What reading level is The Cotton Control Board book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The letter containing these demands was dated the Brd June 1918.
e 2 CHAPTER VII THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE BOARD The operatives on the manufacturing side needed no prompting from the spinners in demanding the retention of the rota system. The announcement of its abolition had come as a complete surprise ; stupefaction soon gave place to emphatic and indignant protest ; and a flood of resolutions poured in upon the Control Board from almost every trade union and from almost every district.
The la...bour members of the Board, who were placed in a very difficult position, pressed strongly for concessions. A concession of some kind was inevitable ; and the Board decided accord- ingly to reprieve the rota system for a further period of six weeks. The date of its abolition was thus postponed from the 8th June to 20th July.
This respite failed to stem the tide of agitation. Each day brought fresh evidence of the intensity of feeling which had been aroused. Its spontaneity was equally apparent. It became plain that it was beyond the power of the trade union leaders, even if they so desired, to reconcile their members to the change.
