Statement From Com

Especial TO The Times-Dispatch.l

Raleigh, N. O.. January D--After
lengthy conference. the North Carolina Child

people relative TO the contest that has arisen
between the committee and certain mill men
involving the proposed compromise in child
labor legislation. reached by the committee
and the mill men months ago. to stand for
abolition OF night work for children under six
teen and women and fer factory inspection
The committee declares that the compromise
was agreed 10 in the hope that 10 would make
for peace and harmony. although IL did not
go as far as IL felt advanced legislation should
go. And now. IL Il with genuine dissppoint-
ment that the committee learns that the North
Carolina Cotton Manufacturers Association
has refused 20 join In this reasonable compro-
mise. We regret. too. the statement says.
that advocates OF such legislation have been
described as 'agitators and .meddlers' and
even slanderers of worthy men engaged in
manufacturing In the State
Then the statement proceeds to declare the
child labor committee In sympathy with the
manufacturing interests and In vicious
sense agftators. Insisting that all manufac-
turers who have met with IL have been con
WINGED OF its friendliness. Insistence is made
that the farmers. the teachers, the mothers.

OF manufacturers neglect and spurn the rea-
sonable and moderate proposals rendered In =

insist on bringing the power OF their great
wealth and political influence 70 check aud de-
feat the efforts OF the committee. we warn

world have brought about out of considers
