LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
To His Excellency, A. W. McLean,
Governor of North Carolina.
Sib:—Pursuant to Section 7311, Consolidated Statutes, 1919, I here-with
transmit the Thirty-Fifth report of the Department of Labor and
Printing, covering the biennial period 1925-1926.
I present in statistical form information in regard to the industries
of the State. From these figures one can get a conception of the won-derful
progress that North Carolina has made during the biennial period
and it is regretted that limited space and funds prevent going into
greater detail in showing this progress. I feel that our industrial
growth has, to a great measure, been due to the labor conditions that
prevail throughout the Staite.
From observation and information received as Commissioner of Labor
and Printing, I am of the opinion that North Carolina is in the
fortunate condition of having as near ideal relations existing between
what is commonly called "capital and labor" as any State in the Union.
The industrial plants and industrial communities of North Carolina
are fast developing the "community spirit." Every industrial plant, of
any size, now furnishes for its employees, community houses, swimming
pools, playgrounds and various other forms of recreation and amuse-ments.
Instructions are given by doctors and other trained professional
men and women, to employees of the various plants, on health and liv-ing
conditions. Interest is shown in the public schools adjacent to and
in connection with the various industrial plants, by the owners and
managers.
In return for the many conveniences and recreations that are fur-nished
the working man and his family, the employees have developed
an appreciation of the conditions and there has arisen a spirit of
cooperation that has very nearly eliminated industrial strife in North
Carolina. A few minor industrial disruptions have been noted, in
North Carolina, during the past two years and without legal authority,
W I have made a quiet investigation into the cause of these few industrial
''f* iii

North Caeolina Industrial Statistics
disturbances that have existed and it is my belief that ninety-five per
cent of the unrest that has developed has been caused by agitators that
have come in from sections beyond the borders of North Carolina.
No legislation could forestall the coming of these agitators and the
only way to counteract their influence is for the employer and employees
to continue to develop the spirit of harmony and fellowship each work-ing
for the best interest of the other, striving to improve the quantity
and quality of production and living conditions.
The public schools, good roads and other public improvements have
all been most effective in establishing the friendly relations that now
exist between the manufacturer and the working man. With the con-tinued
progress of the State, the education of the working class and the
cooperation of employer and employee, industrial strife in North Caro-lina
Avill be completely eliminated in a short time.
Also as required by law, I herein make such recommendations as in
my opinion would serve to the best interest of the public and would in-crease
the efficiency of this department.
WORJvMEN^S compensation ACT
North Carolina in the past two decades has made such rapid progress
as an industrial State that it has come to be recognized throughout the
nation and the world as being one of the greatest industrial sections of
the universe. Scarcely is there a single article produced, by man or ma-chinery,
that is not being produced in North Carolina. With a popu-lation
of over two and one half millions, a large percent are now en-gaged
in industrial work of some kind. Yearly the number of indus-trial
workers increase but the State has failed, thus far, to provide ade-quate
laws for the protection of this large percent of her population that
is engaged in hazardous work. This is at variance with the progress
that the State has made in other lines and is not consistent with the
business standards of the State.
Out of the forty-eight states of the Union there are now only six that
do not have some form of the principle of the workman's compensation,
and it is a source of regret that North Carolina is one of these states
-^
Letter of Transmittal
along with Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Missouri and South Caro-lina.
The fact that this form of settlement of accidents in industry has
proven to be highly successful in forty-two states of the Union and in
practically every foreign country of the world speaks for itself and I
earnestly urge the enactment of a just workman's compensation law by
the General Assembly of 1927.
MINING
For the calendar year 1925 there was produced in the State of N'orth
Carolina approximately fifteen millions of dollars in mineral and other
products of the mines. The law provides inspection of these mines by
the Commissioner of Labor and Printing and I consider that this duty
is one that should be performed by a technical expert or a competent
mine engineer with at least five years' experience in underground mine
operations.
"We have operating in ll^orth Carolina, at the present time, two bitu-minous
coal mines and many smaller mines producing iron ore, feld-spar,
etc. There is a total of twenty-four minerals found in the State
and these various minerals are found in forty-four different counties.
While some of these mines are not in operation during the entire year
I regard it as very essential that these mines should be inspected.
Both of the coal mines in ISTorth Carolina have had explosions during
the past two years. The Carolina Coal Company Mine, at Sanford, E.
F. D. exploded on May 27th, 1925, and resulted in the death of fifty-three
men and the injury of two. The explosion of the Erskin-Eam-say
Coal Company, at Cumnock, IST. C, was on November 24th, 1926,
and resulted in the death of two men and the injury of two. The latter
explosion was slight but the former at the Carolina Coal Company Mine
resulted in the death of every man under ground and completely wrecked
the mine for several weeks.
I do not undertake to argue that proper and adequate mine inspection
would have prevented these two explosions but it would have given this
department an opportunity to have had greater knowledge of the condi-tions
of these mines if proper periodical inspection had been made by
a competent and efficient mine inspector. Also the State of North
vi !N'oKTH Carolina Industrial Statistics
Carolina could have presented the mining industry in this State with
a clearer conscience i£ everything in its power had been done to safe-guard
the workmen in the mines.
There are dangers to both life and property in all of the mines and
quarries operating in JSTorth Carolina. Too often a disaster can be
caused by defective machinery or falling parts of rocks or other mate-rial
striking a workman. There is an inadequate practice of safety and
precaution in the mining industry. Therefore, I earnestly recommend
the enactment of legislation for the creation of a competent mine in-spector
in the Department of Labor and Printing.
Respectfully submitted,
F. D. Grist,
Commissioner.

ABUNDANT AMERICAN LABOR SOUTH'S GREAT ASSET
STAUNCH, INTELLIGENT AND SKILLED CHARACTER OF THE CON-TENTED
AND PROSPEROUS ANGLO-SAXON MILL OPERATIVES
OF THE SOUTH IMPORTANT FACTOR IN RAPID EXPANSION
OF SOUTHERN TEXTILE INDUSTRY
By Wade H. Harris, Editor, Charlotte Observer.
The following article appeared iii the Manufacturers Record under date
of October 28, 1926, and is reprinted here by courtesy of the Manufac-turers
Record, Baltimore, Md.
Northern and New England Textile men continue coming South to invest
their capital. These mill men bring their money, but they do not bring their
labor. In fact, the impelling motive is to get away from that labor and to
leave it behind, for it is the established superiority of Southern mill help that
develops one of the South's most potent advantages in the field of industry.
The climate, as a matter of course, is a great asset, for the mechanical
humidifier is of but small necessity ; nearness to the raw supply is another
factor ; healthier living and cheaper living is yet another, but the staunch,
intelligent and skilled character of Southern Anglo-Saxon mill help is the
factor that makes the strongest appeal to the average outsider looking for
investment in the South.
Back of all these advantages of proximity to the cotton fields, of abun-dance
of native labor, of climate and of healthy and happy domestic conditions
is the paramount factor of cheap and abundant electric power. It was the
construction of transmission lines through all cotton sections of the South
that gave the textile industry its first great impetus and which is responsible
for the continuing multiplication of spindles and looms in the South. Devel-opment
of water-power resources is keeping just a little ahead of the devel-oping
demands by industry, and, like the supply of labor, the supply of
electrical energy iin the South seems to have no limit. Cheap electric power
will always play an important part in promotion of Southern industry.
Tlie Northern and New England men coming South likewise manifest a
preference for mill plants already built and in operation, as witness the
recent purchase by New York interests of such important manufacturing
plants as the Caroleen, the Henrietta and the Cherokee Falls. They have
not only saved the trouble of building and equipping mills, but come into
possession of factories already manned with competent labor, a class of labor
that aside from being intelligent and capable, is willing and endowed with
the very desirable qualifications of loyalty. The new investors show keenness
in seeking out the centers from which this native help is drawn. They find
good opportunities in the Piedmont districts of both North Carolina and South
Carolina, and investments have been particularly active in the vicinity of
Charlotte, Gastonia, Greenville and Spartanburg, while there has been a
distinct movement from the Piedmont farther into the heart of the native V
NoRTTH Carolina Industrial Statistics
labor, an indication of wliich is found in the drift toward Hendersonville,
Swannanoa, Black Mountain and Asheville sections, where new mills have
been built and purchased mills added to.
The textile industry is gaining impetus in the mountain districts and
largely by reason of the abundance of native labor available. There is no
exhaustion of this supply, for the Piedmont and mountain sections are pop-ulated
with the families of the Rooseveltian characteristics. The prospects
is that no matter to what extent the industrial South is developed, there
need be no fear on the score of exhaustion of native labor to man the fac-tories.
One factor in reliability of this labor supply is that industrial life in the
South is happy and contented, healthy and prosperous, the conditions under
which Southern labor lives being quite the opposite of tenement life in the
North and East. It is out of doors for the Southern mill worker. The mill
towns are model villages, except in the few isolated particulars, where old-estabUshed
mill settlements have not been renovated. But every mill village
built and populated in recent years is a village laid out after what might
be accepted as modern city planning. Paved streets are the first consider-ation
; water-works and sewerage come next. Then there is the flower garden
in front and the vegetable garden behind the home and the garage alongside.
Inside there are rugs and carpets, radios, pianolas, telephones, electric lights,
bath rooms, and, in fact, "all the conveniences of the city home." There are
schoolhouses of modern type—in architecture some of the cotton-mill school-houses
are a little ahead in architecture and equipment of the city buildings
—they have churches, hospitals, gymnasiums, playgrounds, trained nurses
and doctors, the latter provided by the mill owners. In short, the cotton-mill
operatives in the South live amidst the best surroundings that medical science
can devise and in all the comforts that money can provide, for it is the human
element that dominates the Southern textile industry, and which is the
promotive concern of the mill owners themselves, largely organized under
the name of the American Cotton Manufacturers Association. For this
organization Stuart W. Cramer is a representative spokesman, and we can
do no better than draw on his picture of life as lived in the Southern mill
community.
The mill village, he explained in an address before a meeting of the
association last year, is generally located outside the corporate limits of any
municipality and often in the country, therefore self-contained and self-supporting,
with its own store buildings, schools, churches and public utilities,
with its dwellings clustered around the mill buildings and all owned by the
mill company as a whole or in large part. The schools are under the direction
of the county boards of education ; wages are paid weekly in cash ; the stores
are generally owned and conducted by outsiders ; the churches are directed
by the regular church organizations, and the community activities are more
and more those of the people themselves, with a small negro population living
in the outskirts or in some segregated district.
And here comes in an important feature bearing on the relative wage
scale in New England and the South. In these mill villages we have described
Abundant American Labob South's Great Asset
the average charge, as Mr. Cramer says, is 25 cents a room per week. This
includes electric lights, water and sewerage, and is not even enough to keep
the houses painted and in repair, and that small amount is more than offset
by village and welfare expense, so that it is really not only a totally unpro-ductive
investment but a losing one. It has been demonstrated that this free-rent
equivalent and general village and welfare expense amounts to $4.36 per
operative per week, which is another way of saying that the Southern mill
operative enjoys an advantage of $4.36 per week over the representative
Northern mill operative, who usually lives in a city and has to pay out of
his wages an amount equal to that sum for the things his Southern brother
gets free. Now, that statement brings on more talk, for it is really not a
gift; on the contrary, one of the topics under very serious consideration by
the American Cotton Manufacturers Association is how best to handle that
matter, which is, after all, but a bookkeeping transaction, that the employes
will not only realize that it is a real item in their compensation, that it is
really a part of their pay, and also that the public generally may realize that
Southern cotton-mill workers are not so poorly paid as appears on the surface.
All this is recognized by the National Industrial Conference Board, which
now appends to its regular published wage comparisons the following foot-note
"The wage data given are for cash payments only and do not take into
consideration the value of such wage equivalents as reduced or free house
rent or other special services rendered by the companies to employes. Various
forms of wage equivalents are in use in industrial establishments in many
localities, and they are almost universal in the Southern cotton-mill districts,
but the part which these play as compensation for work performed cannot be
taken into account in a study of this character."
We have mentioned the garage alongside the house, for the average
cotton-mill worker in the South does not have all his recreation at home. He
has an automobile for him'self and family, just as surely as he has a cow and
a few pigs. The automobile necessarily figiires in Southern mill community
life, for, and it is the observation of Mr. Cramer, that even the most casual
of visitors to a mill community in this section must be impressed with the
amazing number of automobiles of all "vintages" in sight. The auto plays
an important part in the life of the operatives, for, to resume Mr. Cramer's
narrative, the mills close down on Saturday forenoons at 11 o'clock and by
early afternoon large numbers of workers are out for the week-ends even as
their former envied society neighbors. The educational value of all this
commingling of people over large areas is incalculable and contributes greatly
to their health and contentment ; no longer can agitators mislead them, for it
is too easy to go, see and check up, and few employers can shirk their respon-sibilities,
for the most desirable workers easily find work and surroundings
to their liking. One curious fact well worth noting is the number of work-men
who come to their work in automobiles, particularly those who come
in from the contiguous country for miles around during slack seasons on
the farms, and often country produce is brought to market at the same
time. The effect of this influence on industry, both farming and manu-facturing
is obviously far-reaching and gives promise of being at least in
xii North Cakolina Industrial Statistics
part a solution of the housing and home problems. "It is noteworthy," Mr.
Cramer submits by way of side remark, "that this great result is being
achieved by industrialists along sound economic lines rather than by legisla-tion
invoked by academicians—the rankest and most insidiously dangerous
kind of paternalism."
If it might be charged that we are playing up the Southern mill men too
much in the light of benefactors—and they are that in fact—it might be
explained that back of all this consideration they give to the welfare of their
help is a patriotic interest in the child of today, which, as Mr. Cramer says,
is regarded as the hope of Southern industrialism of tomorrow. The sentiment
of the Southern cotton-mill owner i.s reflected in the statement that "the health,
training and opportunities we bring to the children of today will largely
determine whether they will care to be the mill workers of tomorrow." Any
Southern mill man, therefore, who fails to support child-welfare work and to
observe such child-labor restrictions as have survived the chaos of experimen-tation,
both legislative and industrial, whether compelled to do so by law
or not, "is a traitor to his industry and to his own selfish Interests."
Back of the Anglo-Saxon mill help of the South stands a yet more
important factor, one who is accustomed to get much more of misplaced blame
than of well-deserved praise. It is the Anglo-Saxon mill man, and this is his
picture : "The average Southern mill man usually starts small, often has
come up from the ranks, succeeds in a small way and gradually works up to
an income that provides the usual necessities and luxuries of life ; his success
from that point on means only more income to be reinvested by enlargiing his
plant, added responsibilities and worries and no more necessities nor luxuries."
Here, then, comes in the cardinal principle of the Southern mill man : He sees
that he can best add to his own happinass and peace with the world "by
investing more and more of his own excess income in the health and happiness
of his fellow-men," this fellowship being constituted of the i)eople who daily
surround him as helpers and associates, and who draw his weekly payroll.
Such are the outstanding characteristics of the Southern cotton-mill work-ers,
the Southern cotton-mill owners and the domestic environments of life
in the Southern cotton-mill community.
CHAPTER I
COTTON MILLS
North Carolina leads the nation as the greatest cotton goods manu-facturing
State. There has been a substantial and permanent growth
in the industry during the past ten years but it is only during the last
two years that the State has taken first place in the manufacturing of
textile goods. The leading products of the mills are denims, canton
flannels, flannelettes, towels and toweling, cotton table damask, sheets
and sheetings, pillow cases, commercial yarns and ginghams.
The growth in the textile industry during the past ten years has been
very rapid but during the past two years, when the industry seemed to
be more on a decline in other states, North Carolina has gone forward
in a rapid manner. Statistics show that the State now has 6,075,168
spindles in place which is 156,630 more than were employed in 1924.
The number of active spindle hours for 1926 were 19,952,947,406 while
in 1924 they were 17,332,650,667. The actual number of spindles placed
in the mills of Massachusetts exceed those of North Carolina by a little
over five million being 11,417,406 but the number of spindle hours were
only 17,938,121,787. This gives to North Carolina 1,014,825,619 more
active spindle hours than any other one State.
Some of the mills have been consolidated and a few of them have
ceased to operate during the past two years but new ones have been
established and the total number of mills in the State today is larger
than it was at the close of the last biennial period. North Carolina
with four hundred and six mills has more active mills than any other
State. Table number one shoAvs a list of the mills by counties, Gaston
County, with 1,116,760 spindles and eighty-eight mills leads the State
as the greatest textile county. Of the seventy-three counties in the
United States that employ over 100,000 spindles twenty-one of these
counties are in North Carolina. It is to be regretted that some of the
mills failed to report certain items but of the four hundred and six
mills that are now in this State three hundred and forty reported a
capital stock of $196,515,585.
North Carolina Industrial Statistics
The number of looms used in the industry is 102,529 and the num-ber
of cards 16,336. During the year 1916 there were only 62,918 looms
and 9,806 cards showing an increase during the period of ten years of
62% in the looms and 66% in the use of cards. There are 641,100,442
pounds of raw material used annually in the mills of the State. Three
hundred and forty-five of the mills report the estimated value of the
yearly output to be $303,799,410.
There are now 49,792 men working in the mills, 30,582 women and
3,144 children. The first two figures indicate an increase during the
biennial period while the latter shows a decrease. The children em-ployed
in the mills are between the ages of fourteen and sixteen years
of age. The average high wage paid males is now $5.71 and the low
average is $2.12, these figures show an increase. The high average wage
paid females is $3.08 and the low average is $1.88 the former being a
decrease and the latter an increase. In 1924 at the close of the biennial
period, the average maximum wage for the males was $5.20 and the low
average was $2.00; for the females the high average was $3.25 and the
low average was $1.30. In 1916 the average high wages for the males
was $3.05 and the low average was 97c, while the high average for the
females was $1.50 and the low average was 85c.
The mills of Worth Carolina are owned, for the most part, by North
Carolinians and are operated, to a large extent by native labor. Suf-ficient
labor is generally to be found within the State and is available
to the extent needed. The ideal climatic conditions of the State, the
splendid water power and the nearest to the source of supply of raw
material all combine to make this the leading textile State. The aver-age
working day is ten hours and the majority of the mills run full
time, some operating both night and day. During the last few months
operations have been on a more reduced basis and in some instances
running time has been reduced to four and five days a week but the
feeling is optimistic and a material improvement is expected during
the coming months when price at which the new cotton may be pur-chased
is determined.
Cotton Mllls
The mills reporting on the amount of horse power used show a total
of 69,657 units. Two hundred eighty-three mills use electric power,
twenty-nine use steam and electric; twenty-one use steam; fourteen use
steam and water ; fifteen use electric and water ; seven use steam ; water
and electric; sixteen use water, three report the use of hydro-electric
power and three use oil to generate their power. Fifteen of the mills
failed to report on this particular item.
Statistical data relating to various details of the industry will be
found in the tabulations following:
