(_b_) The life indoors, and frequently with the combination of insufficient air and space, produces a condition of malnutrition and deficient general resistance.

(_c_) The family life is interfered with by the mothers, whose primary duty is the care of home and children, working in factories, and the too frequent conversion of the house into a factory.

(_d_) The influence of factory life is towards a loss of moral stamina rendering more easy of operation the conditions of alcoholism and general immorality.

How great has been this increase in industrialism, fostered as it has been by conditions both natural and artificially created by unwise legislation, is shown in the figures from the last census.

The number of factory operatives increased forty per cent between 1899 and 1909 and the total population of the country in the period between 1900 and 1910 increased twenty per cent.
