Reprint of an address by Rev. Neal L. Anderson given at the first annual meeting of the National Child Labor Committee in 1905. It surveys child labor laws in the Southern states, covering age limits, proof of age, hours, education requirements and enforcement, with attention to the cotton mills of the Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama. It also gives the author's account of a visit to two Alabama mills, discusses obstacles to effective legislation, and ends with practical recommendations.
