Halaman 7 - That the Secretary of Commerce and Labor be. and he is hereby, authorized and directed to investigate and report on the industrial, social, moral, educational, and physical condition of woman and child workers in the United States wherever employed, with special reference to their age, hours of labor, term of employment, health, illiteracy, sanitary and other conditions surrounding their occupation, and the means employed for the protection of their health, person, and morals.
Halaman 2 - January 29, 1907, which provided "that the Secretary of Commerce and Labor be, and he is hereby, authorized and directed to investigate and report on the industrial, social, moral, educational, and physical condition of woman and child workers in the United States wherever employed, with special reference to their age, hours of labor, term of employment, health, illiteracy, sanitary and other conditions surrounding their occupation, and the means employed for the protection of their health, person,...

Halaman 74 - Thus, the proportion of deaths from diarrhea, enteritis, and gastritis among the children whose mothers went to work (62.7 per cent) was over 80 per cent in excess of that of the children whose mothers remained at home (34.6 per cent). The real significance of this excess will not be fully realized until we recall...
Halaman 120 - River, as indicated by this one year's experience, no marked differences are discoverable between the children of mothers at home and those of mothers at work outside the home. A slightly larger per cent of stillbirths was reported for the mothers at home, but the per cent of the stillbirths which could be traced to the mother's work was the same for mothers at home and for mothers at work. The percentage of total deaths due to diseases of early infancy (indicating prematurity, immaturity, or defects)...
Halaman 110 - For the former class r>3 per cent of the children were reported as not well and strong at birth, and for the latter class 54.2 per cent. The significance in these figures appears to be not in the slight excess of children not well and strong at birth for the mothers at work, but in the fact that for the mothers at home the percentage is practically as high, plainly indicating that if there is an injurious effect of millwork there must also be in many of these cases an effect almost in the same degree...
Halaman 89 - Poverty whether it be the result of a low family income or of insufficient wages of a girl living by herself touches the question of immorality in many ways. It decides the girl's companionships, her amusements, her ability to gratify without danger her natural and reasonable tastes, her very capacity for resistance to temptation.
