GOV, DOUGLAS AS STRIKE REFEREE GM VIEW Issues Statement in Which He Says a Partial Restoration of Wages is Not Warranted by the Condition of Textile Mills Since January. He Has Made Careful Investiga tion, Gathering Figures When ever Possible, and He is Forced to Conclude Against an Increase in Wages By Associated Press. Boston, May 17. In a statement is sued today, Governor Douglass, as ref ree in the settlement of the Fall River textile strike of 1904 finds that a par tial restoration of wages is not war ranted. When the strike was settled in January last, through the Governor's intervention, he was empowered to fix a margin of profit at which the opera tives would receive an increase of wages. The Governor reports that the conditions between the months of Jan uary and April was not such, as to warrant the increase. The strike affected 25,000 persons. and was begun in July, 1904, to resist a cut of 12 , per cent, and it lasted nearly six months, when the operatives returned to work with the reduction in effect. The Governor- finds it would require a margin .74 .38-100 cents between the price of cloth and its equivalent in un manufactured cotton to pay the re quested increase of five per cent, earned during the time which his investiga tion covered. This margin would allow six per cent, for mill dividends and five per cent, for annual depreciation. While the exact margin of the profit which prevailed during the period of investigation is not known, since it is a matter of which the manufacturers alone have knowledge, it is understood that it was under seventy cents. The Governor offers no direct recom mendation bearing on the Fall river situation. - PRIVATE CAR LINES.
