General Utility boy in Miller & Vidor Saw-mill. 14 years old (he said). Part of the time he throws slabs into the chute that has chain carrying them to the mill. I saw him helping a man around moving and unprotected machinery. Everything in the mill is unguarded. No place for boys. Said he works only on Saturday now, gets $1.00 a day. Made $25 a month here last summer. Location: Beaumont, Texas.
