    Documents 1, 2, and 6 all show the increased usage of machines in Japanese and Indian cotton factories. The chart in Document 1 that details the production of cotton yarn and cloth in India shows how India utilized more machines to create more yarn and cloth in 1914 than in 1884. The chart shows how machine spun yarn was surpassing the amount of hand-woven yarn, as well as how the amount of machine-made cloth is quickly catching the amount of hand-woven cloth, which shows the mechanization of India’s cotton industry. This document is reliable because it is data collected from British colonial officials who would have no benefit of altering the data in any way. The Indian economist Radhakamal Mukerjee who wrote “The Foundation of Indian Economics” (1916) in Document 6 talks of how handloom cloth weavers cannot compete with the machines in the factories and are rapidly declining. This shows India’s step towards a more mechanized cloth industry. The document is not completely reliable because as an economist, the author may have overemphasized the decline of India’s handloom weavers to show economic growth. Comparable to India’s increased production of machine spun yarn is Japan’s outlined by the chart in document 2. Japan’s incredulous increase in machine spun yarn from five million pounds in 1884 to 666 in 1914 dwarfs India’s growth that was 151 million pounds in 1884 to only 652 in 1914. Document two may not be completely reliable because the data may have been altered to make Japan’s Industry is improving just a bit faster than India’s.…

    One should take into account the point of view of this source because it was gathered by British Colonial authorities. The source seems reliable since they are talking about India’s statistics and not their own. Also the data looks reasonable and not over exaggerated. The source of this document most likely composed this chart to help show how the use of machines helped increase Indian textiles. Japan’s textile chart (Doc 2) combined both hand and machine spun statistics. Even though they were combined there was still a rapid increase of production of cotton yarn. (Doc 6) was written by and Indian economist and it talks about how there has been a rapid decline of hand woven cloth makers and they can’t compete with machine woven cloth. All these documents help illustrate how India and Japan’s textile industries are similar due to the use of…

    Another difference of India was that they not only made yarn but also produced cloth. This was because throughout India there seemed to be a competition of the machine manufactures which cause local textiles of making their manufactures a huge success through shareholders, investors, and financiers (Doc.6).Also, the production of cotton yarn and cloth in India through the years 1884 to 1914 seemed to increase except for their hand spun yarn that went from one-hundred fifty millions of pounds to ninety millions of pounds. For the machine spun yarn it began with one-hundred fifty-one million of pounds increasing to six-hundred fifty-two million of pounds. Furthermore, for Hand-woven cloth one thousand millions of yards started off increasing to one thousand four hundred five millions of yards. As for, machine-made cloth, it began with two hundred thirty-eight increasing to one thousand one hundred forty (Doc.1). In Japan, they had a lower production of yarn and they did not make cotton cloth just simply yarn. In the year 1884, five millions of pounds were made both hand spun and machine spun. In the year 1894, they had quickly increase to one hundred seventeen millions of pounds. Last, through to the year 1914, they had made six hundred sixty-six millions of pounds of…

    Cotton Gin History

    In the late 1700’s many people were trying to figure out a way to remove the seeds from cotton because it was very time consuming and “labor was a slow [and] expensive process” (Shectman 65). In the 1740’s the people of India had created a machine called the churka (a sankrit word for a jerking motion) that separated the cotton seeds from the clean fiber. “The cotton was fed through the dual rollers, which grabbed the fiber tightly and pinched free the seeds. The seeds were trapped by long groves in the rollers and deposited onto the floor, while the now-clean fiber exited the rollers” (Shectman 65). With this new invention women were able to spin their own yarn and cloth. In 1793 a spin-off the churka was created and renamed the cotton gin, which soon became a revolutionary…

    The textile industry was the very first industry to be advanced. Before the revolution, cloth was typically woven at home, which would take long hours a day to do. With the creation of these new inventions, cloth was made much faster which led to a boost in merchants' profits. Industrial Revolution Research explains the textile industry during the industrial revolution, “The demand for cloth continued to rise, so merchants had to be in competition with others for their supplies to make it. This caused a problem for the consumers because the products were now at a much higher cost. The best solution was to try to use machinery, which was cheaper to sell then products that were made by hand (because they took a long time to create), therefore…
