Kingdom appears under G (Great Britain and Northern Ireland: GrandeBretagne et Irlande du Nord).
PART I
STATISTICS OF PRODUCTION,
CONSUMPTION AND TRADE
INTRODUCTORY NOTE
The following sections present statistical and other data on
production, consumption and trade for the textile industry in its
principal branches during the ten years 1925/26 to 1935/36. Most
of these data are taken from recognised international sources or
from reports published by official, semi-official, or private bodies
in various countries.1 The International Labour Office has brought
together and arranged the available data so as to present them as
far as possible in a lorm suitable for consultation. The amount of
rhaterial, however, is so abundant that it was necessary to set
certain limitations to the data to be presented. Thus, they are
limited in most cases to the ten-year period 1925/26-1935/36, as
the discussion in Volume I is confined. primarily to this period.
They are also limited to such statistics as lend themselves to international comparisons, and also to those branches of the textile
industry for which convenient national data or international summaries were available. Differences in units of measurement, units
of time (calendar year and fiscal year, for example) and in currencies
also affect comparisons, but it has not proved practicable to convert
the data to common bases.
Although the data on production, consumption and trade are
more complete than those for wages, hours and other conditions
of employment, given in Parts II to V of this volume, they are by
no means perfect. Apart from technical imperfections and differences in methods of compilation, there are many gaps in the
statistics. This is particularly true as regards questions of costs
of production, productivity of the workers, efficiency of machinery,
and similar problems.
1
The sources used in each case are indicated at the foot of the table. The
publications of the Joint Committee of Cotton Trade Organisations (Manchester)—notably Cotton Trade Statistics—are cited by courtesy of the
Committee, whose publications are compiled on behalf of firms engaged in
the British cotton industry and are intended for private circulation only.

sont exprimées en coton non égrené, on les a converties en coton égrené
A l'aide de coefficients spéciaux fournis généralement p a r les pays mêmes.
A défaut de coefficients officiels, on a employé le coefficient moyen d e :

JVoíe. — Les statistiques relatives à la production de la laine étant assez
incomplètes, les chiffres donnés dans le tableau ne sont dans bien des cas
que des estimations basées sur l'effectif du troupeau ovin. Ils ne se réfèrent
qu'à la laine des moutons, les laines mohair, le poil de chameau, etc., étant
exclus." Ils comprennent la laine tondue, la laine morte et, autant que
possible, la laine mélangée de rebut. Pour des raisons de comparabilité,
les données ont été calculées sur la base de la laine en suint.

Note. — Ce tableau se réfère à la production des fils de rayonne (soie artificielle) proprement dits, et ne comprend pas. sauf avis contraire, les autres
textiles artificiels, tels que la schappe artificielle (« staple fibre »), les
filés de déchets de rayonne, les crins artificiels, les lamés Visca, etc.. Pour
certains pays où les chiffres de production ne sont pas divulgués ou relevés,
le tableau donne des estimations plus ou moins approximatives.
On estime que la production mondiale des fibres textiles artificielles a
passé de 4.100 tonnes en 1929 à 74.000 tonnes environ en 1935.

(c) Estimation de la consommation de laine brute (sur la base de la laine
en suint), moins production des peignés; le rapport du poids en suint au
poids réel a été évalué à 105.
(d) "Volume des filés conditionnés à Sabadelle et Tarrasa; on estime qu'à
Sabadelle on procède au conditionnement de 70 à 75 pour cent de la production de peignés et filés de laine, et à Tarrasa de 60 à 70 pour cent également.
Sur la base des quantités disponibles de laine brute, on peut évaluer à environ
35 millions de livres la production annuelle de filés de laine en Espagne;
la production des peignés peut être estimée, pour les principaux centres de
fabrication, à 16 millions de livres par année.
(e) Les indices d'activité des machines indiquent pour 1933 une diminution de la production, en particulier des filés de laine peignée; nouvelle
diminution en 1934; relèvement brusque de la production en 1935. Les
chiffres entre parenthèses indiquent la totalité des filés destinés à la vente,
ainsi que les a chiffrés le recensement des fabriques, en 1925, 1927, 1929,
1931, 1933.

Section 12 : Productivité des machines de l'industrie cotonnière
des Etats-Unis, 1922-1935
Section 12: Machine productivity,
United States cotton manufacturing, 1922-1935
En ce qui concerne l'industrie
cotonnière des Etats-Unis, on dispose de données statistiques relatives, d'une part, à l'activité des
broches (exprimée en heures-broches) et, d'autre part, à la consommation de coton brut par les filatures ainsi qu'à la production de
tissus finis. L'étude de ces chiffres
permet d'en tirer des conclusions
provisoires sur l'évolution de la
productivité des machines textiles
au cours de ces dernières années,
pour ce qui est tout au moins de
l'industrie du coton — la plus
importante de toutes les branches
de la fabrication des textiles — et
des Etats-Unis, dont les entreprises traitent un quart environ du
total mondial du coton brut.
En présentant ici les résultats de
l'analyse à laquelle on a soumis ces
chiffres, il est nécessaire de faire à
leur sujet de nombreuses réserves.
Premièrement, lesdits résultats reflètent peut-être en partie les variations du titre moyen des filés ou du
type courant des tissus fabriqués 1.
Deuxièmement, les fluctuations d'année en année du rendement moyen
des machines peuvent être attribuées
— pour une part — aux variations
du degré d'utilisation des installations « marginales » qui, tour à tour,
sont admises dans le champ de la
production ou doivent le quitter,
suivant la direction que prend la
courbe de l'activité économique
For cotton manufacturing in the
United States, statistics are available
relating to active spindle hours on
the one hand, and to mill consumption of raw cotton and output of
finished cloth on the other. Study
of these figures permits the drawing
of provisional conclusions as to
recent developments in textile machine productivity, at least for this
industry—the most important of the
textile industries—and for this
country, whose mills process about
a fourth of the world's raw cotton.
In presenting the results obtained
from analysis of these figures, many
reservations must be made. First,
part of the observed results may
reflect fluctations in average yarn
count or cloth construction.1 Second,
the year to year fluctuations in
average machine efficiency may be
attributable in part to the movement of " marginal " plant and
equipment into and out of produc-

The possible error here is small.
Le risque d'erreur découlant de ce
fait est d'ailleurs faible. Pour toute la For the period and country as a whole,

ainsi que — pour une autre part —
aux changements concomitants de
l'habileté professionnelle moyenne
de la main-d'oeuvre employée 1 .
Troisièmement, il faut que certaines
conditions soient réalisées pour que
l'on puisse utiliser le rapport du
volume de la production de tissus
au nombre des heures-broches effectuées pour mesurer — ne serait-ce
que de façon approximative — la
productivité globale des machines de
l'industrie du c o t o n 2 . Quatrième-
tion during various phases of the
business cycle, together with associated changes in t h e average skill
of the labour force. 1 Third, certain
postulates must be admitted before
the ratio of cloth output to spindle
hours operated may be used as
even a rough measure of the overall
machine efficiency of cotton manufacturing establishments. 2 Fourth,
it is probably true t h a t the observed
changes in machine efficiency mainly
reflect the shift of plant and equip-
1
Là aussi le risque d'erreur paraît
être faible. En effet, les fluctuations du
rendement des machines auxquelles on
fait allusion ici ont une allure si constante que l'influence, indubitable pourtant, des mouvements cycliques de
l'économie s'en trouve masquée.
2
Voici les plus importantes de ces
conditions: 1) il doit y avoir une nette
différence entre les variations du rendement global ainsi déterminé et celles
de la productivité des installations de
filage, calculée en divisant le chiffre du
volume de coton brut consommé dans
les filatures par le nombre des heuresbroches effectuées; 2) la répartition des
filés de coton entre les entreprises de
tricotage et les tissages, si elle change,
doit le faire selon un rythme relativement lent; 3) le volume des importations et exportations de filés de coton
ne doit constituer qu'une proportion
très faible de la production nationale
totale de filés; 4) certaines fluctuations
occasionnelles mises à part, le total des
tissus de coton produits au cours d'un
exercice déterminé doit correspondre au
volume global des filés fabriqués pendant la même période; de même, tous
les filés deii flcoton fabriqués au
cours
/Puri gx6p i^ ^^^°rminé d^i"0!1^ être
transformés en tissus de coton pendant
la même période; 5) enfin, la condition
la plus importante de toutes est qu'il
doit y avoir des raisons étrangères aux
données statistiques de supposer que la
technique du tissage du coton s'est
améliorée quelque peu pendant la
période envisagée. Aucun de ces postulats ne semble s'éloigner beaucoup
de la réalité, pour l'industrie cotonnière
des Etats-Unis, de 1923 à 1933; dans.
leur ensemble, on peut considérer qu'ils
étaient réalisés, approximativement
tout au moins.
1
Again the possible error seems to
be small. The observed movements in
machine efficiency here in question
show a substantially continual trend,
so persistent as to obliterate the
undoubted operation of cyclical influences.
2
The major postulates are: (1) there
must be a significant difference between
the movement of overall efficiency thus
determined and that of spinning efficiency determined by dividing spindle
hours into volume of raw cotton mill
consumed; (2) the proportion of cotton
yarn going to knitting rather than
weaving mills, if changing at all, must
be changing at a relatively slow rate;
(3) the amounts of cotton yarn imported and exported must be in very
low ratio to total yarn domestically
produced; (4) giving due weight to
occasional fluctuations, all the cotton
cloth produced in a given year of
operation must represent yarn manufactured in that same period ; conversely, all the cotton yarn manufactured
in a given year of operation must be
transformed into cotton cloth during
that same period; (5) and most important, there must be reasons, external

tildi/
cotton weaving technology was improving somewhat. None of these postulates, for United States cotton manufacturing from 1923 to 1933, would
seem to be unreasonable; in their
totality they may be accepted as
approximately valid.

ment, il est probablement exact que
les changements constatés dans la
productivité des machines résultent
principalement du déplacement de
l'équipement industriel des anciens
centres de production de la Nouvelle-Angleterre vers les localités
industrielles de création récente des
E t a t s du sud, et ne sont dus que
subsidiairement à l'introduction de
machines d'invention nouvelle dans
les centres existants 1 .
Compte tenu de ces réserves
nécessaires, on peut estimer, grosso
modo, que le rendement des broches
à coton utilisées dans les filatures des
Etats-Unis a augmenté de façon
constante, entre 1923 et 1935, à
concurrence de 1 pour cent environ
par année et, entre 1923 et 1929 plus
particulièrement, suivant un rythme
à peu près pareil. Bien que les chiffres
que l'on a établis indiquent une
chute de la productivité par broche
au cours de deux années différentes,
un mouvement ascendant général ne
se manifeste pas moins de façon non
équivoque.
On peut estimer en outre, avec
beaucoup moins de certitude toutefois, que, entre 1925 et 1933, la
productivité globale de l'équipement
de l'industrie cotonnière des E t a t s 1
Ce déplacement de la production
de la Nouvelle-Angleterre vers le sud
s'est effectué principalement par la
désaffectation des installations de vieux
modèle de la région textile « ancienne »
et l'introduction de machines modernes
dans la région de la production « nouvelle ». Dans une certaine mesure, toutefois, des machines installées ont été
réellement transférées d'une zone à
l'autre. Ce double mouvement de
retrait des installations anciennes et
d'introduction de machines nouvelles
a eu pour effet de relever le niveau
national moyen du rendement, indépendamment de l'influence que pouvait exercer le développement constant de l'utilisation des machines ou
des techniques de fabrication d'invention nouvelle.
ment from old New England centres
to " young " mill villages in the South,
and only secondarily the introduction of newly-invented machines
into existing mills. 1
Having due regard for the necessary reservations, it may be estimated, roughly, t h a t the mechanical
efficiency of cotton spindles oper.ating in United States mills was
steadily increasing, between 1923
and 1935, at an approximate rate of
1 per cent, yearly, and between 1923
and 1929, in particular, at a rate not
essentially different. Although the
figures indicate a fall in spindle
productivity in two different years,
the general upward trend is unequivocal.
W i t h much less confidence in the
result, it may be further estimated
t h a t between 1925 and 1933 the
overall efficiency of cotton manufacturing equipment operating in
1
In the movement from New
England to the South, the larger part
of the shift has taken the form of
retiring obsolete equipment in the
" old " textile area and of introducing
new equipment in the " young " one.
To some extent, however, machinery
in place has been actually transplanted.
This retirement of obsolescent equipment together with the introduction
of new machinery, has operated to
raise the average national level of
efficiency independently of the growing
use of newly-invented machines or
newly-devised manufacturing techniques.

Unis augmenta d'environ 1,5 pour
cent par année 1. Si les postulats sur
lesquels cette analyse est basée sont
acceptables, il s'ensuit que l'augmentation constatée doit être attribuée à l'amélioration du rendement
moyen et des broches et des métiers
à tisser.
Les chiffres sur lesquels ces conclusions sont fondées ont été réunis dans

postulates upon which this analysis

follow that the rise was attributable

NOTE SUR LES CONTINGENTS
D'EXPORTATION DES AUTRES
PRODUITS TEXTILES
NOTE ON EXPORT QUOTAS
OF OTHER TEXTILE
PRODUCTS
On pourrait multiplier indéfiniment les exemples de contingents
élevés d'exportation d'articles textiles ; voici, pour les dernières
années, quelques chiffres typiques:
En ce qui concerne le jute, l'Inde
exporte un volume de filés, de
tissus et de sacs qui correspond à
près de 85 pour cent de la consommation totale de jute brut par son
industrie textile; le Royaume-Uni
envoie à ses marchés d'outre-mer
près d'un tiers des tissus de jute
qu'il fabrique, et plus de 7 pour
cent de ses filés.
Quant aux tissus de lin ou de
chanvre, les données dont on dispose
indiquent que le Royaume-Uni vend
à l'étranger près de 95 pour cent de
sa production de toiles à voiles
légères et lourdes et plus de 40 pour
cent de l'ensemble des autres produits du lin et du chanvre.
Pour ce qui est des tricots, enfin,
l'Allemagne exporte approximativement un cinquième de sa production
totale calculée en valeur, et le
Royaume-Uni plus d'un quart en
quantité de ses gants tricotés *.
Examples of high export quotas
in the field of textile manufactures
might be multiplied indefinitely; a
few representative figures for recent
years are noted here:
In the case of jute, India exports
a volume of yarn, cloth, and bags
amounting to about 85 per cent, of
its total mill consumption of raw
jute; the United Kingdom ships
overseas close to a third of its jute
piece goods, and more than 7 per
cent, of its yarn.
In linen and hemp piece goods,
available data indicate that the
United Kingdom sells abroad close
to 95 per cent, of its sailcloth and
heavy canvas output, and over
40 per cent, of all other linen and
hemp materials taken together.
As regards knit goods, finally,
Germany exports approximately a
fifth of the value of its total production, the United Kingdom over
a fourth by quantity in the case
of knitted gloves.1

NOTES AU TABLEAU 2
(a) Les marges indiquées ici représentent l'écart entre les droits (ad valorem
ou suivant le volume) qui frappaient à la date spécifiée d'une part les
marchandises britanniques et d'autre part les produits étrangers. Lorsque
l'on indique deux chiffres pour la même date, ces chiffres représentent l'écart
entre la plus large et la plus étroite des marges que laissaient les droits applicables aux diverses classes de filés ou de tissus.
(b) Marge ad valorem ; sinon, marge de % à % anna par livre suivant le
tarif spécifique appliqué.
(c) Plus marges diverses par livre.
(d) Plus 2 cents par livre, contre 1 cent en 1932.
(e) Marges afférentes aux articles valant au maximum 1 shilling 3 pence
par yard; aucune préférence pour les articles valant plus de 1 shilling 3 pence
par yard.
(/) Ou 3 pence par yard; cette dernière marge égale le droit (frappant
les produits non britanniques seulement) qui est perçu lorsqu'il a un rendement meilleur que le tarif ad valorem.
(g) Les marges de préférence sont égales à la différence entre le tarif
relatif aux produits britanniques et le tarif général. De plus, en 1932 tous les
produits importés, mais en 1935 les produits non britanniques seulement,
étaient soumis à un droit d'accise de 3 pour cent. Les droits frappant les
produits britanniques sont réduits de 10 pour cent si les envois sont faits
directement à destination des ports canadiens.

la colonne des unités, avec mention de l'unité selon laquelle la plus grande
partie de la consommation a été recensée.
(i>) Production moins exportations plus importations.
(c) Importations seulement; production intérieure non déterminée,
négligeable ou nulle.

LABOUR STATISTICS
INTRODUCTORY NOTE
The following tables form a summary of available statistics on
numbers engaged, employment and unemployment, wages and
hours of work in the textile industry in the principal textile producing countries. Most of the data are drawn from official sources ;
in some cases they come from private sources accepted as
authorities in the country in question.1
While the data available are numerous, the many differences
in the methods of compiling and presenting the data make it
extremely difficult to compare them, not only as between countries,
but even on the different subjects in the same country. In particular it should be remembered that the definition and delimitation
of the different branches of the textile industry may differ for the
various statistical series even though the terminology adopted is
the same.
In spite of the various reservations attaching to these figures,
the more important of which will be mentioned below, the statistics
nevertheless provide useful information on several points and the
general conclusions to be drawn from them have been set forth
as clearly as possible in Volume I of the Report.
PART II. — PERSONS OCCUPIED
This part of the Appendix presents statistical data on persons
gainfully occupied or engaged in the textile industries in twenty-two
countries. The most general source of information on this subject
1
See also: Year-Book of Labour Statistics,
1934-35, Vol. I I ; International Labour Review.
1935-36; I.L.O.Y ear-Book.
— 134 —
is the census of population which is taken in most countries
usually at decennial intervals, in which persons are classified
according to the industry in which they are usually employed
and according to the occupation they normally follow. For some
countries, information is also available as to the number of workers
employed in textile factories, as obtained by censuses of production
or establishments or from returns of factory inspectors. These
figures, however, are usually limited to factories above a certain
size or employing mechanical power or having an output above a
certain value; and they cover only persons actually employed at
the date of the return, to the exclusion of persons unemployed.
For an international survey, the national population censuses
form the most complete and satisfactory source. Even where
based on population censuses, such data are not exactly comparable,
since the methods of classification and grouping of the data differ
considerably from country to country. In the tables presented
here an attempt has been made, so far as the sources permit, to
select and arrange the national data so as to cover as far as possible
the same categories of workers in accordance with the definition
of industry used in this Report. With reference to the inclusion
of the ancillary textile industries in the textile group, the tables
indicate in most cases the list of such industries included in the
group of "other " textiles, that is, other than cotton, wool, silk,
rayon, flax, hemp and jute.
The tables showing the grouping of persons engaged in the textile
industries according to industrial status, as employers, salaried
employees and workers, show many divergencies in the practice
oi different countries. In many countries this type of classification
is not attempted. In others, special conditions obtain or special
definitions are applied which impair the comparability of the
statistics.
The data on the relative proportion of female workers are affected
by such points as the treatment of home workers and family
assistants, as well as the relative preponderance of several branches
of the industry, some of which have larger proportions of women
workers than others.
Finally, a table is given showing the number of young persons
of different ages employed in textiles. These data are limited to
relatively few countries. Their comparability is impaired by the
lack of uniformity in the age groupings presented in the original
sources.
— 135 —
PART III. — UNEMPLOYMENT AND EMPLOYMENT
(a) Unemployment
The unemployment statistics available in the various countries
are drawn from very different sources, the more important of which
are the following: (a) compulsory insurance statistics; (b) voluntary
insurance statistics; (c) trade union fund statistics; (d) trade union
returns ; (e) employment exchange statistics.
The principal value of these statistics is in indicating the fluctuations over periods of time, and only between such movements are
comparisons possible; the various series are not equally sensitive
to changes on the labour market and an equal change in two series
does not necessarily represent a corresponding change in the
countries concerned. Moreover, changes in legislation, in administrative practice, in the frequency of registration of the unemployed,
in the amount of short time worked and in " normal " hours often
result in a decrease (or increase) in the recorded level of unemployment which does not correspond to changes in employment.
Percentages are, however, more reliable than absolute numbers as
measures of changes in the level of unemployment. If not otherwise stated, the figures relate to persons recorded as " wholly
unemployed " and in most cases fall short of the reality. Where
available, figures of " partial unemployment " are also given, but
they are uncertain, incomplete and based on different definitions;
thus here, too, international comparisons are not possible.
(b) Employment
The series in the following tables are with one exception based
on employers' returns and indicate changes in the number of
workers employed or hours worked in a sample of mainly industrial
establishments; these statistics do not furnish information on the
absolute extent of employment, and index numbers only are
reproduced here; one series is based on returns of employed members
in a compulsory unemployment insurance scheme which covers the
great majority of the working population; absolute figures are
therefore given as well as index numbers.
In the great majority of cases the figures relate to the workers
recorded as in employment at a certain date, irrespective of the
number of hours worked per day and per worker. In some cases,
— 136 —
however, the statistics relate to the number of hours worked
during a certain period of time, and in this case they record t h e
fluctuations in the volume of employment.
PART IV. — AVERAGE W A G E S AND ACTUAL HOURS OF W O R K
(a) Statistics of Average Wages per Worker
These data can be further subdivided according as they relate to
what are known as rates, earnings, or insured wages.
The data relating to rates are usually derived from conditions
laid down in collective agreements or individual contracts, decisions
of arbitration or other courts, legal provisions and, in some cases,
conditions fixed unilaterally by employers or wages offered at the
employment exchanges. In a general way they express a theoretical norm applicable or applied to the workers engaged in the
occupation in question to a degree which varies from one case to
another, so t h a t the figures may be more or less representative.
In general they refer exclusively to normal hours ol work, but may
also include certain supplementary forms of remuneration (costof-living bonuses, allowances for tools, etc.). In most cases they
relate to time workers only, but sometimes data are available for
piece workers in the form of percentage increases or decreases on
the basic rates.
It is always difficult to determine how far the data concerning
rates are representative of the wages actually paid in the occupations in question. At all events it is necessary to point out
t h a t the occupations for which rates are recorded comprise only a
proportion of the workers in the industry, and that the categories
of workers left out of account often include the less well paid.
These data can, however, serve as an indication of the movement of wages. Statistics of wage rates sometimes also provide
data on normal hours of work in the occupations to which they
relate.
The data relating to earnings are derived from the payrolls of
a certain number of representative undertakings; they give the
average wages actually paid (including as a rule all bonuses, allowances, etc.) to workers in the branch of industry in question,
without usually making a distinction between time workers and
— 137 —
piece workers, and they refer generally to earnings for hours actually
worked.
There are two sets of statistics of this kind: (1) periodical
statistics compiled regularly for the month, quarter or year, which
usually give only fairly condensed data such as average earnings
per hour, or more rarely per week, for all workers in the branch,
and distinguish at most between men and women and occasionally
between various degrees of skill; (2) statistics obtained from special
enquiries carried out at irregular intervals or only once every few
years, which give more detailed information on the various bonuses
and allowances, sometimes also on social insurance contributions,
and usually distinguish between the different occupations and
sometimes between time work, piece work, etc.
The degree to which these statistics are representative is, however,
not precisely known. The undertakings selected for making the
returns are as a rule of a certain size and stability, and their
workers are sometimes better paid than those in other undertakings.
Consequently the data may tend to be somewhat too high, but
the fluctuations they show from year to year may be regarded
as representative.
The data relating to insured wages are derived from the records
required for the purposes of compulsory social insurance schemes,
as a rule the declarations made by employers for the fixing of
their contributions. In some cases employers declare the total
wages paid and the total number of days worked, from which the
average wage per day can be calculated. In other cases they
declare the number of workers employed whose wages fall into
certain wage classes. In this case the average wage per worker
may be theoretically calculated on thè assumption that the wages
paid in the different wage classes fall on the average at the middle
of the range for that class.
These insurance statistics usually cover nearly all workers and
are thus much wider in scope than the two series mentioned above.
In particular, they comprise as a rule the less well paid workers,
who are sometimes omitted from the other statistics. On the other
hand, the insurance schemes in force generally fix a maximum above
which wages are not taken into account for insurance purposes and
therefore cease to come into the statistics. Taken altogether, these
circumstances may mean that the averages obtained will usually
be somewhat lower than those shown by other kinds of data.
— 138 —
(b) Statistics of Hours Worked 1
These data are often obtained from the same returns as those
used for the data relating to earnings and form, so to speak, part
of the same periodical statistics or special enquiries. In some cases
data as to hours are obtained either separately or in connection
with employment statistics. Here too, however, they are based on
returns made by certain representative establishments. In any
case the observations made above as to the more or less representative character of the statistics of earnings apply in a general way
to the statistics of hours worked.
The data show either the average number of hours worked per
worker, or the percentage of workers working hours within a
certain range of time, or both. The time unit—the day, the week
or the month—varies according to circumstances. For several
reasons, in particular owing to the Saturday half-holiday, the
varying number of days in the different months, and the labour
turnover during the period, it is not possible to transform the series
directly from one time unit to another. Thus, it may not be
concluded from an average working day of seven hours that the
average working week is forty-two hours, or vice versa.
PART V. — TOTAL WAGES AND VALUE OF OUTPUT
The principal sources used here for estimating the total wages
(and salaries) paid to all workers (and salaried employees) in the
branches of industry considered are the censuses of production
and, in some cases, social insurance statistics.1
The production statistics (periodical or occasional censuses)
usually cover the great majority of the undertakings considered,
except for small undertakings, which are in most cases excluded
(the limit for exclusion varies from one country to another). The
absolute figures of total wages and salaries obtained from these
statistics cannot, therefore, be taken as an absolutely complete and
comparable measure of the total income from work of all workers
in the branch of industry. On the other hand, the fluctuations
from year to year (shown by index numbers) may be regarded as
more or less representative.
1
For further details of these statistics, see International Labour Review,
Vol. XXXIV, No. 3, Sept. 1936, " Statistics of Total Wages and Salaries ".
— 139 —
As regards the social insurance statistics, these show the total
wages paid in the same way as they show the average wages per
worker. As in the production statistics, so too in the insurance
statistics, some undertakings, and as a rule the smallest, may be
omitted since they are not liable to insurance. Further, the
maximum limit usually fixed for the insured wage means that
part or all of the better paid workers' wages is left out of account.
Here, too, the absolute figures must be treated as subject to reservation, while their fluctuations from year to year may be regarded
as more or less representative.

Ce tableau se rapporte aux taux de salaires au temps. La grande majorité des tisseurs et de nombreux
ouvriers d'autres professions sont payés aux pièces; par conséquent les chiffres ci-dessus ne reflètent pas
les gains pour le travail aux pièces. Pour des détails sur les gains moyens, voir tableaux pages 190 à 192.—

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
OF THE
TRIPARTITE TECHNICAL CONFERENCE
ON THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY
WASHINGTON, D.C.
(United States of America)
2-17 April 1937
INTRODUCTION
The Tripartite Technical Conference on the Textile Industry was
organised as the result of a resolution submitted to the Twentieth
Session of the International Labour Conference by Mr. Winant and
Miss Miller, United States Government Delegates.
This resolution is as follows:
The Conference, taking into consideration:
(1) that there is a general desire for the improvement of
the wages, hours and other working conditions of textile
workers throughout the world;
(2) that, having regard to the varying standards of hours,
wages and working conditions in different countries, such
improvement requires the co-operation of the countries
concerned, and that the International Labour Organisation
provides the appropriate means of attaining agreement on
equitable standards of hours, wages and working conditions;
(3) that the establishment of such equitable standards can
only be achieved by discussion between the representatives of
Governments, employers' and workers' organisations in the
various countries:
decides to request the Governing Body to convene a tripartite
conference which would include the necessary technical and
expert assistance from textile-producing countries. It would
be the purpose of this conference to consider how the work
already undertaken by the International Labour Organisation
in connection with the improvement of conditions in the
textile industry can best be advanced and to take into account
all those aspects of the textile industry, which, directly or
indirectly, may have a bearing on the improvement of social
conditions in that industry.
— 220 —
The Governing Body of the International Labour Office examined
this resolution at its Seventy-seventh Session (November 1936) and
decided to convene the proposed tripartite conference at Washington as the result of a suggestion of the President of the United
States.
The following letter communicating the Agenda of the Conference
was addressed to the Governments of the Members of the Organisation:
Geneva, 23 December 1936.
Sir,
I have the honour to inform you that, at its Seventy-seventh Session
(November 1936), the Governing Body of the International Labour Office
considered the steps to be taken to give effect to a resolution adopted
by the International Labour Conference at its Twentieth Session (June
1936), in which the Governing Body was requested to convene a Tripartite
Conference to consider problems connected with the textile industry.
On this occasion the representative of the Government of the United
States of America conveyed to the Governing Body, on behalf of the
President of the United States, an invitation to convene the proposed
Conference at Washington.
The Governing Body warmly welcomed this invitation and instructed
the Office to convene the proposed Conference at Washington, the
object of which it defined in the following resolution:
" The Governing Body decides to invite the Governments of all
countries in which textile production forms an important part of
their national economy to send delegates and technical advisers
familiar with the problems of the textile industry to take part in a
tripartite Conference to consider all those aspects of the industry
which directly or indirectly may have a bearing on the improvement
of social conditions in the industry.
" The Governing Body warmly welcomes the invitation of the
President of the United States of America to convene this Conference
in Washington and instructs the Director to get into touch with
the United States Government with a view to making the necessary
arrangements for the meetings for the first days of April next, and
to report progress at its next session.
" The Governing Body decides that it shall be represented at the
said Conference by two members of each group."
Further details are given below as to the organisation and programme
of work of the -Conference.
Date and Place: The Technical Tripartite Conference will open at
Washington on 2 April 1937. The exact place at which the Conference
will take place will be conveyed to you in a subsequent communication.
Agenda: The Agenda comprises the examination of all those aspects
of the textile industry which directly or indirectly may have a bearing
on the improvement of social conditions in that industry.
In order that you may be in a position to appreciate the object and
scope of the Conference I am communicating to you herewith an extract
from the note submitted by the Office to the Governing Body, which
— 221 —
formed the basis on which the Governing Body took its decision. I am
also sending you extracts concerning the object and scope of the Conference from the draft minutes of the Seventy-seventh Session of the
Governing Body, which must be regarded as provisional until they have
teen formally approved at the Seventy-eighth Session (February 1937).
Composition: The Conference will be composed of delegations of
countries in which textile production forms an important part of their
national economy. It will be for the Governments to decide whether
they consider their country as one in which textile production forms an
important part of the national economy.
Delegations: It was decided that each Government taking part in
the Conference would be requested to appoint three representatives,
namely, a Government representative, a representative of the employers
and a representative of the workers ; these three representatives may be
accompanied by advisers who will have the right to speak but not to
vote. The Governing Body instructed the Office to call the attention
of the Governments to the importance of sending delegations to the
Conference composed in such a way as to provide the fullest possible
representation of the various branches of the textile industry in their
country.
It was also decided that the Governing Body would be represented
at the Conference by six of its members, namely, two from each group.
Expenses: As in the case of previous preparatory meetings which
have been held under the auspices of the International Labour Office
it was agreed that the travelling expenses and subsistence allowances
of the representatives of each country at the proposed Conference, as
well as those of their advisers, would be borne by the respective Governments.
Preparation: The International Labour Office was instructed to
prepare, in connection with the Agenda of the Conference, a report to
serve as a basis for the discussions. This report will be sent as soon as
possible to the countries taking part in the Conference.
It is under these conditions that I have the honour to request your
Government, if it considers that textile production forms an important
part of the national economy of your country, to appoint representatives
to take part in the Technical Tripartite Conference on the textile
industry.
I shall be glad if you will be good enough to inform me at your earliest
convenience whether the Office can count on the participation of your
country in the Conference, and if so, to furnish me in due course with
the names of the persons of whom your delegation will be composed.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) HAROLD BUTLER,
Director.

REPORTS ADOPTED BY THE CONFERENCE
R E P O R T ON ECONOMIC PROBLEMS
During the general discussion at the first ten plenary sessions
of the Tripartite Technical Conference on the Textile Industry,
many references were made to the economic and social problems
of the industry. At the same time, many representatives of the
three interests involved—Governments, employers and workers—•
considered that although the economic and social aspects of the
problem were closely interrelated, it would be desirable to discuss
them separately.
In view of this the Selection Committee in its third Report
submitted to the plenary session on Thursday morning, 8 April 1937,
recommended to the Conference to go into a Committee, including
all the members of the Conference, with a view to examining the
economic problems of the textile industry.
The Selection Committee further recommended t h a t the following
agenda, based on the discussions which had taken place in plenary
session on.the Report prepared by the International Labour Office,
be adopted as a basis of discussion for the examination of the
economic problems.
1.
Consumption
(A)
Consumption needs:
(1) Agricultural population.
(2) Industrial population.
(B)
Consumption expansion:
(1) By increasing purchasing power.
(2) By reducing prices — Is price reduction inconsistent with
higher wages or better standards ?
(3) By the effect of changing fashions and the shifting of
consumption.
— 243 —
II.
Production ani International Trade
(A) Existing situation :
(1) Changing distribution.
(2) Restriction of production
(a) By internal action for reducing excess capacity or
limiting output;
(b) By restriction on international trade (tariff quotas;
gentlemen's agreements, etc.);
(c) Exchange restrictions ;
(d) Raw materials.
(3) Export subsidies, direct and indirect.
(B) Remedial possibilities :
(1) Conditions of " fair competition " as an aid for lowering
barriers.
(2) International agreements as means toward adjusting
production and consumption of different textile products.
(3) Possibility of improving international organisation
dealing with above problems.
This recommendation was adopted by the Conference.
Discussion of its economic agenda occupied the General Committee
at three sittings, the morning and afternoon of 9 April and the
morning of 10 April.
Mr. Winant, President of the Conference, acted as chairman of
the Committee which appointed a Drafting Committee composed
as follows:
For Government members:
For the Employer members:
For the Worker members:
Mr. WISSELINK.
Mr. ASHURST.
Mr. SEGIER.
It was decided that the Government member of the Drafting
Committee should act as reporter.
The Committee was assisted by the following experts: Messrs.
LORWIN, MORTISHED and W U B N I G .
The following persons acted
as secretaries: French—Messrs. GALLOIS and MILHAUD; English—
Messrs. EVANS and
WUBNIG.
It was decided that the agenda submitted by the Selection Committee
in its third report should constitute the basis of the Committee's
discussion of the economic problems of the textile industry.
From what has been said above, it is evident t h a t any attempt
to present the discussion of economic problems in the General
Committee independently of the discussion of the same problems
— 244 —
at the plenary sessions of the Conference, would be more or less
artificial. In the present Report, therefore, the effort has been
made to bring together the points raised and the suggestions made,
as regards economic problems, before both the Committee and the
Conference. Verbatim reports of the individual speeches made
at the plenary sessions of the Conference will be found in the
stenographic record of the proceedings. Summaries of the individual speeches made before the Committee will be found in the
minutes of the Committee.
It is believed expedient therefore to limit the content of this
Report to a general synthesis of outstanding points of view and of
major proposals in their bearing upon the economic factors of the
textile industry. While aiming to give as clear a picture as
possible of the differences of view expressed, this Report seeks to
bring out the points of agreement—and what may be regarded
as the common trend of the discussion.
I
There was no question in the Conference or in the General
Committee that the end of their deliberations was the improvement
of economic and social conditions in the textile industry on a world
scale. Various members of the General Committee stressed the
fact that the restoration of a healthy condition in the textile
industry is closely related to economic improvement in general
and to the progressive rise of living standards in all countries. It
was underlined that the chief reason for the slow increase in the
consumption of textiles during the past decade or so has been the
insufficiency of income of the mass of the people. The conclusion
was drawn from this that in order to expand the consumption of
textile products it is necessary to increase mass purchasing power
and to find ways and means of raising standards of living.
It was clearly brought out in the course of this discussion that
the elasticity of consumption for textile products is considerable in
most countries. The speakers before both the Conference and the
Committee were practically unanimous in maintaining that agricultural populations the world over were not consuming textile
products at a level sufficient to satisfy the requirements of a
reasonable standard of living. It was emphasised in this connection
that if the agricultural populations in all countries were put in a
more favourable economic position, their consumption of textile
— 245 —
products, particularly of cotton goods, would expand to dimensions
offering considerable possibilities for improving the present social
conditions prevailing in the textile manufacturing industry on the
basis of its present productive capacity. Specific data indicating
the great margin between actual consumption of textile products
and the possible consumption if more adequate standards of
living could be achieved were offered as regards agricultural populations in various countries. It was said, for instance, that if the
consumption of cotton cloth per head of the population in China
were increased even moderately, considerable expansion in the
textile industry would follow. It was stated by one of the Indian
delegates t h a t the per capita consumption of textile products in
India is at present only 16.4 yards per year, but t h a t it would
require several times as many yards a year for a man to be adequately clothed in that country. Statements along similar lines were
advanced in respect to Poland, Mexico, and other countries.
Statistical evidence was also brought forward illustrating how
increased farmer's income in recent years had, in the United States
at least, expanded the consumption of textile products in rural
areas.
The discussion made it clear further that consumption of textile
products by industrial workers was also at unsatisfactorily low levels
and that even in some of the most advanced industrial countries
large elements of the population are still below not only what may
be regarded as an adequate minimum of consumption of textiles
but also far below the levels of consumption already attained by
some of the better paid groups of the industrial population. It was
furthermore the consensus of opinion that if industrial workers
were enabled to consume more textile goods, whether by higher
incomes, lower prices or both, they would do so quickly and in
large measure. Certain data were brought forward illustrating
that the consumption of textile goods among low-income industrial
workers in the United States expands more rapidly than income.
Family budget studies made in a number of American cities,
summaries of which were circulated to the Committee, were
referred to as showing t h a t as family incomes rise from $1,000 to
$2,700 a year, the total dollar expenditures on clothing increase in
some cities as much as sevenfold. It was stated that if the wages
of unskilled workers in New York City were to be raised to the
present level of skilled workers, it would result in a threefold
increase in expenditure for clothing. More generally, the data
submitted show t h a t without any change in industrial demand
— 246 —
for cotton textiles over 1929, the total consumption of cotton in
the United States would be 25 per cent, greater to-day than in that
year if wage earners and farm communities consumed cotton
products in quantities equal to those required to maintain a level
of living adequate to ensure health and social decency. In other
words, the actual consumption of raw cotton in the United States
in 1929 was 3,423,000,000 pounds, while the potential consumption
on the social basis indicated would be 4,281,000,000 pounds—that
is, a potential per capita consumption of 34 pounds as against an
actual per capita consumption in 1929 of 27.7 pounds. Taking
the world as a whole, it was indicated that if cotton textile consumption increased to the average per capita consumption of the present
population of Western Europe it would call for approximately forty
million bales of cotton a year for piece goods alone instead of the
present consumption of twenty-six million bales to cover all uses.
II
The speakers before the Conference and the Committee were
agreed that a material increase in mass purchasing power which
would raise consumption levels would help to remove many of
the obstacles now in the way of improving social conditions in the
textile manufacturing industry. At the same time, several of the
speakers pointed out that where demand was elastic, as in the case
of textile goods, consumption might be discouraged by ill-considered
increases in the cost of production leading to an advance in sales
prices.
Some divergencies of opinion, and of emphasis, appeared in the
formulation of methods for expanding purchasing power. Workers'
delegates maintained that the best formula for expanding purchasing
power was to raise wages and increase labour earnings. They
argued that wages were only a small share of the total costs of
production in textile manufacturing, so that the resulting cost
increases, if any, would be moderate. They further argued that
the limits of improved efficiency and productivity in textile manufacturing were far from reached, so that considerable possibilities
still remained for raising wages without advancing manufacturing
costs. At the same time, the workers' spokesmen maintained that
a general levelling up of wages would so augment the consumption
of textile goods the world over as to permit manufacturers to benefit
from the economies of large-scale production, making full use of the
— 247 —
productive facilities now idle because of insufficient demand. It
was further stated in this connection that inasmuch as the textile
workers numbering some 14 million throughout the world formed
a large part of the working population in most countries, an increase
of their earnings would in itself mean an enlargement of purchasing
power, a large part of which would necessarily go into textile
consumption. Furthermore, part of this purchasing power would
go towards the purchasing of other articles of consumption, which
would in turn mean increased business activity and larger earnings
on the part of workers in other industries who in their turn would
be enabled to spend more money on textiles.
The majority of the employers' spokesmen were of the opinion
that the most appropriate method of enlarging purchasmg power
was to lower the sales prices of textile goods. They contended
that measures such as a shorter working week, with maintained
weekly earnings, would operate to force production costs upward
and should be avoided. In this connection stress was laid both
on the substantial ratio of labour costs to total production cost, and
on the pyramiding of higher costs from one manufacturing process
to the next. The appropriate means for lowering prices, it was
suggested, ran along the lines of greater efficiency in the production
of raw materials and in the manufacturing and marketing of
semi-finished and finished products. It was particularly emphasised
by many of the employers' delegates and advisers that a large part
of the world's total output of textile goods went toward oversea
and colonial countries where income levels were very low and where
consumers were in no position to sustain the effects of increases in
the prices of textile goods. On the other hand, the employers'
representatives of the United States pointed to the successful
operation of the 40-hour week in the textile industry under conditions increasing the purchasing power of the masses.
Varying points of view on how best to increase purchasing
power were put forward by Government delegates and advisers.
Spokesmen for several countries producing raw materials were of
the opinion that the most efficacious method of immediately
enlarging the consumption of textile goods was to obtain improved
world market prices for primary commodities. It was emphasised
that the agricultural populations, especially in the Far East, in
Africa, and in Latin America, were producers of primary products
such as sugar, wheat, cocoa, tea, coffee, textile fibres and rubber,
and that these populations must get better prices for what they
produce if they are to be in a position to spend more for textile
— 248 —
products. While emphasising this point, members of the Committee realised that an indefinite rise in raw material prices might
create serious problems in turn and that the problem is one of
price relationship, of a proper adjustment between agricultural
and industrial prices. The measures taken to give the agricultural
populations a better return for their products must be so guided as
to promote a balanced growth of industrial activity in general.
Representatives of other Governments pointed out that in their
experience the greatest stimulus to the consumption of textile
goods came from an advance in the general tempo of industrial
activity arising out of an increase in the purchasing power at the
disposal of low-income groups. Representatives of still other
countries emphasised that where the national welfare of the textile
industry depended largely on exports to oversea and colonial
markets, it was imperative to preserve purchasing power of lowincome consumers by avoiding all measures which would burden
textile manufacturing with substantially higher costs of production,
especially as the effects of an improved standard of living in these
countries upon textile consumption would take many years to make
themselves felt.
In this connection the members of the Committee were led to
consider the question whether price reductions were inconsistent
with higher wages and better working standards. With some
exceptions, it was recognised that price reductions were not
necessarily and in all circumstances inconsistent with higher wages
and improved working standards. The differences of opinion which
arose on this point concerned rather the question of whether or
not the conditions were present for reconciling the interests of the
workers in higher wages which would permit reasonable standards
of living with the interests of employers in lower prices which
would encourage maximum sales. It was also recognised, for
example, that improvement in labour efficiency, where such
improvement was possible, would go a long way toward offsetting
the price-raising effects of higher labour standards. In connection
with this point, special references were made to the increase in
labour and machine productivity which had taken place since the
war in various branches of the industry and in various countries.
In mills where industrial techniques represented the best technical
practice in each year, there was more than a 33 1/s per cent, decrease
in the number of man-hours required to produce a given amount
of cotton textiles in the United States between 1910 and 1936.
In Shanghai cotton mills, the average output per weaver increased
— 249 —
over 46 per cent, between 1933 and 1935. The production of jute
yarn in England per operative had increased from 110.7 cwt. in
1934 to 148 cwt. in 1935; in Poland, it was said, one cotton textile
operative before the war operated two looms and the time lost was
approximately 25 to 35 per cent, of the working day; since the
war, each operative operates four looms and the time lost is only
20 per cent. In the same country the number of workers employed
on one thousand spindles before the war was between 11 and 13,
whereas now it has been reduced to between five and eight. Some
speakers, however, contended that the increase in labour efficiency
was in part due to improved raw materials and better preparatory
processes.
But while a number of delegates argued that the possibilities
of improving efficiency were considerable, others, chiefly the employer spokesmen, maintained that the actual possibilities were
less extensive. An increase in efficiency in 'some countries was
said to be difficult owing to the contraction of export markets as
a result of changes in the distribution of textile manufacturing
and of increased international competition. In the view of other
speakers, however, the textile manufacturing industry in manycountries was far from using the best available equipment or the
most effective managerial methods. This affected workers' wages
adversely because the more efficient plants did not always increase
wages as plant efficiency increased, and hence the inefficient plants
often dominated the fixing of wages and working conditions.
While the workers' spokesmen stressed the idea that enlarged
purchasing power resulting in an expanding consumption of textiles
would help to lower prices, the majority of the employers' spokesmen
were inclined to stress the curtailed employment and diminished
purchasing power which might result from further rationalisation
in textile manufacturing. It was generally admitted that enlarged
sales of textile goods would go a long way toward permitting a
simultaneous raising of wages and lowering of prices. What,
however, would be the consequences of higher wages in enlarging
or expanding the textile market ? On the one hand, it was argued
that higher textile wages would further contract export markets
in agricultural countries and might shift consumption to other
commodities. On the other hand, it was said that higher wages,
by stimulating home demand, would permit larger output with all
the attendant economies in costs. The experience of- certain
countries was cited as regards the increases in labour, costs and
sales prices which might be expected to result from given increases
— 250 —
in wages. It was realised that the results found in practice were
related to concomitant increase in productivity, expansion of output
and enlargement of textile markets.
Considerable evidence was brought forward as to the effects of
changes in fashion and in social customs upon the consumption
of textile goods as a whole and as to the effects of shifts in consumption as among different textile fibres. With regard to the first
question, attention was drawn to the habit of wearing smaller
quantities of clothing, particularly of underclothing, and to the
effects which the heating of homes and offices has upon the use
of clothing. Similarly, attention was drawn to the substitution
of paper for textile fibres as the raw material for napkins, towels,
handkerchiefs, etc. With respect to the second question, particular emphasis was laid upon the competition of rayon with silk,
of cotton with jute, and upon the reduced use of linen in favour of
other fibres.
As regards changes in fashion bearing upon the total consumption
of textile goods, it was thought by some speakers that Governments
might profitably consider ways and means of encouraging larger
uses of textiles. Several speakers also suggested that, in particular,
Government measures be taken to protect textile manufacturers
in the use of patterns and designs. As regards shifts from one
textile fibre to others, the view was expressed that this resulted
largely from factors of fashion and of relative pricing. Some
speakers pointed out that the internal competition among the
different fibres and the respective branches of industry was so
persistent and so strong as to make it necessary, when introducing
fundamental social reforms, to apply them to the textile industry
in its entirety.
At the same time the spokesmen of the various interests involved
found themselves in substantial agreement on several methods by
which purchasing power could be augmented through price readjustments. It was suggested from several sources that means might
be found to avoid excessive fluctuations in the price of textile raw
materials. It was generally agreed that considerable economies
remained to be achieved in the spread between the prices received
by producers of textile raw materials and the prices paid by manufacturers purchasing such fibres. It was further intimated that the
costs of distributing textile goods to the consuming public offered
possibilities of more economical procedure. While the methods of
distribution differ in various countries, in general the cost of distribution could be regarded as involving a certain element of dupli-
— 251 —
cation requiring the ultimate consumer of textiles to pay an amount
for distribution which is out of proportion to manufacturing costs.
An improvement in distributing methods would spell savings in
costs, making more textile products available to lower income
groups.
Ill
Having agreed on the need for and the possibilities of expanding
the consumption of textiles, the Committee gave expression to the
view that the production of textiles should, in the long run, be
expanded rather than curtailed. The inadequate levels of consumption now prevailing the world over make it imperative, as a longrun policy for the welfare of the textile industry, to devise ways
and means of putting a larger output at the disposal of consumers.
At the same time, attention was drawn to the advisability, in
certain circumstances, of controlling the rate of growth in the
textile manufacturing industry, and to the necessity, under existing
exigencies, of adjusting capacity to the limit of curtailed effective
markets.
The reasons underlying experiments both in the United States
and in Great Britain for curtailing capacity temporarily, were
explained in some detail to the Conference and to the Committee.
It was put to the Conference and to the Committee that the United
States textile codes under the National Industrial Recovery Act
aimed at achieving a controlled rate of growth so that no region
could develop its own sales by virtue of undercutting labour
standards of other regions. It was also put to the Conference and
to the Committee that the retirement of excess cotton spindles in
Great Britain was to be explained by the sharp contraction of export
markets, attributable both to competition from countries with
lower standards and to the growth of home market production on
the part of former major customers. In the long run, however,
both the United States and Great Britain, as well as other countries
where curtailment experiments had been made, were interested in
enlarging markets and in raising consumption levels despite the
temporary circumstances which had required some curtailment of
existing capacity. The ultimate goal was abundance and plenty
of textile goods as one of the primary necessities of life.
An orderly expansion of the textile industry, however, was held
to depend upon an orderly development of international trade in
textiles. In the course of the discussion repeated references were
— 252 —
made to the fact t h a t most countries must export either textile
raw materials or textile manufactures or both, and that few
countries do in fact consume the total output of their textile
industries. The present strains and stresses in the world textile
markets were ascribed to a number of causes, but special references
were made to regional movements of productive capacity and to
disparities in costs of labour and raw materials. Many speakers,
from all groups, alluded to the extensive movement of productive
capacity in textile manufacturing from older industrial countries
and regions to newer countries and regions mostly agricultural in
character. Examples were brought forward of such movements
on the international plane, as from Europe to Asia and Latin
America; and on the national scale as from New England to the
Southern States of the United States of America. The view was
generally expressed that the economic difficulties in the older
industrial regions and countries were largely related to this shifting
of productive capacity, particularly with respect to national
industries largely dependent upon exports for their prosperity. It
was also argued that differences in national levels of wages were
one of the primary factors in inducing the movement in question.
In considering the relationship between newer and older textile
areas, it was generally accepted t h a t the spread of the textile
industry to new countries was inevitable and that on the whole
it represented a means for improving the economic condition of
the world. The progressive development of industrialism was
recognised as a means for increasing the national income of the
populations of the less developed countries. Such an increase in
their national income was said to be essential if the peoples of these
areas were to take more of the goods produced with competitive
advantage in the developed industrial areas. However, it was
stressed that such a growth must take place without undue and
excessive stimulation by uneconomic methods. The danger lay
not in the spread of the textile industry to new countries but in
the methods by which such spread was stimulated, which might
cause a surplus of productive capacity and which upset the competitive balance between the different countries of the world.
The desirability of a balanced growth between the textile industries of different countries and regions was thus indicated. It was
in this connection especially that the importance of labour standards
was emphasised. It was maintained that the wide disparities in
labour standards were largely responsible for the strains in international competition and for the restrictive commercial policies
— 253 —
adopted by high wage countries against the countries with lower
wage standards. In the course of this discussion some references
were made to conditions in Japan and their effect upon international trade. Japanese members of the Committee claimed that
labour conditions in the textile manufacturing industry of Japan
compared favourably with conditions of similar workers in several
of the other countries. Japanese members of the Committee made
the following points: (1) that Japanese real wages were not as low
as nominal wage figures seemed to indicate, because of the higher
purchasing power of the yen within the country; (2) that the
Japanese textile workers received a large part of their payment
in indirect wages as a result of the dormitory system prevailing
in the country and of the various welfare activities of Japanese
employers. Without estimating the exact amount of these indirect
expenditures for workers' welfare, the Japanese members emphasised
the fact that the small amount paid by the girls to cover, sometimes
only a part of, the cost of the wholesome and nutritious food,
gratuitous use of the lodging facilities of the clean and sanitary
dormitories, the entertainment which was supplied to them, the
educational facilities afforded them and the various recreational
opportunities, provided them with a standard of living which was
not only far above that of the homes from which they came but
also compared well with the standards of living of similar workers
in other countries; (3) that the recent large expansion in Japan's
exports of cotton and rayon goods was mainly a result of and in
partial compensation for the drastic decline in the price of raw
silk, a decline which had sharply curtailed that country's power
to import foodstuffs, raw materials and manufactures; and (4) that
comparison between wage rates paid in Japan and elsewhere could
be deceptive unless due allowances were made for the totally
different habits of life which prevailed in Japan as compared with
other countries.
On the other hand, a number of workers' and employers' representatives from other countries criticised the dormitory system,
stressed the low money and real wages in the textile mills of Japan
and called attention to the fact that the wage differences between
Japan and older industrial countries had increased despite the fact
that wages had fallen in the older areas of textile-producing
countries and that productivity had risen in the new textile areas.
It was recognised, however, that in newly industrialised countries
the wages of textile workers, while low, were often higher than
the earnings of the agricultural population from which the workers
— 254 —
were recruited. The Committee thus came back again to the need
of improving agricultural conditions.
Many members of the Committee stressed the view that competition should not work itself out by the lowering of labour standards.
It was pointed out that no area of the world could expect to reap
advantages from low-wage standards and excessive hours of work
for very long, that such advantages were temporary in character
and that the only way for permanent economic and industrial
development is by means of a levelling up of labour standards
everywhere. It was urged that if more attention were given to
reducing the international divergencies in labour standards which
were one of the primary factors in bringing about the present
dislocation in the world trade in textiles, a better equilibrium of
supply and demand as well as a fuller measure of social justice
might be more readily, achieved.
Various members of the Committee suggested in this connection
that the improvement of labour standards should be connected
with measures for the easing of international competition and
trade. Considerable emphasis was laid in this connection on
tariff policies, including high protective duties and quotas, as
measures which curtailed existing markets. While giving full
weight to the national interests which made it seem advisable to
many countries to protect their own textile industries, most of the
speakers were in substantial agreement that the lowering of tariff
obstacles would, taking the world as a whole, lead to an expansion
of markets and would in large measure render unnecessary attempts
to curtail capacity. A number of speakers urged that the best
way to improve labour standards and to expand trade in textiles is
to establish some concrete and practical relations between the
freeing of trade and the improvement of working conditions. The
workers' group illustrated the possibilities of such procedure by
referring to the way in which the tariff measures of the United
States had operated to eliminate in short time the " penal sanctions
system " from the tobacco plantations of the Netherlands East
Indies.
Exchange restrictions as well as the difficulties encountered by
certain countries in procuring adequate supplies of raw materials
were felt by some speakers to be further elements in preventing
the full use of the textile manufacturing capacity which existed.
It was urged by those who maintained this view that it was essential
in the interests of the textile industries and of economic improvement in general to remove exchange restrictions as far as practicable
— 255 —
by means of monetary stabilisation and to make it possible for all
countries to obtain adequate raw material supplies at reasonable
prices.
Several speakers alluded to the practice in certain countries of
providing textile exporters with direct or indirect subsidies. They
argued that such subsidies were a disturbing element in international competition with effects analogous to those resulting
from competition by means of low wages. They argued further
that if this practice is continued labour standards might be pressed
downwards in countries which did not make such direct or indirect
subsidies available to exporters of textile goods.
IV
From the discussion in the Conference and in the Committee, it
would appear that there are distinct possibilities of relating some
reduction in the trade barriers which now obstruct world commerce
in textile goods with the general levelling-up of labour standards
in the industry. On the one hand, the opinion was expressed
generally that the removal of some of the present obstacles to
world trade in textile goods was an essential condition for reviving full prosperity in the industry and for maintaining its
welfare at a permanently high level. On the other hand, it was
agreed that, although the labour standards of the textile industry
were far from ideal in any country, there were extreme divergencies among countries as regards the standards which actually
exist.
Several speakers made the point that many of the existing
obstacles to international trade, in textiles as well as in other
goods, arose because it was necessary for countries with higher
labour standards to protect their competitive positions against
countries with lower labour standards. Some speakers went so
far, in fact, as to suggest that it might be necessary in the long run
for the countries with the more advanced labour standards in the
textile industry to protect themselves by tariff measures still more
than at present against the competition of countries with less
advanced standards. It was also intimated to the Conference and
the Committee that some of the most important textile manufacturing countries, where the labour standards diverge most markedly
from those prevailing in Europe and North America, might have
been able to make advances toward better working conditions if
— 256 —
their exports had not been hampered by protective tariffs and
quota restrictions. In the Conference and the Committee it was
suggested that it might be advisable to explore the possibilities of
relieving world commerce in textile products from some of its more
serious hindrances simultaneously and in conjunction with a
removal of some of the more extreme divergencies in national
labour standards in the textile industry.
All speakers stressed the international ramifications of the
textile industry binding the various countries of the world into a
common system of production, consumption and trade. Within
this world system, industrial countries are largely dependent on
agricultural countries for raw materials, while agricultural countries,
though in process of developing their own capacity to manufacture
textile goods, are still large import markets. While all countries
are in vigorous competition in most textile markets, this competition
resting in large measure on differences in labour costs, it has been
intimated that some of the countries with the lowest labour costs
envisage their economic function primarily as supplying low-income
populations, particularly in oversea markets, with cheap textile
goods which the high labour costs countries would not find it in
their economic interest to supply. All these facts taken together
suggest that the various countries concerned in the textile industry,
as producers and as consumers, as exporters and importers, might
find it fruitful to explore the possibility of international agreements
relating to access to textile raw materials, to the shifting of productive capacity, the stabilisation of competition in different
textile markets, as well as the freeing of the world trade in textiles
in response to the levelling-up of labour standards.
That the economic problems of the textile industry, above all
other industries, calls for international action as the proper solution,
is a point upon which all speakers agreed. The outstanding
suggestions which have been advanced during the course of the
discussion may be summarised as follows :
1. That, in framing their commercial policies, Governments
should take account of social conditions prevailing in countries
with which they have trade relations, and in particular should
bear in mind the standards set by international labour Conventions.
2. That, in the interests of enlarged trade as well as of improved
social conditions, Governments should seek every opportunity to
reduce unreasonable trade barriers.
— 257 —
3. That an International Tripartite Committee might be set
up within the International Labour Organisation to study measures
necessary to achieve prosperity and social justice in the textile
industry, or more generally to consider all the economic and social
problems of the textile industry.
4. That the efforts now being made to co-ordinate the interests
of producers and consumers of textile raw materials should be
further pursued and further implemented, with particular emphasis
on increasing the suitability and accessibility of raw materials for
the technical and economic requirements of the industry in order
to improve efficiency and lower costs.
5. That Governments might contemplate the establishment of
an International Commission to consider production and prices in
the textile industry as a whole. In this connection it was said
that greater balance in the world textile industry involves to a
certain degree industrial planning on an international scale.
6. That minimum wage-fixing machinery and trade boards be
established in countries where they do not exist to regulate wages
and working conditions.
7. Efforts should be made to increase the purchasing power of
consumers in agricultural countries.

The general sentiment of the Committee which seems to emerge
from the speeches made during its sittings is that the discussion of
the economic problems of the textile industry by representatives
of Governments, employers and workers which has been made
possible for the first time in the present Conference has served a
very useful purpose. It has enabled the difficulties which confront
the industry to be more clearly visualised ; the obstacles in the way
to further social progress to be seen in their correct perspective.
The large consensus of opinion expressed in favour of international
action being taken with a view to overcoming these obstacles
through diminishing the economic difficulties which are at present
hampering the industry, suggests the necessity for the continuous
consideration of the problems and policies of the industry and the
desirability of creating the necessary instruments for that purpose.

R E P O R T ON SOCIAL PROBLEMS OF T H E T E X T I L E
INDUSTRY
1. In accordance with the recommendation made by the
Selection Committee in its third report, the Conference decided
t h a t the economic and social problems of the textile industry, to
which many references had been made during the course of the
first ten plenary sittings of the Conference, should be further
considered in committee of the whole Conference. It was considered
desirable t h a t social and economic problems, though closely
interrelated, should be considered separately.
2. The following members were appointed as the
Committee:

For the workers' members :
Mr. Arthur Shaw (British workers' delegate).
3. The Committee adopted the following agenda as the basis
for its discussion of the social problems of the textile industry:

— 259 —
4. A suggestion was made that the Committee should consider
also the extent of the membership of employers' and workers'
organisations in the textile industry. It was felt, however, that
this matter would fall more appropriately within the scope of the
work of the Committee on Statistics, and it was accordingly decided
to call the attention of that Committee to it.
5. The Committee devoted five sittings to the discussion of
social problems in the textile industry. It would obviously be
impossible to reproduce at length all the information given and
arguments adduced during the course of these sittings, and this
report is therefore intended merely to give a general survey of the
debates. At the same time it has been thought desirable to take
into account, not merely the discussion in Committee, but also
certain of the references to social problems which were made in
the course of the plenary sittings.
I. —• METHODS OF REGULATING CONDITIONS
6. The discussion on this subject revealed a striking consensus
of opinion among Government, employers' and workers' representatives as to the necessity and value of collective negotiation and
agreement concerning conditions of employment. It also evoked
a number of valuable expressions of opinion, based on practical
experience, as to the desirability of reinforcing the system of
collective negotiation and agreement by the intervention of the
State. By a happy coincidence, this discussion took place on the
very day when in the United States the Supreme Court gave
judgment upholding in five cases the constitutionality of the
Wagner Labor Relations Act, and when in Great Britain an Order
of the Minister of Labour came into force giving compulsory legal
effect, under the Cotton Manufacturing (Temporary Provisions)
Act, 1934, to voluntary agreements entered into by the employers'
and workers' organisations in a section of the British cotton industry.
This coincidence emphasised the practical character of the discussion.
7. Spokesmen representing not only workers' organisations but
also both the employers and the Governments of three such
important textile-producing countries as Great Britain, France
and Belgium, all paid tribute to the value, as a means of securing
stability, good relations and progressively better conditions in the
— 260 —
industry, of free organisation on both sides and the conclusion of
collective agreements after negotiation on a basis of equality and
mutual respect between the employers' and workers' organisations.
The United States employers' delegate stated that the Government,
employers and workers are in favour of the principle of collective
bargaining. Several speakers, however, pointed out that the
efficacy of the regulation of conditions of employment by this
method depended on the effectiveness of the organisation on both
sides, and that to secure the general and strict observance of agreements, supplementary action had been shown by experience to be
necessary. In the absence of such supplementary action, parties
to agreements had in practice found their intentions defeated by
the non-compliance of persons who were not members of, or subject
to control by, the organisations negotiating the agreement. Steps
had therefore been taken in various countries to extend agreements
concluded voluntarily between employers' and workers' organisations so as to make them apply compulsorily to all employers
and workers in the particular field covered. This step had been
taken in Czechoslovakia, where an Act passed at the joint request
of the employers' and workers' organisations provides that collective
agreements may be made binding on third parties, and where
100,000 workers in the textile industry are now covered by agreements which have thus been made binding. Similar action had been
taken in Great Britain, under the Act of 1934 already referred to,
in respect of wages in the weaving section of the cotton industry,
and the statements made in Committee show that the working of
the Act has proved highly satisfactory to the Government and the
employers' and workers' organisations concerned. Further confirmation of the value of this system is given by the experience of
France, where legislation passed in 1936 empowers the Government
to make collective agreements concluded between the most representative organisations in an industry or district binding on all the
employers and workers concerned.
8. Reference was also made in Committee to other methods of
ensuring the regulation of working conditions on the basis of joint
discussion between representatives on both sides. One of the
British workers' advisers paid a tribute to the value of the trade
board system in cases where organisation in the industry is defective,
while the Belgian Government delegate described the working of
the joint committees in that country, first established in 1919
and now extended to a large number of the most important industries, which maintain permanent contact between the employers'
— 261 —
and workers' organisations, and provide for the joint consideration
of wages and all other conditions of work, the prevention and settlement of disputes, and the consideration of proposals for legislation.
Speaking as Chairman of the Joint Committee for the Textile
Industry, the Belgian Government delegate bore testimony to the
value of the work of such committees.
9. The view was expressed by a number of speakers that there
are, however, limitations upon the extent to which voluntary
agreements, even when reinforced by the authority of the State,
can provide an effective and permanent guarantee of the proper
regulation of working conditions and the prevention of unfair
competition based upon inferior conditions of employment. Purely
voluntary agreements may be terminated at the will of the parties.
To secure durable equality in competitive conditions, legislative
action is often necessary. In the national field, regulation by the
method of legislation therefore offers a greater degree of security,
but from the international point of view, even legislation by itself
is not a sufficient guarantee. Legislation can be repealed unless
there is some guarantee of its continuance. Such a safeguard is
afforded by the ratification of international labour Conventions.
Voluntary organisation and voluntary agreement after free negotiation may therefore be regarded as the necessary starting-point
for the proper regulation of working conditions, but cannot be
regarded as sufficient in themselves.
10. The foregoing summary does not, of course, represent the
views of all the members of the Committee without exception. For
example, the majority of the employers of the Netherlands are not
yet prepared to agree to the principle of national collective bargaining. Similarly, while the British employers in the cottonmanufacturing section of the industry approve of the use of legislation to secure effective regulation of wages, British textile employers are not prepared to agree that hours of work should be
regulated by statutory authority.
Nevertheless, the general
conclusions to be drawn from the course of the discussion might
be summed up as follows:
(1) Collective agreements are of special importance mainly in
the regulation of matters which are not dealt with by legislation
and may serve as a very useful preparation for future legislation.
They may also be of great utility in the working out and application
of the detailed execution of legislation, subject to and within the
general limits laid down by the law.
— 262 —
(2) Even in the national field, recourse to legislation is in some
cases indispensable to secure a sure and comprehensive basis for
the establishment of conditions of fair competition between employers and the proper regulation of conditions of employment.
(3) In the international field the same purposes can be achieved
by international agreement embodied in an international Convention.
II. — HOURS OF WORK AND WAGES IN RELATION
THERETO
11. The discussion in the Committee concerning the application
of the 40-hour week to the textile industry revealed, of course, a
much wider divergence of view than was the case with the discussion of collective negotiation and agreement.
12. The United States delegation rendered very material service
to the Committee by furnishing detailed statistical analyses of
some of the results of the introduction of the 40-hour week in
textile undertakings.
13. The first statement, submitted on behalf of the employers'
delegate of the United States, concerned costs in a typical undertaking during a 6-year period in which working hours were 55 a
week and during the last three years since hours, were reduced to
40 a week. It was pointed out that the reduction of hours had
facilitated a change-over from a single shift to a two-shift system
of working and that the latter system has now become fairly
general in the United States. The analysis deserves to be studied
in detail and the Committee accordingly decided that it should be
reproduced in full in the Committee Records. The main conclusions
can, however, be given here. The change in the working week
and the introduction of the two-shift system resulted in an immediate increase in manufacturing costs, but the increase in production
was slightly in excess of the increase in the cost of production. It
had been anticipated that the increase in labour costs would be
37% per cent., but in actual fact the increase was only 12 per cent.,
though weekly wages were not lowered and hourly rates were
increased. This result was secured by the utilisation of improved
machinery, a better arrangement of processes, application of skilled
labour, a more adequate scheduling of the flow of production, and
a better selection of raw materials. The change from the 55-hour
— 263 —
to the 40-hour week thus demonstrated the necessity and possibility of improved technology. As for the effect of the change on
the employer's interests, the statement showed that the dividends
paid to the investors during the 40-hour week period averaged
approximately the same as those paid during the 55-hour period.
The amount available for expenditure on planned improvement
with the shorter working week was approximately 70 per cent, in
excess of that available with the longer week, and the net working
capital available was approximately 50 per cent, in excess. The
interests of the owners of the business, therefore, did not suffer
by reason of the change. These results were typical of the experience
of the cotton textile industry of the United States as a whole and
served to indicate why the cotton textile manufacturers of that
country considered the 40-hour working week as a practicable and
desirable basis for operation of their industry, provided that the
management has the continued opportunity to utilise the best
available manufacturing technique.
14. The possibilities of improvements in production were also
stressed in the second statement, furnished by the United States
Government delegation. A study had been made of technological
progress in a number of cotton mills in the United States, and
certain of the conclusions reached may be briefly indicated. Despite
the stimulus to improved management due to the wage increases
accompanying the shorter working week, United States cotton mills
have not yet fully utilised the possibilities of installing modern
equipment. Between 1923 and 1936 labour productivity had
increased very substantially (by more than 20 per cent, in 12 out
of 13 mills examined, and by as much as 55 per cent, in one mill),
and the change to a 40-hour week was essentially a delayed recognition of the technological progress that had been achieved over
the preceding decade or was within the reach of the management.
In spite of increased productivity, over the period from 1923 to
1929, the workers had secured almost no gains in earnings, nor
could they have secured any gain except by collective agreement
or legislation to bring about some equalisation of wage rates in
the several regions of the United States. The tendency of the wide
divergencies in rates of pay until then had been to intensify competition, to sharpen the drive for technical progress and, at the
same time, to depress labour standards.
15. The workers' members of the Committee regarded the
experience of the United States as a confirmation of their view
— 264 —
t h a t the reduction of the working week was both practicable and
¿desirable. They referred also to the experience of France, where
the 40-hour week has been in operation in the textile industry
since January of the present year. The French Government
representative, while not prepared to draw final conclusions from
so short an experience, nevertheless stated that the industry had
adapted itself without serious difficulty to the shorter working
week as applied under the Decree now in force, and t h a t the
reduction of hours of work had resulted in a substantial decrease
in partial unemployment.
16. The spokesmen of the employers of other countries were
not prepared to accept the experience of the United States as
conclusive. It was argued that the data given showed that a
27 per cent, reduction in hours of work resulted in an increase of
only 10 per cent, in the number of workers employed to secure the
same output, and that the results would be even less if the comparison were made between the 48-hour week and the 40-hour
week instead of between the 55-hour week and the 40-hour week.
17. Apart from the introduction of the two-shift system and
the speeding up of rationalisation which had characterised the
change to a shorter working week in the United States, it was
argued by several employers' representatives that account must
be taken of the fact that the United States had a very large domestic
market, and its textile industry was not dependent upon export
trade. Other countries could not afford to ignore the question of
foreign competition and no one country could undertake to reduce
its hours of work unless it was assured t h a t all its competitors would
do likewise. To this argument, representatives of the workers and
of certain Governments and employers replied that the purpose of
the adoption of a Draft Convention on the shorter working week
was to secure the widespread application of the reform, and so
avoid any intensification of the competition between textileproducing countries.
18. The question of foreign competition, and particularly
competition between Western and Oriental countries, was discussed
at considerable length and in view of the importance attached by
the Committee to the relative levels of social conditions in the west
and the east, it may be useful to bring together very briefly certain
important items of information communicated by delegates from
the Eastern countries both in plenary sitting and in Committee.
— 265 —
19. For Japan, it was stated that the actual hours of work in
cotton spinning and large-scale weaving factories are 8y2 per day
with a weekly rest. In silk reeling, which employs 330,000 workers
—more than cotton spinning and weaving combined—the hours
of work are generally 10 a day, with two rest days a month. This,
however, is a seasonal industry and the number of working days
in the year is only about 250. Rayon yarn production employs
72,000 workers. Of this total, 28,000 work on continuous processes
and 95 per cent, of those work on a three 8-hour shift basis. Of
the remaining 44,000, employed on non-continuous work, 99 per
cent, work from 7% to 9% hours a day, 8% hours being the
average, and only 1 per cent, exceed 9% hours per day. Night
work of women and young persons has long been prohibited. The
proportion of young persons employed has also been substantially
reduced, having fallen from 13 per cent, in 1921 to 9 per cent, in
1932. It was contended that the dormitory system was necessary,
and indeed desirable, in the special conditions of Japan. The girls
spend only a few years in the factories after leaving the primary
school—in a typical case, 86 per cent, of the girls worked for only
two years; only 10 per cent, for more than two years, and the rest
for more than three years—and in many respects their way of
life, apart from their work in the factory, might be compared with
that of girls in a boarding school.
20. As regards China, the Chinese workers' delegate stated
that there were 500,000 workers in modern textile factories, threequarters of whom were women and children. Hours of work
were very long, an 11-hour day and 66-hour week being common,
and wages low, the pay received by a Chinese worker for an 11-hour
day being only 60 Chinese or 18 United States cents. An especially
important feature of the situation in China was that 46 per cent, of
the Chinese textile workers were employed in factories owned by
foreigners. As will be seen later in this report, the Committee
devoted special consideration to the problem of foreign undertakings in China.
21. In India-there had been considerable reductions of hours
of work in recent years. The working week, which at one time
was 72 hours, had been reduced first to 60 hours and then,
since the beginning of 1935, to a legal maximum of 54 hours.
From 1931 to 1935 the jute-manufacturing industry voluntarily
worked on a 40-hour basis and to-day, according to the statement of the Indian employers' delegate, it is mostly on a 48-hour
— 266 —
week basis, though it still has to contend with serious difficulties.
22. The Netherlands Government representative pointed out
that one of the vital problems of the industry was an increase in
consumption in Oriental and other extra-European markets.
The reduction of hours in European countries would add nothing
to the incomes of those foreign customers and the increase in cost
of production due to the shorter working week would bear more
heavily on European countries than on their Oriental competitors,
since the proportion of total cost due to labour was substantially
higher in the European countries.
23. The British employers laid special stress on the connection
between hours of work and wages and argued that since international regulation of wages was impossible it would likewise be
impossible to establish an effective international regulation of
hours.
24. In connection with this discussion, attention should be
called to the suggestion put forward by the French Government
delegate to the effect that, while the limit of hours of work should
in principle be the same for all countries, it might be expedient to
consider the possibility of permitting, as had been done in the
Hours of Work (Industry) Convention of 1919, special transitional
arrangements for certain countries. On the other hand, it was
pointed out by the workers' representatives that experience had
shown that exceptions provided in certain Conventions in favour of
certain countries had not always induced those countries to ratify
and apply the Conventions. Consequently, the workers were of
opinion that, more especially as regards the reduction of hours of
work, exceptions were in no way desirable or useful or to be recommended. In any case, it would, of course, be for the International
Labour Conference in June to decide whether and to what extent
such special arrangements should be permitted and the countries
to which they should apply.
25. Apart from the question of the shorter working week, a
useful discussion took place on the question of shift working and
night work. The extent to which two day-time shifts are worked
varies considerably from country to country. The system of two
shifts, each operating 40 hours a week has now become general in
the United States. In Great Britain, however, out of over one
million textile workers, only about 15,000 women and young
— 267 —
persons were found on enquiry in 1935 to be working on a shift
system, 1,900 of these being employed in the cotton section,
2,500 in the woollen section, 6,600 in the artificial silk section,
and 2,200 in the hosiery section of the industry. Where shift
working had been introduced it was generally accompanied by a
reduction in the length of the working week. In most cases,
however, this reduction in the working week was accompanied by
an adjustment of wages, so that in 13,000 out of the 15,000 cases
mentioned the workers were receiving wages for 48 hours though
working a shorter week. In France, out of a total of 900,000
workers only 50,000 work on the double shift system.
26. The tendency to shorten hours of work and to increase
hourly wages when shift working was introduced had also manifested itself in the Netherlands. In Poland three-shift working
was absolutely prohibited, and in no case was night work permitted
for women or young persons.
27. There appeared to be general agreement that where the
shift system was introduced the duration of the shift should be
shorter and that a maximum working week should be fixed.
Further, strong opposition was displayed by the workers' representatives to night work by women and young persons.
28. A further question considered was the question of annual
holidays with pay. In many countries paid holidays are accorded
to workers in the textile industry, either by law or by custom. In
this connection, as in connection with the employment of women
and young persons at night and the granting of a weekly rest to
workers, attention was called to the international Conventions
dealing with these subjects. It was pointed out that of the 27
countries represented at the Conference, only 13 had ratified the
Conventions relating to the night work of women and young persons
and to the weekly rest.
29. The Committee was not, of course, called upon to come to
any definite decision as regards the reduction of hours of work,
and could only take note of the information given and the arguments adduced. The conclusion to be drawn would appear to be
that, since the reduction of hours of work may give rise, at the
beginning at any rate, to some increase in the cost of production,
the general application of the shorter working week required to
be brought about by agreement between the various countries
concerned, so that no country would place itself at a disadvantage
— 268 —
as compared with others by taking the initiative in reducing hours.
It will be for the International Labour Conference in June to pronounce upon the desirability of introducing the shorter working
week and to decide the methods by which the shorter week can
be applied so as to take account of the economic requirements and
the seasonal fluctuations in the industry.
30. As regards wages, if the intentions of those who advocate
the shorter working week are to be realised, it is clear t h a t the
reduction of hours of work must be accompanied by the maintenance of weekly earnings. As regards the other questions discussed
by the Committee, namely, the night work of women and young
persons, the weekly rest and annual holidays with pay, the attention
of States which have not yet ratified the Conventions dealing with
these subjects—though in many cases their practice is in substantial
accord with the requirements of the Conventions—might well be
called to the desirability of ratifying them.
31. The attention of the Conference and of the Committee was
drawn to the anomalous situation existing in the textile industry
in China. It was pointed out that during the last twelve years
the Chinese imports of textiles have been reduced by about twothirds. The textile mills in China were more and more fulfilling
the requirements of the Chinese markets at the expense of other
textile-producing countries. Nevertheless, 45 per cent, of the
Chinese production was in the International Settlements where it
was not subject to Chinese jurisdiction. The matter has been raised
on several occasions in the International Labour Conference and
the Office has made repeated endeavours to reach an agreement
between authorities of the International Settlement at Shanghai
and the Chinese Government in order to ensure the application
of identical regulations as regards hours of work, safety and inspection in the International Settlement and in the rest of China. In
the absence of any such regulations, it was stated by the Chinese
workers' delegate that factories within the Settlement were working
women and young persons 11 hours per day. The need for such
regulation has been recognised by all the parties concerned and
was embodied last year in an agreement between the Municipal
Council of Shanghai and the Chinese authorities. This agreement
was not ratified, however, by the Consular Corps and therefore
was not brought into operation.
32. There was a strong feeling in the Committee that the International Labour Office should renew its efforts to bring about a
— 269 —
settlement of this question which would ensure that working
conditions should be regulated on similar lines in the International
Settlement and in the rest of China in order that factories on
Chinese territory and within the Settlement should not derive an
unfair competitive advantage by availing themselves of the absence
of labour standards.
III. — HEALTH AND EFFICIENCY
33. The discussion under this heading ranged over a wide
field. Special importance was attached by several members of
the Committee to the question of the intensity of the effort demanded of the worker by reason of the number of spindles or looms or
any other units of machinery to be tended, the nature and pace
of the work, and other factors. By another happy coincidence,
the newspapers of the day on which the Committee took up the
discussion of this subject reported a speech by the British Prime
Minister at a dinner of the Federation of British Industries, in
which he referred to the problem of " how far we can wisely reduce
existing hours in cases where nervous strain plays a large part in
the lives of men ". " It is," he said, " a question of ensuring that
those who suffer from the nervous strain incidental to certain
industries may have their health preserved and not be allowed to
become what they might wrell become if nothing were done—
nervous wrecks who are no good to themselves or the country."
34. United States delegates of all three groups pointed out that
the question of work assignments had been one of the principal
causes of the serious textile strike in that country in 1934. An
official enquiry instituted after the strike revealed the complexity
of the problem and the necessity for giving full consideration to
all the factors involved; for example, not only to the number of
looms to be tended, but also to the type of loom, the kind of cloth.
the quality of the material, incidental work such as cleaning, oiling
and adjusting the machinery, atmospheric conditions, etc. It was
therefore necessary, if work assignments were to be properly
adjusted, that they should be explained and measured, not in
terms of units of output and machinery, but in terms of actual
work required. Workers' spokesmen declared that they did not
object to rationalisation and increases in efficiency in themselves,
but that these must be subordinated to consideration of the welfare
of the worker, who must not be pushed beyond a reasonable work
— 270 —
load. The importance of this subject was also stressed by the French
Government delegate and the Swedish employers' adviser. There
appeared to be general agreement that the matter was much too
complex to be capable of being dealt with by detailed regulations,
either national or international. Each case should be dealt with
by co-operation and agreement between employers and workers,
and the subject was eminently suitable for collective agreements.
35. Attention was also called to a number of other matters
affecting the health and efficiency of workers, such as effective
lighting, the proper regulation of temperature throughout the day,
the provision and utilisation of seating accommodation, the prohibition of the lifting of excessive weights, measures to reduce the
risk of accident and occupational disease, etc. It was recognised
that the International Labour Office had already collected and
published a considerable volume of information on these matters,
but it was suggested that the Office might consider the possibility
of extending its studies in this field and publishing the results in
such a form that they would be readily accessible to all those
concerned in the textile industry.
36. On the question of the employment of young persons, some
employers' representatives urged that for certain kinds of work
the nimble fingers of young persons were necessary and that early
training was desirable in the interests of the workers themselves.
They also expressed some apprehension lest the raising of the
minimum age for the admission of children to employment should
result in a shortage of labour. From the workers' side, however,
it was argued that the real remedy for any disinclination of young
persons to enter the industry was to make conditions of employment
more attractive. The necessity for fixing a minimum age for employment was not contested in any quarter, and in this connection
attention was called to the fact that out of the 27 countries represented at the Conference only 12 had yet ratified the Minimum
Age (Industry) Convention of 1919. The French Government
delegate, it should be added, announced that his country, which
had not yet ratified this Convention, would shortly do so. It would
seem to be expedient to call the attention of Governments which
have not yet ratified this Convention to the desirability of giving
further consideration to the question of ratification. It must also
be borne in mind that the question of the revision of the Convention
so as to raise the minimum age to fifteen years is to come before
the International Labour Conference in June.
— 271 —
IV. — SOCIAL SERVICES
37. Several references were made in the course of the discussion
to the necessity for taking account, when making comparisons
between social standards in different countries, not only of hours
of work and wages, but also of the general level of social conditions.
This point was emphasised by the British Government delegate,
who remarked that though expenditure on social services was
undoubtedly of great benefit in the long run to employers and
workers alike, the question of the cost of such services should not
be ignored when considering competitive costs at any given moment.
In the United Kingdom, apart from social services provided for
workers on a purely voluntary basis, services provided with the
aid of public funds or as a matter of statutory obligation on the
employer covered a very wide range and entailed very heavy
expenditure. The total national expenditure, including payments
out of public funds towards contributory and non-contributory
social services and the employers' and workers' contributions to
contributory social insurance schemes amounted to about
£500,000,000 a year.
SUMMARY
38. It will be seen t h a t the discussion by the Committee of the
social problems of the textile industry covered a wide range of
subjects, furnished an occasion for a very useful exchange of
information and views and evoked a considerable number of
interesting suggestions. The principal features of the discussion
may be briefly summed up as follows:
(1) Voluntary organisation of employers and workers in the
textile industry for the purpose of joint consideration and settlement of conditions of employment by means of collective agreements is of very great value and should, therefore, be encouraged.
(2) Nevertheless, collective agreements do not always afford
adequate safeguards for the effective regulation of working conditions and the establishment of a basis for fair competition between
all employers. The end desired may be more surely attained by
the enactment of legislation in the national sphere and the adoption,
ratification and effective application of international Conventions.
(3) The information t h a t has been made available and the
exchange of views that has taken place at this Conference have
— 272 —
served to throw light upon the problems arising in connection with
the reduction of hours of work in the textile industry, the practicability of and the necessity for which were urged by all the workers'
representatives and by certain Government and employers' representatives. On the other hand, other employers' and Government
representatives urged that the reduction of hours of work was
impracticable. It will be for the International Labour Conference
which will meet in June next to come to a decision upon the question
of the adoption of a Draft Convention on this subject.
(4) Shift working in the textile industry raises special problems.
The experience of responsible leaders of the industry both among
employers and among workers suggests that night shifts should
be resorted to only when required as a matter of strict necessity.
Where two daytime shifts are worked with a working week of
48 hours or more, a reduction of the length of the shift should be
considered.
(5) Night work by women and young persons should be absolutely prohibited. It would be desirable if those States which
have not yet ratified the existing Conventions on this subject
would give further consideration to the possibility of ratification.
(6) The Conventions relating to the weekly rest and to annual
holidays with pay likewise merit serious consideration by Governments with a view to ratification.
(7) Where measures of rationalisation are introduced, the risk
of excessive fatigue due to the intensity of the effort called for
from the worker and the conditions under which the work was to
be performed requires careful consideration, and every effort should
be made to secure, by agreement between the employers' and
workers' organisations, such adjustment of work assignments as
will take account of the human needs of the workers as well as
of the economic requirements of the undertaking.
(8) It would be useful if the International Labour Office could
make available, in a form readily accessible to all parties concerned,
the results of studies of the problems of fatigue, health and accident
prevention in the textile industry, as affected by such matters as
lighting, posture, temperature, atmospheric conditions, seating
accommodation, lifting of heavy weights, dust, etc.
(9) It is desirable that a minimum age should be fixed by law
in all countries for the admission of young persons to employment
in the industry. In this connection the attention of Governments
— 273 —
might usefully be invited to the desirability of giving consideration
to the ratification of the Minimum Age (Industry) Convention,
1919, and of any revised Convention on this subject which may
be adopted by the International Labour Conference in June next.
(10) It is desirable, in the general interests of the textile industry
as a whole, that the International Labour Office should renew its
efforts to bring about a solution of the problem of the regulation
of labour conditions in the International Settlements in China.

REPORT ON STATISTICS
1. In accordance with a decision taken by the Conference at
its plenary sitting on 7 April, a Committee on Statistics was
appointed consisting of 18 members (6 members for each group).
2.
The Officers of the Committee were as follows:
Chairman: Mr. Carter GOODRICH (representative of the
Governing Rody).
Vice-Chairmen : Mr. POGSON and Mr. DEAKIN.
Reporter: Mr. RAMSBOTTOM.
Mr. Nixon of the International Labour Office also attended the
meetings of the Committee as representative of the SecretaryGeneral of the Conference.
3. The Committee held six sittings, on 8, 9, 10, 12 and 14 April,
and a Sub-Committee sat on 13 and 14 April to consider certain
questions with regard to statistics relating to the economic aspects
of the textile industry.
4. In the Report prepared by the International Labour Office
relating to " The World Textile Industry ", a wide range of statistics has been assembled in regard to those aspects of the industry
which directly or indirectly have a bearing on the work of the
International Labour Organisation.
The Committee wish to
record their appreciation of the high value of these statistics and
vol. n .
18
— 274 —
of the objective manner in which they have been presented and
analysed. In order that full advantage might be taken of the
opportunity, afforded by this Conference, of rendering the statistics even more comprehensive and authoritative, the Committee
recommended on 8 April that members of the Conference should
be invited to communicate to the Secretariat any revisions which
they had found necessary, and any additional data at their disposal
which might enable particular tables to be completed. The Committee understands that a number of suggestions have been received,
and that any amendments or additions which the International
Labour Office may find necessary will be incorporated in the
statistical tables contained in the Report, before its final publication.
5. While the statistics given in the Report provide a conspectus
of the information at present available relating to the main branches
of the textile industry, the Committee have been impressed by the
fact that, as pointed out by the International Labour Office, the
possibilities of international comparisons of social and economic
conditions in the textile industry are greatly restricted by the
wide disparities in the character of the data collected and published
in different countries, by the lack of uniformity of the methods by
which the statistics are compiled, and in many instances by the
absence of the information necessary to provide a basis for such
comparisons. The deficiencies in the available data are especially
marked in regard to the statistics of wages, hours of labour, and
other working conditions.
6. As a result of the efforts made in recent years by the International Labour Office, and particularly of the recommendations
made by international Conferences of labour statisticians convened
by that Office, there has been a marked extension, in many countries,
of the information collected and published on these subjects, and
a closer approach to uniformity in the methods of collection and
presentation of the statistics. In the view of the Committee,
however, much still remains to be done in order to provide a
satisfactory basis for international comparisons. In these circumstances they considered it desirable that their deliberations
should be directed mainly to the deficiencies in the existing
information, and to the possibilities of indicating lines along
which the future development of internationally comparable
statistics relating to the textile industry might most usefully proceed.
— 275 —
7. In the course of their discussions the Committee were
supplied with copies of a questionnaire drawn up in 1931 by a
Committee of the Governing Body of the International Labour
Office in connection with a proposal that an enquiry should be
made into wages and hours of labour in the cotton and wool
textile industries. Owing mainly to the abnormal conditions
prevailing at that date, the enquiry was not instituted, but in
view of the more favourable conditions now obtaining, the Committee recommend that the Governing Body should consider the
desirability of proceeding at an early date with such an enquiry,
covering each of the principal branches of the textile industry
(for example, cotton, wool, silk and rayon, etc.).
8. A copy of the questionnaire referred to is annexed (Appendix I). Having regard to the large number of experts attending
the present Conference, the Committee decided that the opportunity
should be taken to consider whether any alterations in or additions
to that questionnaire appear to be necessary in order to enable the
information which would be obtained by an enquiry on the lines
contemplated to be most closely related to the future work of the
International Labour Office. As a result of their examination of
the questionnaire, they have suggested certain amendments and
additions, which are set out in Appendix II of this Report. The
Committee recommend that the amendments suggested shall
receive careful consideration before the proposed enquiry is
instituted.
9. In order that the information obtained by such an enquiry
may be periodically brought up to date, the Committee consider
it desirable that further enquiries on similar lines should be made
at regular intervals, at least once in every five years and preferably
once every two years. In the event of the normal interval being
longer than two years, the Committee recommend that more
frequent enquiries should be made during periods of wide cyclical
fluctuations of trade and employment.
10. The adoption of the above recommendations would provide
a basis for the collection of detailed and comprehensive statistics
enabling international comparisons of wages, hours and other
working conditions in the various branches of the textile industry
to be made at intervals of not more than five years. The Committee, however, consider it desirable that some data should also
be made available as to the fluctuations in employment, earnings
— 276 —
and working hours during the intervening periods. They accordingly recommend that in each country statistics should be regularly
collected at intervals of not more than three months, showing for a
representative sample of establishments in each of the principal
branches of the textile industry (a) the total number of workpeople employed by the establishments, (b) the total amount of
wages paid to these workpeople and (c) the aggregate number of
man-hours worked in a week or other customary pay-period.
11. In addition to the above information, the Committee regard
it as especially important t h a t statistics should be made available
showing the ratio of the total wages paid to the net value of production in the principal branches of the textile industry. They
observe that in the Report prepared by the International Labour
Office relating to " The World Textile Industry " information on
this subject is given for certain countries and they recommend
t h a t the Office, in collaboration with other competent international
organisations, should endeavour to arrange for the collection, if
possible at intervals of not longer than two years, of data which
will enable such statistics to be compiled for other textile-producing
countries. The value of these statistics will be increased if sepárate
particulars are also given as to the total amount paid in salaries.
12. In order to facilitate international comparisons of the
purchasing power of money wages of workers in the textile-industry,
it is desirable that the fullest possible information should be made
available as to working-class standards of living and as to relative
levels of cost of living in different countries. The Committee
recommend that the International Labour Office should continue
the researches which it has instituted with a view to obtaining
comparable data on these subjects and that for this purpose those
countries in which representative family budget enquiries have not
been made in recent years should be urged to undertake such
enquiries in the near future.
13. From the Report prepared by the Office, the Committee
observe that only for very few countries are separate statistics
of employment and unemployment in the different branches of the
textile industry regularly compiled. In view of the effects of
irregularity of employment and of unemployment on the standard
of living of the workers they regard it as especially important
that comprehensive information on this subject should be available,
and they recommend that the Governments of the principal
— 277 —
textile-producing countries should publish at regular intervals the
fullest possible statistics as to employment and unemployment in
each branch of this industry.
14. At the request of the General Committee of the Conference,
the Committee have given careful consideration to a suggestion
that information should be collected concerning the membership
of employers' and workers' organisations in the textile industry.
The Committee agree that if satisfactory statistics on this subject
could be obtained, they would be of considerable value. They find
that attempts to collect such statistics would meet with serious
practical difficulties, partly because in many countries the official
statistical authorities have no power to require employers' or
workers' organisations to furnish particulars of their membership,
and partly owing to the fact that many trade unions have members
in a wide range of industries and are not in possession of information
enabling them to analyse their total membership according to the
industries in which the individual members are employed. The
Committee recommend, however, t h a t the International Labour
Office should, from time to time, publish such information as may
be obtainable on this subject.
15. The foregoing recommendations are mainly concerned with
statistics relating to social conditions in the textile industry. As
stated in paragraph 3, certain questions with regard to statistics
relating to the economic aspects of the industry were referred for
the special consideration of a Sub-Committee. The Report of
this Sub-Committee, which is endorsed by the Committee, is
annexed.

(e.g. a week, a fortnight or a month in conformity with the customary pay-period) and
this period should, if possible, be the same for all establishments. If, however, in any
particular establishment or district the period is affected by special circumstances (holidays,
disputes, breakdowns) the nearest normal period should be taken.
(0) Including working foremen, engineers, warehousemen, packers, unskilled labour,
but excluding managers, office staff, commercial and other salaried officials, as well as
home workers. Assistants who are paid by other workers out of their wages should be
included.
(c) Voluntary contributions to welfare schemes, etc., organised by the employers or
by the workers should not be included, but contributions to compulsory accident insurance
should be included. Where it is impossible to supply exact figures for accident insurance
(when the cost of that insurance is borne by the employers and contributions paid annually)
approximate figures should be given.
(d) Where family allowances are paid to employees through the medium of a compensation fund, the amount paid to the compensation fund should be indicated.
(e) The normal hours stated should be the full time hours (for the week, or other payperiod covered by the information given under table III), exclusive of meal-times and overtime as fixed by collective agreements or by the rules of the individual establishments.
(/) For the Far Eastern countries and India, the age groups may be slightly different;
if data for classification by age and sex are not available the total figures may be sufficient.
It is divided into three sections. In the first section (total workers
employed) it is anticipated that the Governments will supply the figures
on the basis of the information in their possession. For the other two
sections it is anticipated that the Governments will obtain the information from a certain number of establishments. These establishments
will be selected by the Governments in such a way as to obtain a
representative enquiry on the conditions in the industry as a whole,
and the Committee expressed the view that it would be desirable that
the enquiry should cover at least 60 per cent, of the workers in the
industry or its branches and should take account of establishments of
different sizes in different districts.
In the final questionnaire it is intended that four separate sheets
should be used identical with the draft table III attached and would
relate to the following four separate branches of the industry:
(1)
(2)
Cotton preparing and spinning departments;
Cotton weaving departments;
— 281 —
(3) Woollen and worsted preparing; spinning and weaving processes;
(4) Bleaching, dyeing, printing and finishing of cotton yarns and
cloth and of woollen and worsted yarns and cloth1.
APPENDIX
II
RECOMMENDATIONS BY THE COMMITTEE ON STATISTICS FOR THE
AMENDMENT OF THE DRAFT QUESTIONNAIRE SHOWN IN
APPENDIX I
Table I
The particulars given in this table should relate to a date approximating as closely as possible to that for which particulars are to be
given in table III.
Table III
Date of Enquiry. — In order to avoid disparities arising from seasonal
variations in different countries and different branches of the textile
industry, the particulars given in this table should relate so far as
possible to a period of normal conditions of employment. The period
selected, however, should be chosen so as to approach as closely as
possible to a particular date to be fixed by the International Labour
Office after consultation with the Governments of the countries in which
the enquiry is to be made.
Items A 1 and B 2 to 6. — The Committee recommend that separate
particulars should be obtained relating to the numbers and wages of
(a) workers employed in the establishments and (b) outworkers (working
at home) to whom wages were paid in the above period by the establishments supplying information.
Item B 6. — The Committee recommend that after " allowances "
the following words should be added : " specifying the nature and amount
of these allowances, e.g. food, lodging, heating, garden, etc."
Item C 7. — The Committee suggest that this question should be
amended to read : " Aggregate number of hours actually worked by the
workpeople in the establishments covered (excluding out-workers), to
whom wages were paid in the pay-period specified."
Item C 8. — In order to avoid ambiguity, the Committee suggest
that the word " would " should be altered to " might " or " could ",
and that footnote (e) on page 4 should be amended to read as follows:
" By normal hours which might have been worked is meant the hours
during which the workers are at the disposal of the employer, as fixed
for the week or other pay-period in accordance with legislation or agreement or, in the absence of these, by the rules of the individual establish.ment. No account should, therefore, be taken of rest periods, mealtimes, or overtime.
1
Indicate, where possible, separate figures for cotton finishing and wool
finishing.
— 282 —
Distribution of numbers of workers according to their working hours. —
The Committee' recommend that the information collected under items
C 7 and C 8, regarding hours of labour, should be analysed to show the
numbers of workpeople employed in establishments in which (a) the
normal hours and (b) the actual hours of the establishments, in the
selected pay-period, fall within certain specified limits, e.g. 32 hours
or under, over 32 and not more than 40; over 40 and not more than 48;
over 48 and not more than 56 ; and over 56.
Additional questions. — The Committee recommend that questions
should be included asking for: (a) the numbers of workpeople included
in the figures given under A 1, who are employed in establishments or
departments working on systems of single shifts, two shifts, or more
than two shifts, respectively; (b) particulars as to whether (1) night
work and (2) overtime are paid at ordinary rates or at higher rates;
(c) particulars showing the extent to which wages are supplemented
by bonuses paid on retirement from the service of the employer, or by
other items not included in the figures supplied under items B 2 to B 6.
Selection of the establishments from which information is obtained. —
In order that the figures obtained shall be thoroughly representative,
the Committee considers it desirable that all establishments, including
not only large and medium establishments but also small establishments,
so far as they employ workpeople other than members of the family,
should be asked to supply information. If in any country it is found
necessary to restrict the enquiries to a selected sample of establishments,
particulars should be supplied to the International Labour Office
showing on what basis the establishments have been selected, and
indicating the extent to which they correspond, as regards geographical
distribution, size of the establishments, and machine equipment, etc.,
with the general range of textile establishments in the country covered.
R E P O R T OF T H E SUB-COMMITTEE ON
ECONOMIC STATISTICS
1. The Sub-Committee on Economic Statistics met on the
morning of Tuesday, 13 April 1937. At the suggestion of several
members, the Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the main Committee
served in the same capacity on the Sub-Committee. On the motion
of the British employers' representative, Mr. W. Ellison Chalmers
was selected as Reporter.
2. The Secretary-General of the Conference attended the sitting
and at the request of the Chairmen expressed his views as to the
functions of the Sub-Committee. He pointed out t h a t those who
had worked on the Textile Report had found that there were
serious gaps in the economic statistics relevant to the problems
with which the International Labour Office was concerned. It was
certainly within the competence of the Sub-Committee to consider
— 283 —
what these gaps were and how they might be filled, though he was
quite aware that it might not be possible to secure immediately
all the information that might be desired. He believed that the
Sub-Committee would be rendering an important service if it would
specify the points at which additional statistics were most urgently
required and if it would indicate for the information of the Governing
Body the method by which such information could best be compiled.
It would be for the Governing Body and the Office to consider how
and from what sources such information could best be obtained.
3. The discussion of the Sub-Committee fell into two main
parts. The first was devoted to the question of cost of production
figures and the second to the series of points enumerated in Section B
of the list submitted to the main Committee by the representative
of the Secretary-General. This list was as follows:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Statistics of mill consumption of textile raw materials;
Statistics of production of yarn;
Statistics of production of piece goods;
Statistics of total national and per capita consumption of
finished products;
(e) Statistics of the uses of textile products (industrial, agricultural, and personal).
4. The representative of the United States Government complimented the Office on the preparation of the very significant Report
but pointed out that its least satisfactory chapter was that dealing
with the cost of production of textile products. This had been
inevitable because adequate material is not at present available.
Nevertheless, he declared that such data were fundamental to
the enquiry, and although aware of the many difficulties involved,
he was convinced that it would be possible to secure useful information on the point. Given a readiness to co-operate in such an
enquiry, he was certain that progress would be made.
5. The United States employers' representative considered that
it was quite possible to secure such data, provided that the study
of production costs was in the first instance limited to a very few
typical items. He cited experience to show that investigations of
this type were of assistance to employers in reducing total production costs and at the same time in raising wage rates in the industry.
He stated that these have made clear that there was no necessary
incompatibility between these objectives.
— 284 —
6. The representative of the British workers supported this
view. The representative of the Canadian Government agreed
that such a study was possible and would be extremely useful. He
concurred in the recommendation that it be confined to a very
few items. The representatives of the British employers considered
that it would be useful to collect any relevant data on the industry
where that was possible. However, they were not ready to commit
British employers to report cost figures. They urged strongly
that the interests of the International Labour Office would best be
served if its enquiries were confined to the wages, hours and
employment questions upon which the Statistics Committee had
already agreed.
7. The United States employers' representative replied that it
was not intended that any questions concerning costs should be
added to the labour statistics questionnaire that had already been
approved or that cost data should be collected by the method of a
general questionnaire. In agreement with several other members
he declared that what was needed was an independent study, on a
voluntary basis, of a very limited number of items as manufactured
by individual firms in the various countries.
8. The Secretary-General referred to previous meetings of the
Textile Committee of the Governing Body of the International
Labour Office and recalled that it had been unable to agree upon
comparable specifications for such an investigation. He enquired
whether the Sub-Committee believed that such specifications could
now be agreed upon.
9. The United States Government representative fully accepted
the. suggestion that the investigation be confined to a very few
typical items and considered that these items could be specified
accurately enough so that producers in all countries could identify
them. Upon the request of the Chairman he proceeded to illustrate
by reference to the cotton goods industry and suggested that an
international enquiry could be based on four typical cotton cloths
with specifications approximately as follows:

10. These four cotton cloths (three made of short-staple cotton
and one of long-staple cotton) are standard in the United States.
Cloths of closely similar construction are doubtless made in every
important cotton-manufacturing country.
11. It was agreed to incorporate this suggestion in the report
of the Sub-Committee not as a definite proposal but as an illustration of the way in which such an enquiry might be organised
for this and other branches of the textile industry.
12. The United States Government representative pointed out
that it was fundamental to the success of such an enquiry that its
purpose be wholly honest and straightforward. It should be made
clear that the data for individual firms would never be revealed.
The United States employers' representative joined in this statement. The Secretary-General further pointed out that the data
would be collected in the first instance by competent and trustworthy national organisations and its identity would be not only
hidden but thoroughly lost by the time it was handled by an
international organisation.
13. The Japanese Government representative declared that his
Government, although not empowered to commit individual
employers to provide information on cost of production, was
sympathetic to the proposal and would be willing to participate
in an enquiry along the lines already specified.
14. The United States Government representative emphasised
the value of such an enquiry and declared that an accurate statement of these facts would be useful for each Government and for
each participant. He considered that the industry clearly needed
such enlightenment upon its fundamental competitive problems.
This opinion was supported by the United States employers'
representative, who considered that the study could well be
pursued among those who were ready to co-operate. He insisted
that no pressure would need to be applied since he was convinced
that its results would be useful to all who participated in it.
15. At the conclusion of this discussion the Sub-Committee noted
the dissent of the British employers' representatives, but recorded
its conviction that a study of international comparisons in the cost
of production of a limited number of typical textile products was
both feasible and desirable.
— 286 —
16. The discussion then turned to the questions enumerated
in paragraph 3.
(a) There was general agreement that mill consumption of textile
raw materials should be reported as outlined.
(b) With regard to the classification of mill production of yarns,
it was brought out t h a t the total make-up of British Census of
single cotton yarns is classified in the following ranges: up to 20,
over 20, and up to 40, over 40, and up to 56, over 56, and up to 80,
over 80, and up to 120 and over 120, while the United States Census
showed cotton yarns by ranges of 20s up to 120. After discussion
it was agreed that the minimum subdivision of cotton yarn numbers
should be in four groups: up to 40s, 41s to 80s, 81s to 120s, and
above 120s, while countries reporting more detailed figures should
be urged to continue such reports.
Respecting silk yarns, the Japanese Government representative
favoured the following as a minimum classification, yellow and
white, with three classifications according to denierage; 13/15,
20/22 and all other. It was noted that this classification conforms
to United States practice and was acceptable to the United States
Government and United States employers' representatives. Subsequently at the suggestion of the representative of the SecretaryGeneral the representative of the Japanese Government accepted
a classification distinguishing between thrown and spun silk.
Respecting rayon yarns, the United States Government representative pointed out that United States production centres on
150 denier and the Japanese on 120 denier. At his suggestion, the
Sub-Committee agreed to a classification showing deniers up to
100s, 120 denier, 150 denier, and all other.
Respecting woollen and worsted yarns, the British employers'
representative pointed out that for woollen yarns there had never
been one common counts standard but that worsted yarns fell
into definite categories. It was the consensus of opinion in the
Sub-Committee that a distinction between woollen and worsted was
sufficient for the time being, provided that wool tops should be
reported separately from wool yarns.
(c) The discussion oí production of piece goods, classified by fibres
used, indicated that some members of the Sub-Committee favoured
such classification and recognised t h a t the detail of production
statistics represented by many countries is now inadequate.
Discussion turned to the reporting of import and export data and
— 287 —
it was noted that these afford much better detail. The Mexican
Government representative urged that production, import and
export data be reported according to the metric system. The
United States Government representative pointed out that the
data could readily be converted from one form to another if both
area and weight were reported in any well-known system of measurement. He referred to the fact that the United States statistics
for production and imports include both weight and area but those
for exports cover area only. The Japanese employers' representative pointed out that his Government reports only area. The
British employers' representative pointed out that his Government
now reports linear yards, square yards and pounds in certain
statistics.
(d) The Sub-Committee agreed that reports on total and per
capita consumption of finished textiles were desirable.
(e) The Japanese employers' representative declared that
occasional studies of the various uses of textile products are highly
desirable, but agreed with other members of the Sub-Committee that
it was not practicable to recommend the continuous collection of
data on this point.
17. Another topic discussed was that of the terminology of reporting cotton consumption. Several members of the Sub-Committee
commended the national and international organisations on the
methods they employed in converting running bales to standard
bales. The United States Government representative expressed
the hope that statistics would ultimately be reported in weight.
18. The representative of the United States Government suggested that the Sub-Committee recommend that in the future the
collection of data on physical volume of production, on consumption
and on employment be obtained concurrently, as far as possible,
and from similar samples of the producing institutions. He pointed
out that in the United States and other countries it is customary
for certain Government departments to obtain statistics in particular fields or of particular character, and that this can continue,
but that it becomes increasingly desirable for the several Government departments in any one country to co-operate as regards the
time and coverage of their enquiries.
19. It was pointed out that this recommendation would not
require the incorporation of any additional questions in the labour
— 288 —
statistics questionnaire already agreed upon by the Sub-Committee.
It was also pointed out that the statistics of production and manhours of employment now available cannot readily be correlated,
and that time will be required to develop parallel classifications.
20. With this understanding the recommendation of the
United States Government representative was adopted by the
Sub-Committee.
