The miners work ten hours a day under- ground und work seven days a week A8 in the custom in Chinese factories, the report says. According to the survey, boys of nine years of age are employed by thousands in various factories and in 40 poagee silk factories in Chefoo, 25,000 boys and young men work 13 hours a day for wages averaging six cents cach, Boys are working in such factorios because their parents can- not afford the necessary three cents per day to fefd them, the report con- tinues. They receive only their food and clothing. Small girls are likewise employed in the factories in countless numbers, many of them working among ma- chines unprovided with most elemen- tary safety devices, and frightful ac- cidents are by no means . rare, Dr. Eddy reports, The report states that factory man- agers openly boast that there are in China “no vexatious factory laws" providing for safety devices and the principles of workmen's compensation {8 unheard of. “In certain sections there are signs of unrest and disorder,”” says Dr, 12ddy’'s manuscript. “Scarcely a day passes without report of a strike in some department. The universal de- mand is for shorter hours, increased wages and the right to organize.” TOO MUCH SILVER. English Banks Embarrassed for Fa- cilitles to Handle Coin. London, Keb, 1@—London banks are overflowing with silver, so much so that they are embarrassed for facili- ties to handle the huge amounts which have Dbeen deposited with them. It is estimated.that there is twice as much silver.in circulation in England as is necessary, that one half of the 60,000,000° pounds worth of coined silver could be dispensed with. i It was needed during the war, but today the banks are at their wits end as to what to do with it. The vaults of mnay banks are filled, and it has been whispered that the dun- geons of the Tow® of London have been requisitioned to store the sur- plus metal REPORT BIG YIELD, London, Feb, 16.—The yield of po- tatoes’ all %over Lingland is estimated at 1 3-4 tons an-acre more than last year and more than a ton above the average of the ten years from 1912 to 1921.
