D. Erklärung der Spitalfieldsfabrikanten. 695 len cloth, without taking or binding them apprentices, yet, as it hath been sommon for men of different occupations to bind their children apprentices to learn the Woollen Cloth Trade, a sever years’ servitude is absolutely necessary, in order to furnish good and skilful workmen, and to entitle them to follow the Woollen Cloth Trade. — - Resolved unanimously, That as certain individuals (actuated more by private interest than public good), made application to Parliament for the repeal of all restrietive laws, and are now opposing the regulations which the domestic manufacturer wishes to obtain, that they may have liberty to erect Factories at will, we ought immediately to send one or more de- legates to assist in giving such evidence before the Select Committee aforesaid, as may tend to counteract the design af such individuals. Resolved unanimously, That a committee of thirty-one Master Ma- aufacturers be immediately appointed for carrying these resolutions into effect. — Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this meeting be given to William Wilberforce Esqu. for his public approval of the domestic SyS- tem; and that a copy of the above resolutions be immediately printed and sent to him. — XD. Zu Seite 451, Anmerkung 1. Erklärung der Spitalfieldsfabrikanten. Second Renort on ribbon weavers, 1818. We, the undersigned silk manufacturers of London, are decidedly of apinion, that the Acts relating to the silk-trade of London, Middlesex ınd Westminster, called the Spitalfields Acts, have been productive of the following most important results viz., they prevent differences and dispu- tes between the silk manufacturer and the journeyman; put it out of the power of the journeyman to exact from the manufacturer & high rate of wages, when the trade happens to be in a flourishing state; secure to the journeyman a fair and equitable price for his labour and consequently prevent the manufacturer from taking advantage of his weaver, under a temporary depression of ihe trade; give encouragement to ingenuity, the weaver knowing that in proportion that he is skilful his earnings increase, {he skilful weaver working with greater facility than the ordinary hand, and consequently is rewarded according to his skill; prevent an exorbi- tant increase of the poor rates, keep the distriets in which the silk-trade is the staple manufacture in a state of quietude and repose and has effec- tually arrested the progress of pauperism. —
