significance is the
fact that while the volume of pro-
duction Of cash grain crops has in
creased only three per cent, the
amount of livestock products per
farm has increased 35 per cent" is
the comment made by Mr.. Willard.
Butterfat production per farm was
204 pounds in 1920, and in 1926 the
average was 484 pounds, according
to Mr.. Wizards figures; beef in
creased from 4,2S0 to 4,30O pounds
for the same period: hogs increased
from 1880 pounds to 2,2OO pounds,
and sheep 287 pounds to $40 pounds.
The increase in production Of poul-
try and eggs for this period is about
20 per cent.

ALLEGED TALKATIVE JUROR WILL Be
GIVEN HIS DAY IN COURT TOMORROW
Edward j. kidwell Claims He
,4Iid Not Express Any Views
on Case While 1t Was Still in
Ccurt-Justice SiddOns Will
Preside at Hearing

Washington, Nov. 17.-(AP)-The
lull in the grand jury investigation
of the Fall-Sinclair oil mistrial has
served to concentrate attention upon
the claim of Edward J. Kidwell, al
legged talkative juror, that he did not
express any views on the case while
it was still in court, as charged by
J. Ray Akers and Donald X. King.
Vigorously denying that he made
the assertions attributed to him,
kidwell will be given his day in
court tomorrow in response to a
petition that this action be taken
against Akers, a street car worker,
and King, a reporter, on the ground
that they attempted to lead him in
to disclosing his views on case in
which he was a juror. The hearing
was called by Justice Frederick l..
Siddons, who presided at the oil
trial.
Akers and King asserted in affi-
davits that Kidwell expressed senti-
ments favorable to the defense, and
said, among other things, that when
a verdict was reached he expected to
receive an automobile "as long as
this block"
Situation Is Complicated
Disposition of Kidwell's petition
was complicated by the fact that
Justice Siddons has ordered an in
quiry into the possibility of lodging
contempt charges, based on these
affidavits and on two others, signed
by assistant district attorneys, in
which the activities of Burns detec.
tives employed by the defense to
shadow the jurors was first brought
to light.
Meanwhile. the grand jury inves.
tigation of circumstances surround
