“Mr. Moditt gave statistics on the op-

the districts since the present tieup

‘ "Mr. Mpfiltt declared that in all the
factories only 125 practical mechanics
were at present employed.

away without answering.
“'In contrast to all the statistics

manufacturers who are standing out
against us now open their factories on

~ From Lam-on A Hubbard.
Lawson a Hubbardg‘the Boston man-
ufacturers, who are being sued by the
Associated Hat Manufacturers because
they reopened their factory as a union
establishment, have issued above their
firm signature the following state-
ment:
"in the last ten days articles have
appeared in the newspapers regarding
our position with the Mnnufacthrers
Association of New York. These artl
else have been most misleading to
those not properly informed. We are
glad to report the true condition. ‘
“First, we wish to any that you will
find our position perfectly honorable
and upright. We have not acted in
this mattei excepting at the advice
of some of the best men in our city
who understand the true state of of
fairs which were blousht about by
interests outside of New England. We
were drawn into this affair through
no fault of our own. We had coon
tracts with nearly three hundred firms
in New England. Their orders had
been taken a. number of months back
and we agreed to fill these orders for
(EOl‘Od us to suslwnd work on these
orders. We wrestled with this re
nest. This matter should have been
submitted to a board of arbitration.
which was not allowed
”Our factory had been closed thirty
days when we gave notice that we
could not ignore the contracts of our
customers and something would have
to be done. No attention was paid
to us by the association. We simply
had to do something to protect our»
selves and our customers.
"We did not nor do we now propose
to retire from a business which we
worked thirty years to build up. in
order to satisfy a few individuals out-
side of New England. who evidently
thought they saw an opportunityto
break in upon our manufacturing busi-
ness. For this reason we had to take
steps for our own protection. We wish
to any further that for niuuy years we
have conducted an honorable business
and proposed to continue to do so with-
out fear or favor to any association
or organisation. especially when it is
against the best interests of our cus-
tomers and friends to do so.
