Mills Strike Leaders See Settlement After Hathaway Proposal
Strikers expect acceptance of Hathaway’s plan and a settlement but doubt mills will resume before Monday. Borden mills owner M C D Borden is seen as guiding terms. Since Monday about 5,000 unemployed have sought work elsewhere, with 100 returning to the White Mill today. Brokers on Bedford Street fear a cotton price drop linked to the stoppage, as Borden consumes about 80,000 bales annually.
