Talk:Lowell system

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] German vs. Irish immigrants?

At the very end of the article, it says, "mill owners began to seek cheaper labor in German immigrants. By the 1850s, the Lowell system had been abandoned." However, I have a textbook that says it was Irish immigrants. So I'll change this until someone finds a more reliable/specific statement. Sp3z1aL 02:51, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
