HANWAY - - ~ Editor J.B. GRIFFITH Associate Editor CHILD LABOR IS. BIG IN HUNGARY Children. Not Yet 7 Years Old Are Working From Morning to Night in Munition Factories LONDON, January 29.—Statistics just published by the official Labor bu- reau, says a Budapest correspondent, of the Post, show that, while before, the war the ratio of female labor to! male labor was 16 per cent. It has now risen to 89 per cent. Among the) registered workers 8000 were under 12 years of age, and in the provincial munition factories more than 4000 children under 8 years of age have been putting in twelve hours a day) for many months past. The Nepszava, commenting on these figures, asserts that many thousands of still younger children, infants not yet 7 years old, are working hard from! morning to night in munition factories on all sorts of odd jobs. ‘Under such conditions,’’ says the writer, ‘‘it is un-| necessary to quote the passage in the} statistical report which deals with the mortality among the workers and their children, all of whom, while inade- quately fed, have to work under un- healthy conditions for twelve hours} a day.” The rate of mortality among the laboring classes in Hungary, which was already high in peace time, has assumed higher proportions since the outbreak of the war, and women and children have been specially affected, | The average duration of life among workingmén in Hungary in 1913 was) 41 years, 5 months and 12 days. In 1914 it sank to 41 years 4 months and 3 days, and in 1915 to 40 years and 18 da For working women the correspond- ing figures were: In 1918, 36 years, 8 months and 21 days; in 1914, 83 years 83 months and 10 day 30 years, 10 months and 14 ¢ ! the decline is going on at an acceler- ating rate owing to the ever increas- ing scarcity of foodstuffs and the con- stant tendency to lengthen the hours of labor. Before the war the average lifetime of women suffering from con- sumption was 28 years and 3 months; vow it is 25 years and 8 months As a natural consequence of this terrible state of affairs, the birth rate has de-| clined to the extent of 4 per cent,' as compared with 1911.
