NEW YORK, Dec 20-Evils in the system of States licensing that per- mits manufacturing in tciicments, were testified today before the Leg- islative State Factorv Commission by Lillian B. Wald, head of the ‘Ieury Street Settlement, who producsd l>h0t0graphs' showing conditions. There were one to forty families in each of the 13,000 tenements in Man- hattan and the Bronx engaged in manufacturing under State licenses, she said.
“These people, I think,” declared
Miss Wald, "operate to depreciate wages in factories. These tenement workers are parastic and should be abolished. Many children have to work to support. idle parents. 'flip manufactursr enjoys a saving by sending work to the tenements, rc- gardlesss of the fact that it kczps children from school and destroys possible future good citizens.
