Noon-hour, #Indian Head Mills. All are workers. The very youngest refused to be photo'd. The #Supt. seemed worried about my photographing the workers. He said, "Now we observe the child labor law thoroughly, but there are lots of persons in the #North who like nothing better than a chance to rap at #theSouthernCottonMills." Location: #Cordova, #Alabama.
