REPORTS OF LABOR AGENTS
 SUPPRESSED BY SECRETARY
Because of Revelations Concerning
 Private Lives of Some People.

Washington, Jan. 19.-That Secretary Nagel of the department of commerce and labor has suppressed much of the reports of agents of the labor bureau because of their revelations concerning the private lives of people in North Carolina and other southern states was asserted in the senate today by Sena- tor Overman.
 He stated that some of the reports were so revolting in character that, if printed, the law prohibiting the circu- lation of obscene literature would pre- hibit their transmission through the mails.
 The statement followed an inquiry by Senator Beveridge as to the publi- cation of the results of Investigations into the employment of women and children made a few years ago by. the bureau of labor.
 It was at this juncture that Mir. Overman made his statement concern ing the course of Secretary Nagel. q heard of the vile character of some of these reports" he said, land went to MT. Nage1 about them. He told me that the revelations were such that he had felt called upon to suppress them It would seem that some of the agents had gone into the mountains and had taken it upon themselves to investigate the private affairs of the people when the law authorized an inquiry only into labor conditions"
 The inquiry in question was made al the cost of $300,000.
