LEAGUE TO HELP
NEEDY FAMILIES
Will Give Support to Families
Whose Children Must
A Work

A conference was held in tho Of
fee Of Marvel and Marvel in the du-
Pont building yesterday between the
Consumers League and Factory In
spector James Kitchen. Mr.. Kitchen
reported that he had investigated sew
eral supposed violations Of the factory
law. He said he had found some in
stances where children at work did not
have the required certificates. In
only a few instances did he come
across children under the age who
were at work. In these cases the
children were the only ones I'm the
family who were working.
The Consumers League decided that
while a widow and four or five child
rem should not be deprived OF the
earnings of a boy or girl. the factory
laws should not be violated. In or
der to assist the mother in such in
stances the Consumers League decided
that hereafter where a child of such a
family is found at work that the Fac
tory Inspector shall report the matter
at once to the league. The league will
then pay the childs mother a sum
equal TO the wages earned by the child
until the child passes the afe limit.
