Fall River mill workers seek 10 percent wage increase

In Fall River today the mill operatives, via their representatives, asked for a 10 percent wage rise to take effect Monday November 13. The manufacturers' committee declined to grant the increase and said the request would be referred back to the association for instruction. The three hour conference in Harmony produced no definite decision. The textile council argued margins favor the raise, citing higher cotton costs and lower regulars shares, while manufacturers warned that margins would shrink and stockholders would not see fair returns if the boost were granted. The outcome awaits the association's report and mass meetings of the unions.
