There’s Big Money in Wool Not for Sheep Raisers
A 1922 critique notes how the Fordney McCumber tariff lets woolen and textile firms expand capital and pay large stock dividends while farmers and sheep raisers miss out. It lists Wanskuck, York Manufacturing, New Bedford Mills, Davie & Brown, Pacific Mills, Cornell Mills, Lincoln, Merrimac, and Oskdale as examples of increased capitalization and high dividends, arguing the policy harms agricultural producers and widens wealth from industry. The piece contrasts past executions and superstition with modern progress, urging vigilance on economic justice.
