CHILD employees
INCREASE, REPORT
(Rv Associated PresS)

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Increase
in the number of child employees in
the United States has been almost ex-
actly proportionate to the increase in
total population in the last eight years
according to the United States depart
ment of labor. Statistics compiled by
the Childrens bureau show that 1874
minors took out permits in IL repre-
sentative cities to go to work in 1920.
This compares with 67,169 in 1913, an
increase of 13 per cent. The pOpula-
tion of the II cities increased IA per
cent in the same period, the bureau
estimated.
More children reviewed permits to
work in 1920 than in any year since
1913, except 1916 when war production
was at its height. The increase last
year was ascribed to the rise in the
cost of living and to labor shortage.
