12 of full time apprentice-one-loom weavers in Bombay. There were no special features regarding the widths of the looms allotted to, or the character of production turned out by, these one-loom weavers. The looms were of the same widths as those normally allotted to two-loom weavers and the qualities of cloth turned out were also similar. Enquiries made from the offices of the Agents of the respective mills in Bombay elicited the reply that many weavers in Sholapur are so inefficient that it is impossible to give them more than ane loom. 114.

No Tarwallas are employed in Ahmedabad. Ring Spinning is the one process in a cotton mill which offers employment to workers of both sexes in all age groups.
