Se Windham Silk Company Votes to Shut Down Plant for Indefinite Time. The directors of the Windham Silk company held a long meeting Monday evening and following a thorough dis- cussion of the matter of the walkout of the weavers in their employ Mon- day morning, it was unanimously vot- ed to’ shut down the plant for an indefinite period. It is reported the weavers are not worried over the matter, as they are credited with making statements to is only a bluff on the part of the offi- cials, " Those who are aware of the condition of the silk market at pres- ent and of business in general are free to admit that a shutdown will benefit only the stockholders of the silk com- pany, The company has a good stock of manufactured goods on hand and will now be ‘enabled to push out some of the finished product and have a general cleaning up. Mills from fifty to ninety times as large as the Windham Silk company are at present operating their plants on a basis of from 36 to 40 hours per week with but slim prospects ahead of increasing that working schedule for some time to come. The walkout of approximately sixty weavers in the employ of the Windham Silk company will mean that the other efghty employes of the company will also be thrown out of employment that had every appearance of being steady, notwithstanding the present market condition, and they will be idle for a perlod of indeterminate length. It 1s sald that some twenty of the weavers who walked out were satisfled with the wage conditions and it is known that the big majority of the eighty other employes were satisfied and thus 100 contented employes have got to suffer, together with all depend- ent upen them, for the action of forty or so employes who were receiving & much better return for their labor than similar employes in mills throughout the state and New England, FUNERAL.
