sion to Investigate women's wages
and conditions of labor in the State.
"How much does it cost a working
woman to live in health and COM

many women workers get wages
enough to live in health?" How
many get enough to Live In filth, ano
how many do not?" These are few
of the questions to which the COM
mission will endeavor to supply an
answer, as they are fundamental In

South Carolina Senator Says Govern

that Senator E. D. Smith, who start
ed the campaign in the senate for
more accurate cotton estimate fol-
lowing the high estimate of several
weeks ago by the United States de-
partment of agriculture, upon arriv-
ing in Columbia expressed the opin-
ion that the estimate was too high.
He called attention to the fact that
California is contained in the esti-
mate, when little cotton is produc-
ed in that State. He will continue
his fight for accurate estimates by
the national department of agricul-
ture. He said that he would, at the
next session of the senate, introduce
a measure calling for the names of
the agents of the agricultural de-
partment furnishing the estimates.
He smiled when shown the govern
ment report.
Secretary Reid, of the South Caro-
lima State Farmers Union, express
ed the opinion that the governments
estimate on the cotton crop for
South Carolina is erroneous. He es-
timated the crop from reports re-
ceived from all counties at SO per
cent. for this State. The government
made South Carolina "A per cent.
