"I realise that' this Is a serious matter, and a step which anyone Interested in New England is loath to take, but the situation has long been a serious one. The Southern mills are operating 110 hours a week Ht the Name cost as our nulls, and as a result we have suffered a direct loss. We have held off. honlne amlnst hone. that something woulti be done toward remedying the situation, but are now faced with the fact that we must either go South, or go out of business." declared Mr. Braytom "Here is the case." he further declared, "one of our oldest cus tomers, who for years took 260, 000 yards of goods a week from us, haa been buying In the South for some time. He haa no fault what ever to find with us, yet he can not see his way clear to purchase here, as the price is much lower in the South. There are manv other similar cases, and one cannot blame j our customers for favoring the cheaper market, for the same grade. The goods that we propose to make in the South are low grade goods,, which unskilled labor can make, as well as skilled, at a much lower cost.

Considerable pressure has been brought to bear upon the Saga more corporation In an effort to have them cancel their Southern policy, but without the least suc cess. Pressed as to the location of the proposed Southern mills, Treasurer Brayton stated that he Sagamore Company had no furthei details to release at this time. It will be quite an undertaking, and will take considerable time to transfer the present equipment. "As to the Carolina mills." he said, "we Intend to purchase two we know of now, outright, and If others are not available we will secure the necessary acreage and break ground by Spring. Treasurer Brayton has no sym pathy whatever for the move to migrate S, 000, 000 Southern ne groes for the use of Northern Tex tile mills, as is being prepared by the national negro conference, at Washington, and sponsored by the New England Chamber of Com merce.

The negro Is aa much a part of the cotton field as the plant It self. As a laborer under such clI-J matte conditions, he cannot be re placed, and efforts made to cause him to desert so natural a field of endeavor should be discouraged. He would be absolutely worthless In Northern textile mills, which would go into bankruptcy In at tempting to do anything with him even in an unskilled way.
