future viewed with alarm. Per Press Association. HAMILTON, June 25.

It was stated that stocks were accumulating at the mills to such an extent that a curtailment of the output was imperative. In view of the large amount of unemployment, the mills were reluctant to shorten hands, but a majority of the mills would have to work shorter hours for some time to come.
