CHILD T0l[ERS' CRY
RINGS THROUGH LAND

II a series Of pamphlets issued by
the National Child Labor Committee,
reveals once more how we are stunt
Ing, manning and killing our child
rem. : For instance, in Indiana boys
under sixteen and girls under efgh-
teen may workl0 hours dolly and so
hours weekly y In factories, stores,
laundries, = bakeries, renovating
works, printing offices, mills. work
shops. mines and quarries. while in
establishments other than these
there Is. no limit as to, the work
hours. An elevator is the only
kind Of a dangerous machine that
children under sixteen are not allowed
to attend. i :. ~ -..: '.@.
There are seventy-five different
industries in Indiana that employ
child. labor. And in the factories
that employ children, in the mines,
ETC., proportionate1y four times as
many children as adults are injured
and MANNED for life.
In the blowing room of glass
factory in the southern part of the
state fifteen boys were counted. This
plant was surrounded by a. high
fence with a barbed wire on top; a
feature which was noticed in connec-
ton with q glass works in another
town. When asked about the pur-
pose of this fence, a manager said:
Boys will be boys. When they are
tired theysare apt to run off, especi-
ally at night. We keep a watchman
with g big bulldog. so the boys are
not likely tostsneak. OF course the
Waterman Keeps tramps out, too"
One of the public school principals
furnished list of fourteen boys who
were working at night. and going. to
school in the, daytime. These: lads
are employed for one trick lasting
four and a. half hours on four nights
of the. week, but, on Friday night
they work during two tricks until
3 or 4 O'clock in the morning, as
school is not in session on Saturday
and they can sleep late in the day.
But those who see only profits In
life. are naturally blind to condition
of these children. To-day mere sta
tistics are as appealing and heart
breaking as the voice of an impas-
stoned orator.
