BY J. C. ROYLE. Special Dispatch to The Star NEW YORK, April 26. - South Carolina_cotton mills prepared today to cut down production 23 per cent and will work on reduced schedules until there is a stronger demand for cotton goods from consumers, It is regarded as likely that the movement will spread to other mills in the Pied- mont section. Since the action is purely a volun tary one, not arrived at hy mutual agreement, it is likely curtaliment will last only o long as individual mills find it advisable. Stocks of cotton goods in ware- houses and at the mills are not par- ticularly heavy, according to cotton men, but prospects of a b cotton ctien, support- ed by heavy plantings and reports that weevil activity is less to be teared than usual, have induced mill executives to go slow ior a time. To Care for Employes. Nevertheless, they wiil not let other considerations fnfluence them to cut working time and forces to such an extent as to hurt their workers. For the good will and prosperity of the Southern workers is regarded as the greatest asset of the mill owners Even if they have to accumulate large stocks of goods, these employes will | - summer had heen granted nearly | be looked after. Their value has emphasized by the progress at Passaic mills. This struggle idle for weeks where the workers had no complaint to make. where their wages were satisfac and where .hey already everything asked by the other work ers.

It is per-| fectly all right for use in winding | coils which are used in radio frequency circuits or in the plate circuits where high resistance and impedance per- mit only a feeble current to flow, but it should never be used in filament cir- cuits which are connected with the “A" battery. The cotton or silk insu- lation is not very firm and unravels very easily. A chance touching of the negative and positive leads will pro- duce a shortcircuit with the possibility of causing a damaging fire.

R LABOR TROUBLE IN MEXICO PERILS AMERICAN MINE by Workers Refused, and Company's Plant Guarded by Federal Troops. By the Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, April 26.—George F. Zoffman, manager of the Cinco Minas, an American mining company, in the state of Jalisco, has had a lengthy conference with James R. Sheffield, the American Ambassador, regarding his company's labor troubles, describing the situation as dangerous. The property of the com- pany is being guarded by federal troops in compliance With a request made recently by the embassy. Demanding higher wages, which the company refused, the workers went on strike in February. Local courts decided in favor of the Cinco Minas and the miners appealed to the Supreme Court. Pending action by the Supreme Court, the authorities have placed an embargo on the company’s property and material, valued by Mr. Zoffman at $400,000. The manager made the assertion that the company wanted the property returned and requested that steps he taken to prevent labor disturbances in the vicinity. ——ee ordinary cotton or silk covered wire, it is far from being safe, because this type of insulation is also very apt to unravel leaving bare spots which can cause trouble. Acid, Dangerous. The liquid used in a battery is a mixture of water and sulphuric acid. The only place where it will do any good is inside the storage battery cells. If you handle the battery care- lessly and allow the acid to spill on a rug or over your clothes you will pay, for your carelessness with the price of the rug or the clothes. Acid in your eyes or in your hands is abso. lutely dangerous and if you remémber that you will exercise more care when you handle it. The fumes given off by a storage battery when on charge are as danger- ous as gasoline fumes or a gas leak. Wise people do not go looking at the amount of gasoline in their tanks with a match. Neither do they go looking for a gas leak with a match or open flame. 1f they do vou don't wiring up the set. If you will use regulation rubber covered wire not smaller than No. 18 you will need have no fear that a short circuit of this type will ever accur. Some people | use ordinary bell or annunciator wire | for battery connections. While this lis not as dangerous as the use of blame the gasoline or gas if an ex- plosion takes place. You blame the carelessness and ignorance of the fel- low who used a match.
