CHILDREN IN INDUSTRY.
Inspector Says the Opportunities Now
Are Limited.

Opportunity for children under rs years
of age TO obtain positions has been greatly
reduced during the past year, according
to statement todayof Charles 4. Hagncr,
State child labor inspector.
This situation is due, said Mr.. Hagner
largely To the unwillingnesS of employers
IN industrial and manufacturing cstab-
hshmcnts to reduce the hours of their
working day for particular group In
order 10 comply with the provisions of the
Federal Child Labor Tax Law, This law
provides that eight hours shall constitute
a days work for children employed in
industrial establishments who are between
the ages of ii and is years. An excise tax
of 10 per cent of the net profits IS imposed
on concerns violating,
A number OF employers refuse TO give
employment 60 children under l6 wears
OF age, declaring that they deem it more
essential that the children remain in school
and take advantage of the opportunity
afforded them To acquire an education.
rather than enter the labor field at such
early ages.
The records in the office of the Labor
Commission of Delaware show the futility
of the average child between IL and is
years leaving school for the purpose Of
being employed 4 majority Of the chill
dren soon become dissatisfied with their
initial position, and then comes, too often,
the constant changing from one position
to another, without material benefit to
the child, until the 10th wear is reached
and they are exempt from the provisions
of the child labor law
Many Of the applicants for employ
ment certificates at IL wears are children
who show evidences OF being promising
students, but who become ohsessed with
the thought that they arc tired of school
life. -
Before permitting their children TO
leave sch DOL 10 enter the labor field, parents
should ascertain whether the opportunity
for advancement in the position avail
able is worth the sacrifice of givingu UP their
studies.
