tax law- of 1919, by the Supreme
Court decision of last May, may
he measured by the fact that only
13 states meet in all particulars
the standards of the federal law.
Elpht states have the general
broarl provisions, but make some
specific exemption.
Twenty-seven stites are below
the standards In one or more of

Irked unlimited hours, and

But not only children of school

If they are too young to go to
school they can do a man’s work

One report' front Texas tells us
that a 5-year-old has picked a bale

One of the most pernicious
forms of unregulated child labor,
aggravated because of conceal
