"This study concerns the examination of the historical importance and achievements of a small cotton mill located in the agrarian Texas community of Itasca, Texas. Newspaper clippings and numerous interviews with former mill employees and Itasca citizens supplied factual material pertaining to the Itasca mill; however, company records provided the basic research material for this paper... The company offices have since been destroyed, and most of the records are now in the Southwest Collection at Texas Tech University, Lubbock, Texas...In the final chapter, the author concludes that this mill, like numerous other southern mills, fell under the influence of northern companies because of undercapitalization which severely limited available operating capital. Even though the mill eventually prospered, it never managed to free itself from the influence of northern commission companies. In the final analysis, the Itasca company proved to be different from other cotton duck mills in the South in its development of a line of unique decorative fabrics sold by mail as well as through thirteen company-owned stores."-- leaf 1.

A indústria têxtil, nesse período, empregava considerável mão de obra de mulheres e menores, por considerá-los possuidora de características pertinentes para o trato com a matéria-prima e o maquinário, como delicadeza, paciência, flexibilidade, pequenez, etc. No entanto, por meio de discursos de militantes operários, percebemos que alguns trabalhadores se sentiam ameaçados e incomodados pela presença da força de trabalho feminina e infantil por acreditarem que eles/as rebaixavam os salários e eram passivos/as diante de suas explorações, o que enfraqueceria os movimentos reivindicativos. Procurando problematizar tal perspectiva, essa pesquisa busca retratar as mulheres e os menores como sujeitos de sua própria história, conscientes das explorações a que estavam submetidos/as e agentes ativos nas greves e protestos por melhores condições de vida e trabalho. Para os patrões, a mão de obra feminina e infantil era interessante e foram implantados serviços de benefícios sociais na tentativa de manter as mulheres nas fábricas depois do casamento e os menores mesmo contra as investidas do poder público. A divisão sexual do trabalho e a disciplina fabril demarcaram espaços, comportamentos e estabeleceram uma hierarquia pautada em noções de “qualificação”. Contudo, os/as operários/as procuraram resistir perante as formas de controle e lutaram por suas demandas dentro e fora das fábricas. / This study tries to focus on gender relations and age issues among workers who worked in the main textile mills of the Federal District between 1891 and 1930. The textile industry, in this period, employed considerable labor of women and children, considering them as possessing important characteristicsto dealing with the raw material and machinery, such as delicacy, patience, flexibility, smallness, etc. However, through the speeches of militant workers, we noticed that some workers felt threatened and troubled by the presence of the female and child labor force because they believed that they lowered wages and were passive before their exploitations, which would weaken the protest movements. Looking to problematize this perspective, this research seeks to portray women and children as subjects of their own history, aware of the explorations to which they were subjected and active agents in strikes and protests for better living and working conditions. For the bosses, female and child labor was interesting and they deployed social services in an attempt to keep women in factories after marriage and children even against the public power. The sexual division of labor and the factory discipline demarcated spaces, behaviors and established a hierarchy based on notions of "qualification". However, the workers sought to resist before forms of control and fought for their demands inside and outside the factories.
