The New London Planters were a minor league baseball team based in New London, Connecticut , that entered the now defunct Connecticut League in 1913, which had recently renamed itself the Eastern Association with the arrival of teams outside of the state. After finishing one game under .500 in their first year, the Planters won the 1914 championship, compiling an 81 35 record. Following the disbandment of the Eastern Association after the season, a new league called the Eastern League was formed, which started play in 1916. This outfit, a Class B organization, featured teams from Connecticut to Maine, which is not to be confused with a top level league, the Eastern League, which had changed its name to the International League four years earlier. In the Eastern League s first season, New London and Portland proved to be the teams to beat. After a successful start, the Planters were overtaken by Portland in mid July, but later were able to regain the lead and eventually win the pennant by four games, finishing with an 86 34 record. ref http web.minorleaguebaseball.com milb history top100.jsp?idx 57 Minor League Baseball ref References references Category Defunct minor league baseball teams Category Baseball teams in Connecticut US baseball team stub ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 Rewa Planters Union was formed on 14 July 1943 at a meeting attended by 1500 cane farmers from Rewa Province , Fiji . The union was formed in reaction to the strike of cane farmers taking place in the Western Division, Fiji Western Division . The Government had appointed a commission to inquire into the farmers grievances and the Rewa farmers wanted to send a representative to it. The union was led by Ram Krishna Chaudhary with Faiz Mohammed as Secretary. From 1946, the union worked closely with a second union established in the Rewa cane growing area, the Southern Division Kisan Sangh under the leadership of Vishnu Deo . This coorporation was a far cry from the rivalry that existed between the Kisan Sangh and Maha Sangh , the two major unions in the Western Division. The Rewa Planters Union took an active role in the negotiations for the 1950 cane contract. With the closure of the Nausori sugar mill in 1959, the union ceased to exist.

Founded in 1895 , the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association HSPA was an unincorporated, voluntary organization of sugar plantation owners in the Hawaiian Islands . Its objective was to promote the mutual benefits of its members and the development of the sugar industry in the islands. It conducted scientific studies and gathered accurate records about the sugar industry. The HSPA practiced paternalistic management. Plantation owners introduced welfare programs, sometimes out of concern for the workers, but often designed to suit their economic ends. Threats, coercion, and divide and rule tactics were employed, particularly to keep the plantation workers ethnically segregated. The HSPA also actively campaigned to bring workers to Hawaii . For instance, they opened offices in Manila and Vigan , Ilocos Sur , to recruit Filipino workers and provide them free passage to Hawaii . Similarly, the HSPA became a powerful organization with tentacles reaching as far as Washington, D.C. , where it successfully lobbied for legislation and labour economics labor and immigration policies beneficial to the sugar industry of Hawaii . On March 24, 1934, the U.S. Congress passed the Tydings McDuffie Act Philippine Independence Act , which reclassified all Filipinos living in the United States as aliens and restricted entry of laborers from the Philippines to 50 per year.
