TWO VIOLATIONS
CHILD LABOR LAW

State Commissioner of Labor r. A.
Eddy, accompanied by Deputy Com
missioner H. NJ. Donnolly and
/ Woman Factory Inspector Minnie
Hanley. paid visit to Westbrook
yesterday with the object of bringing
to climax a case Of violation of the
child labor law upon which they had
been working for several days.
Not long since Commissioner Eddy
was in this section of the State on
tour of inspection and among the
youthful employees al the Dana warp
mills We're two lads who appeared TO
be under the legal age. Upon inquiry
Of the mill management it was shown
that the certificates presented by the
parents of the boys represented them
as all right. The law requires that
juveniles between the ages of fourteen
and sixteen must have certificates of
birth and no child less than fourteen
is permitted to labor in the mills.
Commissioner Eddy was suspicious
of the two certificates, and ascertain
ing the birthplace of the children in
Canada he CORES ponded with the par
ish priest who furnished copies of the
original birth records. These sustain
ed the Commissioners suspicious, and
at the same time showed the certii-
Gates under which the boys were
working TO be forgeries.
The two boys are Joseph Arthur
Gregorie. son of Wilfred Gregorie,
and Joseph Lamontagne. The inform
alton from Canada placed the age Of
the Gregorie boy al II years the 18th
of last February In the fictitious
certificate he is shown TO be seventeen
years. In the case of the Lamontagne
boy he will not be fourteen until the
23rd Of the present month, while the
false paper presented the mill man
agement certifies that he is Of legal
age.
The fathers Of the boys were placed
under arrest upon the arrival OF the
labor bureau official yesterday and
arraignnlent was before Judge Lyons.
In making his statement Commission
er Eddy said he did not wish any
account taken of the alleged forgery
and suggested that a nominal fine
would answer the purpose as we'll
as would more severe punishment.
The new state law becomes operative
next MpNOdN anu iit tSsIitS All
terested TO have fair opportunity
to comply with its provisions. Com
missioner Eddy wants il fully under
stood that the new child labor law is
to be strictly enforced. as he announc
ed in the columns Of The Argus a
few days since. These two cases at
Westhrook he hopes will serve as
convincing demonstration Of this fact.
They were Brought Of course under
the old statute.
Commissioner Eddy said there was
no fault 10 find with the mill man
agement in the matter as there was
every reason To believe the law had
been fully complied with. The re-
nsibility for violation Of the law
rested entirely upon the parents Of
the children. and they should appre-
ciate the fact that they were dealt
with with great consideration under
the circumstances.
Miss Hanleys services are OF pc
culiar value in affairs Of this sort, as
she is a good French scholar, and
translation Of that language is an i'm
portant feature of the working out of
the cases-Portland Argus.
