Charlotte Mills Closed for Cleaning and Repairs, July 6, 1923

Mills Closed Down for Week

Several mills are closed in Charlotte and vicinity this week, for the purpose of painting the building, cleaning and repairing the machinery, and making other necessary changes and repairs. Many of the workers are taking advantage of the closing to make visits to relatives and friends, while others are taking that fishing trip they have been planning ever since this time last year.

Many meetings of the workers are being held, too, and the work of organization is being given a great forward push, the week furnishing an ideal time to meet with and talk to the workers, and hundreds of new members are being added to the union rolls.
