And yet in our excitement over
this overshadowing qtuMion of the
convict lease and its abuses we should
not forget that aco-rding to the pre
cut child labor law of lieorgia chil
dren as young as ten years of age
are allowed to work twelve hours a
day. The code of lieorgia limits the
hours of employment for children
that work. except iu coltou and Wtt.l
en mills, where the requirement is
an eleven hour day for children with
the privilege of arranging a sixty-six-hour
week to suit the employer.
The sixty-six hour wivk means a
twelve hour day for the first five
working days of the week, with a
half holiday on Saturday. It is also
a fact that lieorgia and North Caro
lina are the only two Mates m the
I nion which allow children t work
a twelve-hour day and that .North
Carolina lias a thirteen -year age
limit, while (leorgia and South Caro
lina are the only two Slates which
allow children as voting as ten years
of age to lie employed in factories,
and .South Carolina has a sixty-hour
week. So that ( leorgia stands atone
in allowing a b n year old child b
work a sixty-six-hour week in facto
ries. This is also an indictment U
