Your industry mately engaged in it.

is worthy of the best men that you can. put in it. See to it that the mills are controlled by the men who will put their best in it:

To the operatives I would say 'in- vest part of your savings in shares in the mills in which you are employed..

WORKERS SHOULD SHARE.

Hitherto these savings in many cases have been invested in loans and, although this has been invested in the past, I would rather you now take a more direct interest, by becoming shareholders in the mills. You wil thus share in the present prosperity of the trade, and realise what is neces- sary to maintain this prosperity..

I have had great opportunities of surveying the cotton industry of the world for many years, and I think the foregoing views can only lead to one conclusion-i.e. that if the industry is allowed to manage its own affairs. 14 sanguine view of the future may be taken. The business, however, must be managed by men who know the alpha and omega' of the trade, ́and, interference from professional poli- ticians, lawyers and speculators must be discouraged.

"More than that is needed to reap in | full the advantages of the boom.

The best of relationship maust exist; between employer and employed. The time has gone when operatives can be looked upon as hands." They are essential to the maintenance of a grest. industry. They must be assured that their interests are bound up in the prosperity of the trade. The employ- ers must recognise the rights of the workers. The workers must realise that there are two sides to every ques- tion. With a harmonious blending of the interests of both sides the industry will go forward to greater prosperity than has been enjoyed in the past.. Foreign competition can then come, but Lancashire will be prepared to meer it..

NEW RACE OF HAWKERS. ":',' WORK FOR EX-SERVICE MEN.

Wearing armbands inscribed, "Federation" and carrying trays with. the legend "Soldiers' and''Sailors' Sell-Support Society," a new race of hawkers will make their appearance on the London streets shortly.

The scheme has been prepared by Commander Peile, R.N. (invalided) and Captain Blackwood, late R.A:F., who are in partnership at 17, Fen- church Street.

In a statement made in the Daily Chronicle. they explain that ex-Service men, recommended by their associa- tions, will on application be furnished with a selection of articles, such as socks, ties, razors, knives, and braces, of a quality suitable for each locality to be sold at prices below those "now charged for similar articles in shops. The men only have to provide a peddling liccuse, and will participate on a profit-sharing basis.

"The scheme," the partners state, is actually in working order, and a large number of men will be equipped and allotted beats in the West-End South Loncha, and at busy centres. The end timed at is that each man should be enabled to earn at least £0 per week."

It is hoped to extend the scheme to all the large towns throughout the country, and out of their share of pro fits, the partners propose to devote a percentage to the establishment of a sickness and accident insurance for whole-time fen
