the Old Dominion Glass Co. who
were charged with having violated
! the law. The case was presented ny

the Virginia Bureau Of Labor. Four
colored boys. three of whom were Is
wears of age and one IA. were the
witnesses. They testified that they
worked six days during the daytime
ami five days at night. Three boys
and three glass blowers constitute
what is known as a SHOP and
when the men work at night the
boys work at the same time. All OF
the boys testified that they helped
TO support their families and in two
OF the cases the parents were dead
and the boys had to depend upon
their work for their support, and at
the same time assist in taking care
of brothers and sisters.
Lorenzo Wolford, president Of the
company, declared that it was impos-
sible for the company co operate
: without working boys at night. AT
the present time. he said, the labor
laws were becoming so drastic that

number OF negro boys, between four
teen and eighteen years OF age. IL
had been demonstrated that these
boys will not. go TO school after they
