tory laws which will do away with
the employment of babies in the can
neries of the State and with the work
ing of women in iron works and with
the general abuses in connection with
the employment of women and chill

ate and chairman of the commission
which has been investigating factory
conditions throughout the state, de-
clares that his committee will have
it's report ready soon after the Legis-
lature meets on January 1, and that
it will offer important remedial legis-
lation. Information has been sworn
to that children from ten to sixteen
years Of age have been worked in
the can4eries from 4 in the morning
until 8 to 10 at Night, and that little
babies as young as five years have
been worked in shipping beans"
Legislation In prospect will eliminate
the employment Of children OF tender

BILE to accede to the demands of the

that the arbitration board and the
employees might nave an opportunity
of inspecting for themselves the books
of the company. Like all public serv-
ice corporations, the Chicago trac-
ton companies have no desire to make
public the devious transactions which
take place in the conduct of large
public service corporation. The com,
pany has refused to produce its
books, and whether President Mahon
will be able to secure ruling from
the arbitration board requiring the
company to produce it's documentary
evidence is problematical. If the COM
pany maintains its position not to pro-
duce its books, it is apparent that the
statement which the representatives
have made cannot be. corroborated by
a reference, to the accounts OF the
company.
