Abstract
The subject of this Thesis is the comparison
of economic conditions prevailing in the woollen Industry
in Scotland and the Panjab. the cottage industry has
been dealt with in greater detail throughout the Thesis,
as it holds such an important position in the industrial
economy of the Panj qb. Also though at present it employs
such a small proportion of Scotoh labour and tie various
operations in the manufacture of woollens are more of
historical interest,there is a decided tendency toward
the encouragement of cottage industries. The factory
industry though so important in the Scottish industrial
economy has received only secondary attention ( where
it bears on the cottage industry ) in the Thesis.
