% i \ CHERAW CHRONICLE JOE LINDSAY, Editor Foreign "Advertisinc Representative THE AMERICAN PRESS A "MX! A HON THE NEW ENGLAND AWAKENING. The Gastonia Gazette yesterday carried a story from The New York Daily News-Record to the effect that no more cotton mills are going to be built in New England, and that thereis a good possibility the majority of1 the mills now operating there will be moved South. From another source? The American Wool and Cotton Reporter?The Obs^ver learns that thi.*southward movement of New England spindles and looms is already under way. That paper was speaking editorially of the situation in New England , textile circles, and in the course of its article it gave rather outspoken deliverance on cause and effect. * I zThe cause: "The textile industry of New England in Massachusetts is suffering from auto-intoxication. The State is so bed-ridden by labor laws that the cotton and woolen mills cannot function actively. We can't compete in 48 hours with manufacturers who run 60 hours. We can't continue , to pay cotton weavers $3 per loom per , week, of 48 hours, and compete with , manufacturers on the Catawba River who pay 70 cents per loom, per week of 54 hours." Effect: "We know an Eastern mill that a few years ago had 3,000 looms on tickings. Now it has 200?all gone South. Another had 4,000 looms on denims. Now it has ten?all gone South. Another had 5,000 looms on plain blue chambray?now 5C0?all gone South. Massachusetts has practically stopped growing as a cotton manufacturing State?all gone South, i Hundreds of New England mill overseers and superintendents have gone South. True, Massachusetts money owns some Southern mills, but Massachusetts textile workers do not profit by that." The New England manufacturer are now admitting by way of grievance that "most" of their workers are not citizens, nor even are they "voters." Furthermore, they appear to be revising their opinion as to efficiency. The compalint is that in Southern mills it is not uncommon to I '' v'-- ' ' * " ' * l#:A'$rtW<: >: H A. i?**** :< st W/*^'d b; vColumbia Dry Batteries T 7 work better and last JL 1V? f V longer ? ?for bells and buzzers ?for thermostats ?for gas engines j i ?for dry battery lighting *"0r do0ri in closet, cellar, garret, alarms, tf barn, etc. or tWO G ?for ignition on the Ford while starting For l'gnit! use Colin The world's most famous dry tcry No. battery.

The two thousp and canvassers represent those who I j have already signed the contract and , who are convinced that the future ' r prosperity of the state depends in a s very large measure on the successful completion of the ^campaign for the * formation of the South Carolina Cotton Growers' Cooperative Association. The month of March has been one of great activity in practically all counties and great headway has been made. Over 100,000 bales have been C signed during this month and the I machinery has been perfected for the I great drive which is expected to bring victory next month. During the month of March bankers, preachers, lawyers, doctors and teachers have joined with the farmers in making speeches over the state in hehalf of the movement. The plans and purposes of the association have been explained in every cotton growing county of the state. Last week was a great week in many of the counties. Marlboro has now signed up 26,445 bales: Darlington ' 19,529 bales; and Sumter 17,000 bales. .

The four leading counties have signed up over 70,000 bales or more than one-sixth of the quota for the whole state. These four counties expect to sign a total of 100,000 or one-fourth of the quota for the whole state before May 1. Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson and Laurens in the Piedmont section are expected to sign up another 100,000. Reports from over the state tell of enthusiasm everywhere. The bankers and businessmen, realizing that the prosperity of the state is depend?nt to.,a great degree upon the formation of the association are throwing themselves actively into the light. s WEAK, NERVOUS, ALL RUN-DOWN > > Missouri Lady Suffered Until She > Tried Cardni.?Says "Result Wat Snmntlno -Tnf A Inner Fine, Became Normal \ and Healthy.
