ployed w. M. Howard of Augusta to

wood of Atlanta to represent Man.
ming and brief recess was taken
in order that the state mi ght obtain
the names.
1t was held that jury should not
be selected until the "volunteer
prosecutors" were known because OF
the possibility Of juror being re-
lative of any of them.
Howard on reconvening Of the
court said Governor Dorsey told him
that Rev. C. B. Wilmer and the Rev.
M. Ashby Jones, pastors, had au-
thorized him to employ Howard, the
state having no funds to pay for such
extra counsel.
Underwood said w. Woods White
on behalf of a "group of citizens at
large" had employed him. He was
asked if any Of the citizens were
members of the association for the
advancement of the colored people
and replied that they were no 80 far
as he knew.
He was unable to reach White on
the telephone during recess and did
not get the full list of contributors
to the fund, but named some Of them.

the stations to be worth no more and

CHILD LABOR
EVIL GREATEST
IN COUNTRY

NEW YORK. March 30.--"There
Is more child labor in rural than In
urban America, and some of II is
Just as bad as in the Cities" says
owen II. Lovejoy. general secretary
OF the National Child Labor Commit
tee. This statement appears in The
American Child, the curren, issue OF
which is devoted to child labor In
agriculture. "The idylli conception
of country life stands in the way OF
popular appreciation even OF the ex-
st,nce of rural child labor. Long ago
we standardized our ideas OF farm
life as wholly delectable and hence
we assume that because the million
and half children gainfully cm-
ployed' in agriculture are in the
great outdoors their condition is he
cessarily fortunate. Hundreds CT
thousands OF these young farm labor
ers under sixteen, II should be borne
in mind, are working for persons 9TH
er than their parents Moreover the
children listed by the census as gain
fully employed on farms represent
but a fraction OF the number unfor-
tunately affected by farm work. par
ticularly as regards school attend
ance.
The conspicuous feature OF rursl
child labor is, indeed, its interference
with school attendance. The average
rural school term in the United States
is 40 days, while the city term H.
$50 days. OF every hundred children
enrolled in city schools the daily at
tendance is so, while of every hun
dred enrolled in rural schools only
6s are in daily attendance. So that
for every hundred days OF schooling
received by the average city child,
the average country child gct' only
65. Studies made by the National
Child Labor Committee show tha,
child labor on farms and ranches
cause as much absence from school
as illness, bad weather, bad r)ads,
distance Of home from school. and
indifference OF parents or children all
combined-and sometimes even ex-
ceeds the absences caused by all these
other factors.
"The enforcement OF compulsory
attendance laws in rural school dis
tricts is n6toriously poor throughout
the land. No one section of the coun-
try can justly point the finger NJ
scorn at any other section because OF
its sin in this respect, for ones sin
Is as great as another's. No law re-
stricts or regulates farm work by
children; the only laws that relate
to the subject in any way are che
com pulscry school attendance acts.
and they apply only in school Lours'
and are but little respected"
