NO CHILDREN LABOR IN SWEAT SHOPS IN STATE OF NEBRASKA "There are no children engaged in hazardous occupations and none em ployed in so-called sweat shops," says V. B. Kinney, state labor commis sioner, in his biennial report to the governor. "The department feels that with the co-operation of the various school districts in the state, the child labor law of Nebraska is well en forced." In this report, Mr. Kinney calls attention to the state law which pro vides that no child under 14 shall be employed during hours when pub lic schools are in session. In ten months this year he reports that school district certificates issued to permit children between 14 and 16 to work during school hours num bered 210. Seventy-four of them are for girls, of which 71 are from Om aha and three from various cities. The remaining number, 146, are boys. Of these, 119 are employed in Omaha and five in Lincoln. Kinney recites that the law reliev ing him of enforcing the workmen's compensation law, a court for that purpose having been created, permits the labor department to function in its proper field now that there is ample appropriation made for both the labor commissioner and the court. Four safety inspectors have been kept in the field for factory and con struction inspection and investigat ing and caring for complaints regard- j ing violations of the female labor law and the child labor law. Kinney reports the co-operation of the state and federal government in maintaining an employment service in the eastern part of the state, the federal ro-employment still function ing eisewnere. lie says me siaie em ployment sei vice is iinuei buijcius- on of the state labor commissioner.
