Women Voters Push Stricter North Carolina Child Labor Laws
An educational leaflet prepared by the North Carolina League of Women Voters outlines three goals for 1930 to tighten child labor rules. They seek to end grade exemptions, set a 48 hour week and hour day for under 16, require sixth grade completion for 14 to 16 year olds, and ban work in hazardous jobs with a state commission power to expand the list. The effort aims at stronger laws rather than targeting mills, and urges protections for children during summer months.
