The cotton trade unions submitted evidence to the U.S. Government Committee of Inquiry into the cotton industry last autumn. The report has been now printed as a pamphlet. It is issued by the U.S. Publicity Department of the Trade Unions Congress for the United Textile Factory Workers' Association. The evidence sets out in considerable detail its statement of "facts" of the depression in the industry and of "causes." Arguments for bulk buying and bulk marketing were stressed in the report. In view of operatives unions, it was suggested that an intimation that the past policy of drift has to stop now, in interests of the industry with its half-million workers and in interests of the economic welfare of the nation as a whole.
