cludes all necessary expenses of the

The Old Hickory Association of the
Thirtieth Division invites all il« mem

T- )
Charlotte. May 20.—North Caro
lina wilt be the battle ground in the
>npytiding rtrugglc of the textile|
woikcrx in the resistante of wage rv
dueiions in exesst of 22 1-2 per cent,
according to Thoraa* F. 'McMahon,
vice President of the United Textile
Workers of the world, bat onca the
walkout itirt* it may thread *to all
Sooth#rn textile centcn, be said.
Mr. McMahon explained tonight
that while a genera) blanket ordcT
for a strike had been drafted, aa an
nounced last night, It would biipme
effective probably In one group of
mills at the time, one mill eentcr af
ter another in ihc Carolina*, especi
ally the Piedmont section, being suc
cessively affected.
He ifrclercd that the only possible
development that might avert the
proposed strike would be satisfactory
■eUlrment of the wage reduction con
troversy through negotiations be
tween the mill executives and the lo
cal group* of workers. In only one
or two mills in the Southeast had a
satisfactory agreement been reached,
he said, ( despite the fset that appeals
had been Kent several week* ago by
the Charlotte Centra] Labor Union,
representing all organised trades of
this section, U> Uovemnr Morrison
of North Carolina, to the president
of the Southern Textile Association,
to the Charlotte Chamber of Com
imsrre, none of these had taken steps
to ward off a strike, ho said.
Mr. McMahon declared that he and
President Golden, of the Internation
al Textile Workers Union, had come
Into the South sevuial weeks ago to
eanvaw the situation in response to
appeal* by the local unlan* and rcil
orated the declaration that thoy never
earae at the instance of the irvterna
tional organisation or of their own ini
tiative. He is hers, he said, to counsel
with and ndrisc tho locel onion*
In North Carolina and eaeta other
Soothers textile 8toto, he said, there
is a Score t “cxecsitivo board, the
personnel of which is unkaewm to the
public, which keeps him informed of

The beak was completely tied «p
from March 19X4, to Maecklttl, aad
bocaaac greatly alanssod for its «*
ieteaec. Aa soon as the Soprmar Court
decision was handod down, w* went
actively to work, and the bast tint
was powibl* to do was to float a loan
of 494,000,000 in order to gat fundi
t* lead to farmers. It required the
purchase of certificates of dspoeit as
guarantee for this loan. No loon can
m made by aay person or corporation
without something behind it aa a
guarantee. The lttn day of April was
the earliest day this bond issue could
be pat on the market. These bonds
are 4 per coat bonds, non taxable
After the first few days they sold
with surprising rapidity, until are had
•old about seventeen millions of dol
lar*- This was about the first of May.
About this time tbs Grant Northern
Railway floated a 4X40.009.090 bond
law at 4 par cent. This axtre 4 per
cent interest drove our bouds o# the
market for a few days This seriously
cat dew* our salsa. This morning wv

ia a few days wo have every reason
to believe the isuua will bo eatirsly

time to reorgan lie the work, as we
bare lost a great deal of the old force

It «u a great privilege to bare une
