A Documentary
The Fabric - the Industry - Processes - Problems - Working Conditions - Indian Competition - the Future
Recorded in Dundee under the supervision of T. P. Dawson
Compiled by Alan Melville with the assistance of John R. Allan, C.A. Oakley, and Constance Charlton
Produced by Alan Melville

The industrial part of the programme was recorded at Messrs. Caird's Mills, one of the few big jute factories in Dundee still working.
Controversial and widely divergent views are put forward by such people as Dr. James A. Bowie, Principal of the Dundee School of Economics; the secretary of the Dundee Chamber of Commerce; a young man actively connected with the jute industry; one of the jute magnates; and the workmen themselves.

The programme has a particularly grim finale in which the wife of a jute workman tells exactly how she manages to keep her husband and two children on 18s. 5d. a week, which is all she has left out of the weekly pay envelope when rent, rates, and other essentials have been paid for.
